Ahh its spreading. The IT. You know the It. They are canceling schools all over the place. stores are sold out. We are trying to figure out when is the best time to do food shopping. Tomorrow or the weekend? How much should we do. We did just do shopping on the first. But you can never have too much food with a family of 14. We are running low on eggs and milk and cereal and a dozen other daily uses. Out totally of some other things. Its going to be busy no matter what, Will the weekend be worse?? On the plus side, My kids dont go to school to get shut down. And we are other then shopping, fairly removed from people other then ourselves. My husband works with half a dozen people. My mom is the same. My sister is a groomer and sees maybe 5 people a day. Grandpa however takes long walks and bus rides…
I donno… Im not too worried yet. But i am concerned about foodstuffs.

My pregnant rabbit decided to dig a burrow in the yard… A very deep one. She disappears entirely inside it now. Bun you are NOT having your babies in the yard. I appreciate her instincts though. Strong. Shes my evil bun so i had to fight her out of her house and got a bad bite for my trouble. Then she spent 3 hours digging a burrow. She was gentle and calm after that. Till i got her back to her cage then she started fighting to get back in it. Shes cage aggressive. But shes also pregnant. So i dont want to change her cages till her big hutch is built. Then she can go in the big one and stay there. Swapping cages is one way to keep cage aggression down. Its happened a few times in my french over the years. Though this one is unrelated… Im hoping after babies she calms down.

I carded two more bats today. They are awesome. one is 5-10 shades of brown. With silk, bamboo, angelina, stellina, alpacaand more. All mixed to this really cool brown with shots of dark brown and gold streaks. I hope it spins great. The other is teals browns, gold, orange and LOTS of glitter :D I love those tones together too. Same mix of wools and fibers. Just colored instead of naturals.

Ill spin them. Ive been spinning merino from australia. Its so very fine. But i carded 2 bats in the lanolin and washed the third. I do NOT like spinning the lanolin free one. Im worried its going to be crappy when washed now lol. guess ill see in the end…

Anyway guess ill be headed out. Lots of drama with the sister again and its just taking it all out of me.
