hurrah for the yellow hobbit and debka-notion

There was a super thunderstorm last night, and today my Dell AC adaptor is dead. It was plugged into a board which theoretically has a surge protector, but I guess it isn't very good; I can't think of anything else which would explain why yesterday it was working and today it is not. Better than having the actual computer fried, anyway.

I've sent off for a new one ($11 on eBay); we'll see.

All this is a long-winded way of explaining that access to my Dell, with its ancient and tottering battery, is limited at the moment, so I haven't got the Yellow Hobbit's email address handy. Yellow Hobbit sent me a mighty box of glorious yarn, so with that and the stash gleanings of debka-notion and Mrs shirei-shibolim, I'm so well-equipped! It's quite quite marvellous. Thank you!

So I am using my dear little Eee PC to blog this and read the internets while having post-Shabbat tea and ice-cream, and then I am going to listen to the BBC and crochet. Niceness.

Yay! I'm glad it reached you safely. I should have put in a note explaining what things were. The light blue and pink-orange ones are homespun (by me) merino wool. The ones with Chinese on the labels are random Chinese wool, the ribbon yarn is pretty self explanatory...not sure what else I put in. But be sure to post pictures of the shiny things you make out of it.

So glad the stuff I gave you has company and is ready to go to good use. (I just got a big box of stuff of my own, so I share your enthusiasm, if not currently the availability of time to do anything with it.) I look forward to hearing what you make.

Sorry, that was me- I forgot that I'm not on my home computer, therefore I am not logged in here.

I have another ball of that same yarn if you're interested.
