June - The day I hear my new spinning wheel is ready I learn about a new online course from FiberyGoodness, S3: Sketch Spin Scribe. So of course I sign up. There there was the lovely Sat spent driving on back road of Wisconsin to pick up the wheel from Spry Whimsy, an awesome fiber studion in Stoughton, WI, check it out you won’t regret it. And in case one internet class wasn’t enough I decided that I had to try this one two, Dye Secrets with Natalie Redding to learn about dyeing fiber. Both are self paced which is good, as then I have a chance at finishing. 
July - This year I got to see not one but two city firework displays. One friday from a field by the Wheeling airport, and one saturday at a friends house that included beercan chicken and firespinning in the backyard before hand. I used my favorite staff for the fire spinning. And while way out of practice, I managed not to burn myself or fall in a whole so quite the success. Same weekend I set up the new spinning wheel and learn about the Tour De Fleece, a fiber event that follows the Tour de Force bike competition, only instead of spinning bike tires the idea is to challange yourself spinning fiber. There are no rules only guidelines "The concept is simple: Challenge Yourself. Spin. Have fun.” I could work with this. I set a modest goal: spin a little bit every day I could. 
Then finally it arrived my new car. So shinny and new. So purple. So mine. And jsut in time for birthday shenanigans with Cole. Went straing from the dealer to pick her up, then headed downtown for Dinner and then Neo for dancing. Got lucky that first night driving it and didn’t have to do actual parallel parking. A week later I still love the car, even though the same tire has had two flats now. Second time at the dealer, and after much complaining, the new tire patch is holding and we are rolling.
