and life goes on...

with such a momentous occassion as a new birth, other parts of one's life come to a standstill. i'm self-employed (with my spinning and knitting), so even when my attention is elsewhere, i need to be keeping tabs on my "business". that's what yesterday morning was about. a craft council board meeting (about changes to next year's craft fair - some exciting ideas) - then making the rounds of my st. john's shops to check on inventory and get new orders in place. i kept my etsy shop open while i've been away. last week i sold a scarflette and yesterday 2 skeins of yarn to a woman in amsterdam! it's good to know that i can maintain the "shop" even when i'm away from hom. i'm anxious now to get home and restock it.
it's a tired family now. finn is doing great but it's the frequent night-time feedings that are beginning to wear the rest of us down...

it's a miserable snowy day here. so be glad you're in the city. at least there are diversions. I feel guilty not walking Abigal, but the past two days have been miserable.
Can't wait for your return.

Enjoy your time with the new baby, and give your daughter some time to recover. There will be a new baby in my family in May, I can hardly wait!
