Yesterday was cold and wet - we had hail; some places had so much it looked like snow. The skylights in the barn and milk room are ruined...looks like I'll be up on the roof later fixing it. :sigh:

I was stupid....when Herself and I were winding on this warp, I thought it was kinda long. I had warped what I thought was 6 yards..but it sure did seem longer. Yesterday, I pulled the reel back out to wind my next warp (I'm on towel #3 - halfway according to my original calculations)...and decided to actually *measure* the reel before I started. Um. *I* thought it was a 1-yard reel...nope. It's a 2-yard. So, my 6 yard warp? Is actually *12* yards. Glad I had already decided that most of this warp went to the give-away pile...:lol: (The next warp is actually 6 yards. And I marked the reel, so I won't forget.)

SG bought me an auxiliary cord for my iPad/Phone - now I can listen to the podcasts in the Jeep without burning them to CD. (The radio has an aux. jack - makes it nice!)

Need to go weave a bit...I have a LONG way to go on this current warp! :lol:

For your language learning files - I have no idea of the quality, but the price makes it worth looking at (aka free).

My library just bought access to mango languages - it's free, for library users (at least thus far). Has a big selection of languages to work with. Not sure if it's my cup of tea, since I am not an aural learner - but if you are, this could be a very large cookie. Def going to have 8yo (who is aural) check it out, and might have 12yo take a look 'round. :) Has koine Greek, and Latin as well as Hebrew any number of modern languages.

Worth seeing if your library has this. (My library allows internet access with your library card, so I'm doing this at home).

I have - NONE of the local libraries subscribe, nor are they interested. You learn Spanish or....Spanish here...so "extra" languages aren't needed. :sigh:
