Yes, Sabrina, it...Thanks everyone for the comments. Yes, Sabrina, it is a real good feeling to see the kids on a good path. I am very proud of both our boys. I'm relieved that the youngest has found a job in this tough economy so he can repay his student loans AND start paying rent to his older brother. It was SO nice of Alex to let his little brother have a room at his place after he bought a house last summer. <br /><br />The fleece I sent to Zeilinger's was from 2009, I had it all washed last spring but finding the money to have it processed was another matter. Fortunately my census check helped to make it happen finally, along with Shachah's shots.<br /><br />I hope to dive in and start skirting my 2010 fleeces this morning. I can't wait to see how long and crimpy they actually are and to examine the colors more closely. I registered two as shaela. I hope that was correct. <br /><br />Congrats to Terri and all of you with lambs on the ground already. :-)Becky Utechthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08809607308191360481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30562945.post-27074226747792892212010-04-04T01:29:46.685-05:002010-04-04T01:29:46.685-05:00I'm so happy for your son!

The first was quite an experience which I will blog about.

Yes, the discount exactly covered the shipping of about $50.

Good for him!<br /><br />I wish I could afford to send all my fleeces in for processing. I've still got them sitting around in bags all over my basement. I really should try marketing them!<br /><br />I wish you and your family a wonderful Easter!Nancy K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06061265740359266798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30562945.post-27016509386223589112010-04-03T09:43:18.935-05:002010-04-03T09:43:18.935-05:00Congratulations to your son.

Isn't it such a blessing to see your children on a good path?<br /><br />I really wanted to take advantage of that discount too, but I hadn't sheared yet and we don't have space to hold over fleeces. Looks like I'll be selling mostly raw fleece again. SOMEday I'll get some top made. I just loved the stuff you showed me when I visited.<br /><br />All the best to you as you start your lambing.<br />And Happy Easter!Sabrina Wille Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204840198185030162noreply@blogger.com
