one month countdown

wow, what a crazy week. yesterday and today I was up in Estes Park volunteering for the fleece show. I was there yesterday from 8am-7pm and today from 7am until 5pm, on my feet the whole time. (did ya notice yestrerday's blog was at 6am?) It was really amazing to see all the fleeces (161 total) and to be with the judge as she went through them all. When I came home yesterday, I was just bouncing and had a hard time going to sleep. I learned so much about what to look for and what is good and what is not good. Super cool.

Getting up at 5:15am wasn't really all that bad, and it RAINED! Hooray for moisture :) My main job today was as the scribe for the judge, so I really got to be her right-hand girl. Next time, I'm bringing up my good calculator...I hate using the dinky ones that you have to really punch to get the numbers to register.

I'm really glad I volunteered, and I'd like to do it again next year. Maybe next time I'll even have some fleeces entered in the show.

But now I'm home, and starting to crash...and only one month until my b'day when I'll be 29.
