UPDATES!!!

More new photos added today!

Here is a new picture of the silkworms, taken last night. They are growing so fast now that they are noticibly bigger when I get home at night than they were in the morning when I left! And they are eating so much that I have spent a whole hour each of the past couple of nights filling a plastic grocery bag with leaves . . . Its a good thing the moths have lost the ability to fly because if they got loose they could destroy every Mulberry tree for miles at the rate they eat! I can’t wait to see how the silk turns out! Oh and I found out that each female moth lays between 200 - 500 eggs, so it won’t take many to resupply for next year . . .

We had a function at work yesterday and I didn’t get home until much later than ususal, then I spent an hour picking leaves, 45 min. brushing out Blossom, and some time doing some other cleaning projects . . . and then time taking photos and transferring them to CD and then it was pretty much time for bed, so I only got about 2 rows done on the tank top yesterday.

Tonight I hope to go home for dinner with my husband (haven’t seen him for a few days due to our opposite schedules) and then head over to the Spinning group. I think I’ll bring the rest of the blue tweedy merino and see if I can get that spun tonight . . . .

This is what I have done so far of it

Of course if I’m still as tired by tonight as I’m feeling right now there is always the chance that I won’t make it there at all . . . though I really do want to go . . . .we shall have to wait and see.
