(6/29/16) Still learning...
Imagine Shepherdess Jen, sitting down with her morning cup of coffee, thinking about what to tell you all about this time...a heavy sigh emits from deep within...she takes another drink of coffee...
Have you ever had days where you feel like you ROCK...where you make the right decisions...where everything you touch turns to gold? Yeah, that's not what I'll be writing about today.

(6/7/16) Tour de Fleece is COMING SOON!
June 7th, 2016
You may be thinking, "She titled her blog post incorrectly...doesn't she mean Tour de France????" Of course, Tour de France is coming up, and there is much excitement in the air already for the famous race that will be happening for the 103rd time this year! But from a spinner's point of view, it's the coinciding spinning event, the Tour de Fleece, that has me the most excited!
(5/26/16) FOs with a small side of What's OTN&W!
May 26th, 2016
OY! Another month nearly gone...BUT I do have a few FOs to share this time around...and, of course, pictures of the Trio!!!
My favorite finished object at this point is...drum roll, please...my Icelandic sweater!!!!! To quote Monty Python, there was much rejoicing...and sharing of pictures on Ravelry, Instagram, and Facebook! This was my first stranded colorwork sweater and my first experience with steeking, and both went just swimmingly!
(5/3/16) Laughter is the Best Medicine
May 3rd, 2016
I've been pondering various topics for this post, and I keep going back to the funny things that happen around here involving the Trio...then I wonder if I will be able to adequately write about these occurrences to where it's funny for my readers. Sometimes you just "had to be there," you know? Well, what's life without a little risk, am I right? So let me share a few of the funnier tales from Blaine Fleece & Fiber!
(4/15/16) BFF is One-Year-Old Today!
April 15th, 2016
One year ago today, Blaine Fleece & Fiber was born - Black Velvet, Mikey, and Panda Bear were sheared at Lee's place, then brought home to Blaine Road and their new family!
(4/9/16) What's OTN&W for April?
April 9th, 2016
Well, we all know that March got away from me, so now that it's been 2 months since my first What's On the Needles and Wheels post, I actually have lots of progress and new projects to share!
(4/3/16) A Guest Blogger tells us All About Lambs
April 3rd, 2016
I'm pleased to welcome our guest blogger (and all-around awesome daughter), Elise, to Sauðr eða Urðr! Elise has been blogging on Tumblr for about two years, and recently she was working on a couple of posts having to do with Daisy's lambs and our sheep, so I invited her to share her observations and thoughts with my readers! This post is all about our visit to Lee's farm to meet Daisy and her beautiful twin girls - I hope you enjoy it!

(2/28/16) Hooves, Baas, La-La-La
February 28th, 2016
I'm apparently channeling my inner child today - as I was considering a title for this post, and thinking about the topic for said post, I suddenly remembered the delightful Sandra Boynton book, Moo, Baa, La La La:
When my children were little, we were HUGE fans of the Sandra Boynton board books, and I have to admit that my husband and I can still recite about 90% of The Going To Bed Book! Thank you to Sandra Boynton for years of awesome stories!! But I digress...as I'm sure you're used to by now!
(2/17/16) The Trio agrees with Phil...spring is coming!
February 17th, 2016
Ah yes...the many signs of spring...birds in the yard, soaking up the sunshine while finding their wormy dinners...the sprinkle of green across the wheat fields, letting us know that there will be crops in the fall...and Sheep Lumps in the backyard looking like woolly boulders:
