The Olympics have officially begun. I thoroughly enjoyed the ceremonies on TV with the exception that the kidlets were not particularly quiet. They are in bed now……. yeah!!! I think I am headed there soon, too.
With the opening ceremonies over, I have just spent the better part of the evening starting my Ravelympics project. Yes, when I came home tonight, my wheel was empty. The fibre was sitting in my spinning chair and Bugsie was just waiting.

As it was time, I used the scale and started dividing up the fibre, trying to get close to having equal halves as much as possible. It always takes a bit of juggling.

The lighting in my house does not make for great evening photographs but you get the idea. This is gorgeous fluffiness. Over the cours eof the evening, I have spun about 1/2 of the first bobbin. I’m not sure how far I’ll get this weekend with the spinning. It’s a busy day tomorrow with our regular activities plus hubby and I are going out for a bit of shopping and a nice Valentine’s dinner. The way the day tomorrow is shaping up, I won’t be home much. Unfortunately, I also had to bring home some work so I will have to do some of that on Sunday. Ideally, I’d like to be done with the spinning by about next Wednesday, ready to cast on for the knitting portion of the project around Thursday or so.
Let the Games begin!!!
