This is my first ebay purchase. I'm a little slow, I know. Ebay rocks. I just finished my first roll of film. It was so fun! I haven't even seen the photos yet and it was so fun.
In other outdated hobby news, I have been thinking about purchasing a spinning wheel. I went over to Mind's Eye Yarns today to ask about spinning classes. She just let me test out her wheels right there. Awesome. She had 3 floor models. The first I tried was the very pretty Ashford Joy. My first reaction upon trying out the spinning was, "wow this is easy" and about 30 seconds later "ok I'm buying one". Then I tried the Schacht Ladybug. It is cute in a way I don't care for. The spinning on this one was just was not working for me either. The wheel kept on getting stuck and going the wrong way. Lucy was like, this is not your wheel, moving on. Then it was the Ashford Traditional. This one was beautiful and spun faster than the others. I did like it but not as much as the Joy. So, as soon as I have hundreds of dollars that I feel I can blow on a hobby, I'll be paying Lucy a visit. :) Oh, did I mention the Joy folds up for easy transport? So you can go play with all your spinning friends. Cool.
Finally, I'd like to note that I come by the anachronistic hobbies honestly. My uncle builds harpsichords. I blame my grandfather. Thanks, Paw-paw, this is fun.
