Today was a good day. The alpaca fiesta was small, only a few breeders but the animals were cute and soft. The suri alpaca fiber felt like silk. Too bad they didn't have any for sale.

I bought some alpaca and took lots of photos but I'm tired and I just wanted to let you all know that Em's surgery is scheduled for sometime between 10 and 11:30 tomorrow morning. As soon as it's over and we get home, I'll let you know how it went. We expect everything to go well. It's a long surgery- over 6 hours. I have a new lace project that will require concentration. My blue lace is at the stage when there isn't much thought involved so I'll take that too. And of course a pair of socks. I'll be prepared for whatever I need at the time.

And I'll take a new book I bought today. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith. I've only read a little but it's entertaining. I am an Austen fan and P&P is my favorite, with Sense and Sensibility a close second and this is hilarious. Elizabeth Bennet is a helluva zombie killer!

Anyway, that's the game plan for tomorrow. I'll check in when it's over. Thanks for all the good wishes and prayers. I'm taking them with me and they'll keep me warm. And I'll have all of you there to keep me company.

See you tomorrow.
