Restraint. Not one of my strong points.

Well. I’m getting a new wheel.

I called Cal at [Shuttleworks](http://www.shuttleworks.com/) yesterday afternoon and placed my order for the Schacht Matchless DT. I am completely without patience and lucky for me, Cal had a brand new box in the shop that he shipped out immediately. So the new wheel will be arriving on Monday before noon!

I can’t wait! But no, I can wait. _See? I’m waiting, adult-style._

    The Matchless DT was high on my list too. But the price was higher than I wanted to go. I was able to trade my Elizabeth for a used Joy at the time anyway….

    Congratulations on the new wheel!!

    Wow, you finally did it! Congrats! What made you decide on the Matchless? We just got an order in for the Suzie Pro. It’s the special edition with painted flowers on the green disc. Awesome!

    Is it here now? How about now? Now? See, I’m not patient either. I blame it on the internet.

    Hey! Shuttleworks! I live about fifteen minutes away from there – I’m not a spinner but Cal’s one of only a couple places that stocks Brown Sheep in Alberta. He’s such a sweetheart, no?

what do you think?
