Been handling lots and lots of paperwork this week and wednesday was full of it and back to back to back meetings. I got out of the last meeting so I could work on paperwork but sheesh. After lunch I was very, very tired and kinda spacey. The feeling continued until later in the evening (after sugar consumption) but I didn't nap or get lazy when I got home. I got things picked up somewhat in the living room, research stacked in neat piles on the card table, piles and piles of paperwork put away/thrown out, got all of the thank yous mailed out and also got elisha's prezzie mailed out too. Mingo and I got the kitchen set and then I finally felt okay enough to start working on tambour.

I used the new embroidery hoop that ari lent me and it made the fabric taunt as is required and I figured out I need to be tambouring towards me and then the loops don't tangle. I got all the way around the sun I'm working on and then around a few rays before I called it a night but it looks pretty good. Still slower than I can chain stitch with a needle but I'll see how fast I can get by the end of the sampler. I also need to see if I can line things up as tight as I do normally with chain stitch by hand. We shall see.

I had to keep moving the knee....its tight but not hurty tight by the end of the day if that makes sense. I think I will bike today but it will probably be short and not with the crewe. I also want to see if I can get a re-fit today on the bike, need to call the shop and see if I can do that after work. I will probably not suit completely up for VH. Probably do slow work and pell work.

Finished Hard Eight by Janet Evanovich. Very funny. The characters are so out there and at the same time so normal it hurts my sides at times. The series is pure and utter fluff but that is what I want right now. Next on the docket: Brimstone Kiss by Carole Nelson Douglas, also looks fluffy but Carole can make things way different we shall see.

So for the count since I'm being lame:

6. Seven Up by Janet Evanovich
7. Hard Eight by Janet Evanovich
