Good day...

[ianuk]

Well despite the cooler issues the day was good. Mel and I got the reed sleyed on the loom and then headed out to Thyra's party. Had a very nice time and I got to swim a lot and torture Linnet and Mason in the pool. You have never seen two kids scared to learn to swim as these two. Drama Llama and Dirt Shark were in full force. Mark got video...it will be good black mail for later in their lives.

Hung out for a while and then got home and we started on running the warp through the heddles. We got about 6inches of warp done and that was all we had brains for. Its tiring cause you are sitting at a weird position and you have to make sure you've got things in order. It is nice that we are able to work together since I can't quite fathom how you'd warp this loom by yourself. lissamc you are quite a weaver...wow!

I worked on more embroidery and I got all of the white completed on the 3rd one. Just a few more details to do and it will be done. Course that is still about 4 hours of work but its doable in between things tomorrow.

Hope to get up early enough to bike to meet folks for breakfast. Hope, I'm in enough shape to bike home though we shall see. I'm up for a 8 mile two parter...should be good.

So, I know its lame but I'm heading to bed....very busy but accomplished day and I got more than one work out today...so, body is weary.

I learned to weave out of the book titled, oddly enough, "Learning to Weave" by Debbie Redding/Debbie Chandler. I've got an extra copy, if you don't have one yet.

I recommend quiet music, incense, and no cats.

That is the book we are using.
