That’s about the extent of my vocabulary right now.
So yesterday was a rough day in lab, and I was still sore from my weekend workout, so I figured I would burn one of my non-gym days and go home and rest and maybe clean a little.
Yeah. That so didn’t happen.
I get home and the landlord’s downstairs (the neighbors moved out), and it turns out he wants to put in new pipes to my apartment… this week. Now, this *needs* to get done, because the water pressure to my apartment is… suck. So, no resting, instead I spent 4 hours straight cleaning. The cleaning makes it to my living room and then stops. Hopefully the landlord and plumber will not have come today and I can get the living room done tonight. Which will be fun, because… well it’s going to take some moving of furniture, and I haven’t bought the shelf and bins I need to organize the fiber. Grah. Stupid money.
I got a bit more dyeing done.
The soft green of faded, just cut hay, wilting and drying in the sun…
New Hay – 6oz – Combed Corriedale Top
The dark, dappled green of a secret shaded evergreen grove, a cool and secluded place to hide from the world, and create your own…
Secret Glade – 1oz x 4 Combed Tusssah Silk Top
and, for the literary, something by Oscar Wilde. A drop of heartsblood…
The Nightengale and the Rose – 1oz – Combed Cashmere/Tussah Silk Top
Also, because I was bored and a few people have shown interest…
Gnomespun shirts, mugs, and what spawned getting off my butt to do it, something that occurred to me yesterday…
If life were a shawl, mine would be a Clapotis
That’s it for today.
