Electrical work

8 am
    At around 8:15 the electrician is coming to look at the basement and the huge list that K came up with this morning. I wonder how much all this will cost….. then at 9 I need to leave so that I have some time before lecture to get my brain around what I am doing this afternoon. Which leaves not really very much time to write since I need to feed buns, meditate? get lunch together. I am not bringing goodies to lab today. Part of me thought oh I’ll just whip up some brownies – I made some yesterday for G’s lab – but I don’t think he was that thrilled with it, and I don’t want to feel like I HAVE to do that every single week. So they will have to manage. It might be a short lab, except that I want to work on the excel graphing with them, so I think it will end up going all the way. The group yesterday was looking really glazed by 3:50 while G was going over graphing, brownies would help keep them awake… if I had plain chocolate I would maybe bring that.
    I thought I would get all the dyeing finished and cleaned up yesterday, but instead it took all the time I was home to try to exhaust the dye and I still didn’t finish. I left one pot to cool last night. If it is not completely exhausted, well too bad, I think I will toss what is left. And I set one pan in my cardboard solar cooker – I understand it will be pretty hot and sunny today so I have hopes for that. I still want to finish spinning the skeins of fawn angora I started so they will be available for the Fiber Twist on Sat. I’ll have to get a move on, still over an ounce to spin and the next several days are very busy.
