My last
lovely day here at the farm. And this is the first time that I will have been
here a full week. Bliss. And it looks like it may actually be reasonably nice
today. Yesterday it poured and was cold and rather miserable. I still managed
to card, it was not too windy, but it was disturbing to be on the porch and see
the really bad leak that is there in the porch ceiling. Not sure how in hell we
will be able to afford to repair that.
I have
done a really good bout of carding. All
the fuschia stuff is done, about half by itself, half blended with angora. I did
about 12 ounces of brown/reddish stuff. Yesterday I played a bit and carded up
some odd bits and pieces. I may even go ahead and spin those today, since it is
just 1-2 ounces of each. I think I may also do some sorting – decide on some
dyed stuff that has been kicking around that is really ugly, or too full of hay
bits and should be tossed. This in preparation for when I get home and the
first big project is to sort and tidy and rearrange the sun room.
Last night
I transferred all the undone things from lists in my old journal into lists in
my new journal. Wow. I now have 3 pages of lists! There are things that carried
over from list to list over the entire year last year. Sad. I wonder if they
will ever get done, or if I should give up on them in some way.
This has
truly been such a lovely week. All alone suits me just so very fine. It is so
relaxing for me to be alone. So reassuring, so refreshing, so renewing.
Well. I
guess I will do my stretches, didn’t do them yesterday, see what there is left
to eat for breakfast (not much, getting down to the wire), and start looking
through that pile of fiber. Maybe I will not card at all today. Or maybe I will
do more of the tidbit kind of things, those are satisfying.
