Prezzies!

 

Twill tea towel woven by Sheila Carey

Now that the mail is flowing again, we have been receiving some.  This morning this arrived.  Who better to appreciate a hand woven textile than another weaver?!

It is already living in the tea towel drawer in the kitchen - spouse knew exactly where it belonged.

More appointments today.  This week was 'catch up' week after the holiday where several of my 'regular' self care appointments got shuffled.  I'm actually finding that clumping them together is working.  Only one week has my weaving schedule trampled in the furor of getting up 'early', getting to town, waiting in waiting rooms, etc.  I may start cramming more of my appointments into the same week instead of spreading them out.

On a brighter note (literally!) the sun came out today.  It meant sunglasses were required, and filling the windscreen fluids because contrarily, the sun didn't come out on a cold day but a warm one and the roads were wet, wet, wet.  It was dirty, messy and felt more like March than January.  

OTOH, it was warm enough that I stood and waited outside for my chauffeur to pick me up from the second appointment of the day, caught a few rays, maybe generated a bit of Vit. D.  

We got home early enough there was still time to get to the loom so I went down and did one session.  I think I will do a second yet this afternoon, then maybe have a nap.  I don't know if it is still my brain needing megawatts of energy to pour into healing, or the new pain meds (advertised to cause fatigue, as most of them do) that makes me so tired.  But I didn't get to the loom at all yesterday and I feel I really need to generate some endorphins today.  

I'm trying something a little different with the current warp, based on some of the explorations for the next article I did for WEFT.  That's the thing with experimenting - it leads to further exploration.  :)

What can I say?  (YaY!)
