stellar_muddleSo, started on the eyelets for the side laces on the bliaut. Only 64 needed in total.
6 down.
Still avoiding Z's cold - not certain how though. Occasional sore throat in evening but nothing on the croakyness scale Z has been managing. Possibly being evil and sleeping in helps.
Cell phone had ~$50 (or $30, I forget) put on to start it when I got in Oct last year. It is finally down to under $5 and is whinging for feeding. There is a reason we haven't bothered with a land line.
Was evil and skipped dance this evening. Been a little too lazy recently and still haven't gotten back to swimming.
Gumeracha Medieval Fair (we went Sun) was fun but we wouldn't have lasted 2 days. Usual ranges of scary and cool stuff. NVG had a good setup with some very nice Osberg tripods and cauldrons, tents and wooden stuff. Archery display was very impressive with some very cool targets set up. The Baptists using the figure of John Wycliffe as a conversion figure and excuse for handing out pamphlets had an interesting idea but missed in using a mob with polarfleece monastic robes (especially given the actual historical figure's rialling against the monastries). The vikings were restrained and didn't slaughter the monks... Then Z got talking to these people and drooled a bit over timber frames and a woodworking stool (have pictures).
Giving baking soda instead of shampoo a go. Will see how that does. Slightly greasier after first wash but early days yet.
Think that about covers things. Soon, more Buffy and eyelets.
Edit: total 10 eyelets down by time off to bed. Season finales tend to slow the sewing rate down. Farscape for tomorrow.
