Confessions On A Lazy Monday

How did it get to be Monday so quickly! It seems like I just picked up the girls from school of Friday.  But here it is Monday and a brighter sunnier day you couldn't have. Teapot is home again and I have to say that I am glad beyond all reasoning. Yesterday was indeed a strange day with the Daughters and I leaving for FSJ at 4:15 in the afternoon. We had dinner at a restaurant and  fooled away some time at Walmart which you can always count on being open on Sunday and then we went to the airport where in the waiting room, there are lovely black leather chairs which I promptly perched in and whiled away a half hour waiting for Teapot's flight playing games on the iPhone... while the Daughters did the same only on their iPads. Next thing you know Teapot's flight was on the tarmac and we were waiting for him to disembark... like I said time just seemed to drift away from us and suddenly we were getting ready for bed and opening our eyes to a mid winter Monday morning.

And what a morning it was... I love January warm ups. The sun shone, the sun warmed, the sun cheered and now the sun is setting.

I only spun a little today and I was supposed to work on the book part of my homework and get some of these samples written up and in my book. Instead, I baked.... I baked bread... and Zucchini Quiche.  Then I made Turkey soup and then I sat down... so actually it wasn't such a lazy day after all....it just felt like it. The Daughters and I watched the whole Vicar of Dibly series on T.V. so that may have been the reason for it feeling like a lazy Sunday rather than a lazy Monday.  Poor Teapot had to work... but the girls stayed home with me.

I have been making progress on the level 3 homework. I did finish the blue silk sample for the needle work that I have to produce for my level 3 books and I spun the second single of the Muga silk for the woven sample so far everything is looking hunky dory.... (that means just grand)!  I need to weave and I need to get that embroidery finished. So that will be what I tackle tomorrow. Then a day of bookwork before I make more spinning progress.

I haven't been feeling great the last few weeks and I have been getting very tired. Not sure why and hopefully it won't last, but have been taking time for me to rest when I need it so I guess that has been the reason for the slow down on the homework... still progress is progress. I refuse to sweat over it!
Tomorrow is Tuesday and I have a friend coming for a spinning day if she remembers... : ) She reads this.... so maybe this will act as a reminder.

I will try to get some pictures up here in the next few days of samples that I have finished. It's been a dull few days so I guess it is a dull bit of reading.  Hopefully I can think of something more interesting to write about soon.
