I was pretty sick over the new year, but feeling almost back to baseline. Don't know what it was - but then, I do work in a hospital. I did have a flu shot this year. It felt flu-ey, but not exactly, and there were no congestion problems - mostly gastric, but with high fever and aching joints that felt like they'd been smashed. Ugh. I managed to sleep through most of it...
...and then woke up and it was a different year!
It's a bit warmer out, and we've been getting a plenitude of much-needed and longed-for rain, and snow in the Sierra. Not out of the drought woods yet, but that's a start. Folsom Lake is said to have risen 28 feet in the past month!
Still have the small sample warp on the AVL. Think I'll weave on it tonight. I'd forgotten how long it takes to finish something that's 80 picks per inch!
I ordered some more 60/2 with Tien from the supplier in the UK. I like their quality of their silk much better than that of the silk yarns I'd purchased from That Other Place. Also, the price was right, even with ordering all the way from the UK.
Depending on the weather Saturday, Tien and I might do some dyeing in the yard down there - I'm looking forward to my first-ever painted warp!!
