No words today. Mum utilized my entire morning, and when we finally got home I barely had two hours before turning around and leave again for choir practice. Naturally, no translating was done in those two hours and very little crafting, too. *is really pissed-off*

But you had choir, at least!

Which was the one saving grace of the whole frigging day!

But you did singing, and daughtering. It will all fit in eventually!

I don't mind daughtering. I love Mum to pieces and I'm grateful that I can do things for her. It's just so that it was such a beautiful, sunny day, and I work so much better by natural light...

Some days are like that! Hopefully tomorrow will bring enough time to do the things you want to do!

In the end, I started sewing by lamplight at 11pm, until my eyes rolled out of my head, but couldn't quite catch up with the time I lost. *sigh*

But at least you had choir to compensate for that.

Indeed. I think I'd turn strong, raving mad without all that singing on some days.

A momentous day, because I finished the knitting - pictures once it's not a secret any more! I didn't really mean to do any more of it tonight, but once I was at the point where I only had the long cast off to do I decided that I might as well get it done.

I really did mean to try and sort out Nelson tonight, but between concentration on knitting and general exhaustion I didn't have any brainpower left, and went on with the walk report that started at the Rest and Be Thankful instead. 340 words.

The shade didn't last long, though, and I was soon out onto bare and dusty forestry track - an attractive scene with Beinn Bheula ahead, but thirsty work

Great for finishing the knitting!

Last night I dreamt that I was trying to find the North West Passage by following the instructions in a knitting pattern. I think this may imply Too Much Lace, as well as too much Arctic reading!

Hilarious! Don't you just love waking up from a crazy dream...

Posted by

Wow, what a crazy dream!

Sorry that I went MIA, but I have been very sick (flu) since Sunday and am still not feeling all that great now. I managed to write a little, but not much. My advice, get a flu shot. I did and can't even imagine what this would have been like without it.

Posted by

Oh no! Flu is nasty - I'm glad you're feeling a bit better again.

Posted by

Thank you! I am pretty much back to normal, but took another day to recover. It was just safer in the long run.

Posted by

A wise decision.

Posted by

Thanks. It's not always my strongest suit.

Posted by

I hope you're feeling better soon. So sorry about the flu, in spite of the flu shot.
You're probably champing at the bit to get back into action but please please don't overdo it.
Take care!

Thanks! I am doing my best to just rest and not plunge back into things. My fever is nearly gone and I really slept well last night, so I'm feeling almost human. I stayed home today despite wanting to go to work (to save my last sick day).
