I have acquired a floor loom and I finally have it warped!
It came with no cables and I replaced cords and ties. My husband even made a crank! I used the only blog post I could find to learn how to direct warp. I went slowly and made many mistakes. Fortunately they were all fixable.
I LOVE it!

Fresh off the loom just in time for spring!
Supposed to be thistles, but look like tulips.

I did it! I kicked my butt to get started on the next project.
I was concerned that the pattern yard was not thick enough. I was right. But at least it’s enough of a difference.
They are supposed to be thistles, but they look more like tulips. Oh, well.

As a fed married to a fed, I’m not ok these days. I’m struggling to find motivation to do anything outside of work.
But I did just finish my next holiday table runner. No, it’s not Irish, but it’s green, so I’m using it for St Paddy’s Day.
Hoping to get my next one warped soon, but again…struggle…

Is it weird that I look forward to my morning coffee when I go to bed?

Next project underway. Wishing I picked a lighter blue as it’s not distinguishable from the green in this setting. Hoping it sines out a bit after it’s washed. Ah, still learning.

Finished my Valentine’s table runner. I decided to do holiday themed table runners to build up my skill. I definitely need help with the edges. 😜

We have had this conspiracy that the waste mgmt driver intentionally dumps the big front bin into the back of the truck in front of our house, leaving a mess of rubbish for us. Today we left out no bins for pick up.He still stopped in front of our house to dump the big bin into the back of the truck

I have a package that shipped from IL on Dec 11, been sitting in Indianapolis since Dec 13.
Frustration grows over package delays at Indianapolis USPS hub
Customers say their deliveries are getting stuck in Indianapolis, or even arriving in the city only to be sent elsewhere again.

I need one of these that says, “Just 2 more switchbacks.”
This is what some well meaning hikers said on a hike in Colorado. It was definitely not “just two more switchbacks” and continues to be an inside joke between my husband and me on rugged hikes.

Why did they do this to me???

Oh, IKEA. How many ways can an order be screwed up? Staff placed our cabinet order in store as observed. Staff printed out the order because for some strange reason, what is entered in the software seems to magically change. We had to remove 7 of this item for which we only wanted one,

Our Thanksgiving plans are dissolving. Parents are sick so we had to cancel with them. Friends are sick so they had to cancel. Good thing I masked at my conference so I can have a quiet dinner with my husband and way too much food.
