It has been a rainy day. Actually, it has been a rainy week. So rainy that if I go to work in my garden I will be stuck in the mud to my knees. This has happened in the past so I know I am not exaggerating.
I thought I might get a chance to build a bed today. New mattress have been ordered which probably should have been done years ago. I would like to be off the floor and a bed would actually help. But the desert walnut we have is not quite long enough and the hardwood wood store closes much too early on a Saturday so I am a bit stuck on that project.
I have been working on a sweater instead. Part of the reason I was to late to get to the wood store was that the sweater has grabbed me. The feel of it. The colors of it. And I want to wear it today. But there is two issues with that. I am spinning all the yarn for the sweater, which makes the process longer. And to wear it today, it would have to be finished! Not a work in progress.
I am hoping it will be done for my gallivanting in May. I am definitely going to the Oregon coast. Maybe the mountain. Having a new sweater would be lovely. My thought now is that I will put a movie or an audible book on, makes some tea, and work on my sweater while I wait for my garden to dry. If I get to restless, I will walk over to a store and buy clothesline and nylon thread to make baskets that I can hold spinning and crocheting in. They are definitely a in thing to make but I can see such uses!
