Tuesday I ended up 'vegging out'.  We ate leftovers, watched recorded stuff and napped.  I sought out every Facebook comment I could find re Sash.  There were some wonderful, beautiful comments all through the day.  Wednesday I stirred myself up and went out to get a haircut before going to Wednesday's social night and supper.  Thursday was another coasting day (I have been piecing 1.25 strips at the sewing table)... but Friday we pulled things together and got busy in the garage again.  I put up the sunshade and tables while Leofwyna sawed down an  inconvenient post and dug up a bush that's been in the way.

Wednesday I spent the afternoon out and continued to out social moot with supper following.   At the sewing table the wonky stars top is coming together.

Wednesday Leofwyna and I went together to the largess A&S where we didn't accomplish anything at all despite it being scheduled more than a month ago.  Thursday.  Thursday and I'm still adding logs to the last sett which uses cornerstones, and I started two new setts trying to use up the 1.25 strips in basket weave blocks.

Tuesday and Wednesday since I was up late I woke late too.  I don't like this development but can't seem to correct it and Leofwyna is no help; she's doing it too.  Anyway, lots of "logs" are getting added to setts (counting the top that is completed, there are seven setts) and the available strips are satisfyingly disappearing from the drawers.  I went to moot alone as Leofwyna is busy with her travel preperations.

Wednesday was another pretty day and I should have gotten some yardwork done, however I didn't accomplish any of that. I went to check out some storm windows on Freecycle and thought I'd take at least a couple but couldn't fit them in the car and had to leave them behind.  I took some of my salsa and some chips to share at Walt Library where we were only a few this week. 

Wednesday I headed over to water the potato bed in the community garden.  I need to go back soon to cut back the weeds around the edges where the volunteer mower won't chance hitting a vegetable.  The Gentleman-tiller was there pulling hose and I got the chance to thank him for tilling for me this spring.  I must remember to give him a bag of potatoes when I'm harvesting them.  But today, on the chance it might actually rain, I went back home to mow the lawn.  It was sprinkling, but it just wouldn't rain hard enough to make me quit so I got two-thirds done before I ran out of time.  Tonight was moot and plans must proceed for Cattle Raids coming up in August. We had a big crowd at supper and lots more discussion.  Oh, and south Lincoln got more rain but doesn't look like we got much here in the north!

[NOTE]  The volunteer mower and gentleman tiller is the same person.

Tuesday and Wednesday while dog-sitting with Lucy and Izzie (ant the cat I call Kitty) I worked on the green/cream quilt blocks.  It's slow going with the really narrow strips but some major progress is being made.  It's been raining but at least not like the storms in the South with tornatos and flooding, thank goodness.  Leofwyna came over after moot and we put together a nice little jigsaw puzzle.

Wednesday I went to moot followed by supper with the gang.  Thursday both of us put in a couple hours in the back yard.  Leofwyna has taken out two of the old fence posts while I vacuumed leaves, then she vacuumed leaves while I turned over the B-veggie bed.  Now I'm a full day ahead of my planned work out there, yay!  Tonight I'm preparing a rose velvet and satin prom dress for camera booth garb.

Wednesday I headed out for Gathering (moot) with my bag of hats to work on.  At supper after I finally got a chance to clarify plans for Battlemor with Sash so now I have a better idea for packing plans.  Thursday Leofwyna took on supper and made a very interesting filling for lettuce wraps, mighty tasty stuff.  I've finally finished my genealogy go-through to 1000.  Now I've begun doing the 900s; there ought to be some interesting personages coming through.
