How Many Sleeps??

I feel pulling tied knots through Texolv heddles is one of the worst tasks in weaving, especially if some of the warps are boucle, and it's a double-width, (i.e. twice as crammed, i.e. double the regular EPI) warp. Which is what I battled today; well, not quite; I got exasperated and walked away with two more inches to pull through. Tomorrow.

I haven't been productive on the loom, or in my art practice. I've been doing minimum housework, and no gardening. But I have been reading fiction, for hours and hours every day, in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. It's not been "productive" in the sense I'm not accomplishing or finishing things, ticking items off To Do lists, but it's been a while since I've been able to relax enough to just read, and I enjoy it. But it's time I got back on the horse, in addition to reading.

Ben told me this morning he only has to work one more week, which made me realize it's a week before Christmas. I had a lot of "end of year" stuff in late Nov/early Dec about which I want to write about, just so I don't forget.

So, some "notes to myself" posts coming up now.
