Work, sundry items

[helwen]

Last Wednesday was my last regularly scheduled day at the chiropractors' office (unless they're unable to get someone to cover this week - I said I'd work if they couldn't get someone). The continuing lack of communications about changes in office procedure once again reared its head last week (why am I hearing about a change on Wednesday that they've been working on implementing since December?). And quite frankly, given that I rarely got a full shift (once in the last month) nevermind a full week, makes it more expensive for me to be working there than not. So, I'm on their list as a sub still, and will do some work at home.

I'll spend some time working on house projects, catching up on some artwork, reading more for my Novice Schola class, and putting together photos of books for kass_rants. Since we don't merchant a lot and don't have a commercial web site, it'll be nice to have our books getting more exposure. With any luck, it might help to keep me busy and out of trouble :D

Last night instead of watching a DVD or whatever, fitzw read to me while I had some tea, etc., then I read to him while he re-worked a bookbinding. We're reading _Dies The Fire_ together right now.

Today was pretty uneventful - washed and hung up a load of laundry, washed a few dishes, put some garb away, and started inventorying and bagging some fabric I don't need access to for a while (yes, the inventory includes where the bags are located). fitzw and I went to Ingleside to pick up a few things today and also got in a walk while we were there.

I made some mini travel sewing kits for our just-in-case kits. Since fitzw and I both have Swiss Spartans now, it's just a few needles and thread, but I thought they'd be useful to have -- 'just in case'.

I figure this evening I'll work on a tunic I cut out before Pennsic but didn't have time to sew, and do some tweaking of my Yule/12th Night dress -- I noticed this morning that one side of the front opening on the bodice isn't quite square enough.

I guess that's all the news from this little corner of the world.

add safety pins. They are terribly handy.

They're in my first aid kits :) They're handy there, too - esp. when the clippy thing for the ace bandage goes away, but I've used them to tweak the fit on a sling too.
