Week 20
Crown is this weekend. So we will be traveling to the Other Side of Arkansas. (guessing 8 hours) to fight in that. We are hauling the Pop-up camper and the canoe to go on and float the Buffalo River on Monday aftewards. Looking forward to seeing the sites out there, but not the drive out there. Quick somebody finish working on that Teleporter machine!
Caillin and Drogo have spent the last week prepping for crown fighting 3 out of 5 nights this week. They are both pretty bruised up, but hopefully it will help when it comes down to it.
Reading: Life of Pi. by Yann Martel, its a very strange book about a boy stuck on a lifeboat with a tiger in the middle of the ocean. The first part is him growing up in India and trying to figure out why the adults in his town don't want him to consider himself a christian, a muslim, and a hindi. That part was pretty interesting to me.
Last weekend we were in town, so I basicly piddled around the house. Erin and I dyed fabrics on Saturday, and on Sunday I cut into them to make a quilt top. (proud of myself, usually I just look at them for a long time before coming up with a project.) I'd been trying to find something else to work on recently, and hadn't been inspired. I'm working in the signature blocks that I'd collected from our last few trips to disney, its going to be nice I think.
I also dyed a large fabric piece to make curtains for the pop up. they came out a nice soft dark lavender / light purple. Goes with the light lavender ceiling nicely I think. Now I want to recover the cushions inside the camper just to have them not clash. (also a new floor I think)
Oh the biggest news is that Steve brought home a laptop. He surprised me with it and the wireless router needed to get it on the internet. Isn't he sweet!
