altivoThere's an illusory sense of freedom that follows completion of a major deadline. I'm still floating on it as a result of finishing all the show work and turning it in on time, and then finishing the guild newsletter and reaching the end of the one year yardage challenge we started last October. In case anyone's interested, the goal was for members of our guild to spin at least 50 miles of yarn in 12 months. Fifteen participated, and we hit the 50 mile mark in June so I pushed to goal up to 75 miles. The 12 month period ended at midnight September 30/October 1, and the final total was just over 85 miles.
Of course there are other things with deadlines looming somewhere in the not too distant future, but for the moment I'm not thinking of them or feeling the pressure.
On the current schedule, Gary has a late class on Thursday and instead of being at his mom's house overnight, he comes back home. This I like, though it means I make dinner and it has to be something that can hold until he gets back. His assignments this week were particularly difficult for him, though he did complete them. So, dinner is naughty comfort food: home made meatloaf with mashed potatoes and green beans. Not the sort of thing we eat very often, but sometimes it seems appropriate.
Weather has gone from near freezing nights and chilly days with northerly winds to a pleasant, June-like sunlight. I guess by Saturday we expect 80F but no rain. That's good, because it's the day we haul our spinning wheels out into the park in front of the Old Courthouse Gallery and spin amid the Farmer's Market to promote our show upstairs in the building. A few years ago, that day had a high temperature of 48F with blustery winds and drizzle, but most years it has been reasonably fair if not exactly warm. Looks as if this year it will be downright pleasant.
