Knitting, sewing, and spinning all happened this weekend, with great enjoyment and in some cases tangible results. More about that later. To be perfectly honest, what's on my mind right now is that in just a couple of days I am going on VACATION. A real vacation during which I will not be attending a conference, freezing on top of a mountain somewhere, visiting family, or struggling to stay on top of a horse that is scrambling up stone rock faces and down waterfalls. I am going someplace warm. Saturday I went downtown and got a wide-brimmed hat. I also got the pictured items, which may or may not qualify in your view as "garments". I am somewhat shocked myself (and with great delicacy I spare you the picture of me actually inside them). I am looking forward to wearing them and feeling some warmth on my skin. Oh the freedom of going someplace where you are totally unknown! Yesterday I went through long-unopened drawers and found summer clothes I had forgotten existed. Little wisps of things in linen and lawn. A sundress with irises and a full skirt. A little silk blouse with ruffles.

And to top it all off-- my mother called last night and offered to buy me a massage while I'm away. I told her to please have them schedule it near the beginning of the trip. :)
