A little of this, and that

I am finally driving, only to the studio and back.
I am so glad that I am not missing October altogether, which is what I was afraid would happen.

L is keeping everything going......for the third time in 14 months.   She's got it down to a science now.
Crazy as a Loom has stayed open for business, in spite of my troubles.

Before my surgery, L and I put 75 yards of 8/2 cotton on the AVL.  But I never got it threaded.  I wanted to, buy my head disagreed.
So L has been threading the heddles, and sleying the reed.  She finished it today.
Not a minute too soon.

 I am not quite ready to weave, but I had the dobby bars all pegged with a new pattern, and I just wanted to do enough to see what it was going to look like.
What do you think?

 I am smitten, and can't wait to get back to it.
75 yards should keep me amused for awhile.  What I love about the AVL is that it fits me well, and weaving on it is really easy for me, and my neck.

 I hated to walk away from it, but walk away I did.

I went home and got creative with some leftover peppers.
I would rather be weaving, but there you have it.

First I cooked some quinoa in some butter, then added some water, then the red and green peppers, and some onion.

And some cilantro, a little garlic, some RoTel tomatoes, and so chipotle baked beans.

 And I added a little rice.
I have NO idea what to call it, but it's really good.

 

Then I took my required nap.  

Ack, when will normal be back, that's my question.

Everytime I get a bit discouraged, I look at my desktop screen, that's all it takes to make me believe in all that's good and beautiful.

What do you think???
