Get up, grab my robe, find my slippers under whatever was thrown on top of them as I jumped into bed the night before, have a glass of water on the way to the kitchen…   make the elixir of life COFFEE, wait for the COFFEE, pour the COFFEE, and take the COFFEE with me to the computer to read the morning news from Blogworld.  It can set up or knock down your day.  Sound at all familiar?  I’m beginning to suspect that I’m not too far off on this scenario, based at least partly on the timing of the comments posted to some of the blogs.  Are you with me on this?  Does what you read influence your day?  I’m betting it does.  I’m betting that you think about what you saw and read off and on all day.  You plan to ‘find that yarn’ or ‘make that scarf’ or whatever.  But you are under the influence…!  And so, I started my day.

Lots of things happened after I read the early morning posts, but something I read, and have read before, "Tuesdays are for Spinning"…   sounded the bell in my head.  It stayed with me all morning.  What the heck, I already missed Tuesday.   I made up for time lost.  My stash of silk / merino rolags is getting smaller.  It’s almost time to do some more carding.   My arms are barely able to knit after last weeks ice removal marathon.  This can only lead to dyeing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Early afternoon, Cindy stopped by for a cup of tea and to bring me this book. 
We’ve waited for Amazon to deliver since early  December.

 

Don’t forget it’s the 20th already and it’s time to keep your hands in your pockets, not your pocketbook.   You can do it, it’s only one day.

Not One Damn Dime!
