ursulas_alcove* Cleared away old electronics; put away clothes; found studio floor
- Vacuuming TBD
* Started stash inventory - raw materials for future projects
- Clearing the way for weaving kits I'm assembling.
- TBD, Find out how much weft is needed for each size scarf/shawl.
* Made a Mustard colored linen dye bath. I like this better than the curry color I had last year.
* Looked at outdoor studio; must clean out old baths today before freeze. It's raining.
- Dump marigold and onion baths. Clean kettles and lids. Bring inside for winter.
- Check what's in the rest of the buckets.
* Studied notes on dyeing with madder. Can I find the madder I just bought? No. Ongoing quest.
- Read through the stack of books for methods on dyeing with madder. Put books away.
* Pack up all the business tablecloths into a tub, out of the way but likely to be packed for Gulf Wars.
* Dishes were washed.
I was a grown up and took my dirty glassware to be washed downstairs.
On the horizon:
* Call the Royal Locksmith. Get keys to a used filing cabinet I bought 30 years ago? It's legal sized. It would hold off season clothes nicely. I wouldn't have to worry about the roof leaking on them.
* Sand Shuttles
* Practice photography. Learn something. Get better.
* Finish the damn cardigan and get it off the floor
* Call a guy about sistering in those beams. Still fighting over that one. "We're too busy." 'It's too small a job.'
* Plan time for daily finishing of projects. There are too many ~that just needs fringe or the loom is missing a nut, that shawl needs to be blocked, or . . .

I brought mom's troubles over here.
I think she died so she didn't have to deal with her stuff.
