Today was a day of waits. So I worked on the braided wall hanging – not table runner as I thought. These are all the braids and now I need to trim all the rows and put them together, put borders on and quilt.
The plumber didn’t show because the truck was stolen.
The shearer didn’t come because he has an issue with over booking. He did come though and helped us get all the sheep to the upper pasture and in the barn so they can stay dry until he returns on Thursday. He has a half trained dog, who was trying, but not as good as one sees in sheep trials. But with the dogs help, the sheep are where they need to be. And we are tired.
Your wall hanging looks great. You did that pretty quickly too. I bet it was an entertaining sight watching the half-trained dog run through his antiques. You have to start somewhere, right? :) We are getting lots of rain every day too. My hair gets so frizzy when it rains or the humidity is high, so I know how those sheep must feel.
You got a lot accomplished in spite of the setbacks! At least you heard from the plumber and the shearer – we’ve had more issues with electricians just not showing up and not calling to explain their absence…
You have every right to be tired! Hope today goes much better for you – and the shearing tomorrow!
