Today my yarn shop called about some yarn I wanted – having no paper or pencil, I wrote the amount on the wall! Just doing what I can to keep the economy ticking along.
Here is the day’s progress – detail in the a.m. and broader stuff in the afternoon. Betsy brought an umbrella, and as the shadows lengthened throughout the afternoon, the umbrella became more and more effective. That seam in the wall is the half-way point! (I know, I keep telling you that, but it helps me to repeat it like a little kid saying “I won, I won” until you just want to smack him.)
The details are getting better and better, doncha think?? 😎 It took great discipline to stop fiddling with it when the wall heated up. Tomorrow I will buy some new brushes so the ones that are all splayed can be used for less precise tasks. Oh, today a most thoughtful gentleman inquired if I would like a cup of coffee. He then returned with black decaf, exactly to my specifications! Thank you, Chester!

Hi Jana. Reading glasses? middle age? Hmm. Guess I didn’t have MY reading glasses the day I stopped by and discussed butter! Whats with the brief appearance of the banjo guy? Just a bit of fun? How bout a leprachaun (how do u spell that?) just for today? Maybe I will stop by again thurs or fri to check on the progress and maybe bring you a stick of butter. :))
Ooooo, what kind of yarn did you get?? I try and keep my LYS (“Local Yarn Shop”) in business by purchasing yarn there as much as possible.
The mural is looking great! How is the fund raising going? Do I need to send out another “nudge” to the MKDA list?
Upward and onward!
