Saturday June 13th

Friday was a very interesting day for me. Rio Grande has started carrying my Chain Making Techniques book and I actually got a full tour of the facility a few months back. Well I have been thinking and I inquired about teaching for them. I had ordered some wire, sheet and tube for some projects that I am pondering and chatted with the one of the members of the teaching team. We are going to have a really real meeting on next Friday to talk all about it. I think it would be an excellent collaboration and it may, just may, make it possible for me to not have to travel so far and so often. Routines are wonderful and a reoccurring gig like that I think would be a real blessing.

I had an excellent rest of Friday and ended up getting my hair all cut off and having a wonderfully weird sushi dinner. The sushi chef had some very interesting ideas about what would actually go with raw fish… I think that the olives were a not so good choice… but the rest of the meal was very nice and how can you go wrong with an very large Asahi and hot sake.

Today was another lazy day. After I got the irritation of an annoying task taken care of the rest of my day was SO very beautiful. I got a few good errands accomplished but I really had no desire to do anything other than what I was doing, I just wanted to continue the simple task of just rejuvenating for the ENTIRE day. So, that is what I did. The errands that I did accomplish were good ones that needed to be done but I had no desire to wrap my head around ANYTHING large.

I think that I am still in a tired daze form Bead & Button. I know that I will get back to it ASAP. I think I just needed a bit of crash and burn time.
