The combination of weather, two nights without sufficient sleep, and no nap yesterday have produced a strong desire to fall in a heap.\u00a0 Or move very…very…slooooowly.\u00a0 Weather has been interesting–usually is, in a Texas May, unless we’re deep in drought when it’s not just boring but scary with real summer coming on (100F degrees in May with no rain presages a horrible summer.)<\/p>\n
This year we’re having storms and rain.\u00a0 I have new rubber boots (the rubber boots bought earlier failed the first time I stepped into water, rather than just damp grass.\u00a0 These have so far leaked much less.\u00a0 You would think, rubber-boot-manufacturers, that you’d realize rubber boots are purchased to keep feet dry, not to lure people into walking through water only to get wet.)<\/p>\n
But anyway, though I had planned to drive down to the yarn shop that’s only 35 miles away (as opposed to the one that’s 50 miles away) to pick up yarn they special-ordered for me. \u00a0 I feel sluggish, with stuffed sinuses and an incipient headache.\u00a0 It’s about 80, intermittent sun peaking through the clouds, and the humidity…they say 70% but the actual station is about 20-25 miles away.\u00a0 Right here it’s “squeeze the air, get water” humid.<\/p>\n
So I will knit with the yarn I have (not a tiny amount, either.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
