Not enough stuff to make a post...
Jan. 14th, 2008 07:45 pm...but let's do it anyway.
It was only today I discovered there is a craft of teabag folding. Some discoveries are innate with disappointment: for no, they do not fold teabags.
The boys have discovered a new way to test their prowess: leaping for the carrier-bag that I stuff with other carrier-bags, to be recycled. I have this hanging on a coathook in the hall, at about my head height. That's about six foot up. The boys have slashed that poor bag to ribbons. Yay boys.
Meanwhile, I have been upstairs working on my revisions. I am on page 402 of 490. When I started there were 616 pages, so we have measurable progress; even so, however hard I worked this evening, I would not finish it tonight. So I will probably slack off now. Sod it.

Anyway, I do this sometimes. I make ornaments.
