...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.

It seems to be the Dutch who invented this insane passtime. Makes me feel quite guilty...

And congrats on the revisions. I'm still performing major surgery on the first five chapters...and that's on a very clean first draft.

they do not fold teabags.

They used to. The paper packets the teabags are in. That's why the name--the pieces of origami paper used now are about the size of the teabag packets. At least I think that's how it went. I could be wrong.

Anyway, I do this sometimes. I make ornaments.
