White Threads

maybe today?

I spent about 10 hours yesterday reading through the printouts of the book again. And finding lots more little things to fix…

At the beginning of the day I was thinking to myself “Oh, I’ll let that one go. It’ll be ok” but then I thought to myself “No! This is my chance to get it right! I am going to fix those things.” So fix them, I did.

I now have another set of printouts that I will read through today. Hopefully it won’t take me 10 hours again! So hopefully it will be posted today?

I woke this morning from a bit of a nightmare. I dreamt that I had travelled about 8 hours into the country for a class. I turned up for the class and in the few seconds before it was due to start, I realised that *I* was meant to be teaching it! As it was a Mountmellick class, I was supposed to have brought kits with me, and prepared a workshop. It was rather awkward as I stood there explaining to the class that because I had been so caught up in finishing off the book I forgotten to do it. Thankfully they were all very nice about it and because we were in a fabric shop, we made do with the supplies there and had a slightly chaotic class instead. I’m so glad it was only a dream!

Can you tell this book is just slightly weighing on me?!
