blizzard fodder

I have a cold, so I'm going to go take a nap, but first a quick summary of what's going on here lately.

Smallish floor refinishing project is turning into a much bigger undertaking, thanks to old pine turning a drastically different color than new pine when polyurethaned. We expected this, to some extent, so we're just rolling with it while we figure out what to do next.

There's lots of snow outside and lots of happy creative people inside. Collection of results above, clockwise from 12:00: Jesse's Lego Mindstorms spinning wheel motor (yes, it works!), Scott's first skein of handspun Autumn Maples, 1 finished sleeve of my sweater, pair of Socks That Rock 3/4 of the way done, light green dishcloth made by Leah (one of many made and gifted in the past few days), 1/2 finished second sleeve of my sweater cushioning a couple of bead sets and mamabeads, Leah's scarf-in-progress of her green handspun.

Must listen to more Chronicles of Narnia on CD. Must nap. :::sniff, sniff:::
