I just ordered oodles of Aurora 8 from Webs, so I can start making the Cabled Riding Jacket from Loop-d-Loop. I chose a nice chocolaty brown which I think will be more versatile with my wardrobe. I can't wait. And that was a great end to my holiday weekend:
Spring Thing:
As always a lovely time. Lazed around in the sun (and brief rain on Saturday). Played music with tons of people. Played with B and Twin. Bad thing: Twin got SICK!! She went home early which sucked (but I am happy that she's doing much better now). The workshop Singer-Songwriters of the 80's. 90's, 00's wasn't nearly as much fun without her to sing with. Also, I never can remember song lyrics, but she can. I was without my BRAIN, people!
It was also one of the most Fertile events I've ever been too. It seemed like everybody was preggers! And when I mentioned this to Spouse, he agreed and then wandered off to coo at a baby in a magenta jumpsuit. NOT HELPING!
Songs I to remember to bring documentation for to Fest and next year's Spring Thing:
Snowman, The Neilds
Anything by Kathleen Edwards
some Ani, I haven't sung her in a while
maybe something by Beth Orton??
What's So Funny 'Bout Peace Love and Understanding, Nick Lowe (Elvis Costello)
Songs to work on with Twin and B:
The Moth, Aimee Mann
brush up our many acoustic Radiohead tunes
Whoo!Woo!
yarn mileage,
folk'd up
