Things have been too nuts around here this week. So here is an update of things I've been doing.
Thing #5 - Painted shelf
I bought this shelf over a year ago, and just painted it gray to match my bathroom.

Thing #7 - Black woven belt
This inkle woven belt has 52 warp threads in two colors (black and cream) and two different string weights in the blacks. It is for a good friend who wears a lot of Viking garb in her play in the SCA.

Thing #8 - Book list
I am trying a new thing this year. I want to track what I'm reading all year. I got started and the layout done today on this. It's not all filled in yet for January books read but the idea is there.
Enjoy.
