TGIF. No really, TGIF
-I just walked for as far as ~7000 steps takes one, while dragging a trolley. Yes, after years of owning this thing I finally took it for a walk to buy groceries. I rather enjoyed it but my arm is a bit sore. We have a pedometer challenge on at work. One is supposed to make 10,000 steps a day. This brings today's tally to 12,700. Somewhat makes up for some slack days earlier in the week.
-My screen doors are now not to be installed tomorrow as planned :-( This is because the installer has been caught up in bushfire consequence. He is ok but was at the funeral of a close friend today, his children's teachers also died, another friend is staying with him after losing his house to the fires. So... he wants to come install my doors on Sunday. I offered later times but he says he wants to get back to the normality of work and besides, he will be at another funeral next Saturday. Sob. Seems there is a reason I did not organised anything for my otherwise totally free Sunday.
I have a long list of things I want to do this weekend. Usual state of affairs. Mostly chores, some cooking- counts as a chore I suppose, couple of big pots of dinner. Hopefully I will also cut some stuff out - a chemise, maybe the black Durer if I have enough brain. At least re-pattern the sleeves and decide which shape the bodice is to be. Maybe that is not social enough? I do have Spooky men to look forward to Sat night! hope to work some other socialising in somewhere.

We shall have to have a sewing day at some point - I have suddenly got a yen to make all manner of things, starting with stuffed patchwork easter eggs so I can have an Easter tree, and dollies for all the little (and big) girls I know who don't have them and bags and bags and bags. Boy have I got a backlog!
The Spooky Men - is that the thing in North Melbourne tomorrow night? I was vaguely interested in going to that....

Spooky men are indeed on at the Lithuanian Club Sat night. Am booked to go with a bunch of people. Have you seen them? I have and they are much fun.

One of the interesting and useful things I have come across in my travels has been the wall paintings in the monastery in Stein am Rhein which has some women wearing nothing but chemises. I have the new patterns of fashion book which has shirts and smocks in it but nothing suitable for 1520-30s Germany or Switzerland. I am going through a patch of being fascinated by chemises at the moment, so most interested in seeing a black one!
