My five:
1. The past couple of weeks have felt really busy, and I can't account for it. Where is all my time going?!
2. I tried a thing in the workshop yesterday, sent a photo to my husband, and Mr. CriticalOfEverything (he was never on board with the pawprint stamp, for example) said, "That's nice!" I will refine the idea today, but yay! (Don't worry! Mr. CriticalOfEverything won't stop me from trying out or pursuing designs... I don't get many creative ideas, so I can't let him stop me from trying the ones that do occur to me.)
3. Heading out to workshop is getting easier and easier with each improvement we make out there. Yesterday, I just threw on my work clothes, grabbed a bottle of Coke, the keys, and my sunglasses, and that was all I needed. Yay for improvements! (Hopefully, we'll find a heating solution for out there before we start to need it.)
4. I think I figured out where all my time is going.
5. My husband is no longer barred from taking holiday, and he's got random days of leave booked either side of various weekends, plus my birthday week, and when I told him about the revised meetup date (October 7th?), he said he's going to see if he can book the 8th off work so we can stay as late as we want. Oh, for those who haven't seen it, it starts on this page:
