Sleying the Reed

Today, I played with the loom.
Threading these warp threads through the reed
is called sleying.
It slays me.
(Talk about ancient sayings.)


And here she is all ready to go.
Weaving the weft into the warp.
That's the next step.
Its like learning a whole 'nother language.

GUAM

When Marvis invited me to go to Saipan with her, I wasn't quite sure what to think.
Nor did I know where it was.
Nor did I know we'd get to see Guam, Saipan AND Narita Japan.
And get the special priveledge of meeting so many fabulous people. 
The view from our hotel room in Guam.
It was a short, sweet stay.
The coral in this bay is very very sharp.
The current is very very strong.
Why yes, I did get beached on sharp coral while snorkeling.

 This group worked hard to feed us.
Photos galore at the end of convention.
We headed off to Saipan that same night...
it was hard to leave Guam after even 2 and a half days!

Meyowl

 
I try not to be pet-obsessed,
but sometimes this cat of mine is pretty cute.
(And yes, sometimes she's pretty obnoxious, too.)
