Feb. 11th, 2020 06:29 pmI've been playing with fabric dye this week. I mean - I own it, so I might as well use some of it up. And if I can get a color clors to a blue/green instead of white, I'll eventually turn the fabric into a 'do rag for summer sun protection.
I've also got some black gye (or course), and I'm tempted to refresh my memory on how to tie-dye and use it on a white t-shirt...

Not much knitting going on. Something about the way I'm sleeping when on my right side has really been aggravating my radial nerve, and having my thumb, forefinher, and message finger go numb after only a couple stitches does not make knitting enjoyavle.The last 2 nights I've slept with a heat wrap on my neck/shoulder, and it has seemed to calm things down a bit.
+++
But the bid thing is last weekend I finally (FINALLY) got off my ass and tried Lydt! And it's so much less expensive than the other ridesharing (non-profit) company I tried before! YAY for a greater measure of independence! OK, so after years of being dependant on other for rides, I've adjusted, but it was not easy or smooth and it sometimes still bothers me. Especially when people make jokes about being so introverted they'd happily never leave the house again. Uh, no. I used to think that, until I could no longer go places on my own.
So I can now knock out a couple long pending things that have been impossible to schedule late enough for Himself to pick me up on his way home from work, instead of him taking off early. He'll do it for a doctor's appt, but I've hated every. single. time. I've had to ask. Now I'll get myself there again.
