Warping a loom is a big job

And it takes even longer when you have "help."

Eventually, we got it done and I started weaving.  Since I hate practicing just for the sake of practicing, I'm weaving a rug for my tent to set my shoes on.  Both warp and weft are cotton so I can throw it in the washing machine when it gets dirty.

I definitely need more practice but it's not too bad for my very first piece.

While Rhonda was helping Sheri and I warp our respective looms, Galen was showing his love for Sheri's shoes:

The expression of his lust for her shoes got a little wild at times.

Today was a day of chores.  I managed to get groceries, catfood from the pet store, two baker's racks from ALDI, weeded the front bed (it was so bad you can't really tell I did anything... darn it!), did two loads of laundry, took my camping gear back down to the basement, wove a little and scooped the litterbox.  The darks are in the dryer and I still need to change the sheets on my bed. I need to do another weeding session next weekend and pick up a lot of mulch from Lowe's.  A LOT of mulch.  Once the mulch is down, the garden will look much better.

While I was working, Galen was sleeping:

And Tyr was playing:

Love both pics of Tyr. (Gotta love Cat in a Bag!)
And Galen with the shoe, too. (My little Ursula loved my daughter's Tevas with all her might. It was funny to watch.)
