Yes, they are and just as ephemeral.

Another scorcher
There was a handful of skeins from the Blues batch that needed another chance at glory. Over dyeing is part mystery and part chance. My favorite stuff.

In the hot zone
The colors were leaning murky, but hot. I didn't use any black this time out. Deep Space standing in for the darkness.
There was no thunderstorm to help me finish. I'll have these in the store by midweek.
Pressing on
I ignored the 4th as best I could.

Rarified
Teachers do not make enough money. I kept running out of ways to keep him focused on math.
But there was so much to discuss. The latest developments in the Marvel Universe. All things about living with a cat. A sometimes too-challenging video gane that signals when he"s tired.
I try to keep a light tread over current affairs. Shared horror giggles over Eau de Shitweasel. I remind him that these are adult concerns - his job is to be a child a while longer. Kindness and doing your best is all we should ask. Charlie delivers.
Unfortunately, I let him know that my math game has been weak since the third grade. I barely got by. He's fast approaching the edge of my number comfort zone. When they start slinging fractions around I'll be in trouble.
I'm good with time, money, percentages, and practical geometry, but the mechanics of naked arithmetic seemed greased to me. Except word problems.
He gets better with each practice.Sunday, June 29, 2025

a switch-up
It's late and I'm sore and tired. Bit off a bit too much for day one.
