Monday and Tuesday this week were my last couple of days to work in LuleƄ before my summer vacation. Given how much prep work said vacation needs, I was not at all surprised when I left work early on Tuesday. Flex time is handy and, despite getting on the road at 10:15, I was only just over five hours behind for the month (being able to start at 06:00 that morning helped.
I made good time on the drive, arriving home 2 hrs and 40 minutes later, including a stop at the big grocery store in SkellefteƄ. Then I relaxed a couple hours on the couch, during which I read fb, ate homemade ice cream, etc.
We spent the evening finishing up sewing projects that will be good to have in Norway, and finally did yoga and went to bed not long after midnight.
Not quite 4 hours later I woke and thought of the Badger Face mask design from Wisconsin. I had planned to make one last year as protection from both stone dust and viruses when working at the Viking Museum, but then the border was closed, so, not having the job, I never made the mask.
So I got up and tried to find that plastic face shield so I can add the fabric needed to close it up. I have seen it, more than once, since we bought the house. I know it is here, and suspect it is in the office/craft supply room.
The room we still hadn't completely unpacked. The one with a mountain of stuff on my desk needing to be sorted and out away. Four hours later the room looks much better. The empty wooden boxes I brought home from work are now stacked against the walls, filled with UFO's, mending, and project supplies, each labeled, and the desk is clean and dusted. Sadly, I still have no idea where that mask is.
Then I took a nap, and now it is time to do the final event packing for SkellefteƄ Medeltidsdagar (luckily, I packed most of my stuff last weekend)and load the car and trailer.
We have that event till Saturday, Sunday we drive, and Monday we start working at the museum!
