Keldor woke me more than normal when he came in at 03:30 because he was so cold. He didn’t mean to wake me, but his legs and hips felt to me like he had been sitting in a snow bank before coming to bed.

It took a bit to fall back asleep, but he warmed up reasonably quickly after i added the extra blanket over our doona.

I slept in till after 07:00, so when I went downstairs Styrmir, Kakwkylla, and their dogs were already awake. My hips were aching, so I did some pliaties.

By the time I finished Alfarinn and Ranghild were up, and I picked back up sewing, as did Ranghild.

It was a a pleasant morning of company and projects. When brunch was served at 09:00 I woke Keldor to see if he wanted some. Yes, yes he did.

Just before noon we left and stopped by Kjartan and Caroline’s, where she was hosting a sewing afternoon for friends in her Middle Eastern dance troop, including Frida, the Archaeologist I worked with on the dig at Kirua. While I hubg out and xhatted with David, Keldor enjoyed chatting Norrland Archaeology with Frida. I would have enjoyed that conversation, too, but it was so good to see David, so I can’t mind missing it.

We spent perhaps 15 minutes or a half an hour there before continuing south. On the way home we dropped the Shire stuff we’d used at JMBards at the storage, and measured the space so now we know how much bigger is my preferred option for moving the storage to.

Once home we set up the pavilion he washed last week, and determined the new poles are about 20 cm longer than they need to be.

In the evening I finally traced Keldor’s arms onto the silk for his new banner
