Blood & Fun at the Homestead

[saffronhare]

Much fun was had last night at our impromptu "scrape-the-bejeesus-out-of-Saff's-house" party. Thanks to zylch, the crap craft hallway is about halfway scraped. It's fun to watch an archeologist discover layers of paint and wallpaper. The front hallway is all scraped and partly steamed; the stairs are almost ready for steaming.

There was also mac & cheese, and eldest daughter got to ask a lot of questions about the site picture zylch is drafting...or whatever it was. In all, a marvelous and spontaneous evening. I was very pleased. (It's not like we have enough tools and space to keep more than a few people occupied anyway.) Next time: add German music!

Note to self: Light a candle and make an actual offering to Sekhmet real soon, or she's gonna keep taking bites out of your flesh with putty knives. The one from yesterday was darn close to needing stitches.

Glad you had a fun and productive evening last night! I'm definitely in on the next scrape-a-thon.

Happy to have you over anytime. Sorry for the short notice last night -- I've been startlingly spontaneous lately. Hope your own evening was what you both needed.

Oh! And please mention to iron_clad how impressed I am that he's doing so well in school and learning stuff -- gives me a chance to learn more stuff, too...I'm still waiting for my turn to help him study. :)

Taphonomy is my friend! As is mac & cheese. Drafting, however, is being annoying. I've gone as far as I can until Alicia answers a few very small, very simple questions, but she's in the middle of a move to DC right now. Mrf.

Anyway, I had a lovely time, and am looking forward to more mess-creation sometime soon :-D

Mrf, LoL
