Breaking fewer saw blades

[infryq]

Yesterday I did a practice bend on a scrap of brass, and it worked great. I measured and marked the through hole for the speed controller knob, and started cutting it out with a saw. Slow work but it’ll be pretty when it’s done.

I wrapped some more gifts, and wrote some cards to give them a bit of context.

After lunch we folded laundry and did the crossword. I spent most of the afternoon watching SG-1 and napping. It was pretty excellent.

Dinner, scrabble(660, two bingos), SG-1, snack, sleep. Dreamt of being head scorekeeper for some kind of forecasting competition, fixing road signs, and auntie M visiting to help with a deep clean.

I finished Dusk of Dragons and Crown of Dragons and started Shield of Dragons. The battle tactics were fun, and the “hey why don’t we try actually talking to each other” is a relief. Misogynist world, feminist author. The villains are still a bit flat but what can you do.
