I am so pleased with most of the blue green dye project. Yippee. I couldn't wait for tea, but dumped them out in the tub to begin the laborious rinse process. Today i will rinse *and* scrub the tub *and* wash the Derma Smoothe peanut oil based medication out of my hair leaving the medicated shampoo in my hair for ages. I feel i have so much dye left. What to do with it?

The rust brown, so ORANGE, will go to dye the stained sheet along with the maroon brown that i will mix up when i get back. It's so orange, though. Christine likes orange, but i don't. Hmm, i wonder if i have a stained tablecloth. Orange for autumn could be pleasant.

I suppose i could dye my bamboo yard-wide miniblankets with blue and green. I could also try to dye the laundry basket. (Fiber reactive dye interacts with cellulose and so will attach to the rattan.)

I hope i feel like playing with dye after work next week.

I didn't play with the GPS or get camera equipment in order yesterday. That's the order of today. Oh, and a crochet project for the trip. I was thinking of resurrecting Mom's slippers. I don't think i'll finish them for her birthday in early September, but....
