Make baskets
Willow basketry

I took a lot of soaked willow to Georgia with me and made several baskets there for my mom.

I need to soak some more willow so I can make some more baskets. I do love working with willow!

I find my baskets are becoming better and better.

I did make a lot of round bases so that I can just grab one and make a basket with it when I have some willow ready.



Free up my frozen shoulder
Untitled

My shoulder hurt so badly, with burning in my arm, so I went to physiotherapy. I did the exercises they gave me, which were many.

Then eventually I went to the chiropractor again. It was great! She fixed my neck after a few visits and the arm pain stopped. I was so pleased! It’s been fine ever since.



Finish planting Everfar Labyrinth
Untitled

I rototilled the other half of the outer four circles the other day. I haven’t removed the grass or planted any thyme in it, though. I’ve been driving in to Ottawa with Willem every day.
