Dremel!

Many, many years ago, when Mike's mom was making stained glass pieces, she expressed her interest in getting a Dremel tool. We poked around a bit and even looked at Dremel-look-a-likes. In the end, however, she decided that she didn't need it.

Since then, Mike has periodically expressed an interest in obtaining a Dremel and has always been frustrated by our lack of need for it. Then he found this project. There it was, the need.

And so, we are now the proud owners of a Dremel rotary tool with the works.
And Mike is one happy guy.

Scarf of the Sixth

And on the sixth day of vacation, I finished a gift scarf.Once again it was an icky sort of day here so we mostly stayed inside. Squidette and I took a walk to get some trendy teen-type clothing (for her) but then returned to the less humid environment of our apartment.

Back at home we were greeted with this sight.And this one. Pretty much how they looked all day as they played with electronics. Little Squid is working his way through an introductory book and managed to light up an LED. He also managed to blow up two LEDs, much to his delight.We ended the day watching the end of the Tour de France rebroadcast and I made some progress on my TdF Knit along project.
