#tracywearswool day 75 out of 100, and it is time for tea.

Two for tea.. and that is generally me.  And sometimes, that is when I make my phone calls, or video calls with friends and family.  It is a good way to connect, over a cuppa.. and see how things are going.

Of course, It will be nice to get back to the regular time… if there is any such  thing anymore.  You know, tea in person. Or coffee… or bourbon.  Anything, really.

The time will come, I am sure of it.

For those of you new to this blog …I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool&  —  Same dress.  100 days. (And yes, you can wash it!) Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with my lifestyle.

What’s in store today:

Another chilly day at the beach, so there are lots of layers today.  I practiced my Appalachain Flatfooting and Clogging — Trying to get it down enough to make a video.  I can’t say how much I enjoyed learning this, and I sure hope to continue.  In fact, I would love to travel to Kentucky and see where the family went along the Appalachian Trail. Between Amazing Dress people, and clogging people, I will have a lot of new folks to visit with. In the meantime, I’ll hang out at the beach.

The safest bet is nice fleecy tights, and a scarf.

This is  hand dyed piece of indigo fabric — I think it is silk.  It was once the wrapping for some yarn that was a gift from my daughter.  A friend of hers grows the indigo for dying.

As part of the challenge, I will be posting my daily outfits on blog posts as well as social media with the hashtag #tracywearswool — please follow along — and see all the creative outfits that I can come up with!

 #tracywearswool day 74 out of 100, and I am down in the boondocks.

And I like it that way.  Half the time I am out in the big city of Portland Oregon, with Powell’s books, and Voodoo Donuts… and all the hustle and bustle of a major city.  There is so much to do… the Rose Garden, The Grotto,  more yarn stores than you can count, Trade-Up music, and the list goes on.

And as much as I love Portland, it gets a little busy, and loud.  So I am always relieved to head back down the road to Long Beach, Washington, where I live out in the boondocks — in the best sense of the word.  Out on the beach, to be precise, where everything is just a little bit slower, and a little bit quieter.  And there is a great yarn store here — just down the road in the next little sleepy town.  Heaven.  And I love it!

Pretty busy here at the beach, lots of guests in and out  Everybody happy as clams.  of course they will be super happy when clam season opens back up!  I have my graduation party (ZOOM) for Appalachain Flatfooting and Clogging — still have to make that final video and post!  And I will have to keep practicing — so that I can be ready for the next class.  I started on Sweater #4 — photos tomorrow… after I get a bit more done.

Today was chilly… even though the sun was shining.  So it was a perfect day to try out my new tights from a “Sister in the Wool!” She is one of the wonderful folks in the challenge Facebook Group.  Such an honor to be in their company.

 #tracywearswool day 73 out of 100, and YES… we have sunshine!!

It is always pretty much a cause for celebration when the sun comes out in the Pacific Northwest.  Of course, we get great summer weather, but it is after the long dreary, rainy winter that the sun is such a welcome sight.

Of course, all the fabulous rain makes for a very green, lush landscape.  And when the sun comes out…. we really get things growing.

I’ll post the sunflower status — I planted seeds a few weeks ago — not from seed packets, but from a 25 lb sack of Wagner’s black oil organic sunflower seed…. for birds! A Canadian told me she does it…. and they are coming in quite nicely.  I will have enough to keep reseeding for the entire season, for both here and Portland.

What’s in store today:

Today, I am back at the coast with a dozen Fuschia starts and almost that many geranium starts.  So I will be working in the flowerbeds and filling flowerpots today, along with some weeding and sprucing the place up.  And, of course, I will be trying to get some knitting done, and working on some personal development — listening to podcasts, and journaling.

For me, it is a growth thing… because before the dress, I would never have bought striped tights… or worn a short-sleeve t-shirt over a dress?? WHAT THE HECK??

And I am having so much fun with it all!!
