 I’m losing track of time. Oh, don’t worry, it’s not any kind of mental deterioration thing (at least, I hope not). It’s just a matter of too many years meshing together. It seems I can’t discern one year from eight. I might tell you I did thus and so two years ago, when in fact, I did it ten years ago.

 Around six years ago or so, I inherited my grandmother's Union Loom Works #36 Rug loom which was built around 1900.

I wanted to weave so badly I could hardly stand it

 How many phrases do we have in the English language whose sole purpose is to pat ourselves on the back? Things like, “I could have told you that” and “what were you thinking,” self-aggrandize the speaker but add nothing of worth to the problem or situation. And yet, our language seems to indicate that we seem inordinately pleased with ourselves...
