When a woman is tired of fabric...

I survived yesterday, but just barely. I think you can appreciate how tired I was when I was in Boras, the best place for buying fabric, especially fine wool, cheaply in this country, and I decided to find the rest room at the university and take a nap instead of going out to the shopping area.
It might even be something more serious than that, because I feel that I have enough fabric!!
Yes, you read that right, I don't think I need more fabric. It must be really serious, maybe even deadly.
I mean, objectively, I do have enough fabric for anybody, but it hasn't felt like that before. And it's been like that all the time since I cam home from London with my new silk.

I really should be working on my 18th century dress, but I think I will have to face that I don't have the energy to finish it by friday, which means it probably won't be finished until after the baby is born.

I think I'll just get a cup of tea and watch "Days Of Our Lives" instead.

Attack on Sweden's minister of foreign affairs

This afternoon our minister of foreign affairs was attacked with a knife while shopping in central Stockholm. This is now six hours ago and she's still in surgery with severe damage to the liver among other things.
To those of us in Sweden who are old enough it brings back memories of the murder of prime minister Olof Palme in 1986, a trauma that never quite healed, the killer hasn't been found either. I don't know if I want to stay up all night and wait for news or sleep, since I can't do anything about it.
I don't always agree with our government's politics and Anna Lindh's (her name) views, but in general she is a good person who means well. She used to be very engaged in environmental issues, which is good in my opinion, I used to be very active in the environmental movement as well some ten years ago.
I wonder why somebody tried to kill her. I hope it was a madman, but on the other hand she's had some heavy criticism on the Israeli politics and violence against the palestinians lately and that might be what caused the attack.
I don't want the world to be like this.

On the private side I've totally given up on the sack dress, I don't even know if I will be well enough to go to the party. I visited a friend who's going to have her baby any day now today and I realized that walking 3-400 meters was really hard for me now.
Bleh!

Tomorrow is full moon, I think I should ask for some energy.
