Monday night I went back to Irish Class, having missed a week. I did OK. Some other students had also been gone that day, so I was not too far out of step. Still, I need to work harder at this. I never fail to be impressed at how our teachers manage to keep the classes progressing when the whole system is completely voluntary and free. It is great to see devotion in action.

Also, I was feeling stuck on one of my woodworking projects, the new shaving horse. The constraint I have imposed on myself is that it has to be easily taken down for transport and rebuilt on site. I got an idea about that tonight which may help a lot.
