The Submergence Of Summer

And there it is again - an absolute deluge, making this the wettest summer I have ever known. It's like Monty Python And The Holy Grail out there - "Summer gave autumn a miss, and went straight back to winter..."

At least I don't have to spend half the evening with the curtains closed so that I can actually see what I'm doing.

Concerning the Mission 101 "Push"... I've been focussing on Task 94
94: Make a PD-worthy pair of boots from scratch!
and pursuing a likely approach courtesy of a lucky find on deviantART - Elven boots with embroidery by ~scargeear. The patterns provided do seem to be pointing me in the right direction, and maybe a doll-size test-run will show me how effective my attempts at resizing the image files has been.

I am, of course, not exactly looking for a design with flat heels - or no heels, in the case of this design. Once I tinker with the design I do have, and work out how to craft some sole units...

*growls*

Damn it, I'm going to have to buy a new cheap office chair. This one I'm using right now is conclusively FUCKED.
