Okay; shirt button sewed on, paint and brushes acquired, chess set painted, exercises done, dishes done. Feels like a pretty good day. :)

Only, I don't know if this magnetic chess set is really going to work at all, and I'm a little bummed about that. When the pieces get too close too each other (which I'm nearly certain they would be on the board, it's so small) they suck each other up with the magnetism! I thought the way those boards were supposed to work was that the board was magnetized, not the pieces.

My stomach is singing to me like a whale. Do you suppose it's the zucchini and egg soup I had for lunch? Perhaps if I put a chunk of granola down there it'll shut up. Or, tea! Tea is good for everything, right? :)

No, not making, I'm not that clever! :) They're tiny magnets which are painted with symbols to represent the various chess pieces, but for some reason they made both sides black. So I've been painting over one side's little symbols with red. I don't know as I can change their extremely stong magnetism, though. They may end up as refriderator ornaments, after all.
