I am working on a job out of town, Springfield Missouri. I have been painting, and tonight building parts of my set I designed. I reacquainted myself with sawdust and shop dirt-not to mention "shop buggers". And I am about to run out of clothes. I am having the dilemma that my book character "Jimmy Jack" is having; although his is due to vanity. "What do I wear?" I am running out of clothes and no time to wash things. Tonight I bought some Woolite and I plan to wash all my quick-drying things tomorrow morning and hang them up. I just don't have the time in my schedule to go to a laundry-mat. And I hate running around smelling like the shop and general dust/dirt.
I will resort to the bathtub like I do when out of town on a ride or race. Put my wet clothing in a towel. Roll it up and then twist it to squeeze out excess water. This works great and my kits and base layers dry fast. So, in a day I will not have a fashion crisis like "Jimmy Jack". He is worried about his appearance on his first day of his new job. I am concerned about looking neat and clean; not homeless.
By the way, this past Monday I sent my book; "Jimmy Jack Gets a New Job" to the printers to create a hard and soft back version. I will check quality and color matching. If all goes according to schedule, I should have books by mid December to sell. I am so excited. I have worked on this on and off for 2 years. Cannot wait!
