Sick Day

Hello all! *cough* *cough* I feel like crap today. Some sort of deep cough and pain in the chest. Maybe I have the black lung. (Anybody see the movie "Zoolander?"...it's a stupid/funny movie, but a good quote) Maybe it's bronchitis. I tend to assume the worst thing first so that when I find out it's just a little cough I can feel relieved. I'll have to keep an eye on it. I'll head for the couch. I was hoping to do the second color of printing on my cards, but don't know if I have the strength. We'll see. I've done a small run of 30 cards. The first color went on evenly (yay again!) so now I just have to correctly register the second color on top of it. I tried one or two yesterday and it came out ok. But just not in the ink color I want. Almost there! I also have to head off at some point to the craft store to get mineral spirits for cleaning the press. I'm running out. I use Crisco on the plates, but the former owner of my press mentioned his concerns about using it on the press because he said it leaves a varnish film behind. Anyone have thoughts on this? I am also waiting for more plate adhesive from Boxcar...my plates aren't really sticking very well right now (I've peeled them on and off a handful of times now) Anyway, when I clean the press I use mineral spirits and I wear surgical gloves. I can't use anything with water because my rollers aren't rubber...they are composition and will deteriorate with water. Anyhoo, I hope all is well everyone! Keep smiling! (or start, whatever the case may be)
