Yeah, sometimes the wood just won't quit moving. That's usually when I throw it in the corner to "think about what it's done," for a few months. The Russian olive I have a bunch of is like that. I did manage to slice some into small boards, but every one of them will need some filling to be usable. That was supposed to be this winter's project, but we never really had a winter, so I haven't gotten to it.

May you have the day you deserve!
