Well just in case there was ever any doubt, it is obvious that I am a sloth! Have hit a wall it seems, I have no real interest in doing or going just want to sit and vegetate. I am going to Ohio in about ten days and have not even begun to think about gathering or packing. I have begun to think about what I will be taking to quilt with Karen's machine. I have a couple of projects in the process of being prepared to travel. We will be taking a Judy Neyemeyer class but there is a kit for it and all I really need to take is my featherweight. Karen has offered the use of one of hers but I would prefer using my own.
We had toyed with the idea of taking extra fabric and making a second one at the same time but it seems that it is pre-printed or something and that doing an extra one would cost an extra $30 for a second pattern! Perhaps one will be enough! Not really excited about the fact that there will be x number that look just like mine! (May take some batiks to throw into the mix; perhaps, a golden yellow to replace the peach.) Seems a lot like Paula Nadelstern's ego/class. Of course, I am still remembering crouching by the laptop and clicking through the slides while she nattered on and then being dismissed when she finished. Too bad she never thought to thank me; definitely left a bad taste in my mouth! I must remember that I was only a worker bee while she was the artist queen that lots of folks had come a long way to learn from! In other words, get over it and forget about it! lol!
The worst thing is that everything here is chaotic; I want to try and get it done before I leave but with Larry feeling so puny (summer cold) I really hate to ask him to do too much. I know that moving the queen size bed is gonna be a bitch and while I might be able to do the double by myself, there is no way I can move the queen. So I just sit around and dither! Aarrrgh! I talked with one of my former students about helping and she agreed to come with her sweetie but I expect she forgot. Time to get my big fat butt out of this recliner and do it myself! Nothing can really be accomplished until I take down the double bed; perhaps, I can do that today!
Up and at 'em kt!
