Will She or Won’t She…

Make it to Denver…

As it turns out, my heavy spring teaching schedule is starting out not so well.  Last weekend’s class in Chapel Hill NC had to be postponed at the 9th hour because Raleigh Durham got 7 inches of snow, and before you laugh and eyeroll, know that snow removal equipment in NC consists of leaf blowers.  They don’t know what rock salt is.  (Unless they retired there from the northeast to escape the snow, and I assure you no one thought to pack a couple 40 pound bags…)

I’m suppose to fly Thursday to Denver.  That’s not going to happen, since we are experiencing rain all day, and then the temps drop sharply and everything changes to snow, and then all hell breaks loose because all the melt and flooding from today’s rain will freeze over and NJ will be one giant skating rink.  And I don’t own skates…  So I’m leaving for the airport shortly, after changing my plane tickets to fly out today, hoping I have a lovely day off tomorrow sitting in Boulder Co, instead of at Newark airport.  Crossing my fingers. They are having a snow storm as I write.  I have two large and long back to back classes to teach in Colorado.  We can’t cancel.

The good news, if I make it there, is that Boulder is suppose to see 60 degrees by the weekend.  And sun.  Glorious sun.  I’m psyched…

Wish me luck…

Stay tuned…

Boulder….heck….I am just hoping to make the 35 min. drive to Mendham (here in NJ) for the Crackle Weave workshop tomorrow. Grateful at least, driving home from the intro lecture tonight, that all this pouring rain is not snow….yet. And half the country is a mess.

Good luck in your traveling.

The class is awesome. I’ve been anticipating it for months and it has far surpassed my high expectations. It so wonderful to be able to begin sewing on the right (walking) foot. 😛

And now I know where my waist is because ‘Daryl Lancaster told me so’.

I’m so happy. I look for ways to love myself and I nailed it this year.

Love, Jamie. (Hopelovepeace on Ravelry)

I hope you made it in an uneventful way, and had a wonderful time! I have a weaving question. My husband treated me to one of the little structo looms. It actually still has the original card board packaging on the reed! I plan to use it for samples, before dressing my Harrisville T36. I know you use these little looms in your classes. Any suggestions besides sampling to use this little guy for? Thanks!
