  • Begin Again

    Begin Again

      Weaving, like life, is an endless round of finishing things, then beginning again. So it was today. I wove the last two towels and cut the warp off the loom.  When I looked at how much warp was left, it was touch and go if I’d get another towel, so I decided to ‘sacrifice’…

  • Expert

    Expert

      It’s been interesting the past few years, to see how society has evolved from trusting scientists to arguing with them.  As if a few searches on You Tube or Google equals an ‘expert’ level of knowledge about something. I hesitated for a long time to accept the mantle of ‘expert’ when it comes to…

  • Counting the Days

    Counting the Days

      It is exactly four weeks until we leave for Vancouver.  The trip will be extended with several necessary things happening. Probably the most important is the steroid injection which should relieve the pain I deal with daily, and which will allow me to record the two classes for SOS without the fog of pain/chemicals. …

  • The Bitter Taste of Disappointment

    The Bitter Taste of Disappointment

      Have you ever wanted something so badly you could taste it? Sure you have.  We all have. I’ve had my share of disappointment, more often than I would ever admit.  I make mistakes, none of them particularly earth shattering and I roll on to the next pretty quickly. But other times?  Other times the…

  • Why Write?

    Why Write?

        Instead of getting dressed (yes, I’m still in my jammies) and getting on with my day (finish pressing those damp towels, finish threading the Megado, write for a couple of projects waiting in the queue) I find myself thinking about writing in general, and why *I* write in particular. Well, first of all,…

  • Little by Little

    Little by Little

      Little by little I am being nudged into the 21st century.  I now have a QR code for my classes at the School of Sweet Georgia.  Now to figure out how to put it onto my website and my blogspot home page. I’m still struggling to learn how to use my ‘smart’ phone, in…

  • Ch-ch-ch-changes

    Ch-ch-ch-changes

      One of the things on my ‘to-be-done’ list was a re-design of my website (currently under construction).  It took forever before I could even begin to think about it, but after my ‘retirement’ (for certain values of) it was becoming clear that I really needed to update my site. I had considered just dumping…

  • Endless Possibilities

    Endless Possibilities

      At times the possibilities are so enormous it is hard to know what to do.  At times, the best approach is to just…do something.  Action in one direction will sometimes make what needs to happen become clearer, even if that direction wasn’t the actual direction I considered heading. Recently I speculated about writing another…
