Hellooooo, anybody out there? Remember me? I’ve been MIA for awhile thanks to a comatose laptop and a crazy busy life.
I want to thank, from the very bottom of my heart, all of you who sent me messages over the last couple months checking on me. I can find no was to express how truly awesome this made me feel – to know that there are kindred spirits out there who care. XoXoXo Hugs & Kisses XoXoXo
I’ve got a lot of catching up to do to see how all of you are and what you’ve been up to!
The last couple of months have been a whirlwind of activity with the kids – my oldest has headed back to California again, but he’ll be back soon for a summer visit. My youngest has been turned down for special services at school at our THIRD child study. The kid falls thru the cracks – he’s got a learning disability that keeps him from maintaining speed with his peers, but not quite slow enough to qualify for placement in a special class. My middle son remains my constant – steadily humming through his sophomore year, happy just to be skateboarding at the beach any chance he gets.
I’ve started crafting & crocheting on a much more consistent basis too. It really is my saving grace when there is chaos all around. And by chaos, I don’t mean anything bad! Just life. It brings me so much peace. I don’t know if it’s the repetitive stitching and flow of yarn thru my fingers, the constant counting the doesn’t leave room for any other thoughts, or the end result that does the trick – but hey, who needs to dissect where peace comes from right?
I’m also in the beginning stages of planning the first Stitch N’ Pitch in Southeastern Virginia – heck, maybe even the whole state! Right now it’s all about forming a committee to help me with the details so we can turn this into something awesome and get a little recognition to the craft. Waiting for someone from the Norfolk Tides to contact me back has me anxious. How cool with this event be if we can make it happen????
If any of you have planned one or been to one – whether at a major league park or minor – please please please tell me about it!
Love you! Mean it!
