On My Way Again

I'm off the San Diego today and then McAllen, Tx on Tuesday. It's going to be a busy week but I'm looking forward to it. I've only been home 2 weeks...not enough time to finish spring cleaning but at least I started!

I need to work in the garden...the beds need to be cleaned up a bit more but will have to wait...gotta get the inside finished first, then move to the garden...maybe week after next...I just hope it's not too hot by then. We've had some great temps so far and I'm loving it.

More later...

Crochet as Environmental Activism

Click on the title to this post for the link.

Pulled this from the comments/the about section of the TED clip: Margaret Wertheim leads a project to re-create the creatures of the coral reefs using a crochet technique invented by a mathematician -- celebrating the amazements of the reef, and deep-diving into the hyperbolic geometry underlying coral creation.

As a needle crafter and a lover of math (mind you I say lover of math but definitely no expert, just love great writings or talks on math and find it facinating), this clip is wonderful. I'm also very interested in environmental activism when it drives to positive change and enlightening solutions or awareness.

One week home

I've been back a week from the Philippines...seems unreal now almost. I was there 3 weeks but they flew by. I'm so glad I wasn't in class...just don't think I can handle going to school when I'm overseas and working nights...there never seemed to be enough time for the things I needed to do much less if I'd had class. I start back May 5...both excited and wondering about all the travel, work, new projects and school, plus a relationship...how I'm going to find time for it all!!!

Ok, I've not mentioned the relationship before...well, kinda wanted to keep it private and still do but suffice to say, there is one.
