Let the event anxiety commence!

This week has been a whole lot of crazy, and not really the good kind. But! It’s almost Friday when I’ll be heading to West Virginia for the WV Pop Con! With The Underbridge Society I will be vending over the weekend at a lovely convention in the hopes of having some fun and making some money!

The new found object piece is coming along slowly. Today was spent at Canal Quarter Arts slow stitching a leaf stitch in some lovely hand dyed thread, while the blackwork gets no love until next week. Mostly I’ve been busy making puppets and dealing with my inventory in preparations for the weekend. Now I’ve done what I can do and it’s time to load it up and head out!

Once Pop Con is finished I’ve got three weeks before the Grassroots Festival at Hurkamp Park downtown Fredericksburg. :-D. Busy! Busy! Busy! I’m looking forward to this event. It will be back to our roots as The Underbridge Society with just John and I displaying and attending. I’m hoping it will be a lovely evening in good company with good music and lovely people.

On the non studio front I’ve started strength training and pilates under a personal trainer. I had my first sessions this week and found that I love pilates! Even if the reforemer machine made me sea sick! I’m hoping this will be the boost and initiative to get back on the trails. I miss walking. I know my dogs do. Speaking of dogs… Echo and I will be taking an obedience class together with 2speakdog, We love their approach and were the only trainers I could find that did group classes and didn’t want to take your dog and board them while they trained them… and don’t use any prong or electric collars.

Well. That’s all the gnews that is gnews as Gary Gnu used to say!
