Spring Break
Spring break begins. I’ve been sick for over a week now. Mostly, I’m coughing up a lung. It started as just a fatigued feeling. Then a sore throat. Then a cough. Then the runny nose came. Now I’ve got everything going. I survived on drugs and my own adrenaline. This week I ran a three-day course on e-textiles. I had a fabulous group of kids. They all got along. They were all fun in different ways and they all worked really hard. After we completed the kits I’d purchased, I asked them to design their own projects, giving them the option of completing a bracelet I’d created based on this design. Quite a few chose the bracelet, but a few others came up with their own creations. We ran out of conductive thread. I attempted to fedex more, but accidentally shipped via ground instead of next day. Now I have more for next year. Below are the pictures from our three-day sewing extravaganza:
I’m planning to stay mostly offline over the break. For the next couple of days, I’m going to sleep and read, and probably watch bad tv. I do want to do some work over the break–just tackling some programming problems I haven’t had time to look at–but mostly, I hope to truly escape, even though I’ll be at home. I’ll see you all on the other side.
