Helping a Friend with a Problem
Tanya was troubled. She wrote of having kimono scraps and not knowing what to to do with them. This struck me as a pretty good problem to have. I wrote and told her that if she wanted to trade scraps to let me know what she would like in exchange. Saturday's mail brought a wonderful squishie from Japan. Inside were this splendid assortment of kimono scraps with a note of apology: "They are not all cotton." As if that mattered!
. . . .
I know what to do with these scraps: For a start, fondle them for a good long time! Thank you, dear Tanya!

Greece? Wow! Maybe by the time you get back I'll have my blog up and running. I started one on Yahoo -- a benefit of membership in the National Federation of the Blind of PA, but I don't really know what I'm doing yet. By that time you will have no doubt received your three requests for 'PIF. Unless you want to take this as a request with the promise that I will do it.
My blog is going to be documenting my efforts to promote the 'Sound in Sight CD for the Performing Arts Division of NFB and whatever else I do to raise awareness about the seventy percent "un"employment rate among healthy working age Americans who happen to be blind -- yeah, it's really that bad.
Rich & I walked into the local Interfaith thrift store with my latest, hand-knitted lap warmer today. Hand-knitted? And, there was me thinking people used needles. they've been giving away my creations for years to elderly folks in the area. I was sad to hear that my old friend Deborah is no longer the director, but when the new director saw me, she said I was just the person she was looking for -- I don't hear that very often. Turns out she wants me to come do a presentation at the Rotary club. I was hoping to talk them into having me back so I could tell them about the CD project, but now I don't have to talk them into it. I'll save all my powers of persuasion for getting them to sponsor me by buying a few CD's I can use for promotions.
How did you get into Harry Potter, by the way? Hope this isn't too long.
Love,
Donna
