Brief Drive-By

No photos, sorry.

The National Capital Cat Show was great fun this year, tho' I think the flooding may have dampened some folks spirits (and possibly kept folks away). The economy didn't help, either.

Still it was just plain fabulous to see everyone. And now we're working feverishly to put together the show for TKGA Greensboro - that ticker just keeps on ticking, dontcha know.

I thought, tho' I'd mention that I'm trying to knit a bit, on my lunchtime and when I'm having to sit and wait somewhere. I'm knitting for Vermont. I'm knitting for Warm Hats, Warm Hearts.

If you've a mind to do so, please either head over to Ravelry or to Facebook and check out the two places with detail for what's needed and how to get it there.

If you're unsure what I'm talking about...it's one word: Irene.

There's loss all around us for various reasons (drought, flood, tornado, hurricane, tsunami...) but this is the one that speaks to me loudly...It's the home of my heart, of my childhood, and I can't turn away from it.
(((hugs)))

I'm glad the show was fun, and I hope that it brought in enough to make it worthwhile AND that any leftover inventory will sell like hotcakes at the TKGA event!

Namaste

I honor the place in you,

which is of love, truth, light, and peace.

When you are centered in that place in you,

and I am centered in that place in me,

we are one.
