News Flash!

I've moved.

I've moved west of the Mississippi. This is big.

I'm now in Austin, Texas, courtesy of my very generous in-laws. Tim is job-hunting.
My girls are all starting back in school tomorrow - I will actually have time without children for the first time in YEARS! And the last year they were in public school I ended up working at the school - so that makes 5 years since I've had kid-free days.

I'm making lots of stuff. Unfinished stuff, but stuff. Here are a couple of pictures:

I only brought my fused fabrics and silk paper, so I am limited in my color schemes and styles of fabric. I think that's a good thing - I think. So far, it's fine. I have very little space to work, and since at the moment I'm sharing a bedroom with Anna, I have to clean up my whole workspace every day. New concept.

In fact, I am keeping the whole house clean. And tidy. And I have to check the girls' rooms as well, since tidiness is very important to my in-laws. And you know what? I like it! I am so glad to be able to practice being neat - and I hope to gosh that I can do this in my own house when Tim gets here. I think it will require much tossing of stuff.
