Out the door...

I'm killing a few minutes before I leave for Phoenix.  I have time to meet B for lunch before I head to Detroit to catch my plane, but he's not out of class for another 45 minutes so I have a bit.

I'm anxious about this trip.  I hate being gone for so long, but I'm sure it will go by fast.  I'm staying at a fun little resort on the north end of the city, attending Greenbuild during the week, and hopefully will have time to visit the botanical garden and do some sightseeing in the evenings.  Saturday I'm renting a car and driving to Yuma to see my mom, which will be an adventure!  But I'm looking forward to just hanging out with her.  I'm taking advantage of it though, and having her teach me how to do applique too.

I made a point of packing my SLR, so I'll take some good pics to share.  Speaking of which, I have a profile on I Heart Faces now, and also on Flickr, in case anyone wants to keep up with my pics there.

Looks like my timing is perfect though - the 70-degree weather we were having has suddenly turned into more typical November weather - 50-something and rainy.  Yuck.  I'm glad I finally relented and packed my bathing suit!

  1. Have a good flight. Looking forward to what pictures you come back with.

    If you haven't heard of it, you might want to check out the Embroiderers' Guild of America. http://www.egausa.org/

    There are groups all over the place. I belong to one in Florida. Great for a place to go be with other people who like sewing. I'm learning a lot of surface embroidery that I never even thought I could do.

    Good that you'll get to spend time with your mom. I'm lucky at the moment that I still live in the same town with mine, but that might change in the next year.
