That’s what I’m exploring now. What I’m excited about?
Opportunities to demonstrate how an organ is put together…..literally! Our AGOchapter has access to an Orgelkids kit. I get to work with it next month. I’m
already trying to convince people here in Monterey that their group would love
to have an opportunity to build and play an organ. Gotta check out the video!
A break-through on
my design project. I haven’t written much about it here as it was still in the
“that’s a cool idea……is it possible?” stage.
Our “house upgrade”
(Contractors try to make it less scary with less anxiety. They really do.) is
progressing to the painting stage. That should be less banging and noise, but
more smells.
Of course, when you
get stressed, you get careless. I found I can tat with a blood blister on my
left hand. As long as it isn’t on my index finger.
Interesting question. Perhaps we need to be less stressed about being stressed and accept it as part of excitement!
ReplyDeleteFunny how we can adapt to whatever happens and keep tatting. The Orgelkids kit sounds VERY exciting. Wish I could be a part of it! :)

Hmm, interesting! I usually don't associate excitement with stress. But I can think of situations where some stress may creep in as in meeting a deadline, striving for perfection, etc.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised recently when a young entrepreneur interviewed our Prime Minister and used the word anxiety for a natural nervousness ... it just felt too strong for something we took in our stride. Generation gap?
It can be generational. Hunger to my Grandmother, who raised children on a farm during the Depression, meant a different thing to her. Something to keep in mind when reading older texts and in newer conversations.
DeleteOh, I wouldn't be able to tat coz I use that finger for my pinch 😁 Good for you!
ReplyDeleteLol. It has opened conversation leading to inclusivity among tatters. Can we tell how the knot is made when examining the lace?
