i thought that it would be an appropriate title for this one.skies are clear now.

why is it that we get into such funks? whomever responds with a good answer gets the prize.

good news! good news!

the internet textile community is beyond amazing.

i wrote a message on facebook lamenting the fact that i had not received communication from the organising committee at lodz triennial regarding the reception of my piece. i knew it had gotten there, but as my contact sent me a frantic e- mail saying that it was past due freak out is an understatement. 

people started passing the message around. at the same time  my friend holly bradshaw communicated with a friend of hers who had a contact who... you get the drift.

holly's friend Susan Hart Henegar,who coincidentally participated in a show i also participated in 2001, located someone at the lodz museum, requested photos  then  sent me a message with the photos. 

 et voila mesdames! here's the  living proof ,the end to a nightmare that has lasted a year all together.

i have a feeling i was dealing  all this time with an intern and not someone from the  museum staff as the lack of professionalism was truly appalling.

was it shakespeare who said all's well that ends well? :) must have been as he said everything.

preparing,repairing and getting ready

latest one from the inner landscapes series. so far this one's my favorite. 

adding a parenthesis here:

weird picasa!! the photo came out very blurry so i changed hosts and the photo came up ok . closing parenthesis.

yesterday was spent planing the camino trip i even had to open a g mail account to be able to download apps for my phone, something i had resisted with delight. why give in now? weight. i really want to carry a light load and that will do away with a guidebook.phone i need to carry anyway and as we all know books are heavy, especially carrying them  on one's back.

i wasn't counting  the anticipation and planning of the trip and it's almost exhilarating.
going to decathlon this morning to get my walkies and socks. learning about how not to get blisters. such science!
