Great way to tie everything together... life and art, art and life. We'll be tuning in on occasion.
Sharon,
Enjoy TNNA, when you come back your work load may actually increase,have you considered that impact? You my want to share that possibility with your husband and family so they won't expect to have you all to themselves 'like it used to be'.
Sometimes I think we want to make things that last since as moms most of what we do is eaten up, worn out, soiled, used up, etc. Needle arts give us something tangible to hold and use and admire that is an item that we can say to ourselves "I made that! I designed that!". The kids will grow up and we can say "I parented them" but its not an immediate claim we can make. (I know you know this, you have reared more childen than I)
I hope you can make a podcast while you are at TNNA, or at least record your thoughts, the sights, the sounds, etc. that you can put into a future podcast.
I walked my dogs this morning as I listened to you. It gave me much to smile about, some to ponder upon, and moments of 'relating' to your home life. I constantly work towards a balanced life each week.
Hugs,
Denise

Hi there, I listened to your podcast for the first time today. I did enjoy it so much.
You (well, your child) reminded me of my teen years. I was about 13, or 14, when my mom got a part-time teaching job. It was only two or three afternoons a week. She had always been a SAHM before, and I resented it so much coming home from school and not finding here there. I've always wondered why this happened to me, even then I recognized it was sooooo unfair, so I never said anything.
Anyway, I got over it and all fine... you just reminded me of that. As children I guess we are a bit unfair to our parents! You keep the "addiction" going!
I've recently fell in love again with knitting, and can't stop now, LOL
