What to say?

This happens every time I wander away from the blog for a while.
When I come back, I'm not quite sure what to say.

"I'm alive."
"I'm still here."
"Life is pretty good."
"Nope, not kidnapped by aliens…"
"I've been thinking about you…"
{Ok, kinda sounding like a Hallmark card now…}

So…I'm doing ok {actually better than ok}. The DH and the cats are fine (most of them are sleeping just now - the cats are sleeping, not the DH). The Little Brother is doing great managing his diabetes. {woot!}

I don't have a class this summer for my Fiber Arts degree but I am registered for the Fall Semester.
AND…I'm looking into options for a part time job so I can have some funds coming in and so I can still finish my degree. Wish me luck.

I've been pretty focused on school stuff - a lot of ceramics and weaving lab time along with supplemental weaving explorations at home. But I've learned a lot, I've met some wonderful people and I'm looking forward to more life/educational adventures.
And I'm looking forward to sharing some of these adventures on the blog.

Since pictures are worth a thousand words, I'll say a little with these photos:
{Please pardon the slightly blurry iTouch photos.}

Will this become a bag?

Gryphon thinks he's going to "help" me with this warp.

After turning in all my Spring Semester projects,
I celebrated that evening by knitting lace.
(The "Bigger on the Inside" shawl.)

More to come.
I hope life has been treating you very well.
