[craftcollective] Craft night for Abernethy Craft Bazaar

[Val Stricklin]

Hi Kiliii,
   It's too late to reschedule this particular activity since I've  
had several rsvps from the school community, but as for other craft  
activities, we can give other times a try.  Tuesdays are sometimes okay.
   The next 5 weekends are kayak building-Yay!!!  Mondays, Wednesdays  
and Fridays I already have obligations, though not necessarily all  
evening every week in the case of Wed and Fri.  I would be more  
likely able to stop in late at an event someone else hosts on a Wed  
or Fri, but wouldn't really be able to host anything then.
   I do have a tendency to get too many pots boiling at once, and  
though I consider it the by-product of a fulfilling life, I don't  
want to drive myself too crazy.  But I also want to see you and our  
craft collective friends as much as possible!
   In January-May, weekends will be a great option, until the weather  
gets nice enough to spend all weekend in our kayaks, anyway.
   What ideas do you have for scheduling?
    Val
