Keep sane this semester

On Monday, I'll be starting my graduate studies at the University of Pittsburgh.  Woo hoo!

And I'm trying to overcome my ADD, non-structured, completely random nature but actually scheduling a crafting event on a regular basis.  There a super little coffee shop in my neighborhood called the Sugar Cafe.  They are really supportive of community based groups and so I'll be hosting a yarn-in every-other week there.  Maybe every week if I can find a co-host.  Yay! Community yarn-ins!

Bring the joy of yarn to my hood

Now that the semester is over, I need to build in a little more structure to my "free time." So I'm resurrecting my hopes for a local yarny group in my neighborhood. I had one meeting (pre-football season) last fall and we had a lot of fun. However, we lost our location to the football game and the restaurant's big-screen TV. I needed a new home and thankfully Sugar Cafe opened just down the main drag in my hood of Dormont. After getting approval, Kelly James, owner and yummy-food-creator, has open her doors to this "crafty idea." The first gathering will be on June 5th at 2pm.

If you are interested in coming (yet, may not be free on Sunday), leave a comment so I can add you to the mailing list for future events.
