More SN'B Venue Nightmares

Sweater Grrrl
Welll….where do I begin?

I am so stressed out right now. For those SN’B-ers who follow this thing, I got a call on Sunday from Sequoia Brewing. Evidently Feb. 8th, when S N’B was originally scheduled, is also Mardi Gras. Which means, nobody is going to want to even go near the Tower District- it’ll be insane over there.

I am seriously beginning to think that this is not meant to happen! I just don’t want people to think I am a flake- but WHY on earth didn’t Sequoia tell me that the 8th was Mardi Gras when I booked the room?

So, it’s looking like I will need to move it back to Thursday. I thought about just moving it up a week, but that means it’s a week away- and I need more time than that to get the word out.

So, therefore- the new date is February 10th! Same place, same time. I am going to need to get new flyers together and send e-mails out to everyone on my list. Hopefully, this will make things a little easier.

I am also going to advise everyone to check the site or e-mail me a week before any scheduled S N’B event. Just to hedge my bets. If this happens again, I am going to start wondering if someone has hexed us! I also need to call the Bee and make sure that the date for SN’B is corrected on their events calendar.

Other than that- busy, busy, busy. I am getting in lots of exercise, and trying to work on a multitude of projects and keep my social life humming along. I have three projects that I am carrying around with me right now- the cover project, a cape, from the latest issue of Vogue Knitting. I am using a beautiful wine red yarn to make that. I am still stalled on the mohair sweater, and of course, I am planning on making another scarf.

I am also getting ready to give 2 or 3 “quickie” knitting lessons- my friends Bobbi, Desi, and Melissa (who is also my little sis) all want to learn. And since my friend Angela is working on a project with cables- well, I was inspired to get some cable needles of my very own. So I am going to need to find a project with cables in it.
