Crazy Curves Class in September



These ladies took my Crazy Curves class in September. They each did a great job of picking out colors and sewing curves. We had a good time. I have not got much sewing done in the last 2 months, so I enjoyed teaching a class. This was a one day class. I am getting a little sewing time these days. I had to start sewing so that I could relax from all the stress of school. I am doing better at not being so stressed as it was making me sick.
Sometimes you have to say " I am not perfect and it is okay" School has been better since discovering this principle. Some times it is the letting go that helps.

I want to Say I'm Sorry to a Few Friends

I've been so busy with school that I have not sent e-mails to the friends who posted notes. I want you to know that I do thank you for your comments. Also I'm having trouble sending e-mails from my laptop. I will do better at responding. I hope to start blogging more often.

School in Your Forties

I'm still adjusting to my new life as a student. I'm posting because my Mom said " I look an you have not posted since August 18" So here I am letting those, who stop by know what's up. The first week was horrible to say the least. The second went much better. The third week I had a meltdown. I'm not much of a writer, my English class has a paper due every week.(stress!!!) The teacher informed us a last week "Write a paper and plan on a 7-10 minute presentation in front of class. This is 10% of your grade. 1 minute to long or short and it counts off" Can you feel my pain. I'll be doing mine Thursday will not know on what till Tuesday what it is about. I have come to grip with this!
I do need advice......in high school I was a good student with little effort. That is not the case at 42...suggestions on studying habits. I need to learn 300 drugs names, generics,class,and uses. Plus a million other terms. This is just one class,I have 6. I'm struggling with this,but not giving up.
