If you've been following the weather news Iowa experienced a derecho this past Monday the 10th. Ames, Iowa was hit hard and other parts of Iowa hit even harder still. We got our power on Thursday afternoon and I've been playing catch up ever since.

The good news while sitting here in the dark with my tiny LED lantern, I've since ordered some LED desk lamps and a battery operated radio, I designed two new classes that I'll finish up this month. One is a hand stitching class the other is an earth pigment and plaster painting class.

Stay tuned for more updates. I'll be sharing video out takes with my paid patrons.
