I have joined forces!

With fall around the corner I have been encouraging my student's to donate some charity knitting. They agreed and we have started some squares for Warm Up America! and we plan to donate a whole blanket by this winter. One of my students Carolyn had showed some interest in Chemo Hats in memory of her mother, so I hopped on line and started searching. I found a foundation called The Hat Box Foundation (you should check out their site) I emailed them intending on some friendly chats and the ladies there are so helpful and nice. So I was brain storming one day and I decided to see if they were interested in joining forces. So now ... I am excited to announce that I have joined forces with The Hat Box Foundation! My Etsy Store will soon be up and running and I will be donating a hat to The Hat Box Foundation for every sale that I make. I am looking forward to helping them reach their goal for 2009, which is to reach all 50 states!

With all that said ... classes resume for me on Monday. I have mixed feelings about this. I am excited to return to school after a year off but (the infamous but) I don't want it to soak up all my extra time. I wish someone would hurry up and invent the time machine already! I need to stop the clock .. do what I need to do and start it again, keep dreaming right?
