Thrown Backwards

The hard drive is gone: All the data, all the pictures, all the files. For reasons best not discussed, everything got overwritten last weekend. Well well. Take the disk in for repair ($$$)? Or take it as a heavenly gift to start fresh? Having just a weekend without the internet was a trip to the past. After a day of itchy withdrawal, a feeling of calm and focus descended. I rather like that.

Today I drop off work for a pop-up artist's gallery in Concord, MA, then teach. Hope I don't get caught in the tsunami of folks going from HERE to THERE on Thanksgiving eve. Also a bunch of scarves are waiting to be washed out, for the holiday shows coming the next three weekends. I'm so glad my sister-in-law handles Thanksgiving!
