I thought I would share the things that I’ve been working on today. This is the cover of the booklet I’m creating for Grandma’s birthday.

Going Visiting
Besides spending a relaxing day at Woodthrush Woods, my mom, Rob and I went to Grandma’s house. I spent the rest of the day working on the book I’m doing for Grandma’s 100th birthday. She lives by herself, still has a valid driver’s license and can thread a needle. Remarkable.

Safe arrival
After two hours driving from Nashville, with no sign of ice, I have made it safely to Chattanooga. Having greeted my parents, but not my husband, I now go to bed to find him. Good night all.
Washington again
I don’t like this airport. Or at least, I don’t like Concourse G. It is a warehouse that seems designed to hold cattle more than people. Ick. But my flight is not cancelled even though it is snowing here. Tally ho!
La Guardia
I should have known that things were about to go horribly wrong when I made my train and bus connections to the La Guardia airport with no trouble. The Atlanta airport is shut down. Rob got in right to Atlanta right before it closed. I have been rerouted to Nashville, by my request, and will
Princeton
We just put the set model up and it’s huge. Because of the workshop I’m basically building my model 1′ to 1′ instead of 1″ to 1′.
Somerset, NJ
I’ve come out to Chris Parks’ house because of problems with the truck. Poor Dave, who was assigned to come pick up the set from the studio space in NYC had the worst driving karma. It took him six hours to make the hour and ten minute trip from Princeton. Since I had to come
Hitting the wall
Emily and I had a breakthrough yesterday, but then today I felt like I ran smack into a wall of creativity. I finally realized that it had two causes. 1) I was trying to design and build the show at the same time. 2) Emily tends towards abstraction in her design while I tend towards
Laundry
I have clean clothes. It’s a beautiful thing. We went to the laundry mat this morning before we started working. While the clothes were running we went across the street for a muffin and coffee.
A brief recap
The design work is going well although Emily and I are both exhausted from the long hours. She had her wisdom teeth pulled a couple of days before I got here and it was a major job. (I, of course, will not go into the gory details here.) She went into the surgeon today and
New York
And only an hour late! I met up with Emily with no problems and now I’m at her place in Brooklyn.
Shawna Boundy’s Birthday!
I should have mentioned this earlier today, but it’s my sister-in-law’s birthday.

Atlanta
Well, I’ve made it to the Atlanta airport and my flight Chicago is supposed to be leaving on time. I don’t know what will happen with the flight from Chicago to NYC. We’ll see how that goes. Meanwhile, here’s a photo from DC that I forgot to upload on Friday. It’s an interesting juxtaposition, I
