Well, my dad is 85 and it’s time to sell the farm where I grew up.
Just the usual Circle of Life business again!
It’s a 150 year old house on 12 acres with outbuildings, meadows, and

It’s been about five weeks since I had eye surgery (scleral buckle and vitrectomy),

Here is what I see with both eyes (getting better!)
And here is how it looks with my right eye (the recovering one).
This morning I received an email about the The Handmade Market.
I checked their website and noticed that, as of May 2010, they no designers who
work in Knitting, Needle Felting, Yarn, or another fiber-related art.
Nor does their Application seem to anticipate such applicants.
However, this might be a golden opportunity for the right person!
Even if the Handmade Market has added fiber-y artists since their web list was posted,
this area is still likely to be much less competitive and crowded than some other crafts.
Who wants to apply first?
