Routine is Returning!

I’ve been finding it hard to write a blog post that isn’t one long tirade about the state of our house, the number of boxes I’ve unpacked, and how many I’ve yet to go.  I normally try to have a positive outlook on life, but this last week (and indeed, this last month) I’ve found it very hard.

But with the end of my week coming to an end, I’ve happily seemed to find that I’m carving out a routine.  I’ve been able to bike regularly, work productively, and it no longer seems like the world is coming to an end.  Well, as long as I keep the door shut to the upstairs guest bedroom, which still makes me want to weep incoherently.

So posts will be coming in a more regular manner, now.

Pardon our Interruption

As we mentioned last week, Tinking Turtle is in the midst of some pretty major changes.  We are moving the business as well as moving to a new website.  As such, postings and information may be a bit sparse over the next several weeks, but rest assured, we haven’t gone anywhere!  You can refer to our previous post linked above for any FAQs, leave us a comment here, message us on Ravelry (JenniferRaymond), or email us at tinkingturtle@gmail.com!

We’ll keep this post on top during our move.  We’ll post as we are able below, but be sure to get out there and enjoy Spring!

Best,

The Tinking Turtle team.

Changes Afoot

You might’ve noticed I’ve been a little distracted lately – and it’s been for a good reason. Michael and I will be moving to Ashland, Virginia (just north of Richmond) during the month of May.  It’s actually multi-step move, as Michael’s new job with Capital One starts at the end of April, but my obligations (and the end of our lease) hold us in the area until late May.

Now, I’m sure that you might have several questions in relation to this change, which I’ll do my best to answer here.

What will happen if I’m signed up for a class with you?
Any classes I have planned now through the end of the summer will happen as usual.  I’ll be traveling to the area regularly to teach the classes – Ashland isn’t too far for me to make the trip!

Will you be continuing to do finishing?
I will!  While the details are still be ironed out, I’ll be traveling frequently enough to the DC area that there will be regular pickups and dropoffs of work.  I’ll also be rolling out a modified pricing list that will better represent time estimates for your benefit.

Will you still be teaching in the DC area?
Yes!  For those of you who love to take my classes at Fibre Space and Woolwinders, I will be maintaining my relationship with both stores, and coming up to teach at regular intervals (at least once a month, with the exception of some summer months.


What if I want to take a private lesson with you?
I love teaching private lessons, and will continue to do so at both Woolwinders and Fibre Space.  If you are interested in taking a private lesson with me specifically, drop me a note, and I’d be happy to schedule you around my group classes.
