I want to move to new york , forever

Okay , so I've been doing teacher training through Novalis institute here in Minneapolis , and I really love handwork and painting and drawing. After some observation of classrooms I realised I don't want that "8 year monkey on my back" and I want to teacher handwork and possibly early childhood. So I heard about Fiber craft studio in Chestnut Ridge , New York. And they had a weekend workshop on handwork and the incarnating child , I thought that it would be a good time to go check it out. Also this was my first solo trip without kids or my husband , really excited and scared. I got a partial scholarship , BUT that said.. I had to pay for housing , flight and food. All said and done were still struggling to regain our footing! Okay enough about the woes of privileged versus the poor. They have a dye garden people , a huge beautiful dye garden. I saw my first live eurthmy performance and it was amazing and Technicolor lighting. Before it started I looked at my new friend and we both smiled and sort of giggled. Like we were sharing this super funny secret (aka WOW this is wild!) Afterwards the five of us , some seasoned teachers , some still in training walked to the local bar called "the barn". we sat under an umbrella in the drizzle and exchanged verses , projects. So fun , walking home with flashlights! Singing in the morning , mostly about sheep. Hand workers loves love sheep , it was so funny to talk to someone and say "did you see the dye garden?!" And for them to respond "OH yeah it was soooo cool!" In non-handwork land its "oh that was nice." Its actually on the Sunbridge college campus so the bio dynamic farm is there as well. That is a bad picture of me holding a big basket of plant dye rovering in Fiber Craft studio.
