It’s Here!

I’m sure, like me, you’ve all be waiting with bated breath for the GA schedule. And here it is! http://www.uua.org/ga/ga06/program.pdf. Aside from attending all sorts of exciting and fun workshops, I’ll also be volunteering at the UUFETA* (Unitarian Universalists for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) booth and hocking, er, I mean selling stoles made by my mom! She has volunteered to donate part of the proceeds to UUEFTA (the booth is expensive - I think around $800!) and then she’ll keep the rest. This is her attempt at a post-retirement job. She retires in December. When I get a chance, I’ll post pictures of her wares. She is really an amazing seamstress (and I’m not just saying that because she is my mom) and has taken her stole-making career seriously and done all sorts of research about stoles and Unitarian Universalism. Need a stole? My Mama will make one of the most beautiful ones you’ve ever seen for cheaper than you can get them elsewhere. More on the stoles, GA and…. our new foster kittens (!!!) soon. Enjoy the beautiful weather. Elizabeth :)

*Officially, UUFETA is named UFETA. However, as one little way to guard against what I see to be an unfortunate trend of Unitarian Universalism being shortended to Unitarianism, I call it UUFETA to guard agianst the slippery slope of one U. Not that it makes a big difference - but it makes me feel like I’m doing my little part. :)
