I have had people want me to spin yarn from their pet's fur so they will have something to always keep, but I'm not sure if that is the area you are heading to. I will think about this some more.<br />Congrats on your outline being accepted, I'm sure your work will be fascinating!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17188002198879523397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176758332072334714.post-63225947073492433352011-02-07T13:59:00.584-05:002011-02-07T13:59:00.584-05:00yes i'd love to keep track of my progress here...yes i'd love to keep track of my progress here! as much as my readers can stand anyway. it's something to do with this space, ya know? ;) <br /><br />right now i'm just reading, and going to a local craft guild meeting this week. then i have a meeting with my two advisors next week, and hopefully one with another grad student whose expertise is in 19th century samplers. i'm still needing to recruit a third committee member, which isn't turning out to be as easy as i'd like..<br /><br />i loved that bit that i posted on tumblr and wish there was a lot more info like that. truly, mourning practices and attitudes towards death have changed so dramatically in the last century. i have no idea how or if most people mourn today, do you? is it mostly through therapy, retail therapy, painkillers?Drucillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03228978343783804866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176758332072334714.post-15113789776904743642011-02-07T11:53:04.575-05:002011-02-07T11:53:04.575-05:00Will you be charting any of your progress here, or...Will you be charting any of your progress here, or does it all need to be kept under wraps until you've finished? <br /><br />When you posted that research text with the hightlighted "memory" and "quilt," (on Tumblr) it got me thinking about how we mourn in this society now. We are short on ritual these days.→lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08370320985396856773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176758332072334714.post-61877763110342498602011-02-05T22:20:02.844-05:002011-02-05T22:20:02.844-05:00YAY!! congrats on getting approved!
