Yes, I’ve been gone for, what, more than a month. Yikes! Preparation has started for the venture in China. Departure date has moved up to the beginning of July. My wicked sister would like to see me there on the 1st of the month. Good luck to that!
CB and I decided that it would be best for him to stay in the States so that we won’t get caught in a difficult situation together if there ever will be one in the future. Not saying that there will be of course. Just don’t want to repeat the same mistake that we made with the last company (which is still struggling.) He is staying in Beverly Hills, and I can come home once in a while. 
Did you heard about the new restrictions on getting the Chinese visa? Only in effect during the Olympics. Harder to get and allows less time in China. I am actually going to play this to my advantage. hehehe Am going to set it up so that I will be home every three months or so. That would be FANTASTIC!
Anyway. I have not been crafty for a while. Went to the spinning guild meeting. (Photos coming soon.) But not much else. Yes, Ted, I am still here, and will be picking up the needles for some earnest knitting this month. 
Here are some photos that I took for Songkran, Thai New Year celebration at the temple. We held the event one week earlier so that not all temples had activities on the same day.
