<p class="x_yiv0834490180MsoNormal">Terry P is the volunteer host of the Friday night craft hangout. I appreciate her giving her time to it. The hangout is at 6 PM on Fridays.
</p>
<p class="x_yiv0834490180MsoNormal">Terry says that, for a while now, only one other person has been coming by, and sometimes no one.
</p>
<p class="x_yiv0834490180MsoNormal">Can we change that, or has the hangout run its course?
</p>
<p class="x_yiv0834490180MsoNormal">It can be fun to hang out with other crafters, play show-and-tell with our projects, and chat about this and that. It’s more fun in person, but can be OK online or on the phone.
</p>
<p class="x_yiv0834490180MsoNormal">6 PM is a terrible time for me. I’m fixing or eating dinner, taking care of the dogs, etc. For me, 7 PM would be better. But I realize I’m on the East coast, and people in other places might like a different time. What
time might be good? A little later? Some time in the morning, or the afternoon? I know a morning or afternoon time would cut out people who are working. Are those people interested in the hangout? When I was working, at the end of the day I just wanted
to flop down and do something mindless, like watch TV. Though I had my knitting in hand while I was watching.
</p>
<p class="x_yiv0834490180MsoNormal">Anyway, do people have any ideas? If no one says anything, I will assume there is no more interest in the hangout, and Terry will be free to spend her Friday evening in any way she likes. Though I know she enjoys hanging
out when people hang out with her.</p>
