[Nfb-krafters-korner] FW: question about potholder looms

[Lighthouse]

Hi from Rochester,

I called right away and ordered the loom for my grandson.  It came today, 
and I can't wait to help him with it.  My younger grandson came home from 
preschool today with a stomach bug, so I don't want to get near any of them 
until everybody is well.  I am going back to work tomorrow despite being 
very tired.  We'll see how it goes.  The good news is that if I can make it 
through 2 days, I'll have a 3 day weekend to recharge.

Bernice and the sweet Octane.
