We have a little branch of the library here that is in danger of closing due to budget concerns and a drop in patronage. I am thinking of asking to organize a little knitting group to meet there for an hour every other week. It will help them and allow me to meet up with some likeminded people. Plus there is a great bench that runs along an old fashioned window that is just begging for knitters or handwork stitchers to sit there and work. Perhaps you could find a way to do the same.
And I get the blahs too when I think I should be enthused about quilting. For me, when my life gets too hectic, I just can't concentrate. So I do a lot of reading in my free time and some knitting that I don't have to think about as much.
