Why, yes, yes i do still live here!
A lot has happened since i last posted. I think my last post was a sad panda post. My job was horrible. I hate where i'm living.... blah blah blah... See.. sad panda!
As of a week ago today, I quit my job. I didn't even give 2 weeks. I emailed my boss with my immediate resignation. The biggest weight of my life was lifted. I feel amazing.. well except for my back. It's been out since i quit. I think i was holding myself together with sheer will power. Once i lost that weight, everything collapsed.. and my back goes out. It's doing better today, BONUS!! But it gave me the chance to update my resume and send it out to about a dozen places. I haven't heard anything from them, but that's ok. I've got a plan :)
I will make this work.. MY WAY!
My mom is pissed. My husband is happy. I'm extremely happy. I'm back to being me.
My plan. Get a temporary job (it's a good season for that). Then at the beginning of the year, I will go to Alabama Shakespeare Festival (YAY!! I love that place) for 3.5 months. Get paid almost double of what the evil job was paying. When that ends, unemployment for a month or so AND selling stuff on etsy. Then to Chautauqua Opera in NY for a few months. That takes me up to August of next year. I'm good with that. It's doing what i love. It's good money. It's good people.
The down side. I will miss my husband and dogs. Tons.
That's why i took the factory job. I wanted to stay home. Start a family. But that job was killing me. You know how the mythos of faeries are allergic to Iron... yeah... that was me to a factory job. I thought i could do it, but it seems that is a resounding NO.
But i'm positive. I've been making stuff. And we've been saving..no, hoarding money like crazy. So i think it's a good life change. Christmas will be a homemade christmas. We are hosting
greenepona and her fiance for Thanksgiving. SO it's gonna be Fantastic!! I'm more excited than i've ever been. And hopefully I can start posting some sewing blog stuff on here. I haven't done that in eons!
SO HAPPY THURSDAY Everyone!!
