Quilts of 2011

I am still learning but I relieze I haven't post my two lap quilts I made last year!.

The first one in my atomic moneys.

It is another wall challenge from my old job. 

"Chimpanzees for a Nuclear Tomorrow"

The Chimps, atom bomb cloud and the cornor squares are all spray painted.

 This is the back.  The camera is spray painted to.

 This is from a beginners quilting class I took through my local guild.

The back.

I am A machine!

Since my recent unemployment I have been job searching & walling in my room. 

I have changed it up a little. 

I set up a crafts table and taken on some quilting projects!  

I found some cheap charm packs from Tuesday Mornings.

I got two and embarked on this quilt tops.

 I think the brown bit looks like a litte bat peeking out.

 I cut the 5 x5 squares in half & created these from

 I got them put together.  I didn't have any fabric for a good border.

I also am a little broke so I don't have the anything for backing  so this will be a top until further money ...

This was a one day project!

Stop the Anti Piracy Act

Unemployment disaster or fresh start?

I am now unemployed and more depressed as ever! 

 I have always enjoyed being a part of something!

I think that is why I would enjoy living at a commune.  

Don't get me wrong I enjoy technology and alone time.

Well here is week last week:

I have decide to take some time off time recording and blogging for the next few weeks in order to do some internal searching and figure out what to do with my new "opportunity."

Week 5 A.K.A. X Mas

 I did a lot of running around for X Mas this week.  

I still got in a fair amount of work to! Plus!

The job search has lagged but I have been trying to tie up any lose ends I have for gotten before I leave..

I had a nice X Mas though

From Dustin:  

From Dad:

A donation towards my Kindle and Gift Cards (including my latest addiction Papa Murphy's)!

From Mom:

My awesome cover

and the Kindle Fire! 

YAY!

I was great to see my family and I had  a great weekend.

Dustin and I have a tradition to go to 2 movies on X Mas day

This year was:

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo which was AMAZING!

I can't wait for the next 2 I need to get to reading!

Tin Tin which visially AMAZING but I felt the story was slow 

but 

I feel I will grow to love it after the next 2.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Do you ever feel like everyone else is planning your life.
One thing I hate is trying to be fixed!
I may be cracked but not broken!

I have gone through rough times before but I will figure it out!
The goodbyes have been hard but I know all of my clients will be fine.
 I will be forgotten before long...
I know that this wasn't the best laid plan but I had enough.
I'm an adult...
In theory and can made this choice on my own.
I am not sure what to do but will try different things to find what fits me.
My job has been poisoning me for years.

Changes

I gave my two weeks notice...  Friday.  

 It was a long time coming. 

 I need to move on but two of my co workers aren't ready.  

The main reason my exit was hasten (meaning without a other position prepared)
was because they wanted me to work with someone I couldn't go back to. 

 Two co worker has offered to work with said person for me so I can stay.

I need to move on and it was hard enough  giving my notice today. 

I thought the hard part would be to tell my clients I'm leaving, I didn't bet on the staff.

I took a week of  internal searching to leave today.

The hardest part of leaving is the fact that it will cause a need for other decisions...

That I will mull over later!
I have been planing for what to do so not  fall even further into my whirl wind depression.
Honestly it is a very good thing that I was raised Catholic so exiting this world at own hand is not on the table due to the threat of eternal damnation
and
I'm to pretty to die!
