Remember how I was going to be starting a new teaching job this coming Monday? Well, they cancelled it due to low enrollment (not enough kids flunking biology, apparently!), so I am offically unemployed. I've been waiting on this for months; ever since I started feeling better, and now, well - I'm sort of all sixes.
I could try and get another part time job. I could keep on working full time in the studio. I could put my time into working on the house. I could do some of each.
It just feels very odd to not have anything lined up. I will probably be able to go back to the afterschool program in September, but that is 2.5 months from now. We could use better cashflow, certainly. Kevin thinks I should start selling my hand dyed and painted fabrics! Needless to say, he has more faith in my work than I do!
Ah well, back to the sewing machine! I'm working up a baby quilt from my abortive experiment with that foldy 9 patch technique. I had the fabric cut, and one of my Drs is having a baby and moving, so why not? Nothing like a little mindless piecing to keep the hands occupied while the mind spins...
I'm sorry the job fell through. That sucks.
ReplyDeleteI think that Kevin has a good point. Try selling your fabrics! You never know! Sometimes you need someone's else's faith in you to push you to see it in yourself...
