One Year Later, Still Here


A little over a year ago when I began this blog I was relieved to have  been hired by the U.S. Census Bureau. It was temporary but I had found myself without summer employment ( adjunct instructing) and it’s my nature to panic and not let spirit shake out the universe and reveal  the plan. So I was feeling pretty fortunate and found myself in an office of people many of whom were in the same predicament.  I was still thinking that I should be looking for the proverbial, conventional full-time job. Anyway the Census job lasted until the fall and fit nicely with the beginning of school and I was back to work. Three different schools, three different City’s, two States, four days. Still harboring the belief that I had to find “the job” I looked every Sunday at the jobs offered, looked at several websites and followed up on any leads that friends and family gave me. Well it’s summer again, the school work is back to one course and the ultimate job has not shown up. So what’s my point?

I don’t really want the “full-time job” I want to make a living on my terms. Dare I say it out loud. My Knitted Dreams blog was the beginning of my latest creative venture and truth be told using my creative talents is all I ever wanted to do. Much more to follow!

 

I’m Back


I created this blog just over a year ago and began talking about the my personal re-invention process. Sometime in August I stopped posting and began another blog dedicated to my love of knitting and crocheting. I have been faithfully writing that blog to this day. I am passionate about crafting and enjoy writing the blog. I had recently considered taking this one down believing that I couldn’t handle writing two. I am now thinking that I should try to keep up both.

Since this blog is about transformation I will continue to write about what that means to the best of my ability. I won’t promise to do so daily but I will make every effort to keep it fairly current. In the mean time anyone who is interested in crafts may like to read my other blog knitteddreamscrocheteddesires.
