Another creation and Thursday night deep thoughts with RAWE...

Another one of my quilts was quilted, and Donna was nice enough to post it for me!

I made this quilt a few years ago for my grandmother, who was a quilter. She made several beautiful quilts for family and probably for friends. I loved taking my finished quilt tops over to her house to show her - one artist to another. Finishing this quilt is so bittersweet, which brings me to my first deep thought. When you have a project that means something to you, if you are making something/doing something for someone, don't put it off. This quilt is a classic example of the exact opposite of what I just told everyone not to do. I finished the top of this quilt, and then let it sit for years. Since then, Grandma passed away, and now the quilt is finally almost finished. Don't put IT off.

RAWE's deep thought number two: 

(If you care to read on - but I totally understand if you are already typing "facebook" into the http bar up above.)

So I have had a LOT of time lately to think about jobs. Where should I work? Should I try to find something part time, temp or full time? Should I look for something that will be great on a resume, or something that I am really interested in? For me, the job situation has been one of the hardest aspects of being a Navy wife. In a perfect world I would have a job that could travel with me. Something I could do that would allow me to be busy, but still have the flexibility to have weekends off to explore with Zac and when family and friends come to visit. I crave to be challenged mentally; to learn new industries and their tools - software, processes, etc. Something that is changing enough to not be boring, but not totally foreign every day. Something that allows me to interact with people. Something FUN! Any ideas? Ugh.

Until later,

RAWE
