Earlier this week I was frustrated after having to frog the Whirl blanket for ar least the sixth time. I thought, if only I could have a chunk of time with no distractions to really focus on it and get past whatever silly mistake I was making.
At the end of that work day my manager told me they were letting me go, effective immediately. Suddenly, I have all the time in the world.
I am so disappointed that the house/wedding will likely have to wait even longer now, and I’m not looking forward to interviews or being the newbie AGAIN, but I have to say this is the least anxious I’ve been for months and months.
Plus I’m now onto the text part of the Whirl blanket, with no more than a few stitches needing to be tinked along the way. Bright side.

I will be paid for the next month, which is making the search for a new job slightly less stressful. I just hope I can find something by then.

You’ve had so many more than your fair share of job shutdowns: were I a believer I would pray you have a lengthy turn of really good luck. I wish you that, dear Hannah !

I’m still searching – great for knitting time, but not so good for being able to afford stuff. Sigh.
