I quit my job working in a lab for the city to go back to school to be an early childhood teacher. I got a new job working at my sons' daycare because they would pay for my education. I lasted almost 6 months there before I finally had enough. Bad management, lack of support, etc. It was not the kids AT ALL. Which brings us to today. I decided to quit work last night; today is my first day as a stay at home mom. What I should have done was give my two weeks notice or even let them know yesterday when I left that I wasn't coming back. But, I didn't. And while I feel guilty for going about it the wrong way, it wasn't worth the trouble and hassle. I feel more guilty for leaving my coworkers to more stress and for leaving the kids and their families. But, it's time to move on. For now, I'm going to focus on school and my boys. My older son is 4 so I'm going to look into doing preschool at home with him. Hopefully in January I can start a Master's program in teaching. So, there it is in a nutshell!
So, now, I'm hoping to get at least a little more time to put back into my Etsy shop. We'll see! Here is what I am working on:
It will soon be a kitchen towel in black and orange. I'm hoping to do a range of colors, specifically fall and holiday right now. Also, hoping to make matching washcloths!
Feel free to link up your WIP blog posts-I look forward to seeing what everyone is up to! Also, be sure to check out Freshly Pieced's blog to see what she and other talented artists are up to!
