Progress on Crafts, Decor, and Job Hunting!

Making progress on my epic Halloween diamond painting.  Five of the 8 panels are complete! 

I’m taking a short break to swap to my small diamond painting for Drills and Chills.  It’s a Halloween event where you can win prizes!  This painting wouldn’t count because you couldn’t start until September.  So I’m doing this small one from Michael’s:

You might think I’ll never finish both before Halloween, but I have some time off coming up.  Possibly.  Very likely. 

I might have found a job!  It will be as a contract to the government.  I’ll be doing hardware configuration management in aviation.  It’s working for a temporary boss I had. 

The benefits aren’t as good, but they’re better than unemployment!  And I love my boss.  She won’t be my boss boss cause I’ll be a contractor again.  But my boss only cares that I make her happy, so SCORE. 

Problem is less PTO and not fronting me ANY.  So starting late October with 0 PTO.  Awesome. 

HOWEVER, it is just in time for me to leave my job with a payout incentive to quit.  Right in the nick of time!  I have to choose by Tuesday.  They wanted to try to get me the offer Friday, but it didn’t come so hopefully tomorrow. 

I’m going to take 2 weeks off.  STAYCATION!
