At the end of 2007 I left the reporting arena to work with my husband. I'm in charge of designing covers and inside pages for the books he prints.
I still write for some Spanish newspapers a weekly column. And I have a published book that compiles one year of those columns.
But as much as I love my job, the truth is I'm always counting the hours left before I can come back to my sewing machine. lol.
Can you put a sewing machine at work & cross discipline? I mean you do know the owner quite well :p Tell him you'd be more productive & happy!

I wish I knew Spanish...it would SO come in handy in my neck of the woods!
