Sounds like you've got a good start on a successful summer. Hope to see your paintings as well as your finished UFOs.

Have fun. Don't trouble trouble til trouble trouble's you!!!

Sounds great! Enjoy, and good luck on your job.

So what do you do for a day job? Teachers go back the BEGINNING of September. CIA maybe?

Enjoy your summer!

I vote you look for a cheap treadle and take it to the cabin:):)

Oh! I love that saying...." I have never heard that one before:)

Wow, things finished and more time ahead to enjoy...great! Please post photos of your paintings as well as the finished sewing projects. Just remember, the Lord will provide so have faith and have fun.

Please enjoy your summer off with pay. Lucky girl. As to September - as you say, cross that bridge when you get to it. Not to be cynical, but half pay is better than no pay, I know that from experience. I was laid off twice within one year, 2 different companies, but still the first times I had ever been laid off. However, 2 days before the second lay off date, my husband went into the hospital with severe vertigo. I spent the next 6 -8 months taking him here, there and everywhere - doctors, hospitals, tests, etc., etc. Hang in there, enjoy your summer, remember - life is what happens when you're making other plans. Use that time to do what you love, painting and quilts, it doesn't get much better than that. Enjoy, without guilt.

its your thing ..do what you want to do !! SUMMER off .. and sewing, crafts whatever strikes your fancy !! Have fun !!
