Can I get more time, please?
By Brianna on Jun 1, 2008 in Life Stuff, Talk
I’m so busy with this new job–well, no more than anyone with a full-time job, but I haven’t had one of those in two years, so it feels like a serious restraint on my time! But the job is good. I love working for Six Apart, and working from home is awesome, as are my coworkers.
My coworkers, especially, are something I can feel thankful for. They were very supportive when C. and I were dealing with a sick Remix the first couple weeks of my new job. They were even more supportive when C. and I had to make that decision that no one wants to make about/for their animals.
We said a final goodbye to Remix on the 22nd of May, which both feels like a lifetime ago and just this morning. *sigh* What are we to do but move forward? It’s hard when we think we see him in one of his usual napping spots. The mind playing tricks, surely, and we haven’t really forgotten that he’s gone, but sometimes our hearts clutch and our breath leaves us, then we’re reminded all over again that he didn’t come home with us, and we won’t be seeing him again.

I’ve crocheted a bit, but nothing specific. I won some yarn from a Giveaway, some lovely handspun in colors that remind me of rainbow sherbert. It’s kind of scratchy–ok, totally scratchy–so I’m going to felt it and, hopefully, turn it into a little bag. I love the colors a lot, so it should be a good little summer handbag.
The podcast has been on my mind a lot, as have the video tutorials. My schedule with work, up until starting tomorrow, hasn’t been formally set, but once I get into the groove of the new schedule (3pm-12pm EST/EDT), I should be able to start figuring out when it’ll be best to record and shoot. I hope soon. I’m feeling kind of lost without talking to you. Pathetic of me, right? I might need to scale back to once a month until I get my footing again.
Hope you’re all well, enjoying the weather wherever you are, and are having a great time crocheting something fun.

I’m so sorry about your lovely cat. I had the same experience with one of my cats and for weeks afterward, I could still feel him next to me in bed at night. I’ve wanted to let you know that I never miss one of your podcasts. I love listening to you and also appreciate the how to tips. I know you are busy with your new job, but I hope you’ll find some time to continue the podcasts.
