The Good Life

It has now been about a month and a half since I lost my job, which is hard to believe because the time has flown!  This has been the best month and a half I have had since graduating high school.  I was a bit apprehensive when I lost my job with the thought of all that free time, but I have enjoyed every minute of it.

 My scrap afghan!

I know that I should be using my free time to find an internship, but instead I've been using it to finish some projects.  So far I have already finished an afghan for my sister-in-law and started and finished one out of scrap yarn that I had.  I have also almost finished a cross stitch project I started about 3 years ago, but haven't had time to work on.  The other day, I got a book that has 300 different crochet stitches so I can make up my own patterns.  I am very excited to try out the different designs, and I already know what I'm going to do for my first project from it!

So far I haven't had any luck with an internship, but that's okay.  I've pretty much given up hope that the people at Myriad Genetics will call, but I just applied to Nelson Labs.  I interviewed there last summer, and I think they really liked me there, so I am hopeful that they will at least call me for an interview.
