the new path

Last weekend, I made myself a new black linen dress while I was working on quilts and making gifts.  I just felt the need.  And I wanted something more washable then wool.  The thing that is most different about it is the colour of the tag I put into it.  My clothes have to have tags after too many experience trying to get dressed in a tent.  Yes.  A dress in a tent.

It is nothing fancy.  Just a black linen sheath dress.  I wore it my last day to work.  I got given a bad time about wearing black.  Nope.  I just like wearing solids and dark colours.  Black fits that.

I walked out of the building unemployed.  I found out Friday I start with Patagonia on the 7th of November.  Nothing I have ever done before in a place I have never lived.  Reno.  Closer to the small bear.  Hopefully a much happier situation because I will be doing more what I wish to do.  I will be working in their repair shop.  I am also going to start my own business but now it does not feel quite so important that it suceeds immediately. 

It will be interesting in working in that type of situation again.  It has been over 25 years.  Hourly.  Benefits.  What strange things these are.  It will be very interesting so see where life leads me next.
