The universe listened once again

Last year I mentioned that I’d followed a former co-worker’s advice to put things I really wanted out there in the universe. Circumstances worked out so that I was able to join hubby in early retirement back In May 2022. I’d told several folks I was looking for a Singer 301 LBOW at a good price and I now have Miss Carmella, who is an absolute joy to sew on.

Well, I put it out there that I would be interested in returning to work part-time once our big trips were behind us. Today, I received an offer to teach crafting/sewing classes one morning per week for a local K-5 homeschool consortium. This is the only job offer I’ve received since retirement that has me excited about returning to work. The head of school is a retired principal from my former school district. She is one of my favorite principals. She’s even willing to work around my upcoming Alaska trip if I’ll start August 21st. Still want to talk things over with hubby before I accept because this will mean we’ll be tied to an academic calendar once again through early May. Add this to what I currently have in the works to teach at the quilt museum and I’ll have met my goal to work part-time 2 days per week.

And Sadie gets to go with me to the school gig. Bonus!
