Playing Around

This week I started a new job that I absolutely love. I am the equivalent of a child working in a candy store and I have never practiced more self control than I have in the 10 or so hours I've worked this week. The quilt shop that I now work part-time is a quaint and charming place on the square in Rockwall called Texas Quiltworks. It is owned by a sweet couple, Glen and Judy, who have been in business for about six years.

Part of my new job will be to maintain the store blog. The store website is about to be revamped, so Glen also wanted the blog revamped. That's how I found typepad.com. They currently use Google's blog product but think typepad may be better. So we've started a free trial for the quilt shop and I also decided to try it out on a personal level. This is my very first attempt at a blog so I wanted to at least somewhat know what I was doing before putting together the store blog.

That's really what this first blog is about. It's something that I can put into the blog and see what else happens. I am struck at the similarity of the the new blog to my new job. I'm learning so much in more than one area and I am really excited about how much personal growth I will gain in the process!

By the way, be sure to check out the store website and keep checking back for the latest and greatest edition!

I am still working at the church. Still going to try to juggle it all,the yearbook, both jobs, kids. I think I may be slightly insane...
Yes, I do sew but it's been a while and I used to make quilts when my kids were younger but I'm beginning to want to take it up again. Actually, just wanting to create things for the home in general.
