Its more a formality as we have a merger looming at work and we can apply for jobs in the new regime but i dont know if i want to. Anyway, im starting to look for jobs and aiming higher. Im a Development officer for a charity but im going to start looking for Project Manager positions. I do have management responsibilities as part of my current remit. My boss is encouraging me to aim high and i know she'll help me with it. I could do it, im just wary of the huge responsibility that comes with Project Management of/in a Charity and the kinds of stress/pressure that could bring.
As an update to my previous post....bad ass stitchy woman removed herself/was removed from the group. Thank goodness!

Oh I am so glad that woman has been removed! That is how it should be!
Glad you got your pattern. When you are a little quieter, after your family visit, we shall start. I need to go find the pattern, find some yummy fabric and pull some threads. Yippee! A SAL with a good stitchy friend.
Aim high and kock em dead. I'll follow your lead, ok :)
Congrats on the fresh stash... and the babysitters. :)
Good luck!!! It's a lot of potential stress (with a higher position) but you could also make a lot of positive change. Best wishes!!
I love both those patterns, they should be fun to stitch.
Great stash!
Good luck on the job hunt & changes!
Great stash Cheryl! I added that new CCN one to my stash right after the holidays. It's got my favourite colours and a snowman. Works for me! It's nice that you and Kathy are doing the SAL.
Good luck with your job hunt. A higher position may bring more stress but it's also a change and sometimes that's all we need.
Love the sampler. Worked in Projects most of my working life to director level and loved it. Had a tee shirt for when I gave presentations "change is good- you go first". I love change but not a lot of people do. In project work liking/loving and embracing change is a good thing. Good luck...aim high!!
Gread sampler - I'm glad to hear that things were sorted out in your stitching group.
Absolutely great new stash. Enkioy the new projects.
I wish you all the best for your decision regarding your next job.
Ooh, I love your new stash. I have Snowflake Serenade on my wish list, and the BAP is gorgeous.
Sorry about your redundancy, but think positive, I was made redundant 2 years ago and it was actually the best thing to ever happen to me in the long run.
Great stash. That Jingle bell one is so pretty.
