As work-life has picked up with a promotion to entry-level management, my free time is a little less. My hours have changed significantly. Once monthly is much easier to handle for now, and if I am able to tackle more. Hoping to eventually return to an every two weeks video schedule, we shall see. Although I must say it's great to be appreciated, I feel I am making more impact to help my fellow coworkers in my new role. So growth has its respective pains, but it has been well worth it. A little more stressful but equally rewarding.
After all the personal life struggles with family this past summer, will be nice to settle down into a routine once again. Would also be nice to get time to start writing a little bit every day to begin the process of making a book regarding my research on 16th Century Fashion Dolls. Also I have two dolls in my sewing bag at this point and am looking forward to assembling bodies for them and evenutally dressing them both. These ladies are darker complexion and still working out the year and the country of their dress. Right now the are also peacock birds waiting to be brought into existence, which will live in the cases with the current dolls. My other replica fashion dolls have beaded grapes in their case. Another way to decorate the spaces.My husband is not fond of tatt but it keeps our cats off the top of the DVD cabinets as perches. I have a doll and books on each, which are quite cute. We have a small wedding photo and diecast metal cars of our modern cars, which are the same model and different colors on our mantel. Per the request of the husband, nothing else goes there during the year except for Christmas time. Although the cats have found a way of getting on the mantel to perch and look at their people and surroundings. We do plan on a good size cat tree for the basement for the felines to look out and climb on, just not sure if this will help the non-perchable locations in the upstairs portion of the house?
Well, that is the update on my personal life, job, cats, and book at this point. If there is one theme for 2022 besides copious amounts of loved ones' death. The main theme for me out of all this is being grateful for the life I have and all the wonderful people and felines in it. Here is to hoping that 2023 will be better and full of adventure.Grateful,
Marrin
