RSC in purple....

I did manage to find a little purple to play with this week. Two scrappy purple houses with yellow windows.


Head on over to the RSC Challenge and see what other purple is popping up today. 

For me... I'll be heading on a jet plane with some stitching... which happens to have shades of purple! My 1857 appliqué blocks are traveling with me to VT so I can get a computer and quick training for my new job I start Monday. I'm working as a computer programmer part time  for a former client of mine when I was consulting before kids. It is scheduled for the next 4 months mostly while the kids are in school - 20 hours a week. I'll  be working from home other than the first couple of days on site. It worked out great... as Today is Mom's birthday and I'll be there to celebrate with her. We'll also go see my niece play saxophone tonight in Barre with The Limes. I can't wait. Happy Birthday Mom and I'll see you soon!
Wish Greg luck - I was home with Aidan yesterday - fever and chills with a terrible sounding cough. Hopefully he recovers quickly and Em doesn't get it (or me!).

Have a wonderful trip and best of luck on the new job. I did transcription from home for years and it was great. You can spend more time with the kids. God bless you.
