you can’t say that at work (and the nearly-white quilt)

One of my coworkers and his wife are expecting their second child in a few months.  It’s become a frequent topic of conversation.  Another coworker is out on maternity leave, due back in February.  I inadvertently caused some confusion at the lunch table when I oh-so-smoothly transitioned from coworker #1 to #2 by saying “Speaking of babies…”  Whoops.  Gotta be more careful about that when you’re a newlywed.  Everyone was very disappointed. 

The new job, by the way, is yet to be determined but may involve many of the same people.  If you keep the same desk and lunch buddies is it really a new job at all?   

Speaking of babies* It’s time for a nearly-white quilt update.  I’ve been working diligently, quilting square after square in the evenings when I should have been updating my resume.  I made a chart to keep me motivated, but it’s looking a little slim so far. 

 

I do enjoy the process - covered in quilt, half-watching television alongside DJ, our dog positioned exactly between us.  Good thing, this could take a while. 

 

*Of course not.  Although I probably shouldn’t do that too often, especially while playing Whack-A-Mole with my job.

    There is nothing I like more than white on white. Except babies, that is:).

    I think this is very exciting about the job. I want to hear more. The quilt looks lovely.
