the holiday season is here!

I saw some of these on the internet (albeit made with fancy glittery paper), and thought this was a craft with my style. Things I like in a project: quick to finish; easy to repeat; looks good in multiples. I'll likely never knit a sweater (or something complicated like that), but I can make 50 ornaments in an afternoon.

They even make our lovely, vintage 70s front closet doors look festive. Nothing like construction paper to class a joint up, that's what I've been saying for years.

And here is a pile of Christmas presents, waiting to be mailed back to the homeland. Funny, they also show my signature style: snowflake stencil + white paint + brown paper, over and over again. Some good news on the work front - it's not great news, so don't get too excited - I sit at P's desk, who was away at a one-year term in traffic management, and due to be back in February. However, P got the Planner I job I told you about a while ago, so that means she is definitely not coming back to her Development Tech job. That means they're going to post her job, which I can apply for. Not sure of the timeline, but hopefully it'll be posted before Christmas. Also not sure if I'll get it, but at least there's a position to aim for!

It all looks great. Being long-distance, you really have to be on the ball, eh?
