Back to Work
This week has seen me working on a new cardi in decidedly unphotogenic black. Anyway, my camera batteries are dead, so no pictures of the beautiful yarn that arrived at my house this week either. (Sundara Yarn! Yarn Pirate! Yarntini!) Therefore, I give you Flickr favorites. Can't have a post without pictures.
Fantine still has not made a public appearance, since the weather has been a bit too warm for her. Hopefully, she'll soon be able to come out of hiding. I can feel fall in the air.
In bigger news, the carefree (ha!) halcyon days of stay-at-home motherhood draw to a close. Tomorrow, I'm officially going back to work. In honor of the occasion, I invite you to click the link and hear that rousing paean to the Working Girl, CAKE'S Short Skirt/Long Jacket.
EDITED TO ADD: Who says there isn't a benevolent God? I found a job, and a nanny, AND there is a new Radiohead album coming out in nine freakin' days. Life is good, people.
I am not stalking Ashley. I swear.

Hope you have a great day tomorrow, and I'm with you on hoping for sweater weather! Your working girl musical homage is much better than the one that came to my mind...Dolly Parton!
Heh--you are SO stalking me :)
Hope your fingernails shine like justice tomorrow. Use that machete to cut through some red tape, ok?
good luck with day 1 at the new job!! Take your time getting acclimated; people will understand.
Cheers to entering the working outside the home world! I'm glad everything is working out.
That song is making me smile - I used to love it but had forgotten about it! I think its a great song to hum on your way back to work - good luck!
Hi five! I start my new job tomorrow as well. Though, with you having taken your bar exam an all? I'll bet it's at the opposite ends of the economic scale...still though, I love Cake.
Good luck, though as you are fast, and thorough, and sharp as a tack, you'll be awesome.
Congratulations on the new job and nanny! Here's to lots of good things for you, including more thinking that you're not stalking Ashley (because even if you are, it's probably a good thing).
Good luck going back to work. As a committed stay-at-home mom, I have to say that starting to make my own money again (in my humble, part-time non-corporate yarny way) has been very fulfilling.
Bring home the bacon, girl!
YAY! A job, a nanny and soon a radiohead album! Life is good!
Good luck with the new job and whole going-back-to-work thing. Lucky for you to have a new Radiohead album to soothe any stressful moments.
Best of luck in your new endeavor! I start a (very) part time job next week. After 14 years of being out of the workforce, I'm more than a little nervous!
Hope the first day back is a good one!!!
Now I'm going to be singing Cake all day! I love that whole album. Best wishes as you head back to work!!
LOVE that song. Thanks for reminding me of it this morning.
Congrats on all of the huge developments!
Hooray! Sounds like your luck is changing for the better. Hope your first day went well :)
Hope your first week back is going well!!
Happy new job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats on all the good news! The gods are smiling down on you. Hope your first week is going well. It's only a matter of time before you start checking your Bloglines at work. ;-)
New Radiohead woohoo! The cool part is that you can pay whatever you want for the album. How's that for even more great news!
yay!! so glad to hear all is well! :)
