COMPLETED: #31 Get a Full Time Job

Just this morning I accepted an English teaching position at a wonderful non-profit alternative high school. The job is not full time, but I've decided to cross this one off as completed simply because of the fact that the job is totally rewarding, pays pretty well, and gives me an opportunity to do something I love and am good at. No more sitting behind a desk typing other people's notes for me!

COMPLETED: #25 Send a random present to someone "just because"

A friend of mine expressed interest in starting a bakery and not long after I was flipping through a random wholesale catalog and came across these:

I knew she had to have them :-)

COMPLETED - 47. Teach a jewelry design course

This summer I managed to meet this goal. In January, I set up three classes at local community colleges to teach jewelry design. The first class, in July, was to a 55+ class and they did a wonderful job:


The second class was also a 55+ class which took place in August and the students worked on more difficult techniques. In August I taught a huge class of 16 students in Celtic Jewelry design. I wish I'd taken pictures of the things they made because they walked out with absolutely stunning pieces.

My next class is in October and then I have a Parent/Child class in November :)
