About a year later

It has been about a year since I decide to set up a shop in the garage, and what a year it has been.

Well, not that it has been particularly eventful. But a year ago I was pretty significantly in debt, looking at the end of a crappy job, and not really sure what I was doing with myself.

And now I am mostly debt free, looking at the end of a decent but low paying job, and still not really sure what I will be doing with myself.

Grad school is still on the docket. Looking at Fall 2012. But the job situation is still very much in the air. I thought I had a job for a year, but 2 weeks in the boss approached me to say that they do not have as much business as they originally planned on. Now I have 2 more weeks, and then I am back to looking. Sigh.

The plus side is that my woodworking is getting much much better. I am slowly accumulating tools, and my skills are developing. I might try to make some things, and see if i can sell them to support myself through the winter. I really tried to take some pictures of my completed work, since this blog has absolutely none of my finished pieces, but it seems my poor lens decided it did not want to focus. I will retake them, and post them soon.
