I sew, I make patchwork quilts, little and large. I also make bags- makeup bags, jewellery rolls, crayon/pencil rolls. Dolls in fabric and knitted bears. I knit little shoes with fabric flowers.
I used to be a nursery nurse and was a year off qualifying as a teacher when I ran out of money. Then I was a foster carer of screwed up teenagers, then I saw the light and gave it up and got my sense of humour back. I'm afraid I'm not one of those 'special' people, despite having worked with kids all my life and also living with a social worker.
Sewing I love, now if I can just make a living from it, so really its not 'work', cos I don't earn. Now if anyone out there wants to give us a hand setting up a website I would be very grateful!

My first career was as a PE teacher
My second was far too long in the Civil Service. Thankless job. Eventually went part time when we bought the kennels.
My third was as a boarding kennels and cattery proprietor with hubby. 20 years of pure enjoyment.
My fourth is as a retired lady of leisure.

Still ROFLOL anyway. Ouch, this hurts so much
I am a homemaker. I used to work in a bank and then as a part-time bookkeeper.

Before that, work sciving 'professional student'. Such happy memories! Time of my life!!!
Always wanted to be a writer. The pension won, in the end.

Consulting hydrogeologist in the mining industry, work for a large international company but have been self-employed and joint partner of own company in the past. It's taken me to all sorts of places and I've been very lucky but I'm looking forward to retiring! Especially when so many of my friends in other jobs - and younger! - already have. So much to do!
