Estrogen Enhanced Meltdown

I was hyper-emotional last night, overwhelmed over my work situation. The poor man had to live through it. I left a job that I was not unhappy at, for one that is not shaping up as expected. For either party. They have a perception of me that I think will not be erased. The fact that they know I'm involved with my book project can't be helping. I can't go back to the old job (would love to go back) because the position has already been filled. So my next task will be to find employment elsewhere. As soon as possible. And keep to myself as much as possible who I really am. I say this now in a more rational frame of mind. I got my period today after over a week of being late. As uncomfortable as it can be, it was a relief. All that pent up hormone released. Being closer to 50 then 40, the M word looms. Not the subject of musicals. I don't get it--"Menopause--the Musical." I wouldn't see that! I also saw about two minutes of the Vagina Monologues on HBO. That was all I could stand. Not too much entertainment in either topic, I think. Just keep from getting more facial hair, that's all I ask.
Pictured here is Klaralund, fusion knitting using Noro Silk Garden #86. I have since made another in #203. The body is done in the round, because I wanted the stripes to match on the sides. The stockinette portion of the sleeves was knit using my machine, and the live stitches were used to complete the sleeves on either side in garter stitch. Also in the shot is a sweater from Vogue Knitting, fall 1998, in Rowan Calmer. This sweater has an interesting traveling rib. I will make this pattern again. The other piece is a dog sweater from Cornelia Tuttle Hamilton, book 2.
