December 2005
Back in the late 90's Smoky, then oz/edm worked on a RR with several quilters including a young Andrea/NS.... a fellow Canadian quilter!
Through the many trials life had for Andrea, including divorce, losing her dad, losing her job, going back to school, moving.... a wonderful milestone has been reached!!
CONGRATULATIONS to our Grad...
Andrea Clancey, Bachelor of Administration 2005
Life should NOT be a journey to the
grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but
rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used
up, totally worn out and screaming ~ WOO HOO what a ride!"
And a more precious moment.... Andrea and Mom!!
So Andrea... what have you been up to besides school???
It has been ages since I have been involved with Fabric Stash and the RPLOTN. For the last 3 years I have had to give up many of my favourite past times, including my swaps, round robins, Secret Sisters etc. to return back to university full time. 3 long hard years later, I am happy to report I have survived!!! I am now the proud owner of a Bachelor of Business degree from Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada.
In May 2005 I took a little break after university and moved to Ottawa for a few months. I needed a small change of scenery after spending the last three years under a rock studying and virtually no life!!! I have been working a contract job with a property management company as an assistant property manager. It has been interesting and challenging work, but I loved every moment of it. On December 15th I will be moving back to St. John's, Newfoundland and will start looking for a job in my area of studies, preferably in the Human Resource Management area of business. I can't wait to move home and get things going again. Once Christmas is out of the way and I'm more settled I plan to get more involved with the RPLOTN and get back into swaps, round robins, secret sisters, and much more!
I have missed you guys so much!!! I'll see you soon in the chat room!!
Hugs
Quiltingly Yours
Andrea/NF/Can (Andrea Clancey)
