Software and a learning curve

In January I took a job as a CSR for the Cover Oregon call center in Salem.   The computer program was one of the most challenging programs I have ever used.  So if you read about the difficulties in the papers about the  software and the organization in the paper,  they are pretty much true.     I was 4th to get laid off from the 15 individuals in my training group.    Getting paid through the staffing agency was a nightmare.

I did learn a lot about the affordable health care act.  

And more

I have also worked lots more this winter and it is nice to get caught up financially.   After working with some individuals and their families and dealing with drama within.  I will be just working on,the weekends with two clients.   The next several months will be busy.    I also hope to do some volunteer work.    

These are the cheater panels I found and made lap quilts for Sammy and Rowan.    I enjoyed our FaceTime last Saturday and got to watch as Sam opened the boxes.    Love the technology of watching them.   How I wish this was available when mom was still here.

And a few other projects

 Mature bald eagle and last years baby.   I love seeing all of the different raptors here in the Williamette valley.

On a quilting note...

Where is time going?

It has been a while since I updated my blog.    So many things going on as usual.

The Pynch family lost out much LOVED aunt Bonnie.   I've stopped myself from picking up the phone and calling her on more than one occasion.    The memorial service was huge in Roseburg,  over 700 people attending.    God bless her family as they mourn this wonderful  wife, mother and grandmother.  

I made a trip to see my dad.  We had lunch at his favorite place Captains Choice.

  He is doing so good at 90 years old.  Yes, the wheels of his truck do go round and round.
