Lots of Change!

So, as many of you know, I am now working on my 6th month of pregnancy.   I found out I was pregnant in July.  Funny thing, looks like my last post was posted around the time I conceived the little boy we are having in March. 

We have been busy with lots of life planning and changing.   I had to take another "real" job in order to get hours for mat leave, which was working in a kitchen.  But this job is fairly physically demanding, so at the advice of my midwife, I gave my two weeks notice just yesterday.   I can say that I am grateful for the work I did find, considering there is not a lot of jobs out here in the Kootenays.  Unfortunately it won't make my medical/mat leave worth a lot, having worked for just over minimum wage, but at least it will be something.
So what does this all mean for hoops?  Well, I will continue to donate hoops when I can (to those who need them), but fire dancing and performing is definitely out of the plan for a while, as the fumes are not good for me or the baby during pregnancy or breast feeding.   As far as making hoops and selling them, this will probably be put on hold for a while as I have to focus on the baby and getting us moved into our new nest! 
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any needs or questions related to hoops, though.  I can get you in touch with the right people or refer you to other teachers, hoop makers, etc.  :) Winter time is generally when I am not selling any hoops anyhow, but if you have some questions or need some advice, just send me an email.
Happy hooping, and sorry for the delay in updating!

Angelica.
