Sorry for not posting for three weeks, but it’s just one of those things. My life has been consumed with work problems and solutions. Today I begin training the new person who will take my place. I have only two weeks left to teach that person everything. It’s been very stressful and busy at work and at home. I am definitely looking forward to working only two days per week. I actually worked only two days per week for years, until I let them talk me into helping out full-time “temporarily” which turned into full-time for two years!
My DH had a bad report on his cancer, so I worried and worried and worried. It turned out to be a “false positive”….so we are in the clear again for now. I feel as though I worried twenty years off my life, but perhaps I can gain it back again. SMILE. Life sure has it’s ups and downs. Thank you to all of you who sent emails….I love reading your uplifting notes.
The weather has turned nicer now, and I will be able to work off some of that stress and frustration in my garden. It’s soothing for the soul.
I managed to escape from the merry-go-round and spent a “little” time with my friends, just because they are such super people to be with. And I needed their company so very much. We went out for dinner and then saw the play Funny Girl…it was a delicious dinner and a delightful play. Thank you Pat and Joan…I don’t know what I would do without you. And thank you Maggy for being at the other end of my email 4,000 miles away. My hands have not been idle…still working on unfinished needlework projects. And I did join the Homewood Embroiderer’s Guild this month. The group is lovely and inspiring.
I’ll post some new photos soon. Thanks for stopping in for a visit.
For now….amities, Averyclaire
I confess to spending a good part (actually MOST) of my weekend being depressed over the overwhelming busy-ness of my job. What was 2 half days per week for ten years, went quickly into three full days and now five full days. And actually I take a LOT of work home with me especially on the weekends. I retired fully ten years ago, was called back to work “just a little” and wonder how I got to be where I am today. I agreed to a special project last Fall…which is now finished, but five other projects have taken its place.!! I thought with the economy I’d just ride it out….but this weekend I began to wonder.
