I haven't been posting so much lately. I think I've been pretty rushed with the smaller things in life that just HAVE to be done, and I've been somewhat depressed.
I learned one day while putting laundry on the line that one of the windows for my much-anticipated sun room had blown over and broken. That's just another hurdle to have to overcome before I can have something I badly want. It seems that there's always something like that.
I bought Steve a tee-shirt that says, "If it ain't broken, It ain't ours". I think that's a mantra around here. There's just way too many unfinished jobs, projects, and things that have been over-looked or not done.
I hate to do without things that we could easily have, but I also hate to see all these un-finished projects.
Lynn took my advice and is posting more on her site. I like to know what's happening with her and Jim.
Joan told me that someone had called her at home to say that I was working at the store again, and that I would have to stop. Well, I have, and within hours, you could easily tell that my efforts were again needed. There was clothing items, rugs, and toilet paper all over the floors. Balloons were flying all about the store. There's a 'fence' of netting that is supposed to be the place for them, but children had got hold of the strings and took the balloons all over the place, then left them to fly about when they left the store.
Well, it's someone else's job now.
I'm sorry that all my efforts were for nothing.
Elaine and Beth are (I think) genuinely sorry that I'm gone. I don't know about anyone else.
I came home last night and washed my hair and went to bed. I didn't sleep well at all.
I'm supposed to go to Dr. Duck this afternoon to get more prescriptions, and I know the Ambien will help.
I can't concentrate without some rest, and I'm getting very little.
The sun is out, but it's cold.

OK, I am not as eloquent (50 cent word) as you are with words and my words do not flow as smoothly as yours do when it comes to words of encouragemnt but that being said.......
As far as the Family Dollar goes, I hate that you can't go up there and help anymore, you were probably the best nonemployee they had since the store opened. Reading everything that you would write about the store and what you would notice, heck I would have hired you in a heart beat! I would have killed to have an employee like you....Unfortunately jealousy and woman and retail do not mix and all it takes is ONE PERSON to cause the trouble! People feel threatened even when there is nothing to feel threatened about.....or they are just not doing "their" job and don't want someone drawing attention to that fact! I could be WAY OFF on all my retail ranting but just had to say it.....THEIR LOSS!!
As you would tell me, one project at a time....You have such a creative mind and a body that wants to always be doing something. I am really sorry about the window..:(
I know this won't make you feel better but I need 10 windows for my house because they have such bad wood rot....I pray everyday that they don't fall out....SEE NOW DON'T YOU FEEL BETTER ABOUT YOUR 1 WINDOW??? I know it doesn't help you but I tried to make you smile....hahahaha
Is there an Amtrack train station near you? I mean I am sure there is one in Knoxville, would you happen to know where it is???
As for the little things in life that HAVE to be done, the one thing that HAS to be done is, you taking care of yourself!!! It's times like this that I wish we lived closer...I could come drive you nuts..haha
Spring is coming and pretty soon we will both be able to live outside where we belong during the day....I wish I could say all the wonderful words that you do to me that lift me up....just know that I think about you everyday and keep you in my prayers!!
I love you,
me
