In 6 more weeks I should know more about a new job I am interested in. There is a woman who is retiring after 35 years. They gave me a large portion of her work. Some people already assume that I have her job. I am eagerly cooperating with everything I have been given to do. The retiree will be gone in two weeks. As slow as the management moves at my job….it will take at least a month more for them to decide on what they will do to replace her. Of course they won’t hurry…..they’ve only known about this retirement for 6 months. I have my fingers crossed.

Drunken sisters.....fond memory?
23 months ago
I got drunk and high with my sister many times, years and years ago. Except for the one time that she fell off a boating dock and almost drowned, I don’t remember any of the other times we got drunk together. I DO remember all the times we went to the show, out to eat, shopping, to classes, driving, emergency rooms, graduations and holiday meals.
I love my sister more and more every day. I couldn’t say that back when I was drinking.
Writing

What am I good at? I say writing. I’m probably not good at it, but I sure love it. I’ve always loved to see MY words in writing.
