So instead of selling overpriced shit to people who don’t want it, I’m going to a home for women with developmental disabilities five days a week second shift, so I even get to go out and do things at night, and still get shit done during the day. It’s amazing!

How I did it: There is nothing like the company that a lazy old dog provides. That and gardening; even plants seem to have a personality when you work with them every day. Different creatures, plus the silence and solace that lets you think about everything are all the tools you need. Cleaning sprees though the house to loud music are acceptable vacations. And very necessary. Be and love you first. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I took everything I learned in kindergarden and threw it out the window and under the wheels of a bus. I comprimised every principle I worked so hard to master. Read how I did it…
I have even switched to local when it is available. Word out to the farmers and crafters and whatever if you make it, and I need it, and I can get it locally, I’ll pay for it. Adams Fairacre Farms ROCKS
I was aware a year ago that my store would be closing in 2010, and I knew the rules for transfer and severance. I made plans to come back to NY, I want to go back to college and get a degree in sociology. I want to know why we are the way we are, why we do what we do. I hung on at work until they had to pay me to leave. I took the money, paid off any debts, paid bills ahead of time for the next six months. There isn’t much on the Eastern Shore for adults returning to school. It took three months to find a place to rent in New York. I am arranging to have my home rented, I hope it works out. I have enrolled as a student in Ulster but I am unable to attend because I have to wait a year for in state tuition. They won’t even provide assistance, because I am on unemployment from Maryland. Maryland won’t provide assistance because I am going to school in NY. So…now I get to sit here, collect unemployment, and wait around instead of going back to school. Step one feels like a big step backwards.
