Sounds like a pretty good arrangement!

I don’t have a favorite team that I support so I went to the Thrift store, which soon is going out of business. I chose a t-shirt which looked like Texas A & M on the front. On the back it says Joe College Pro-Sports day. I just thought they could not spell. So I bought the shirt and proudly wore it to work. A baggage handler walked by my window in the bookshop and read my shirt. He asked me if I knew what it said? It spelled…eATMe or eat me. Fortunately no cannibals showed up for a free feed. Happy EasTer.

And since everybody liked that arrangement, that’s what we did–a lot of the time. :-)

somewhere in this period I decided to leave a voluntary job (16yrs) and everyone thought I was nuts, you’ll miss it. Well I’ve not gone to the organisation or the space for now 2months and I absolutely DO NOT MISS it at all…it’s kind of liberating no having to think about orders/stock/fussy shoppers/mean spirited others.

then I decided that the organisation didn’t need me either (general events) so I’m taking the rest of this year as a sabbatical and will decide at subs time next year whether I need them :-)

again people worrying about my social needs…but for now I’m enjoying just being me :-)

I’ve ESCAPED…
