The wearin of the Green!

Happy St Paddy's Day from Beani and Buddy, the little dogs that always greet me when I go for a massage.


As well as it being St Paddy's Day, it's my daughter's birthday --- 27 years old today.  (Can you remember that age?)

She's thousands of miles away in Toronto, so we won't be together physically.  But together in our hearts .......  She's a darling girl! 


I'm in the process of changing my work somewhat.  Instead of working 2 office jobs, next week I cut one out and go full-time at the other.  That's very exciting for me!  I've worked 2, sometimes 3 jobs continually for the past 13 years.  And as my aging brain doesn't convert from one set of books to the other as easily as it used to, I'm really looking forward to being able to focus on just one.  

In the meantime, last week and this, I've been trying to tidy up everything at my other part-time position.  Twelve years with a most wonderful boss! So I want to leave him with all the loose ends tied up.  Mind you, for the short-term, I'm not completely leaving him:  I'll go in one evening a week to do payroll etc until he gets someone else.  

So, I've been mad juggling for the last 2 weeks, working some days 7 am to 5:30 pm, driving between jobs, eating lunch at my desk, rushing home to cook dinner, collapsing on the couch for the evening!  (Well, I guess I do that last one anyway.)  

But I'm okay.  Besides -- it's the better paying job that's now full-time ...........

so, I'll be seeing a little more green on my cheques.  
(I like the pink and brown ones best!)

So, eat something green today, drink some green beer, and I wish you all the luck of the Irish today.  I'll catch up when I can.

Such sweet little dogs. That's great to only have the one full time job soon, it will make life much easier once you are all settled in at it. My job ends May 4 and I have no idea which direction to go in. At least they gave us plenty of notice that they were closing the business.
