Just Don't Kill Yourself!

Had a homeowner say this to me today, while sweating my ass off cleaning their house...' just don't kill yourself, ok?' I wasn't offended. I just thought the rest of the time I was sweeping and wiping away someone else's dirt that I suspect she never said that statement to anyone and meant it. I began to think about how that statement permeated my thoughts for years and years with my husband. 'Just don't kill yourself'. And, I DID mean it. I meant it everytime I said it.

Had a good long talk with one of my sisters last night on the phone. My own daughter was surrounded with her own friends, and my son, with his. It was a nice vibe to have each of us yakking with who we wanted to yak with. Anyway, this sister and I are both struggling to figure out what the next step is with, oh, every part of our lives. Jobs. Weight. Hair color. Religious affiliation. What's next?

I have about 1,000 more summer schedules to mail out in the next few days. I can't drag people to come to our center for tutoring. They either will, or they won't.

I wish I had a shower in my office. I need it!

Well, back to interviews and flyers.

Peace
