Back to Work

Yesterday I had no sub jobs for this week. Then suddenly I have jobs to work 1/2 day today and tomorrow, full day Friday, and 1/2 day next Tues. Hope I can do all of that. At least it is finally warm enough that the kids will be able to play outside at recess time. Those indoor days are too much!

Marilyn came over last night and we played 2 games of scrabble. She beat me both times. I used to be really good at that game. (I blamed it on the brain injury.) Guess I need more practice.

My Life in the Fast Lane

I promised Karla a new post, so here it is.

Yesterday was mine and Jim's 40th anniversary. My friend Marilyn and I went out to dinner. Friday Cheryl and I went to a movie, 27 Dresses and then to supper. They are trying to help me pull out of my depression.

I finally called my lawyer today to see what's happening. So he's going to e-mail Dr. M and get things going. I am so ready to get on with my life. I feel like I am stuck in a rut and can't get out.

It's been so cold out lately that I haven't even taken Waldo outside very much. He's pretty content to lie on the couch and snooze.

Today I did some mending: a blanket, some dog toys, and a rug. I've been working on my rowing machine, too. Figured exercise should help with my mood.

I've only been able to work 2 half days a week. That's all my stamina will allow. It's true what they say that Social Sec. isn't enough to make ends meet. I love teaching, I just wish I could handle more days to earn enough money.
