Great news. My office isn’t going to be closed! I’ve suspected this for several months, especially after we got new computers in January. I’m going to continue taking classes though, because I don’t ever want to feel occupationally vulnerable again.
You with the sad eyes don’t be discouraged
I realize it’s hard to take courage
In a world full of people, you can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you can make you feel so small
But I see your true colors shining through
I see your true colors and that’s why I love you
Lyric from Cyndi Lauper, True Colors

yaaaaaaaaay!!!!!! i’m soooooo happy for you!!!! p.s. i thought i had a redirect on totallylike.me, but yes i’m starting over with wordpress, the people have voted, good to see you my love
lol once i realized peeps could see the site, i had to put up milo and the new theme in record time… frankly i’m relieved to be back at wordpress, it’s a bummer that i have to start over, can i swear on your blog? hahahaha @#$% squarespace!!!!!!
thanks, i haven’t even customized the slideshow yet, i’m not in the mood for changing around my site… it’s not my clever design idea, it’s a very cool wordpress photoblogging theme called platinum press pro, costs a little bit but so worth it… thanks for being so supportive my dear!!!
if your nose was on your forehead, all the stenches in the world would be wooshed past your eyes and make them water, tonight my hubby was snoring on the couch, and he filled the living room with the stink of his ashtray breath lol i’m so sensitive to that smell now!
hahahaha you are the only one who caught me with my pants down, don’t see you in months and the instant i install, there you are
that’s so funny, coz i used to use the vaporub every night before i went to bed coz of hubby’s breath… but milo isn’t our dog, he was Jerry’s and they moved away, sparky is the dog that has to sleep with hubby’s breath
you must be soooo happy your work isn’t closing down!! i’m happy for you, i wish we could get hubby back to work…
I’m so relieved to hear that this morning and hope this means you can have more time to shower us with your wit and wisdom.
It’s never so much being occupationally vulnerable as it is feeling economically so. In a world environmentally at risk, where there’s already so much stuff, we should be granted the means to simply live and explore the beauty we hold in common.
Glad to hear your employer is staying open. Keep up the classes. Humans are like intellectual sharks: if we stop learning, we die.
Fantastic news, coffee and clonazepam go gloriously together, keep it together girl,, we miss youx
THat is very good news, but you should always have another skill up your sleeve and anyway it is rejuvenating to do something different. Love, love, love the image of the dancers.
Valium and coffee. that would be Yin and Yang then
Great that you’ll still have a job..and also – to continue training. And – I had to laugh at the valium and coffee joke – HA!
Nice choices
lol the polkadots are already gone, manuela was inculcating me with the ‘less is more’ philosophy
Hey Sera, glad to hear the good news. The job situation on this side of the pond is terrible with so many businesses still closing despite an upturn in the economy. Valium and coffee… words every time for me. Oh and a little Viagra, but that’s an entirely different matter altogether!
Your workplace not shutting down is a good thing, but training for new and often better opportunities is a great thing. Keep up the great thing!
I like the image – looks like a school dance.
Hey, it’s been a while! Glad to see you are still around, I missed your comics.
I achieve work and life balance by drinking a lot of Coke Zero and making lists of lists of things to do.
Hip hip hooray!
Good balance. And glad you’re not under an imminent threat to livliehood…
I think that balance advice is so 60s.
So glad to hear your office isn’t closing. And I admire your commitment to continue on with classes. Who knows where that will take you. Awesome.
And I love your true colors. I also love mine. I should ‘take courage’ more often. Thanks for the reminder.
And I’m glad you’re back. Missed you!
Good for you to have another gig,
Just waiting in the wings,
Whatever life may bring,
Warm heart now free from dread.
Hope yopur life is also becoming more balanced
best wishes
Fucking hate the corporate machine. They toy with us miserable mortals.
thank you darlin’, yes my niece is beautiful, and those polka dots were up there for about 10 minutes total, but of course you just happened to drop by lol
the whole employment thing can be so stressful…. glad you feel more secure now. i have this theory that we’re a bit like plants – when we stop growing, we start dying. learning is always good… and lifelong learning makes your brain healthier in your elder years.
oh my gosh, fart lips would turn my cat into the tazmanian devil hahahaaha… oh and my husband wears MY shoes, i wonder which one of us looks bad coz of that lol
Balance. Is that something like moderation? All the extremes getting equalized out into a place of Peace and Quietness. Thank God your office will remain open but I like that you’re also being smart about your options.
Now I’ll be singing Cyndi Lauper all day!
yep, might as well learn as much skills as you could..
