I AM AMAZING I GOT KINDA TIRED AFTER VACUUMING THE FAMILY ROOM ITS SO BIG AND DIRTY I EVEN SCRUBBED ALL THE SPOTS OUT SO NOW ITS CLEAN .
WE WILL HAVE TO GO TO EASTER SATURDAY VIGIL MASS WITH THE KIDS AT 800PM THYE WILL PROLLY FALL ASLEEP. THOSE TWO GOTO BED AROUND 600PM OR 7PM EVERY DAY CUZ SON GOES TO WORK ABOUT 400 OR 500AM EVERY DAY.
I LIKE TO STAY UP LATE AND WAKE UP WHEN I WAKE UP BETWEEN 700AM AND 1100 AM DEPENDS ON HOW MY BODY NEEDS IT.
WHEN YOURE RETIRED ANYTIME IS OK TO BE AWAKE OR ASLEEP.

AFTER 50 YEARS OF GETTING UP EARLY TO GO TO WORK ITS A GREAT THING.
ACTUALLY I HAD MY FIRST JOB AT 16 YRS. OOPS NOT COUNTING THE JOB BABYSITTING AT AGE 11 YRS. THAT WAS A BORE. 2 TINY TOTS AND I WAS PAID ABOUT 50 CENTS A DAY.

ANYWAYS ITS GOOD TO NOT WORK OR EVEN VOLUNTEER BECAUSE I DID ENOUGH WORK THAT VOLUNTEERS DO FOR MANY MANY YEARS.

I LEAVE VOLUNTEERING TO THOSE FOLKS WHO DIDNT DO SOCIAL WORK FOR A LIVING.

LISTENING TO PATIENTS 8 TO 10 HOURS DAILY CAN EXHAUST ANY POOR SOUL. I AM THAT. NOT TO MENTION ALL THE DOCUMENTATION I HAD TO KEEP IN ORDER TO JUSTIFY MY EXISTENCE AT WORK. UGH.

I DO THINK THAT OWNING A BOOK STORE WOULD BE NICE AND IM GLAD OBE OF MY YOUNG FRIENDS IS THINKING ABOUT IT. THIS TOWN DESPERATELY NEEDS A REAL BOOK STORE WITH A COFFEE BAR . ID GO .
I MISS THE COFFEEHOUSES ALL OVER SACRAMENTO WHER I LIVED ONCE THEY WERE PLACES OF SOCIALIZING AND HAPPINESS TO ME I MADE SO MANY FRIENDS THERE.
MY FAVORITE PLACES WERE IN OLD BUILDINGS WITH A FEW ARTSY THINGS ON THE WALLS AND FRESH PASTRIES AND LOTSA BOOKS.
MAYBE A FEW SANDWICHES AND SOUP.

ONE COFFEEHOUSE WAS REALLY AN AUTHENTIC ONE REMINDING ME OF THE JACK KEROUAC SORTS AND OLD TIMEY BEATNIKS . THE TABLES AND CHAIRS WERE SO FRAGILE WE HAD TO TAKE REALLY GOOD CARE OF THEM. THE OWNER HAD A BAD TEMPER IF YOU CROSSED HIM AND SOEMTIMES HE WAS LATE OPENING AND WE ALL WAITED PATIENTLY FOR HIS ARRIVAL . SOMETIMES HE LET THE COFFEE GET COLD AND WE ALL WERE AFRAID TO TELL HIM. HE HAD THIS WONDERFUL COFFEE THAT HE GOT FROM SAN FRANCISCO AND HE SOLD LBS OF IT AND TEAS INA SIDE SHOP WHENEVER WE BEGGED FOR IT.
WE HAD HIS WEDDING THERE AND COLUMBUS DAY POTLUCKS WHERE WE ALL BROUGHT FOOD. ALSO CHRISTNAS PARTIEDS WE ALL BROUGHT DECOR FOR THE TREE AND THE SHOP. AND WHEN WE DID ANY ART WORK WE COULD HANG IT ON THE WALLS.
WHAT A PLACE, WHAT A LIFE WE LOVED IT AND EACH OTHER AND COULDNT WAIT TO TALK TO EACH OTHER EVERY DAY.
AHH MY LOST DAYS....
