I seem to have to make the choice between the three elements necessary
for all human life: Time, Money (life), or Love (human relationships).
Obviously,
I can't live without some income. I guess that is the choice I have to
make now. At my age, I will not be making enough money again in my lifetime to choose to
take my chances on the money part.
This month, I've taken a second
part-time job. The new gig is freelance, so there is no payroll
accounting for taxes and I'm sure I'll pay dearly for that. However, it
does pay a whopping two dollars more an hour than what I'm currently
making at the dress shop and I'm getting a lot more hours from them with
the possibility of being brought on full-time in the future. The future
might take place as soon as August... We'll see how it shakes out. Meanwhile, all of my
week days are completely clogged with graphics when I'm not working
retail and all of my weekends are full of retail. Trying to hold onto
both branches until I see which one will not snap.
This also means I
can't even travel overnight until my schedule becomes predictable and
safe to ask for days off work. I want to go down to Georgia to visit old
friends. I'd like to take a week or long weekend to got to Florida to
further acquaint myself with others but I can't for now.
Meanwhile,
the potentially full-time job has requested that I pull back and stay
off social media as long as I'm associated with them. This means no
input to Google maps, Facebook, Twitter, etc. although I continue to
follow my friends and family feed on all channels. This makes me more of
a ghost than I already am. I am hoping that I can still get away with
blogging, which can be a bit more esoteric these days, so I am sharing
this with you, dear friends. You can still find me here on in Mail and
Text for now. My phone is still not functioning for sound unless I'm
using a Bluetooth device. Please feel free to call me - I promise I will
call you back as soon as I grab the Bluetooth device.
Meanwhile, stay tuned...
