One of my [almost former] coworkers has said she wants my hours in Activities, so I don't have to go in next week.
In other words, I AM DONE with that job.
I'm hugely relieved, but I also feel knocked off my feet.
For 6 months I've been working face-to-face with people and thinking all the time about how to engage them, since their brains couldn't flip the "on" switch themselves anymore.
What now?
Well, I've got the book––good, meaningful, interesting work;
bink, Marz, Laura and other friends; blogging; sewing notions; the Thrift Store; looking into volunteering at the nonprofit senior center... Also, rewatching Star Trek again!
I know I'll be fine, but I can tell I'm off balance because I spent all of this Saturday morning futzing, culling and condensing this blog's index.
Probably pointless, but it gives me a sense of emotional security.
I never completed the blog-move to WordPress once Google said they wouldn't, after all, censor naughty blogs.
It was going to be a lot of work to move, but also, clicking on various index entries, I'm reminded of how deeply and broadly I am rooted here.
(Like, remember Aretha's hat?

I'd move if I have to, but I love being here on my home ground.
