God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen.
--Reinhold Niebuhr
"Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But, if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything."

Is spring ever going to spring? It’s only 28 this morning and we have a big high pressure front moving in so it goes without saying I got very little sleep last night and I’m dealing with a ton of pain today. I had such high hopes of getting a ton of stuff done today but it doesn’t look promising.

I’ll try to finish up my report on Pell and clean up my desk a little bit and that’s it! I refuse to do much more. I may even go home early if I get all of that done.

I also had plans to work on a paper bag album and get some stuff up on ebay today! That sure doesn’t look like it will happen. And today is 10 cent day so I could post a bunch really cheap.

I really need to do a check of all the publishing calls and all of the DT calls. I would love to get something either in print or be able to work on a DT. Well the ideal situation would be both but I’m not asking for a miracle!

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could work 2 days a week and have 5 days a week off. Of course I want paid for working 5 days. LOL! I have this wonderful dream of some time in this life of retiring and then finding a dream job that I work one or two days a week just for the fun of it.
