I think we would all be better off if we focused on what your excerpt says, "work at things we are more inspired by (gardening, songcrafting)" etc. Gardening is my favorite thing to do when I have had enough from work. Just a thought. I agree, sounds like your boss just didn’t want to face you.

He is notorious for being suspicious of his employees. He'd start conversations with me about a worker cheating him on hours or slacking off, trying to sound friendly and get dirt on my supervisor for example. it was really lame. i finally felt forced to say "Chris, i'm not a rat." and to answer your hope: yes, i'm working as much as i want these days, and for myself. quitting that job or whatever was the first step in a process that ended in me starting my own business. and i don't need to screw other people over to make a living! hey Ray,

I really think he was afraid to face you, because he knew that he was ripping you off. It may not seem like that much money, but you had already done the work and the price change came on the last day you had already worked, which I think he did you wrong. Maybe on day he gets his. Hopefully your work stay steady and for the amount you want. Good luck... http://www.gpseyes4u.com : GPS Advanced Vehicle Tracking WOW!

Whatever that may be. It's very subjective. Tradition is really kind of an arrogrant word -- for surely, my tradition is not your's. My traditions are all shite. You know? It's nice to know you are still out there. Does that make you a tradition or simply a fond memory of a time gone by? “”Tradition’” is simply a word we apply to the ritual of our daily lives –being it singing a song to our children or remembering a habit our parents — we give tradition meaning by weighting it in our own memory; giving it our own meaning.

I lie in bed with my laptop which is the hight of decadence. The cat is curled up, not on the bed, but nearby on a wool blanket and Daddy is outside with his doggies- three now with the puppy we rescue a month back- Sweetpea is her name. I write a ramble to get at the tangle that's got many of us wrapped in ambivalent woods. Like a Xmas present, but the bows aren't as pretty. I don't know that ambivalence is all bad. But then I'm a fence sitter. An atheist/mystic, an extroverted introvert. Sometimes, especially at this time of year, I think we are called on to sit with the uncertainity. Funny enough, it is a necessary part of group decision making, the muddle, the mess, the no clear sign of which way to go or why or how. Oh, but it don't make it easy and at this time of year, I wish I could hibernate. Dream away the muddle and the mess and the anxieties. I stopped typing for a moment as I imagined a needle threaded with fear piercing my flesh and sewing the muscles and fat together- tightening. My life is good, very good, in most respects, but there are patterns sown in my flesh. Sown by my flesh. You are subjected to this because well that the way of a Sunday morning now and again. I hope the show at the A Farm went well, and I hope that your birthday brings you much joy. May all sorts of blessings be yours in the coming year.
