Went to the Philly Boat Show this weekend. Saw boats that cost more than my house. The prices struck me as overly high but then I realized $250,000.00 isn’t that much money anymore, especially when the government is just giving away trillions of dollars. On a different note, I saw Twiggy, the water skiing squirrel!
I got a week left of no work, no stress, and I plan on making the most of it. I must admit that deep down I am a little scared. But I also feel very very lucky. As soon as I start working again it’s going to feel like I never stopped working. The 3 months of unemployment will seem like a long weekend. And of course the unknown is scary but I’ve experienced this type of thing before…so is it really unknown? Gosh, I remember 3 years ago walking into the HQs of my last place of employment… Oh my gosh that was frightening! It was a rat’s nest! I honestly considered running out! Yet it turned out to be perfectly fine. Heck, better than just fine, it worked out really well for me. And I am sure this new place will be the same.

I’ve also seen Twiggy a couple of times at Mayfest in
Fort Worth, Texas.
Mild trepidation is normal when entering a new environment. No fear. You’ve done it before. You’ve succeeded. You will succeed again.
