Dave I’m so happy and proud of you that you have committed to a site that lets us little people have access to your prose. Congratulations on the new job , what subject does the teacher teach or is it elementary (?). Reading Your last three years reflections ,have been so touching, I’m sorry for those guys to lose your loving presence. Love you Dave. Pattie

Pattie ! I just noticed your payment! My god , thank you SO much ! It couldn’t have possibly come at a better time , with the pay reduction at the new gig & the pay delay- it’s freaking me out a bit, but I’m 90% certain that I did the right thing . Anyway, I’m hoping to build up a client-base of other classy folks like yourself 😀and I’ll have material only for you guys. I’m thinking of making a particularly manipulative post encouraging people to join the hip folks who’ve paid for subscriptions…I am , as always, grateful for your presence in my life , & love you to absolute bits…❤️❤️❤️😀

Love you too, Pattie ! - I’ll be taking a lower salary ( initially. I hope. ) and Im on 26 weeks probation, as well, but fingers crossed & best foot forward….Ill try, when I can, to come by and do puzzles and whatnot, but its going to be a big transition…

Well that sucks about a lower salary. Everything is so expensive these days. But I think your day will be less stressful. Hope it all works out ❤️❤️

Beautiful as always. And a wonderful reflection on how to be in the world. Now if we could only get everyone else on board.
