How Are You?
I wrote the other day about how I came across this "Check on your friends" message on a telephone pole. It prompted me to check in with a couple friends, which turned out to be an enjoyable addition to my day.
Of course, my social circle also includes you, my readers. So many of you have been reading the blog for years and regularly share your life celebrations and troubles, even when they're unrelated to nonconsumerism. So I ask:
How are you these days?
What are you doing to stay afloat during these trying times? I'd love to read what's going on in your lives -- whether it's good or bad. Let's take a moment to come together to support and lift each other up!
Well, you asked… lol. Life kinda sucks for a variety of reasons of reasons. A crushing workload at work, not being paid enough for the crushing workload, a new, inexperienced (and doesn’t care, to be real) demanding and somewhat arrogant and clueless boss, significant grown kid problems, and not enough $$$$$ to deal with all the above… lol. Still, I am alive, have running water and electric, roof over my head, and a way to make a living. So I consider my problems to be minor compared to what folks are suffering around the globe. At 66, I would like to retire but it is not in the cards at the moment!!! It is what it is!! Not complaining, just being real. Are you sorry you asked…. lol.
I am keeping my head up. Staying positive. Only catching news headlines to keep updated (and then staying away from news except for recent Artemis crew stories and splashdown!
Love them!) Enjoying my recent retirement, my rescue dog I adopted last summer, reading, bargain shopping. I enjoy your posts,
Katy. We are of like frugal minds.
