Ultimate Squeegee Project, Day 2

 

1. I might have my hubby read your story - sometimes (although my hubby is better than most) people don’t get that I don’t sit around here all day playing cards. I do, however, pace myself a damn site more than I used to and combine that with decades (33 years) of practice - I tend to have things down to a real workable system. But doing the work and doing it well, takes time. As a semi-(ok lazy) perfectionist - I still see sooooo many things I need to get to. It seems like as soon as I start prioritizing - all heck breaks loose here.

   Be careful on the dementia diagnosis - My mother told me over and over (and most of the family snickered about it) that her mil (the only grandparent I ever really knew) was senile. Yepper, so senile that she knew the day nurse left at 3PM and that the UPS guy delivered at 3:30pm - so she called an upscale food place to deliver ice cream (a no no for a diabetic) a number of times a week - paid COD (no wonder that little gem was done a away with). No one was the wiser until she did not hear someone coming to visit, ditched the carton in the nearby trash and forgot about it - nice little stream of vanilla ice cream across the floor. Senile my a**. It was however, quite interesting to go through her place after she died - she stuffed money (now everyone knew how she paid for it) into almost all of her books and even sewed some into the curtains.

   I can’t wait to go through my mom’s stuff - now there won’t be anyone badgering me to toss it and rush me through. Sorry too pragmatic on the death thing, no one gets out alive - and it is the one thing (early death) that I can be thankful for that I have no genetic relationship with the family I grew up in (Ok, the alcoholism on the other side too). 

   Oh well, good luck on the job -

   And I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks that Biden oozes slime and is hard to listen to.

2. It’s people like your client that keep the rest of us working and in business. I never begrudge the wealthy.
