Okay....As Desiderata says, the world is unfolding as it should.

Got an email today that a person for whom I've done quite a lot of volunteering is leaving his job. Called his boss and said, "So - is the position filled?"

It's not.

Might be an interesting opportunity for me, and I was encouraged to apply! I wonder if I can balance it with my consulting business.

H is back and monstering a bit. I was a little late getting to the airport and he was totally grumpy about it. (On the plus side, I put on a cute outfit, and a little lipstick and eyeliner...And frankly folks, I look pretty good.) Seriously - I don't EVER remember him being so grumpy. Even D said, "Hey - we've been together for 5 minutes. Let's not fight!" It's weird, but I'm not letting it bother me. I just went and did ironing and my own thing. He finally asked if I would come and look at some of his photos from his trip with D. Sure!

Now he's watching soccer (and asked if I would come watch with him). I told him I'd watch some of the game, but I had some other things to do first.

Like.....work on my resume (which I didn't say, but I have to do!).

I do want to watch the game, and I'm happy to spend time with him, but I need to pace myself!

Boy, though...as he was railing about this that and the other, I had to take a very deep breath and NOT blow up at him!
