Yes, I have a number of piles and boxes that need attention, in the living room, the dining room, the bedroom, the basement, trunk of car, back porch. The only rooms that are ok are the bathrooms and the kitchen. Hoping that now that I am not on a regular schedule to work, only on call, that I can start to address the situation. But where to begin, one of life’s little challenges.

We went to dinner at an Italian restaurant… I ordered cannelloni but was served manicotti. Our waitress was an older lady, late 50s/early 60s who felt so badly that I had to tell her about the time I was waitressing during a break from college and accidentally dumped a glass of tomato juice on a young lady wearing a pink chiffon dress. The people were unbelievably nice to me. Our waitress felt much better after hearing about my faux pas.
