You can take this job and shove it.

That sucks. A few years ago I was planning on quitting my job, but when I had my first-and-only panic attack because I had to go into work one monday morning, I decided to expedite the process.

Wow. that’s totally a sign that it’s time to get off that ride like rats off a sinking ship.

In my experience, the time to leave is when you realize that you’re start getting pissed off the night before you’ve got to go to work in the morning, so you go to bed angry.

I’ve started to make a list of things I’ve always wanted to do & day trips I’ve wanted to go on that my wife & kids wouldn’t enjoy. If I can manage my time right, get my job search things done and get the household things done early enough, I go out and experience them.

Just as an update: after posting, I remembered an old cement railway bridge connecting NJ & PA very close to the Delaware Water Gap (spanning the Delaware) that I’d always wanted to hike across. Realizing that I had my chores for the day done, and that there’s no time like the present, I packed a backpack & some hiking boots and drove there. I had to park at a truck stop 1/4 mile away, but darned if I didn’t hike up to the old tressel & scoot on across! I saw a few people tubing below as I walked to PA and back.

And now I can check that off my list.

Have you considered needlepoint? My mother loves it, and when I tried it, I didn’t mind it too much. (My mother just found my old needlepoint project, which is about 90% done, and has started pushing me to get it finished. Maybe I can send it to you, and you can finish it for me? :wink: )

I’ve got a knitting for dummies guide and will give it a try. Also, I have a small collection of scrapbooking supplies. After our wedding and trip to London and Scotland, I wanted to organize the pictures and momentos. I don’t have an artistic bone in my body, so this has been put off for awhile now.

However, I spent today downloading pictures from our trips and will order some prints. (Mouse_Spouse is an amateur photographer, so we have a lot of pictures.)

Yeah Mouse_Maven! Bobo told me you were finally getting away from that hell hole. Good on you! Loved the pics btw! Take time and pamper yourself and mousling!

Blessed Be!
