Started this silliness with Joy on FB last night – well, this morning – when neither of us could sleep. Quoting song lyrics about dreaming. “I had a dream, a dream about you, baby!”. Only I had the line wrong and looked up the lyrics to correct it – there it is

Talk about an optimistic, positive message! Mama Rose was the ultimate cheerleader. Joy’s mama, Gloria, was a cheerleader of sorts for me. And her mama’s name – Joy’s grandma – was Rose.

I am so grateful I had Gloria in my life. To quote another song – but I mean it truly – God only knows what I’d be without you.

Thank you, Gloria

My cousin has been looking for a job. She’s had some similar experiences in the past. I, on the other hand, have next to none. She always seems so relaxed about it.

My own employment future is ambiguous at the moment, something that has not EVER happened to me in my entire adult life.

My first reaction to seeing this FB status update was – how can she just go out and play when she doesn’t have a job? Why doesn’t she seem to feel like she has to focus all her attention on employment?

I guess it is not time for me to act yet, although it preys heavily on my mind…
