The Unemployed---ME!

So, here I am again.  Typing away knowing that nobody's listening, but...after reading some of my posts from 2008 I think that this is all good and humbling.
It all started on July 12, 2013...NOT!  It all started when I was getting myself so wrapped into work that I forgot the importance of what's important.  AS A RESULT...my self inflected work load drove me closer and closer into the ground, and wanting to do things that I wouldn't have done in 2008.  AND, my work performance decreased as a result ending in a leave of absence (sabbatical) for 6 weeks starting on July 12th.

So, here I am again.  But for a different reason this time.  Through out the past couple of weeks, I have learned a lot about being unemployed with a female working spouse.

Please note I am over 60 and ready for retirement, but none of us want to be told that is the case.

Sorting Laundry--
There are three categories; white, colored, and dark.  After much coaching I came to the realization that "all things are colored, some are less colored" and the less colored items are really the "colored" items while the darker colored items are considered dark.  As an example, a red shirt is dark, not colored.

Although I have learned more important items such as navigating the social service offices, applying on line I think the home survival skills are what are most important.
