    It takes courage to move on from something that has become the norm. Although I left my job in Washington for personal reasons, for awhile I questioned that decision. It wasn't because I felt I couldn't find something else, it was because it was a way of life for so long. Eventually it led to my dream job, meaning I had a desire to do, but felt it a fantasy I couldn't achieve. I hope you find the job of your dreams as well.

    Nicely put

    One of the lucky ones who decided dream jobs, practiced at the same time, was preferable to a dream job, and was able to make it work.

    When a youngster, an old Italian neighbor, a retired fruit stand owner, told me two things that stuck, when looking back on 43 years of Schedule C's:

    "There's riches in niches".
    "What you lose on the grapes, you can make on the bananas".

    Lotsa thunder and a bit of drizzle here but the power is holding. 30 years ago my neighborhood lost power even more than yours did. I guess there's at least a little upside to all the development that's happened around here.

    Microwave refuses to start if a time is not set.
    That, the stove and bedside clock are at Entergy's mercy.
    It is a fishing camp, after all.
    Got to where I wait for an hour or so after the power goes back on.
    Entergy is famous for fooling with you ...

    Took Skittles to the vet today. The news is pretty concerning. My sister didn't give him what he needed and he is lacking in vitamins and possibly has bird and beak disease. My vet is very thorough. What I thought was a molt, turned out to be either the disease or from depression and boredom. I have sent my sister videos and she tells me she has never seen him act so happy. I have to do a DNA extraction before I know for sure, but I am crossing my fingers and praying it is not the disease. There is no cure for it and young birds typically die from it after awhile. I'm hoping it's just the remnants of a bad previous diet and depression.
    I spent a lot of time today buying fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts, and a special bird food to try and get him healthier. Today he chatted up a storm, danced a lot, and even kissed me. I want to make sure he forgets his past and can move forward in a long and happy life.

    Glad you're taking care of your animals, birds, etc. Critters are a great deal better than humans regarding relationships!
    The love they give is pure love!
    I agree 100%. I have built my own family on them entirely. They are the most loyal and have the neatest personalities
