If it ain't broke, I fixed it

Lately I think "if it ain't broke, I fixed it"*.

I have hired someone to take care of some things but I have also done some fixing myself!

my humble abode

Sometimes as I am doing these things, I think "well, this isn't working out to be perfect", but what is?  Even Mark had a learning curve.  I can imagine him fixing something for the first time, doing his best and knowing that a done something was better than a perfect nothing. I also imagine him cheering me on, urging me not to give up.  I'm learning a lot about things I never thought I would need to.  And I am proud of me.

*Grayson's version is "if it ain't broke, don't break it"

Happy things for July 2023

 I am settling in to my new shift, though for the last couple of weeks I have been working extra hours and taking a tad bit extra call.  There will always be happy things:

my desk at work

*Highlands sold in a week, and for what I expected to get, without me even getting someone to mow it.  The new owner even wants the canoe and the trailer.

*My boss fixed my pay - I wasn't receiving the full weekend differential.  So not only are my paychecks bigger than what they were when I was working 40 hours M-F, I got back pay for that missing differential.

*My nails are still growing and look great.

*My cholesterol is down.

*My mother did well in her surgery and is at home, resting and recovering.

*I am moving forward with big projects at home.
