Later today I will drop off the key to my office and pick up a nice fat check of the deposit $. I feel lighter than I have in years. I didn't know I was carrying that weight.

Doing anything to celebrate?
No, we went out to eat on Sunday night after I rented a U-Haul van so Mr. K and I could empty out the office. Basically, we were just too tired to fix dinner, so we turned it into a night out.

Did you raise a finger or two?
Lol, what do you mean? A middle finger? Like, "So long suckers!!!!"
I also thought maybe he meant a couple of fingers of whiskey…
I will drink any kind of alcohol. Wherever you travel around Europe they always have their local version of 'firewater'. The one drink I cannot drink is whisky. It always takes me back to an unfortunate night when I was 16 & had an endulgent night on Bells Whisky (cheap & nasty) & Fosters Lager (cheap.,nasty & Australian)
Just before going to bed, Charlie casually says, "I have a letter from my teacher", "Oh ffs" I think, I'm imagining she's gone full Galadriel on someone and stuck pencils in his/her eyes, plucked them out and fed them to the seagulls. But no, Charlie was being praised for her reading and grammar skills, of course I'm taking all the credit! She loves reading and asks questions when she's stuck, I guess having a home full of books and me wandering around randomly quoting Tolkien or lecturing her in Quenya has helped, but it's really all down to Charlie............
AND ME!!

So happy for you! Congrats on making the first step to a new (hopefully lighter) endeavor.

Thanks so much, I really appreciate that!
So far I've enjoyed things like cleaning out the basement, replacing the weather stripping on the front door, and posting random stuff on freecycle in order to avoid dealing with my resume. I may have even moved furniture.

I'm glad to hear she's got no problem standing up for herself. And the fact she's brainy and articulate is no wonder. All due credit...
May you have many more such communications from school. You know, the ones that don't require you to drop everything, come meet the principal and get your kid.

I still think it was one of those letters, but, the teacher looked up and saw Charlie casually sharpening her pencils ......

Anxious. I am not great being around people I don't know and I am going to a party next door tomorrow where there will be a lot of them. Bit scared really.

This is why alcohol exists (jk). I hope you end up having lots of fun. Just imagine people in their underwear or something.
