I stuffed envelopes for eight hours today.
I went to university, why?

"He gave me no assurance. No fixed land. Always one must throw oneself into the wave."
"Who am I? This or the other? Am I one person today, and tomorrow another? Am I both at once? ... Whoever I am, Thou knowest, O God, I am thine." (Dietrich Bonhoeffer, "Prison Poems")

This week I give God a cheer for:
parchment paper, chalkboard paint, free museum weekends, public transportation, online cultural resources, free apps to help you learn non-roman scripts, science experiments, cast iron dutch ovens, cast iron dutch oven lids which double as a skillets, power drills, gallery walls, taco nights with friends, vegetarian cookbooks, apples on sale, the way flowers brighten a room, new curtains, globes, Friday night outings, engineering paper, movie-makers not destroying my favorite book, movie-makers creating something beautiful based on my favorite book, theater pubs, Gutenberg, sunny-yet-freezing weather, new dishtowels, hand-thrown pottery, the golden ratio, secondhand stores, stained glass, and the word "kerfuffle," among other things.

Of course, this was "thinking persons' envelope stuffing," requiring matching custom-printed letters with the right envelope content and label, etc. It's a good thing you got all those A+ grades at the university, eh?
Tomorrow I have to be at work at 7:00 a.m. so I can stuff packets for a class. And I have a master's degree. Our boss uses our 2 admin asst to do her work, and we educators each have to do our own. Oh well, the pay isn't bad, so I can't complain!
Love, Aunt Linda
