Yesterday plus

I couldn't post yesterday because blogger was down every time I came in. Yesterday was just another day like usual. I am blessed. I truely am. My life is so very good inspite of the crap that I lived through and the negativity that tries to creep in. As long as I keep counting my blessings and refusing the negativity, the joy is always here. :)


Now -- today is interesting. The bastard governor is trying to kill the state and doing a damn good job of it. The latest is that he won't lay off state workers for four years if we agree to his concessions. No raises. No longevity pay (that's a whole $75 for me so I don't care), no lump sum (I'm supposed to get $750 in April) death to retirement. The kids want me to take early retirement and stay home with the Pumpkin while they both work. I won't get much -- don't even know if I'd get enough to pay my own bills so I have to check into it. I'll have to talk to HR or someone to see how it works and what my income would be.
