This is the best time of year in Bisbee... it is stunning! Great weather, the light is lovely, and the town is repopulating after the usual summer exodus.
I have some some hours at the co-op and am grateful for that. My pal Gretchen is currently hating the word grateful. Sadly, nothing in the thesaurus really matches the word where I need it so it stays.
Changing up some plans, slowing down to conserve resources, and looking to this day for some hours at the wee co-op, including working the truck (physical activity!) and getting to do tasks I like. Strangely, I am working Sunday which will be an extreme changeup as I will be up front for 9 hours. I fully expect to be brain dead within 2 hours, but yet I am still grateful for the hours. Maybe they are seeing if I am trainable to that position? I feel pretty 'meh' about working up in the front.. but keeping my head above water is a good thing. So I will STFU and conjure all the goodness I can muster! I do like the majority of customers we have.. so that's a plus!
And I voted.
Civic duty handled. Early voting rocks. I dunno why everyone doesn't do it. I can see were the Bisbee Post Office may lack some customer service (including losing all of the mail that I should have gotten while I put my mail on hold over the summer) but they get the ballots to you. Small town living does bring the post office and the library to a more prominent place in daily life. But that slowing down is also one of the things that makes life here so sweet.
Yup... I got gratitude.
(sorry GB)
