Musings from Left Field

I am not feel­ing too well tonight, but NaBloPoMo must go on. I’ll keep it short though.

I sched­uled 3 esti­mates for paint­ing the room today. Two of them did not show up on time. One never showed. In the mid­dle of it all my neigh­bors son revealed a des­per­ate need to work. He, like many peo­ple out there, is strug­gling and work­ing through it by throw­ing lawn equip­ment into the back of his Dodge Neon and ask­ing to mow lawns to break even. Lucky me, he’s been laid off from con­struc­tion. SERENDIPITY in Action!

Prim­ing starts tomor­row and he’s tak­ing on the project. the pros who didn’t have the finesse to show up to a sched­uled appoint­ment to get busi­ness need not apply. When you’re hun­gry you don’t take any­thing for granted. The hunger for work is a rare but good ethic to carry into any sit­u­a­tion. Stay hun­gry my friends.
