Meeting

I met with the one of the nicest, kindest people yesterday. Sitting in a McDonald's, our agreed upon meeting place, as Molly was accompanying me, I sat, and talked, and listened to an amazing, smart man. He offered me a job. One that I can do, right here, in my home. The work is in the field of alternative fuel. He runs a symposium for the whole Northeast of the country, annually, dealing in solar, and wind, and electric alternatives as fuel. I am beyond excited, and have so much research to do. Did I mention, beyond excited!

Listening to NPR yesterday report on all of the problems in Libya, and gas prices by the barrel skyrocketing, and our pump prices increasing by the day, was nerve wracking. Everything else will follow accordingly now. Food prices will rise. Everything getting that much more expensive. Makes me want to lump my errands into one day, and leave the car parked and not moving, for the week.

As quickly as the snow fell, it melted away. My forsythia bushes are looking like they are about to explode. I think I will cut a few this morning, and force them inside. Spring is so welcome this year.
