It really does pay to be an activist.....I got a call last night from a company that handles several different progressive groups...they do membership drives, etc.....(League of Conservation Voters,
 Nature Conservancy, DNC, etc.etc.) and they offered me a job!!!! My name had come up several times, as a very progressive activist, and the offer is open-ended  ....a position will be there for me whenever I can get there.....the pay is good and I will get an increase in 3 months..plus there are bonus perks.......I'M SO EXCITED!!!P

Pat! That is just bloody fantastic. I''m so excited for you. This sounds like something that is totally right up your alley, something that your passionate about, active about and you can get PAID for it. It doesn't get any better than that. It's these unexpected surprises of life that I love the most on this journey each of us is on, called our lives. Really Pat, I'm so very happy for you. TgrsPurr. xo

Hi Pat -- So nice to hear of good news coming out of the blue.
Austin is a great town. I keep my eye on job ops there myself. I know a few people there. So -- when are you going? And how does this impact the plans for nursing school?

hi, guys.......wow...i'm still giggling....if i should go ahead and go down there now, i have to take biology and pharmacology before nursing school in Texas.......i could work there, and go to school at night...one semester.....or stay here and do it in 12 months....i'll have to sleep on it several times.....talk to my sister...and see if we ever close the sale on the house in NM........i'm really flattered that they want me there and i know i would love the work.....and you get to go to work in "nice" tee shirts and jeans and hiking boots, if you desire....it's in an area of Austin that i dearly love. lots of cool little shops and antique stores...just utterly cool.....i love Austin so much and would love to be down there with Shar and Willie and Guy and all those undiscovered songwriters and singers.....AND Central Market!!
Thank you all so much for your good wishes. it means alot fo have the support and love of the Groholer Gang!! |
