People actually died to create and protect unions, to create workplace safety standards, to obtain a minimum wage. Think about that the next time you bash all organized labor.

With that out of the way, the past nearly three weeks is catching up with me. I’m impatient, I’m stressed, and I want things to improve.

We all want things.

It’s sunny out today, I think, a lovely day, but I’ll see very little of it. That happens when you’re in one of life’s twists, looking for a turn.

And that’s it for me today, I hope, if you get the day off, you have a great time and if you don’t, it’s still a fabulous Monday. And tomorrow I’ll be doing another update on my mom, if you’re interested, it’s becoming a Tuesday ritual.

Part One is here. Part Two is here.
