Going Bonkers
« on: May 23, 2012, 09:57:24 AM »
Yesterday my dog got put to rest. She was really my neighbour's dog but we had a special bond shared between a dog and her human. Here I am sitting here filling in time until her 10:15 walk forgetting there won't be a 10:15 nor a 3:15 walk. I suddenly have all lots of empty time slots. I have to find something to do. I can't work due to health issues. I like to do volunteer work but, whether curse or carma, every time I commit myself to it I always end up in the hospital. I'm tempted to fall off the wagon and go on a massive bender but that is out of the question as life is already too short. Why make it shorter? I'm still going over to visit my neighbours anyway to see how they are doing. Does anybody have any good suggestions?
 If you cut a board three times and it's still too short, maybe you shouldn't be a carpenter.

Just off the top of my head..

Have you thought of volunteering at the animal shelter ?

Actually I did but it's way out in the sticks with only a couple of busses a day that don't even come close to it. But like I say everytime I try to do any kind of volunteer work I seem to end up in the hospital. Maybe I should do volunteer work at the hospital. At least that might make people want to leave and recover faster.

Have you considered being a " sitter" at the hospital ?

I never heard of such a thing until a couple of month ago. As they get paid it's probably tougher than applying for a regular job.  But thanks, I'll definately check into it.
