Not sleeping is bad

Three of the four past nights, I have had trouble falling asleep. Change of the seasons? Not enough on my mind? Who knows...but today I nearly fell asleep in Tax Prep class. Of course, now that I am home and could sleep, not feeling it quite the same. Too bad there wasn't a bed for me to fall into at H&R Block.

This morning, I went to Sandy Creek Nature Center for training as a trail guide volunteer. Ellen W. was there, working, and I remembered how I applied for that job and never heard a word...I am sure I will enjoy taking the kids on nature walks. I felt surprisingly knowledgeable about trees and plants. The other attendees were much younger, one still in college. It is one thing about getting older; I do more than I did, when I can remember it.

I have 8 applications in at UGA, but am not holding my breath. Over the years, I have applied to many positions there. Only one got me an interview, and I realized later they had someone for the job, but had to consider a certain number (3?). I never was a serious candidate. But...it could happen. I would be an outstanding employee...just ask Larry Pomeroy, my boss 25 years ago at UGA's Institute of Ecology.
