ON THE BACK BURNER

I have heard of buyers remorse. Sellers remorse. Now I will add volunteers remorse to the mix. In two days ,I will no longer have any volunteer positions . That is scary. What fills that space. I had that thought the other day. I loved the busy-ness of volunteering. What escape will I have. I knew almost everything that was going on around me. Now I will be out of the loop. Out of the mainstream. Oh well. It was my time. I will pass the keys to the store room on to the next volunteer. It was a good run.I loved it and I will learn to fill my days with other interests. I might start by dusting off this big blue cello that is standing in my guest room, and learn how to play it. It has developed a personality and I owe it some attention. Or I can finish a book, cover to cover. I can take tap dancing lessons. I love the sound of tap shoes. That's it. Tap dancing. THat's what I'll do.Tap, tap,taptaptap.tap.

Don't quite know how this got to me but it was on the top line of my computer (not in email) But I really enjoyed it. I truly admire you.
