Staying On

I called my boss yesterday-

"Katheryn, I know I am due back tomorrow-but there's too much work to do here--I have work covered.. can I stay longer?"

"I can't pay you."

Me: "No worries, I just need you to not fire me."

"I would never fire you."

So I am staying a little longer... Yesterday was a great day--I delivered ice-which made me feel like a rock star. I rode around with the biggest hearted kid ever, Dane, who has befriended this amazing woman Ella. Ella owns her own lawnmowing business. She's 51, Catholic, never married, AMAZINGLY beautiful woman. We chatted with her for a bit then pitched in to help her gut her house. I can't tell you how great it felt to swing a sledgehammer into rotting drywall. The mold that had already begun to grow was scary. I have to go--but here's the thing: ella needs a lawnmower--she can go back to work if she gets onw-- do any of you know any way to help me help ella? I have her address if you are interested...

	rosiewolf: 09/13/2005 9:00 AM You rock, Wendy. I'm so glad your boss is letting you stay.
	Dennis: 09/14/2005 7:00 AM Wendy, it was great getting to work with you in Biloxi. I look forward to seeing the pics you took. I am glad you are able to stay. You are making a difference one life at a time. I am safely in San Antonio again and am feeling guilty about my nice surroundings. Take care.
