the situation at work is dragging me down. management is sociopathic. Many co-workers are deliberately or inadvertently abusive. And I am increasingly withdrawing as a result. And now teaparty Gov. 38% plans to drop 65,000 people from medicaid, which will cost the state 4,000 jobs.

I am trying to find a supplemental income through helping my neighbors. I am learning to build "interior storm windows" and after I finish my house, will advertise for those here in the far north who lack and can't afford the regular kind. Saves energy and saves them considerable $$. Also hope to demo and sell solar cookers for the same reason.

But I feel physically like I'm trudging frozen through 4' of snow...
