That&#8217;s where Robin and Kirsten went to elementary school in the 90&#8217;s.  The lady asked if I was still interested in a job with food service.  I said I was, and we agreed to meet tomorrow (now today) at 3:00 pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetsusan.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/limestone-creek-school.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" src=\"https:\/\/www.planetsusan.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/limestone-creek-school.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8414\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>So now I&#8217;m one step closer to becoming a lunch lady.  It&#8217;s three in the morning, and I&#8217;m tapping away on this computer, after waking up at 1:51.  It occurred to me that my greatest fear is not being physically fit enough for the job.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I haven&#8217;t been to the gym but once since Covid took over our lives.  After I went that one time to the Silver Sneakers class, the Delta variant started making the news, and I backed off.  Now I&#8217;m preparing to jump into work that requires physical labor, at this point of unknown quantity and duration.  Will I be able to handle it?  That is the question.  We&#8217;ll see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetsusan.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/1918-pandemic-dvd.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/www.planetsusan.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/1918-pandemic-dvd.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8415\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, after I finish this post, I&#8217;m going to watch the DVD I bought from Amazon (of course) about the pandemic of 1918.  I still have it in my mind to write a satirical piece about Covid terrorism &#8211; on both sides of the argument.  I want to get it done before my anger and frustration with the vaxxer vs anti-vaxxer nonsense subsides.  Gotta finish that outline this week &#8211; in between interviews to be Granny O, lunch lady.  Wish me luck today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I got a call yesterday mid-afternoon from a nice-sounding woman who said she was the food service manager at Limestone Creek Elementary School.
