The Premise

It's my 42nd year on this planet, roughly the midpoint of my life, and I thought I'd commemorate such a milestone with a year of ongoing chronicles. Your comments and "co-authoring" (adding your shared experience to any group events) are welcome and encouraged!

Is it Really Time Off...

...if nothing happens in between?

I was lucky enough to be extended an invitation to do the rest of Phase III. The deal isn't quite as good (phone and gas are included in the base pay, instead of the way things were done the previous two times, each of the aforementioned being additional to the amount in the past), and it also requires 'clean-up' of Phase II, in which nothing had been done in the intervening 5 weeks since my contract was over, despite having left detailed notes.

So: I am very grateful to have the work (I even postponed my other job to do this), but it's not like the prime deals I enjoyed the first and second times around this particular block. The Big Bonus: working outdoors in a place I have grown to love during the best season of the year in New England!
