I was struck a little earlier by some really unpleasant feelings. Not horrific, but...just for a brief time, I was feeling wrung out. So many friends are either in the hospital or in divorce proceedings or in simple dire straits that I just feel useless. There's so little I can give. So little I can do. And worse, all I can think is, "There's no one there to worry for me."
It was a very cold, very selfish, very self-pitying feeling. And it'll only get worse the closer I get to Christmas.
Ho ho ho.
Started back at the store today. That place I swore I'd never set foot in again. If only I didn't enjoy the work so. I sold $2,300 and change, which was a little over 10% of the store total for the day. We had about 7 people on the floor today, I believe. One of them was, for a few hours, my sister. Her selling style is much like mine, and she's very good. Mom taught us well.
