Buning the Candle at Both Ends

I am now working two jobs and taking classes towards my MS degree; and I have decided that something has to give. That something is the part time gig selling beer and porn. I have decided to work there until May and then give it up. It has been a huge blessing financially, but socially, and time-wise it has been a burden. I would leave earlier, but Charlie (storeowner) is shorthanded now and I would hate to worsen the situation. This actually has been a difficult decision to make as I am desparately trying to dig myself out of the financial hole that the divorce from the whore has left me in; the part time job was helping tremendously with that. But, my Extension career is more important and finishing my master's is more important so the debt will get paid off at a slower pace now, but it is still manageable.

This past weekend we had a progressive dinner with the church. For anyone who hasn't tried this; it is where you go to a different person's home for each course of the meal. It is a blast! I signed up to do the salad course, but when I saw how many people were signed up to attend, I had the salad at the church instead of at my house. The main course was also at the church as the hosts for that course live out of town somewhat. So we only got to go to two different houses, but it was still fun! There is also talk of a guy's hunting/camping retreat this fall with the church guys...I'm in for that!
