-=> Quoting Ruth Haffly to Nancy Backus on 08-04-16  15:29 <=-

 RH>> Quite so, and will be even more so on the next trip. The place
 RH>> where the team stays only has a dorm size fridge (a full size
 RH>> one is available where we do the cooking) so last year our cooler
 RH>> supplimented the small fridge. Planning on doing likewise this
 RH>> year, plus Steve and I will have the camper fridge for our stuff.
 NB>> Gives you plenty of flexibility...  :)

 RH> Much more so than the team has had in previous years.

Making you guys a helpful adjunct to the team in more ways than just the
cooking and planning... ;) 
 
 RH>> Seems that's how things work out for most people--you find a niche
 RH>> that you enjoy and earn either a living or pocket money in that realm.
 NB>> Health care has never been even pocket money for me... only volunteer,
 NB>> and rarely even recognition... which is ok.. :)  I did end up earning
 NB>> pocket money when I was teaching piano... never made a living at it,
 NB>> never had a lot of pupils at the same time, but did find some
 NB>> enjoyment and did it for quite a while until my last pupil couldn't do
 NB>> it anymore... never did much actively looking for pupils, just happened
 NB>> that way...  :)

 RH> Most of my sewing business has been word of mouth. The cards are
 RH> useful for other times I need to give out information, as well as a
 RH> reminder with people that have mentioned wanting sewing done. A "who
 RH> was that person I was talking with?" kind of thing.

When my son was in high school, one shop class project was printing
business cards, so he printed up some rudimentary ones for me... I think
I used them mostly to verify that I was a piano teacher and therefore
entitled to a discount on music at the music store...  ;)

 RH>> I wouldn't want to be a professional cook/chef, even tho cooking
 RH>> can be fun. There are enough other issues involved with doing it
 RH>> professionally that I wouldn't want to deal with.
 NB>> Sometimes it just isn't feasible...  :)

 RH> No, I'd need help lifting heavy pots, couldn't do all the cutting
 RH> up or other heavy lifting, etc so good thing I didn't make it a
 RH> career choice. 

Like me and nursing...  ;)


... I'm of the faction that believes mushroom sandwiches are not burgers
