I cannot imagine why you would have to relate the work history of your family (!) and I can't imagine why this would take nearly five hours.

When this pandemic thing is all over, why don't you come to my house to interview me? Perhaps you could help me feed and take care of my adult daughter's personal needs as we chat?"Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-39529211002377354952020-04-07T06:18:06.209-07:002020-04-07T06:18:06.209-07:00You roused vivid memories of the years of 24/7 car...You roused vivid memories of the years of 24/7 caregiving I did for a totally disabled husband who could not be left even for a few minutes. Friends would say, yes, I know it's 24/7, but this event is on a Saturday! Surely you could come? Evidently not understanding what the 7 meant.<br /><br />People who haven't been there are rarely able to grasp the reality.

Surely ...I spit on your ex-husband's shadow. <br /><br />Surely there are more hours in the day Elizabeth that you could be working. Say from midnight to four am, a short nap and then after caring for Sophie, off to work. Of course you would have more time to work if you didn't have a four and a half hour interview, skipping that would have freed up more time. Have you tried vitamins? Prayer? The blood of Jesus? I'm sure if we all put our tiny minds together we could come up with new and inventive ways for you to work more than twenty-fours in a day.
