Scary thought..

My line manager wishes to clone me!! Several times!! Eeek! Personally, I think one of me is quite enough for this world to be coping with, however, on the grounds this was spoken during my annual appraisal, I guess I can take it as a compliment.

Mind you, I got to thinking this morning, as I was moving furniture, and pondering the arrangements of my upstairs rooms yet again...(just where does my prayer corner work best, and can I have my keyboard and hymn books adjacent to it without it feeling like a work space...) several of me could be quite useful.

I could send  one of me off to church to be the social, cheery person that appears to be the only acceptable kind of person at this church. I'm keeping going, because I quite enjoy being the Awkward So and So who does not fit in...

I could leave a Domestic Version at home, doing the housework, cooking, gardening, and even getting on with doing some painting, decorating,and general de-scruffyfying of the whole place. I'm slowly making up for the neglect of years, but it's a slow process.

I could send one of me off visiting all "friends" who are whinging they never see me any more, (but who never actually make any attempt to visit me).

I could send one of me off to do all the academic courses people are trying to talk me into, and for which I have no inclination.

And, the several of me apparently needed at work.

Leaving Me to enjoy me and my life as I'm meant to!!
