I know a lot of younger people play games on their smart phones, but yet another casualty of shifting technology has been the middle-aged ‘FreeCell’ addict, usually female, who would sit for hours playing FreeCell and other versions of solitaire. ‘Spider Solitaire’ comes to mind. There were a lot of FreeCell widowers back in the day. Now, games, shopping and any number of computer tasks can be performed while sitting on the sofa beside one’s mate. Progress marches on.

I am fine, Llee. Thanks for asking. Just don’t have as much time anymore – or rather, energy! We all have the same amount of time…
Have been working a lot in the past few months investigating, and now preparing, for a merger of our mental health agency with a much larger medical & mental health provider. The merger will happen on Jan. 1, and there is so much to do. In addition to trying to get a handle on our roles in the new entity, there is just so much of the mundane, but time consuming, items. We have notified all our business partners, a public announcement has been made, and now we must have current contracts changed. It is not simple!
But we will have so many more resources available to do the services we want, and need, to do. Our little tri-county agency, with 100 employees, will become a part of an organization that will cover the entire southeastern part of Ohio. From Chillicothe, east to Marietta, south to the river… AND the organization, with our entry, will have 700 employees.
As you can tell, I am excited, but it is a lot of work – and it will take some time to work out the kinks. And… I am looking forward to having the time available to actually take more than one week of the three weeks of vacation I am due annually!
Like Symply… I am lurking… Keep up the good work, Village!
