Retirement was such a wise decision.

Back at my old job today and everyone was so nice, excited to see me back. And it was fun, in a way, and yes, after a little while, I remembered how to use the systems. Turns out that what they really need my help with is the up coming news letter. I can do this. Assembling one more newsletter is possible. But, as I kept stressing to everyone today, this is only very short term. The only thing I was faced with this morning that I knew I couldn't deal with was the chair the new communication editor uses. I've never seen anything quite like it.  It looked like a giant ball on wheels with a tiny little back piece. Probably wonderful for your posture or something but I could only imagine myself rolling right off onto the floor. Happily our head maintenance man, who let me into the office, took one look at the chair, said "You can't sit on that." and immediately replaced it with a more traditional office chair, which looks suspiciously like the one I used to use. Welcome home indeed.
