I don't usually post stuff like this. But honestly, I was halfway through a post full of pitiful whinging about how I work so damn hard at all of these events and how this year the whining was really getting me down. Don't get me wrong, I feel wonderfully appreciated by lots of people! And I'm really grateful that so many people care and take the time to give me that positive feedback. But still, there just also seemed to be a rise in the amount of "unappreciative" this year. And the overscheduled. Leading me to question why I do what I do.
Especially next weekend, when I'm taking 2 of the whopping 4 days of PTO I have for the rest of the year to travel down to do the Carolina show. I don't go because of the Pyrates...I do sort of go to see friends I haven't been able to see the rest of the year. But mostly I go to work with the Hounds group down there. Even though I don't have a greyhound right now, I feel the need to throw my weight behind what they do, help them out and maintain ties. But really, wouldn't I feel better if I just took those two days off and stayed at home?
And then there's this: http://www.panhandleparade.com/index.php/mbb/article/more_dead_dogs_found_in_walton_county/mbb7726494/
And I remember why I do it. |
