Change Is Hard

…but change is certain.

Katie wanted to vote…but she's not registered.

After my library interview this afternoon Katie and I went to the park to work on her homework. As it happens the park is right next door to my local library which is housed in our township government building. This is where I voted earlier today. I figured I’d take Katie down to the library and try to teach her not to lunge and bark at moving cars. There were a LOT of moving cars. Katie pretty much lunged and barked at most of them. Sometimes she’d listen to me tell her to “leave it!” and “NO!” and “SIT!!!” But mostly I don’t think she learned very much. Eventually we moved further away and practiced our heeling and waiting. She did better at that.

I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.

  1. Oh Katie, I didn’t realize you love cars as much as I do!

  2. Katie’s habit of barking and rushing moving cars and trucks is why she will likely never be an off leash kind of girl.

  3. I never listen to my Ma either when we’re out… it’s just far too exciting out there to be concentrating on homework. We’re currently practising sit-stays and shake hands when we’re out… Jessie is doesn’t listen much either… but she’s a calm girl. She’ll just flop down next to Ma and then waits until we get moving again 🙂
