Why I Work
I should be content to
do nothing. With my spare time, I could read, write, watch television, garden
or find a hobby. At my age, most people have already retired. I have always
been busy with my family, taking care of my house, and taking care of my nine
children and their activities.
Actually, I function
better with being busy. Keeping busy is good therapy for me. Personally, for
me, working makes me feel valuable and keeps me out of trouble. For a number of
years, I worked at a greenhouse. Now, I have been working two days a week at my
daughter’s catering kitchen. Since I work two days a week, I get paid for it
and it makes me feel good and I feel almost like a ‘pastry chef.’ I am in
charge of making the baked goods and a few other items for her downtown Deli
and her catering events.
So, thus begins my
adventures as a so called Pastry Chef.
