Royal Fool

Aflac has made a royal fool out of me.  They said job in Customer Service.  I said OK, I will do the training.  It turns out this is nothing but a SALES GIG.  I am so embarrassed, I told everyone I had a job and it really isn't.  Its just cold calling on businesses, and walking into businesses who don't want you there. I would be conscripted to days of endless cold calling.  I have been kicked around enough already, I am not going to intentionally put myself in places where I will be thrown out.  I am very disappointed in myself that I fell into their trap.  I spent all this money to move to Milford, all to no avail.

On a happier note,  in early July I was invited to come with my sister to Mt Desert Island, Maine. She and friend Dorie were attending the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators summer event in Bar Harbor.  Dorie's friend owns a lovely little cabin on a lake on Mt Desert Island.  We were so lucky to be able to stay there.  It was foggy for half of our drive north, and most of  Thursday.  Friday and Saturday were just beautiful. Friday Sue let me use her car to drive around Acadia NP and the island.  very pretty place.  Saturday the artists (and me) were taken by bus and ferry to Swan's Island.  Again, a very pretty place.  I took so many photos, and will post only a few.
