Last Day

I was asked to resign at work today, or more or less I walked in to find that I had lost my job entirely. They had grown tired of my absences, so it seems. None of the children were sad to see me leave, and I can't say I felt sorry to go. Another day surrounded by their noise and Robbie's puppets would have been too much. To think that a day care full of growing children feels no sympathy for the recovering employee! I won't try to get my job back, but at least I will have more time to catch up on my studies. It is so very silent now without the noises of a bird to brighten my day, and it even the wild birds have stopped singing. Robbie said-in between his chronic apologies and puppet displays distracting me from schoolwork-that it was abnormal for them to be so quiet this time of year.

  1. Something must be scaring them off. By the way, Robbie's just worried about you. ~Rose

  2. For some reason, their lack of sympathy hardly surprises me.

  3. It does surprise me, birds don't really care about the affairs of humans. And Alice, if you and Mary had a falling out, why not keep it civil? No need to make nasty comments on each others' blogs. ~Rose

  4. @Alice: Oh? And what reasonable conclusion have you made to make you think such a thing?

    @EmptyEyes: I believe Alice was referring to the children at the daycare, not to the silent birds. Also; I fail to see how you joining in on these comments is going to help us, Rose.
