My wife's hand squeezes my arm gently during the night to let me know she is struggling to come to terms with this day to come.

My Life in the Georgian Era
What a day! I'm exhausted. If I look at one more number I will scream! After finally finishing the books of 5 clients my boss expects me to finish 6 more. I don't know if I have it in me. My brain is fried. I'm only working at 65%...70 on a good day. Sometimes I feel like this isn't my life. Sometimes I feel like I don't belong in this 'rat race'. All I do is wake up, go to work and come home exhausted and pass out only to wake up the next morning to do it all over again. I'm not living. I'm existing.

Voice Of A Mill Girl. Top Story - July 2023.
Lawrence, Massachusetts, January 12th, 1912 I tried to quicken my pace up the wooden stairs of the Washington Mill that morning. My boots hit each step with vigor. The temperature was below freezing and the holes in my gloves let in raw cold causing my fingers to turn blue. I could hear several women in front of me racing before the toll clock struck seven. I kept my head low when passing the foreman who was looking for any sign among us as to who was an instigator of possible things to come. I walked swiftly past my station where I created wool for men’s high-end suits and women’s coats sold at places that I could not afford. I tucked my own coat filled with patches in the closet labeled for workers and headed back to my spot.
