So at the advice of a few I'm attempting to post more regular. I'll see how long I can keep this up ( Read more... )

A lot has happened in the past month. Cory started school, 2nd grade. Little man is growing up. Sometimes it feels like I'm so old but mostly it just feels right having him. Sad that not everyone wants a child. It's a very rewarding (frustrating too) experience. Speaking of which, Cory started school just like he finished it with getting in ( Read more... )

Feeling older doesn't hurt so much when I remember I got friends who are aging with me. Clif & Sarah's birthdays were this week. Gotta make sure they get the proper Lion luvin birthday "greeting ( Read more... )

I have concerns about a friend's marriage. How do you know when to say something? It's difficult because I'm not totally objective when it comes to her. We talked the other day and I said things that I had been holding back. She pressed me until I said them. Maybe she could tell what was already on my lips.

Weird week so far. Monday morning had some car problems. Turns out that it was my condenser "popping" and not my radiator.

I had two other more pressing personel issues to deal with. Her turn is next. Talked to my old manager about ways & phrases to instill confidence in an employee. ( Read more... )

I'm still plagued by the dream my best friend had. Kinda stuck in my craw at the moment. Hate to think where it might lead but one can always hope it's all good in the end ( Read more... )

I've got talked to because I'm not keeping up with my tasks at work. Fine. It's because I'm barraged with questions on a daily basis and less than half are legit. This week I put a sign up to take all questions to the program lead. Circled it with a highlighter. Three questions in a row from three different people. The last two were no- ( Read more... )

Frustration, anger, seething, trapped, raging, obliterate ( Read more... )
