You have been waiting, as if your big chance was always just out of reach. Now, however, it’s time to make your move and set aside any ( Read more... )

Still gathering the papers for my bankruptcy, so that I can get that filed before the transition date at my job, since I may not have to pay lawyer fees if it’s already filed when transition comes.

It’s terrifying, but what can ya do? Sadly, this is a world that ( Read more... )

I know it’s early for the usual “I give thanks for…” posts. And I don’t care. I’m in the mood to write it NOW. On the actual holiday, I’m working, anyway, and may work on “1000 Gifts”, but this is my formal, every year “shout out” to the people who have…. who are ( Read more... )

Been slogging through the house the last couple of weeks, which is why there’s been no real updating. A lot of craziness going on, and I’m purging it all….

“The boy” is indicating a 60/40 willingness to come out here for New Year’s…..

Yeah, I see a need coming soon for a “that boy” playlist.

And one for Daddy. I don’t think anyone has realized that last month was 10 years since he died. I thought it was closer to his birthday, but according to the SS database, he died October 12, 1996. ( Read more... )

Danger in the shape of somethin’ wild
Stranger dressed in black, she’s a hungry child
No one knows who she is or what her name is

Today he traded his big 98 Oldsmobile
He got a heck of a deal
On a new Porsche car

He ain’t wearing his usual grey business suit

So I work tonight. But will take VTO as SOON as it is offered, because I would like to continue the momentum I’ve had this week. Sure, lots of lists that haven’t gotten done, but progress IS being made!

And by eliminating all the extraneous crap, I’m going to have ( Read more... )

Ugh… went to the lawyer yesterday to begin the bankruptcy process. Seeing it all in black and white is totally going to suck! But what else can I DO at this point, right?

I thought I would push the PalmSource thing. Yeah, that’s not gonna happen. Can’t wait till ( Read more... )
