Well today was eventful, & not in an exciting way. Work was stressful, but I super-starred my way through the day. I knocked out early to pick up my favorite Sonja from school. She has the absolutely cutest face & smile!

It was off to Wegman's for a shopping trip. A BIG shopping trip. A "we have no food in the house & I just got my bonus shopping ( Read more... )

Today was uneventful.  Just another busy, overwhelming day as usual.  I wore another suit to work - really getting use of clothes I've had tucked away in the back these days.

I need a shake up. I need to not be so routine ALL THE TIME. Do I accept the fact that this is my life for now; home, before school care, work, after school care, home.  Or ( Read more... )

Today was.  Not really a bad day, but busy and the sickness was full force today.  I have been starting everyday with taking special care to get ready - I'm not just throwing on any old thing.  It was a good thing that I wore a suit jacket today (which I NEVER do). I was able to meet the client lead of our contract while he was visiting from Dublin ( Read more... )

I'm worn out and it's only the 2nd day of the month. I'm looking forward to some days off already and I just had my quarterly massage last Friday.  I'm not quite sure what has me worn down, but I see the wave of work for me on the horizon and I'm a bit overwhelmed.  The cold I have contracted hasn't helped either.  Nothing but a sore nose and ( Read more... )

So I'm going to try this again.  Lucky for me the theme is nothing.  There is no theme for the month.  I kinda feel like it's cheating a bit since I don't have to really sit and think about much, but it's hard enough for me to do a post a day - let alone on a topic.  Might as well get while the getting’s good.

I've been thinking about this month for ( Read more... )

My life has been pretty open.  I have few secrets that are worth keeping that way ( Read more... )

I hate how I get all weird with things sometimes.  I’ve been looking inside for the past few weeks - and apparently I can't do that and exercise at the same time since I haven't done any of that in the past few weeks (I'm walking at work and still eating better - so I'm maintaining, but this is NOT the weight I want to maintain).  I don't know if ( Read more... )

I told Sonja that I might organize a Pollyanna with my friends from highschool.  She asked if that was where we write down 3 wishes on a piece of paper.  I responded yes, you can write down 3 things that you'd like someone to get for you so they can get an idea of what you'd like.  She said that she will always only have one wish - to have her ( Read more... )

I've been wanting to write for some time now.  Lots of things going on - have gone on.

Walked Broad Street - from the Naval Yard to Broad & Cheltenham.  It was a 12.6 mile walk that took my 5.25 hours.  I tried this walk in the summer and didn't get past Broad & Susquehanna.  Our first rest stop was Broad & Washington, we had stopped about 5 times ( Read more... )

So, I've been on an emotional rollercoster the past few days.  I think it's going to last a little while longer as well, unfortunately.

I've been crying tears of joy and future hopes by watching this video about a guy named Ben:

And I've been crying tears of hurt from losing Sid and hope that I can find something like it again from this amazing ( Read more... )
