Oh isn't this cute? Font colors! Hmmmmm......kind of bored at the moment. It's almost April 1st, or more importantly it's almost payday. With a little luck my pay will post by tomorrow morning since the 1st is next Sunday. Sunday payday is a bit tricky, but I'm pretty sure it will post tomorrow. I hope so anyway.

It was one year ago today, just about this time in the afternoon, when my partner's Father collapsed and then suffered respiratory arrest a few minutes later. I remember it as if it happened just an hour ago. I have relived that moment every day for the past year. The panic and dispair I was feeling at the time produced a fleeting, 1 second, ( Read more... ) -
Friday, March 3, 2012. A blah Friday.
Thunderstorms hitting us today. Gray skies, drab looking outside, still barren from winter. In another month the vegetation should start showing hints of green follage, and the grass will start greening up, and we will know Spring is finally here, after a long winter. Frankly it can't arrive soon enough for me, but then patience was never one of ( Read more... ) -
Wednesday, Februrary 29, 2012. Another School Shooting
The latest school shooting was in Ohio several days ago. A picture of the gunman was on the internet. He looks like he weighs maybe 120pounds. As of now I know 3 students have died from their injuries, and others wounded. In a matter of seconds he destroyed his life and the lives of others for what I have heard is no reason at all. At his ( Read more... ) -
Wednesday, February 23, 2012. Sad songs for a blue day.
Listening to blues music and Adele's song, "Someone Like You", a soulful wrenching song that's beautiful to listen to. I am so glad Adele swept the Grammy awards with 6 grammys ( Read more... ) -
Tuesday, Feb 22, 2012. Blah and then some.
Hmmm.....kind of blah today. A vacation would do me good. But my mood is probably weather related, middle of winter blues, and money issues of course. The company that repaired our lake house last summer finally sent us the bill. Our insurance company covered everything but the $1,000.00 deductible, and we had the restoration company do an ( Read more... ) -
Tuesday, February 21, 2012. I did it!
Yesterday evening, after work, I went to my gym and got in a really good workout. I enjoyed it too. The front desk guy was there and I felt obligated to talk to him for a few minutes. He's gotten engaged too! Man, he is one handsome man. Anyway, he told me he would like to take me through the "weight lifting" program whenever I had time, so ( Read more... ) -
Monday - February 20, 2012. Monday workday blues, etc.
After a 3 day weekend it's back to work today. A quiet and uneventful weekend which was enjoyable and passed all too quickly as they usually do. But I did notice one particular thing and that is I constantly check my email and internet throughout the weekend. Most times there isn't anything of relevance and I wonder why I check it so often?

Funny thing about memories, they never remain buried for long. Some times when you least expect it a memory is triggered by an event as simple as something you watch on television, or a smell, or some trivial little life event. I dated this guy once who wore a brand of cologne from Avon and years later, after we parted ways, a guy I worked with ( Read more... ) -
Tuesday, January 31, 2012. Ramblings and health reassessment.
So I weighed in on my gym's scale, after my workout, and registered 211.9 pounds. When I walked inside the locker room to change out of my street clothes there were 3 or 4 guys getting dressed, and for some reason I didn't want to weigh myself with them in the room. The last time I went to my gym was 3 weeks ago, and weighed in at 211.6 before ( Read more... )
