Or lag, lol I’m trying to get my mind off how long it’s taking to come up with the money for the electrical work that needs to be done at the house. I’ve been spending so much money on sheet rock and appliances, I haven’t saved anything. I can’t get too mad, my back window […]

All the work we’ve done on the house over the last few years, and it’s getting close to being done.  It’s not done though, and I’ve got what seems like a lot to do to get it finished. The framing is now done and inspected. The electric is now roughed in and inspected.  We still […]

I was looking on one of the “news” sites one day, and found a bunch of political cartoons.  I thought this one was funny enough to warrant being shared.  I think I got it from Yahoo, but it was originally printed by the Sacramento Bee.   Laterness and G’night.

A friend of mine died last month. He lived to be almost 30, which is considered lucky when you have cystic fybrosis. I can remember babysitting him when he was just 2, and his mom had to walk me through all of the medications he needed. I can remember all the times he was in […]

LOL not for any real reason.  Just as I read a message on Facebook about a severe thunderstorm warning, the storm was right overhead.  The thunder made me jump and my heart race.  Which makes me think… if the lightning is the dangerous part, why do we call it a thunderstorm instead of a lightning […]

I started writing this April 30th and got sidetracked and discouraged. It’s frustrating sometimes reading the press releases from big companies.  The company I work for had a big article in the paper talking about how they’re moving a bunch of jobs from Oklahoma to the corporate office.  The press release said flat out that […]

I got a job search email from LinkedIn today.  In it, it says that my company is looking for people like me… Yea, they are.  They were trying to convince me to move to Cincinnati, OH.  I don’t feel right moving so far away with a step-son who needs his father living here.  He graduates […]
