It’s been an interesting week and it’s only Monday.  It’ll be something to see how this week goes, though I doubt we’ll see the end result until after October 1, if not later.  I’m still not entirely sure what to think about the job situation.  We were told that our department is going to change to […]

So my ‘normal’ writing may dry up.  That’ll mean more time to blog… The owners of the company I write for are selling.  I just wish I had enough money to buy it for what they’re asking, which  is lower than what they’d ask from someone who is not one of their regular writers.  The […]

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?” ~ Matthew 6:25 Something I’ve learned over the last year.  I need to stop worrying about things […]

I was reading something from a copywriting course that I signed up for, and it got me thinking.  They suggested that if I want a niche to write or blog about, I should find something that I’m passionate about.  The question remains, what AM I passionate about?  What do I find interesting enough to do […]

Or maybe that’s zen.  I always forget how the word is spelled for a silly reason.  A friend of mine used to use the name Xen when playing morts on the MUD. Work is getting more interesting, but it may be a year before we know anything definite about what’s going to happen.  That means a […]

So today, the big-wigs at work sprang a big surprise on everyone.  Everything that we’ve heard is that the company I work for has been doing well.  However, today there was a meeting with the 2 people that founded the company and the current CEO.  They’re doing a merger with 2 other companies, our sister […]

Monday night, I turned my back on my 19 month old son for a few minutes (less than 5 minutes tops) and he picked up a tin can from the trash.  He got his finger stuck in between the lid and the side and cut his finger.  I got the bleeding to stop and put […]

I’ve been doing a lot of extra writing lately.  It makes it difficult to keep up with the updates some weeks.  I’ve also been reading a weight loss blog on the NewsOK website (http://www.newsok.com/fat-to-fit).  It’s rather interesting to see someone else’s point of view on weight loss. I did find out today that a knitting […]

So, I’ve started a new hobby.  One that I’m finding rather fun even though it has nothing to do with gaming or computers (except in that I read blogs to help me find more deals).  There’s using coupons and there’s this. I’m not an expert at it yet, but between matching coupons and sales, I […]

Ok, so I’ve been using a pedometer and trying to increase my steps.  I didn’t hit my goal today.  I only managed about 7200 steps instead of 8000, which is still less than the 10,000 I should be walking for my health.  I am making progress on other aspects as well.  But I still need […]
