I don’t even remember where I found the link below, but I really enjoyed reading the comic. About a year ago, I was pushing myself to do a bunch of writing that I didn’t find very exciting.  I ended up with burnout.  Now, I’m struggling to get back to where I was before I started […]

So I’m on day 6 of my goal to write at least 1000 words a day.  But I haven’t met the goal even one day except if you want to count work emails.  For those, I’ve written plenty.  There have been issues with at least one person I work closely with – she doesn’t act […]

After the drama earlier this week with politics, I’m sure I’m not the only one thinking we need to start treating these politicians like children.  Maybe it’s time for them to go back to school and learn about sharing or compromise.  Grr, it’s aggravating that they have so much control over what happens when they […]

I decided sometime yesterday that my goal for this year is to write at least 1000 words a day.  They won’t all be on this blog, but this is going to be where I start.   There’s so much going on in my life, and it really helps to get everything out. In July, we […]

As the year comes to a close, I realized that I haven’t posted a lot this year.  There has been a lot on my mind, but it doesn’t always translate well to the screen. I saw an article several weeks ago about the McRib.  It was talking about how the McRib is processed meat.  Well […]

I’m feeling like a bad mother tonight.  My son got home from Afghanistan on Saturday, but I missed his post on Facebook.  I have too many things in my news feed (like pictures that friends post that they like… they’re funny, but enough is enough).  I think it’s about time to start cleaning up my […]

It’s funny, we all pay the consequences for the decisions we make.  Some of us seem to be aware of this, and some of us take the victim route instead. Right now, I’m dealing with the latter.  The person I’m talking about has 2 kids and has been married for a very short time to […]

Last year, the CDC posted a blog entry about the Zombie Apocalypse (opens in a new window/tab).  No, they weren’t actually expecting zombies to pop out of the ground.  Instead, they were trying to make a point about being prepared for bad weather. Then last week, I was reading an email from Natural News about […]

More food for thought. I used to struggle with the fact that I’m an introvert.  When I was growing up, I’d read during my free time.  In grade school, I’d read during the time after I finished a test before the test time ended.  At least one of my teachers found it hard to get […]

I started this post on May 5, but then got sidetracked, as has been happening a lot lately. So today I watched the parade for Tri-State. The parade started out with older cars, with a dance school, then ended up as a band parade.  Once the band parade started, it brought back a lot of […]
