Hey there!

  • 2017-05-13 Austin – Working and Catching Up

    Sadly the first order of business when I arrived on Thursday (after lunch of course) was to dig right into some work stuff that was of the utmost importance, according to my former boss who is now the Chief Operations Officer. Behind that I have feature “X” that is broken and is of utmost importance…

  • 2017-05-12 Austin – The District Kitchen.. 3.5

    On my first night in town Rebecca and I flew solo for a girls dinner out at a place called the District Kitchen, and I had (you can guess), a cheeseburger. It was a bison burger, seasoned and cooked really well with just a touch not enough white cheddar cheese. The fries were good and…

  • 2017-05-12 Live from Austin Texas

    Every time I visit here I’m reminded how this is my home away from home. There is no other place in the world I feel more at home that is not my actual home. I sleep well here, eat well, and generally feel so much better about my life. Most of that is thanks to…

  • 2017-05-11 On the Move Again

    Today I’m on my way to Austin. I’m visiting my Texas bestie, Rebecca, and her family. Our friend Lance is also going. It will be a good trip.. it always is. We all work from home during the day and then do some fun things on the off hours. As usual I have a ton…

  • 2017-05-08 Day Off.. Sort Of

    Today I took the day off and my son Cooper also took the day off so we could spend some QT, just the two of us. At the present moment that means we are both sitting in my bed listening to Fall Out Boy and playing on our respective electronics. It’s the life. 😃 The…

  • 2017-05-07 About a Boy

    There’s a lot going on.. always. You know there’s so much I have to say and so much going on in my head and I could go on about it for hours and hours, but today I think I should just focus on the main event. My son. When it was my daughters birthday back…

  • 2017-05-06 Everything and Everything

    It took me a while yesterday, but I got to a place where I could be free… where my mind could be free. I really needed to disconnect from life and recharge and though I feel like I have farther I should travel on that path this weekend, I’m on my way. For the first…

  • 2017-05-05 Happy FriYay!

    My last post was about sleep being my goal. The ones before that were about my work issues and my relationship issues. The ones before that were about sleep being my goal. I’m detecting a trend. I was once asked why I write. My answer is simply because it is who I am. It’s my…

  • 2017-05-03 It’s All a Blur

    I’m talking about the last two days. I’m talking about the last two weeks. GAWD am I really talking about the last two years??!! I’m currently typing this on my phone wile trying to manage 160 strides per minute on the elliptical machine at the gym. This.. THIS is multitasking. This is how I’m going…

  • 2017-05-01 Happy May Day

    I went into the office this morning and made it about 2 hours before I had to leave again. I felt so seriously not able to focus and really not wanting to be at work at all. I want to work, I was just not physically able. The first thing I did this morning was…

  • 2017-05-01 Quite the Day Indeed

    Yesterday was emotionally draining. To be fair, the last week and a half has been emotionally draining, so yesterday sort of feels like the crescendo to all of that. I really could not take being stuck in a holding pattern at the precipice of unraveling any longer. I had to take a step. That step…

  • 2017-04-30 Closure Conversation?

    I’ve been saying all along, at every turn, that I need closure but that I may never have it. I may never have that conversation. I may never get the chance to say all the things I wanted to say AFTER it was all over. All the things I’ve ever said were things I wanted…
