Hey there!
This stream of consciousness is intended to be an unfiltered account of my journey to fight my way to a healthier, happier life. One day at a time, one step at a time, one organically-grown-emotionally-raw blog post at a time…

2018-08-09 Morning Musings and Stock Tips
My head is seriously not screwed on straight this AM. I woke shortly after 6 and thought about life for a while, by perusing through twitter and FB, not my normal wake up thang. It was what?! 7:30 before I knew it. Social media is such a time suck. I felt tired. I wandered downstairs…

2018-08-08 Our Twisted Memories
Well.. both my kids are registered for school and they start in about one week. It could not come soon enough for me, considering every day is a fight to get bandwidth on my home internet. Yesterday my daughter basically said to me “you just need to call and get a better plan”. What??! Whatever.…

2018-08-07 A Revealing Retrospective
Back to the normal routine.. Getting to bed by 10, waking up around 6 or 7, doing a quick check on production, taking my morning “meds”, getting to the gym for some cardio, giving some love to myself by writing out what is on my mind. But the time 9:30 rolls around, I typically feel…

2018-08-06 No Time to Waste
It’s Monday again and I’ve got lots of awesome in queue this week. It looks to be busy with a full assortment of work, school, appointments for the kids and kitten, and meet-ups. The work week is front loaded with tasks that are time sensitive and I’m hoping to get most of my hours in…

2018-08-04 The Weekend I Needed
I’m right in the middle of it now. The thing I needed the most. Friday started out with another mini freak-out about not getting enough done and running short on time for everything. I had to mow which was a mess cuz the grass was 2 weeks long and wet. I had to take my…

2018-08-02 Web Form Hell
I want to write a little bit about my day today which includes a visit or my MD, a full set of work, and meeting up with my Texas peeps where they will meet Jin for the first time. Incidentally, the Meetup is also a housewarming party for our mutual friends Mike and Amy who…

2018-07-30 Waking Up in KC
I do so love a good road trip and KC is just the perfect distance away for me to get my fix AND end up in a city with so much to do. Historically there’s been a wide range of reasons for visiting. Great wolf lodge with the kids, worlds of fun and oceans of…

2018-07-29 How is it Still Sunday?
Right now I’m sitting on a bed in a hotel room with two teenagers that just had soda and habitually stay up past 3am. It’s 9:30 pm and I’ve been in 4 states today, driven back and forth across the Missouri River several times, and went 75mph on a roller coaster, speeding toward the ground.…

2018-07-29 Sunday Status – QAD
I don’t have a ton of time today as the kids and I are preparing to skip town and head to KC for a couple of days. Call it the last hurrah before we turn our attention to school starting in two weeks. KC is the only vacation they will be getting out of me…

2018-07-28 My Beautiful Broken Mirror
I slept in again today. It’s Saturday so somehow I feel like the workweek pressure is off even though the day of the week doesn’t matter much with my job when I haven’t yet logged my minimum hours for the week. Still getting almost 9 hours sleep feels like a million bucks. I love to…
