  • 2018-02-05 Choosing the Bright Side

    I’m ready and waiting for another great week! I did a fair amount of ranting last week, but, you know it’s all just temporary. All of it. Life itself is temporary and too short to not be loving it. One can choose to linger with the devil and his details or let go and embrace…

  • 2018-02-04 Super Sunday Status Update 🏈🏈🏈

    Minus the footballs but.. Eagles and Patriots? How very American!! 🏈🇺🇸🍟(News flash.. Apple pie was replaced by McDonald’s as the iconic food of our people in 1992.. sad panda). I’ll probably stream it in my office and watch for the highlights (ie. commercials) with a nice selection of Whole 30 compliant fruits and nuts. I’ll…

  • 2018-01-29 Why I Love Mondays Now

    I used to dread Monday. I used to wake up after a terrible nights sleep to the realization I had to go to work and there would be no reward. Well.. not zero, the shining light at work was my co-workers and believe it or not the work itself. I liked my work. I always…

  • 2018-01-29 This is What Happens…

    …When you substitute what you should be doing with everything else that’s not what you should be doing. Every day we have to make choices about what to do with our time. Much of that is dictated by choices we have already made. We have to go to work because we need to pay the…

  • 2018-01-25 There are Rules?

    Yesterday I finished a third section in the AWS Cloud Guru courses for taking the solution architect associate exam. I’m still only 20% of the way through the the material. I took the practice test and missed 2 questions out of 21 and subsequently retook the test so I could get 100%. Cuz that’s how…

  • 2018-01-23 In a Tuesday Kind of Mood

    My car needs new tires. My daughter is home sick today. And I only had 6 hours of sleep last night. Ugh. On the bright side, yesterday I finished patching the hole in the wall where I punched out my old thermostat and that’s ready for painting. I also opened and filed all my paper…

  • 2018-01-19 On Balancing Budgets and Traveling

    Well.. I did it. I asked for more work. So now if I get too much, I only have myself to blame. I’d like to target 25 hours a week. I’ve seriously been number crunching daily and looking at all my bills and accounts. I’m spending less than I have for years and for the…

  • 2018-01-16 The Need for More

    It’s cloudy an 0 degrees outside right now. Yet here I am at the gym again. It’s a random Tuesday morning in January and I’m trying to find motivation to do anything. I swear that medicine I took for my migraine two nights ago is still lingering in my system. I had a tough time…
