  • 2018-08-16 I Don’t Miss It

    Yesterday turned out to be kind of a terrible day despite how great it started out. I was Swamped with meetings and I ended up having to do a call in my car going to the high school and back because my darling daughter forgot something she needed. From my own house that a 6…

  • 2018-08-15 OMG It’s August

    I know, I know.. it’s been August now for more than two weeks but it’s going by so fast. I’m not prepared for the end of summer, I’m not prepared for both my kids attending high school, and I’m certainly not prepared for the other things coming up in the next two weeks. It’s gonna…

  • 2018-08-14 Transition is Always Tough

    Yesterday I took my kids shopping for school supplies. It was an effort to get them to face reality – school starts this week (today for C and tomorrow for Z). No more sleeping past noon and staying up super late. How late I don’t know because I typically fall asleep around 10PM. They actually…

  • 2018-08-13 In the Zone

    Yesterday was a perfect, quiet day. I got my workout in early and did some house chores. After that I was still not feeling the school vibe, despite impending doom. I really should come to terms that I don’t have to be “in the mood”, to work on what is supposed to be homework. I…

  • 2018-08-12 Sweet and Salty Sunday Status

    You know that whole salted caramel fad? Yeah.. it’s like that. Incidentally that’s a taste combo I never quite liked. In candy at least. When I was a kid one of my favorite things ever was eating lays bbq potato chips and drinking doctor pepper. That was a sweet and salty treat combo for sure,…

  • 2018-08-11 Contemplating Full Time

    Guess what? My boss called me yesterday afternoon and “tried” to plant a little seed about me working full time. They want me on permanent payroll putting in 40 (probably plus) hours a week. I say he “tried” because I listened intently and didn’t bite. I’m not sure if he expected me to ask more…

  • 2018-08-10 Making Friday Great Again

    Alexa told me about Space Force about 7 weeks ago (rough flawed memory guess). Yesterday it was all over my social media feeds, liberals angry that America doesn’t have money for basic needs programs yet can invest potentially billions in a new arm of the armed forces. The disgust is warranted, but to me this…

  • 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…
