My Blog

The Great Carrot Chase

I'm in such a funk. It all started when Kory told me I had to start being nice to everyone.  Sounds like an easy thing to do, right?  Not easy. I had decided it was time to start dating whet...

Last year seemed so far away

Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of my divorce being final.  It seems like forever ago since I "took out the trash", so to speak.  Yesterday was so busy, I didn't even have time to si...

Who knew?

I know I just posted fairly recently, but I'm learning new things all the time and I just feel compelled to share them. It's amazing how much we do when we're not thinking and how much of an effect it...

Blah....whatever.

It's been a long time since I blogged, so I figured I had better update. Where to start..... School is an ongoing struggle, as usual.  Took the CMA certification class and passed a couple of week...

Sunshine and Farts

Hah!  Once every six months or so, I realize that I have figured it all out.  Then, of course it changes and I have to figure it all out again six months later.  But for now, let's just...

To Scrooge or Not To Scrooge....

Two bad nights at work, having to work on Thanksgiving and not go to Colorado with the rest of my cousins, and various other factors are leaving me with a choice in this holiday season.  Bah-Hum...
