The Benefits of a Good Nap
It’s Monday Today is Monday and since I recently dubbed today, “Music/Movie Monday”, I had a couple of ideas to write about today related to movies. I’m not at work today and doing as my supervisor suggested, checking email a few times throughout the day, since the campus is closed because of the icy conditions.… →

“Behave Yourself”
5Ws Wednesday—What does it feel like…? I’ve been submitting essays to publications hoping to secure my first “yes”. I have a few that I’ve been rotating through for various magazines.

A Brighter Day
I feel better today. I had an appointment at 11:30 to get my forearm tattoo finished and as I was driving, I was reflecting on the day. Just today. I felt happy as I looked forward to being at home with Josh after my appointment. It was a short appointment, only about an hour and… →

Flashing Back to Lessons Learned
I was tempted to not write a post today. I’ve reached a year with posting every day, certainly I can skip a day. Right? For my lunch break, I sat in the backyard with my dogs and looked at job offerings on Indeed. The desire to quit my job was reintensified when I returned to… →
