Why am I so tired?
5Ws Wednesday It’s Wednesday, so I’m asking the hard hitting questions that start with a W. Today, why am I so tired? Hard hitting question, but easy answer. I’m tired because for the past week, my body has been doing diabolical things to my nervous system. Hormones and work stress have kept my body, not… →

Maybe Not Yet
Talk About it Tuesday There’s so much to talk about and that’s just from today alone. The shorthand version is: I found out some additional things at work related to me and my job. I was gobsmacked. Almost shaking on the inside. I wrote an email that called out the things that were making me… →

“It’s Time To Go“
Movie/music Monday Not a good day today. I’m concerned about the way I feel. Various doctors appointments scheduled this week to try and figure it out. Various applications submitted so that I can get hired somewhere else and eliminate my current job as a contributing factor to how I feel. In the meantime Taylor Swift’s… →

Bravo Marvel!
“Something Good” Sunday I haven’t seen many of the Marvel movies. I think I’ve seen Iron Man 1 & 2, the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, and Infinity War–if that was the first one, I didn’t see the second one. End Game? These movies, while fun to watch, just weren’t my thing necessarily. I didn’t… →

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… →

From Different to the Same
Let me tell you what my honest, very first reaction was to this question…I literally said out loud “not a g**damn thing”. Then I paused for a moment and wondered if I answered this last year. I know the prompts are repeated every day now, but last year I didn’t always answer them each day.… →

I Don’t Want Any Trouble
It’s not talk about it Tuesday today, it’s talk about him. My favorite co-worker is a co-worker no more and because she is at a new job now, I can’t share a laugh about James with her anymore. So let me tell you about James. There’s a building on the campus where I work. It’s… →

Not Tonight Jason!
Today is movie/music Monday and also a day when the prompt is asking about what we think about more, the past or the future. Last year I wrote a very serious post about past trauma. This year, I’m thinking of something more immediate. I’m thinking about the past today because last night (the past) I… →

“Something Good” Sunday—It’s My Life Now
I go back to work tomorrow. After a solid two weeks off. I think this is the case for many people. And, like many people, I don’t want to go to work tomorrow. I’m going to have to start hard-core planning the summer program I supervise. Another one of the programs I supervise is going… →

Let it Snow…But Not Too Much
My idea for Flashback Friday fits perfectly with the second part of this prompt. I don’t “play” in my daily life. I do things for fun, like knitting, crocheting, reading, and/or writing. However, there is one thing that immediately screams, “Time to play!” whenever I see it. And living here in the south, I don’t… →
