Last week, I had three bad things happen to me in one day. It sucked.
This week, I’ve had two, so far, good things happen. One is something I can’t blog about (but email me if you want to know. I’m happy to share.) and the other is a fabulous interview for a fabulous job! So, [...]

Today is my next to last day to miss work. I am, of course, glad to be feeling better. I sure wish I never had to go back there; the prospect is giving me nightmares. So, I’m reaffirmed yet again that that environment is the root of much of my stress.

It’s funny how yesterday, after I set a goal of making a dent in my inbox, I found other filing and stuff to do instead. It all still needs to get done and all still affects my greater todo list, but the filing was something that once I got started, I couldn’t stop. Today, I [...]
