To say that I have been stressed is an understatement. I am concerned about the economy, about my finances, about the cost of gas, about the cost of my utilities (esp. my energy bills, which are atrocious), about feeling like I owe more than I make! At times I’m tired of doing [...]

Today was a day filled with meetings. I didn’t really get any work done, so I brought work home with me for the weekend. I really need the two days off to not work, but, I find that I get really behind on our meeting days. After the meetings, we had a farewell [...]

At 9:00, I put on the Discovery Channel while I began outlining a writing project I’m starting. I became entralled by the program called Secret History of the Freemasons. It’s an intriguing 2-part series on the supposed conspiracies of the Freemasons. The first part delves into the many conspiracies. The second downplays it [...]

I woke up freezing cold. Just when spring had finally arrived, wintry cold weather has blown in. It’s just cold. And snow hit higher elevations. The weather predictions show possible snow on Friday, even in the lower elevations. By mid-afternoon, with rain off and on all morning long, the skies cleared, the [...]

My Yogi Ginger tea fortune read: Patience pays.
Today was a great day. I had hired a great professional photographer to come to the winery to take photos of our bottles. I initially planned to get there while he set up, give him the bottles to photograph, and then drive to the office [...]

I had some revelations today. First, I was blindly paying 31.5% APR for my Bank of America credit card. So, I called their customer service line today asking if I could lower my APR and the rep was pretty condescending and said I didn’t qualify. So, I asked him to close the [...]

There’s nothing like making up for lost sleep. I got a really good night’s sleep. I woke up and sorted my laundry, had breakfast, fed the kitties and then got dressed for church. I got there right on time, but parking was nearly impossible. It was raining, windy and cold, and I [...]

It felt like a relapse today. This flu does linger for quite some time. I’m tired and really congested. I woke up and got caught up on my blog. I suffered most of the day without any medication until about 3:00 p.m.
I watched the movie Solaris. It received horrible reviews when it [...]

Today was my first day back in the office in a week. I had to deal with computer issues, powering my laptop and thankfully our IT support came out and helped temporarily fix my power source. Once I was operating, I had to sort through my email and begin to get caught [...]

Today was the last day of the leadership seminar. I got some really helpful advice from two of the women who work at Beyond Words books. Mostly, in considering a smaller publisher for my novel and then pitching my idea of turning my blog into a book, by working with a development editor. [...]
