Facing the Crossroads
04/26/08 08:24:13 | 0 Comments
Childhood, for many of us, is a carefree time, filled with warm memories. It can also be a time to return to when navigating the rocky passages and troubled waters in one's life. I found this to be true last weekend in particular.
I am from Ohio. Spent my early childhood years in Marblehead. Most people haven't heard of it, and that's a pity. It's near Sandusky and Cedar Point, which is what most people have heard of.
Be that as it may, it was a great place to... -
Changes: Time to do a little pruning
02/26/08 11:45:02 | 0 Comments
We had a heavy snowstorm last night-amount and weight-wise. Some of the branches were hanging pretty low or were broken. I went out this morning and did some pruning.
So, that got me in the mood. I've been pruning at home and here and there online, cleaning up "stuff" that has outlived its usefulness and purpose. It's a very therapeutic and soothing activity. Very liberating, in fact.

Gardening and parenting are similar, when it comes right down to it.

If anyone has been around the block on the Internet, eventually he or she will connect with someone who they will become close to and it will grow into a true friendship. Just as real a bond of friendship as any we may have in our offline lives.
It saddens me that a rift has occurred between a good friend and myself.
I wish there was some way to mend fences, but at this point, I don't know if the healing can begin at this time.
I just miss her so.

Why Is It???

Why is it that a perfectly good Sunday so often goes down the tubes?
It's bad enough that the weather is cold enough to shatter teeth between the temperature
and the wind chill.
No, I am not a wuss. Just tired of the see-sawing of this particular winter.
Then there are the endless resumes. Those aren't so bad once there is a template.
It's the cover letters that are a bitch. I have landed an interview, over 2 hours worth.
But, I doubt...
