As I did this, I noticed something unpleasant. Someone had failed to pick up their dog's do-do and I stepped in it - multiple times! But isn't that just like life?
Job Searching During a Pandemic!
A couple months ago (yes, it has been that long since I last posted something - my apologies), I mentioned that I was stressing about my job ending and having to find a new one. There was a huge job fair here in town back in February. Because I know the organizers, and trying to … Continue reading Job Searching During a Pandemic!
What is your definition of success?
Over the last 25 years, I have worked for a lot of different companies in a variety of positions. My kids make fun of me for this. My very first job was when I was 17 at a small family-run butcher shop with a big reputation. People drove from hours away to shop there. It … Continue reading What is your definition of success?
Are you connecting with your spouse?
In my last blog, 'Are you experiencing SADness?", I listed some of the stressors that are currently going on in my life. One of the things I listed was my marriage.

Are you experiencing SADness?
I will be honest here. Things have not been going that well for me as of late. It is one of the reasons I have not really been writing. I have had a few meltdowns in recent months. I have missed a few days of work because I couldn't get out of bed. I have … Continue reading Are you experiencing SADness?

It was there that I was able to purchase, and get hooked on, a new … Continue reading Whose pattern are you following?

Hooked on a Feeling
In my post a few months ago, "You do not have my consent!" I quoted Warren Buffet and his thoughts on having an emotional response to everything that is said to you. After some recent experiences and research, I kinda disagree with him. On Wednesday, I was on a conference call for the weight loss … Continue reading Hooked on a Feeling
What do you expect?
I once heard on a radio talk show that unmet expectations are the main cause of failure of just about every relationship. And when you really think about it, at its most simplest form, this is true. When you look at the last time you got mad at one of your kids, what happened? You … Continue reading What do you expect?
