Like probably everyone else I'm ready for this craziness to be over. I'm on day 25 of quarantine and it's been quite the ride. I can hardly wait to be able to go back to work. To be back in my little home in Kentucky. To see all my co-workers and friends and fall into … Continue reading Hello, Day 25

Switching on my Brain
This morning the wind is howling across the barn roof that towers above me into a peek. I sit in my little loft nest, sipping my coffee, reading my Bible, praying, and soaking in yet another day of unexpectedness. It's been a journey for me. I've had to deal with attitudes that I didn't even … Continue reading Switching on my Brain
17 Reasons I Love My Job
Yo. Folks, I began writing this on March 6th, then my computer cord died and I had to wait to finish it until I got a new cord. And we all know March 6th was a lifetime ago. Reading through this again makes me miss my job, life, and co-workers so much. There are a … Continue reading 17 Reasons I Love My Job
This Place Called Peace
Denying reality is something I've been told I'm good (or is it bad?) at doing. I can get into my own little world and steadfastly convince myself that's all there is. This is probably a trait I picked up over the years of having thyroid and adrenal problems - when hearing about stressful/sad things could … Continue reading This Place Called Peace
Having Everything Under Control (A Day in My Life at Work)
Sometimes I pat myself on the back - pretty thrilled that I have everything so under control. Take yesterday, for instance. I woke up at 6:00 knowing I had a project to work on before leaving for my job. The morning started off well, I'd checked my work app several times and knew I had to … Continue reading Having Everything Under Control (A Day in My Life at Work)
The Expedition of Learning Change
During my early morning ponderings, I've come to a rather enlightening (and quite obvious) conclusion: Life is exceedingly full of change and transitions and therefore I must find a way to deal with them faster. The last year and a half I've been working at learning how to embrace change instead of fighting it - to learn … Continue reading The Expedition of Learning Change
The Next Phase
Life is a little less crazy at work during the first few months of the year - that means I'm only working a normal 40 hours a week, and with consistent timings. I also feel like I've finally completely settled into life - both in my little home and with my position on SET. It … Continue reading The Next Phase
The Random Question Game
One of my favorite conversation starters has always been to ask someone what are three random facts about themselves. I'm the kind of person who always has a boatload of randomness stirring around in their brain, so this type of exercise is exceedingly easy for me. I can easily spew out a large amount of … Continue reading The Random Question Game
Oaks of Righteousness
Amusingly enough, if you were to ask me what one of the biggest changes in my life was last year, one of the first things to spring to mind is that I went from being a night owl to an early morning person. I keep contributing that to the fact that I moved out of … Continue reading Oaks of Righteousness
‘Tis a New Chapter Indeed
I didn't stay up until midnight last night. That was on purpose, and I had a delightful time greeting the New Year with the soft light of dawn. Beginnings of months always make me happy - it's like a fresh paragraph, just awaiting thoughts, experiences, and adventures to spill on to the page. A new … Continue reading ‘Tis a New Chapter Indeed
