The First Conference Day
Well one of my biggest personal concerns has been put to rest. People are dressed all over the place. From jeans and tee shirts to dress slacks and shirts. I guess my khaki and polo choice was...
Out on my own
So, it is the morning of day two of the conference and I am up from a long day of travel and ready to learn something new to bring back to work. I am a little nervous that this will not be worth...
School Boards, Auctions and People
I have cut the final tie to my old life today. I resigned from the School Board, and it is done. I gave 19 years of my life to that place and had little to show. I think that is the real is...
Therapy
We should start today off by talking about therapy. I am at a loss about what to do. I think my time at BetterHelp is close to done, I think they have done a wonderful job, but at this point in...
Working towards success
The new site is live and with minimal issues so far. A couple things worked on the desk machine that gave us some issues when we moved to the server. Nothing major. Some java script for substi...
Some level of success
Well, what the hell do we do next. Not sure to tell the truth. The new site build should be live tomorrow morning, and then on to planning the next phase. It only took about 3 months longer th...
5 things I am grateful today.
Five is going to be a hard number to reach but I am going to give it a try since yesterday was Easter and we should all have something to be grateful for. I can start with the fact that my kids ...
A new week.
What is on my mind today. It is the start of a new week and I really want to focus on me the coming week. By focus on me I don’t mean in a selfish way but rather on making a better me. I am st...
The Struggle
People struggle every day. I am not the first and I surely will not be the last. That does not make my struggle any less real to me. I have a hard time every day. Just facing those around me ...
Just a little entry
Yesterday was a successful day, mostly. For the most part everything went as planned. Not fully as planned but for the most part. The new website is progressing nicely, and I am starting to se...
EEYORE complex
Once again, a day with the EEYORE complex. I have a serious case of the woe is me issue. It seems far easier to find issues to lament about than to see the positive. It seems I spend my life s...
I often feel I am letting people down.
I spend a great deal of my time feeling like I let people down, often in small ways but I still disappoint. A friend needed me to measure a suitcase for him and I totally forgot. I put it off and...
What is an ideal day?
I am not sure what this would be, but it was a prompt that spoke to me. I love going out and being around people, just walking a quality mall is always relaxing. There is something about being ou...
When you did no wrong in your eyes.
To apologize for a mistake, you should first acknowledge what you did wrong and take responsibility for your actions. You can then express genuine remorse and sincerely apologize to those affecte...
When things go wrong
Why do I only come back here when shit happens in my life? It seems like when thing go wrong I come here to share it but I rarely come here for positive events. I don’t understand why I feel th...
Alaska day 7
This was very laid-back day and a short stop in Ketchikan. Very heavy food day. Crab cakes, Smoked Salmon, Fish and Chips and Gelato just in town alone. Ketchikan really did not do much for me...
Alaska day 6
This was a really nice town, but the highlight of the stop was whale watching. We saw a pod of 3 Orcas and around 10 Humpback Whales and a mother and her calf. After the whale watching we went ...
Alaska day 5
Skagway, what can I say other than I have now visited and know I would not like to live here. It is a two and a half hour trip to the nearest big bulk store and that is if the border is open. T...
Alaska day 4
The views this morning was amazing and we entered Alaskan Time Zone during the night. The temperature is starting to drop, and we reach Tracy Arm Fjord today and I will see my first glacier up c...
Alaska day 4
Up early and sitting on the balcony. Around 50 degrees and a little breeze. We saw something big breach the water, we are not 100% sure it was a whale though. We are whale watching in Juneau, ...
Alaska day 2
Walked down to a local market today and talked to Jenny the whole way. It was about 4 blocks but coming back was all downhill, so I only had to worry about making it there. The hotel is very ni...
Alaska day 1
It was a long flight and a long day so this will probably be fairly short but I told myself I was going to write about the trip every day. I have never worn a mask for that amount of time nonsto...
07/21/2021
What does not kill you makes you stronger. I don’t necessarily agree with that statement. Something might not kill you but leave you so broken and emotionally devastated that you are unable to ...
07/19/2021
I’ve been so busy I have not had much time to write lately. Which is a shame because I believe it helps me get my thoughts together and focus on my day. Things have been going pretty smoothly t...
6/23/2021
Well I am feeling like shit today, hardly any sleep. I had a very difficult day yesterday and have yet to recover emotionally. My daughter cuts and yesterday she cut really badly. I am not the...
