Monday, Monday
Monday, July 28th, 2008After having had a fun weekend of barbecuing and a train ride in Virginia City, work was the last thing I felt like doing this morning…especially since our e-mail server was switched over the weekend. As we suspected, our computer network did some funky things today and I was forced to spend a majority of […]
Who Are You?
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008We’ve probably all “Googled” ourselves at one time or another and for a variety of reasons. But have you ever thought about the other people who appear when you put your name into the search engine? While the name I use now is not the one I was born with because I took my husband’s […]
Strange Day
Monday, June 23rd, 2008Sometimes I don’t realize how much I appreciate my “comfort” zone, but minor changes to my normal routine really throw me for a loop. Several things happened today that changed that routine so I’m feeling a bit out of sorts tonight. The main difference is that hubby is on the opposite side of the country […]
Summertime
Sunday, June 22nd, 2008We’re now officially in the summer season and the temperatures are already heading up into the 80s on a regular basis. This is the perfect weather to head to the beach and relax in the sun for about ten minutes (I’m a pale-skinned blonde of Irish ancestry so even that may cause a sunburn). This […]
Drama
Wednesday, June 18th, 2008Even my enjoyable low-stress job is prone to the drama and office politics and I have to say that I am somewhat disappointed. Still, I much prefer my current work environment to any of my previous positions and I’m very happy with what I’m doing for the time being.
Here’s to finishing up a Wednesday workday. […]
A Quick Good Morning
Tuesday, June 17th, 2008Today is a bright and sunny Tuesday just before the official start of summer and I’m ready to head off to work after having spent yesterday in a haze of exhaustion. While most of my job is pretty laid back, I have several projects piled on my desk at the moment (massive amounts of copying […]
Saturday in the Park
Saturday, June 14th, 2008I think it was the 4th of July…
Or Flag Day, actually. Today is the 231st anniversary of the adoption of the United States flag - and today is also the 233rd birthday of the United States Army. This is a good time to think about the men and women in our various military branches who […]
Day Is Done
Monday, June 9th, 2008Another Monday has come and gone. Work wasn’t too bad, but I was dragging after having been on vacation and due to the warmish temperature (we were forecast for a high of 81 degrees). Though nothing much worth discussing happened in my little corner of the world today, I’ve promised myself that I’m going to […]
Weekend’s End
Sunday, June 8th, 2008One of the joys of living in Northern Nevada is that we such a beautiful variety of scenery to enjoy. The photo above was taken at Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, just a half-hour from our home base. A gorgeous location within a reasonable driving distance - even with current gas prices. The […]
Come Saturday Morning
Saturday, June 7th, 2008At the moment, life is pretty good. I’ve just had a relaxing week off and I’m getting over having been sick for a couple weeks so the world is looking bright and cheerful again. On Monday, I’ll be mostly ready to head back to the office to face the real world once again. I’m sad […]
