Hello all. This has been a pretty lousy weekend, so far. It started yesterday. Actually yesterday started out pretty good. It was unseasonably cool yesterday. I made a run to the CB Recycling center to dump a load of tree branches that I’d picked up at church, then to Home Depot, Best Buy and Bed,Continue reading “health”

time for a survey: stupid policies
May I take a moment to post a little rant? I hope so. As I begin my rant, let me say this quite clearly: Omaha World Herald, I hope you do some kind of daily yahoo or google search to determine what your readers think of you. Why? Because YOU HAVE A REALLY STUPID POLICY! Continue reading “time for a survey: stupid policies”
saturday
Well, there’s still nothing happening on the job front. There’s a tiny little ripple… we’ll see. Scott and I had a great time at his family reunion last week. I had hoped to blog about it while there but really there wasn’t much time. The Hays Family Reunion differs from my own family reunions inContinue reading “saturday”
clm stuff
One of the things I’ve heard over and over… and it’s generally a truism… is that we shouldn’t let what others think of us worry us. And yet, I think it’s pretty obvious that is easier said than done! For better or worse, unless one is willing to completely disengage from the world, what othersContinue reading “clm stuff”
not a flash in the pan
Scott and I just got back from having dinner with Dad. It was nice, we ate at Fernandos, a rather 3rd rate Mexican restaurant in West Omaha. But the waiter was nice and the food wasn’t terrible. Just too high priced for the quality. Unfortunately, down in South O there are far better ones thatContinue reading “not a flash in the pan”
my what a day
Today started off innocuously enough. Our typical morning routine: get up, watch the news, watch a little of one of the saved programs, get showered. Then, we began to deviate from our schedule a bit. Instead of Scott heading off to work, we drove down to the courthouse and applied for a marriage license! TheContinue reading “my what a day”
weekly clm assignment
This is my “homework” for week two of “Rediscovering Relationship with Self”. Reflect and Journal about an experience when you worked in a spiritual gift area that is one of your LOWEST scored areas. What did it feel like to work in that arena? Was it frustrating to try to arrive at a successful outcome?Continue reading “weekly clm assignment”
more thoughts on last night
As I think about last night’s unusual conversation with Dad, I’m struck by the thought that, in a way, we’ve come full circle. Thirteen years ago, last month, is when I first came out to Mom and Dad. I don’t think about that too much, as it was quite a painful experience of all threeContinue reading “more thoughts on last night”
o.m.g.
PLACE: Driving with Dad after a nice evening with Uncle Lyle, Missy, Jim, Molly, Timmy and Toby. And of course Scott. DAD: “So, is Scott going to do that thing?” ME: “What thing is that, Dad?” DAD: “I don’t know… that thing. You and Scott going to do that thing?” ME: “Well, I’m not sureContinue reading “o.m.g.”
Pay Back
They say payback’s a bummer. As you probably could tell from the blogs during our trip, we had a great, relaxing time. The drive home, was not so relaxing, though. Yesterday, I met with a recruiter and we went over my resume. She has a position in mind, and I’m waiting to hear more now. Continue reading “Pay Back”
