Woke up, check.

Had my cup of coffee, check.

it’s Tuesday, check.

Escaped a 3am start due to unforeseen circumstances, beyond my control. Check.

<yawn> check.

annnnndddd the brain’s engine just turned over. Off to the races again.

8 million nagging reasons to worry. check.

1 loud reasonable reason to silence the 8 million…

waiting…

no check.

damn.

Yes, it is Monday.

So last night, I didn’t fall asleep until about 3am and even then, I wasn’t “out”. Up at 7 so I can get my brain in gear for the week. Which is also a nightmare as I have to start work at 3am for Tuesday. Maybe being awake so late last night will help me go to sleep early tonight for my extra early morning. Yay for 24 hr stores. <yawn> but at least I’ll have my last project ticket done. Unless something else starts today. Have a great week folks!

Shine On!

Resonance & Reverberations

Who knew? 🙂

Once in a while, there is a tiny sound. Like a dime being dropped on a carpeted floor. A bird chirp. A hamster cough. And it will reverberate and then echo and return, so it’s a little bit louder. And then travel away & come back again. Louder, stronger. And keeps repeating until you feel like you are crouched on the floor, clutching your head, screaming & still can’t hear yourself. Everything is drowned out except that note. That ping. That Resonance. How do you keep from drowning in it? Absorbing it? Owning it? How do you push it away when it’s so much a part of you? “Let the wave pass thru. Only you will remain.” But how to do that when you are in the ocean without a surf board and it’s a 20 foot wave crashing over you?

My solution? I went to sleep. Tomorrow is always another day. A new start. Perspective.

*mental note*- go to sleep before midnight.

Happy Spring!

So I just want to wish all of you who follow Nature, a very Happy Spring! We are in the second half (night) of the Equinox. May the next 6 months be all  you deserve! 🙂 I’m finding with the new spring, is a new wellspring of energy! I’m hoping to put it to good use. I bought my punchcard for the Yoga classes I’m going to begin taking soon. I think I’ve even found the right class. I was worrying about that. It’s only offered once/week on Sunday nights. However, there is a similar class on Tues & Thur nights. I have to figure out what my budget can handle. Which means we need our FREAKING WATER BILL. ugh. If I don’t have it by the next village board meeting, I will be attending and I will start demanding some answers. We were supposed to have it by mid-Feb. I’ve been saving since Jan 1 for this coming bill. I have things to do that require knowing how much money I actually have to spend on them. Like Yoga. 😛 So frustrating. But hey. Have a fantastic weekend & give your loved ones an extra hug. We could all use one.

Finally.

So the computer is finally working and I have taken 2 vacation days from the use it or lose it category. 🙂 So I’m using it. I need to decided if I’m going to do this as an everyday type of thing or if this is going to be a “workweek” only type thing… I’m not sure. Anyways, that’s really neither here nor there. I have too many post-it notes around my computer. I also need to start a home overhaul in the cleaning dept. We don’t really have much storage space as far as cupboards & cabinets & closets go. There’s 1 normal closet off of the kitchen which we’ve turned into a pantry. There’s 1 closet upstairs for all 4 bedrooms to share. (Thank God it’s only my hubby & I that need to hang things up) and then we have this room that the previous owner walled off & turned into a hallway with a long closet. There are 2 sliding doors, but each one is 4 feet wide. Not very practical. So I’m still debating what to do with that since we really only use one half but the contents is forever spilling out into the hall. I’ve been debating it since we moved in. (2002) Guess it’s decision time. Well, have a lovely weekend!!

Shine on!

Bang head on wall…. here…. X

Soooooooo yeah. My computer and I have a love/hate relationship. It’s favorite thing lately has been to totally fritz out, scramble the video & freeze, rendering itself completely useless. One of my friends took pity on me, looked up my issues and gave me solutions. So I reseated the ram & since I already had the P.O.S. open, I reseated the power cable to the motherboard. We’re up & running again. I then looked up the driver updates on the Dell site, let the system do that remote diagnostic thing & it recommended 2 updates. I did the first and I already had the update. I then did the second and lo & behold, the driver it was trying to install was an older version of the one I had. <facepalm> Some days, I just can’t win. So I’ll wait for it to pull it’s sneaky crap again and then pull it’s brains out & squash ’em. <foot stomp> SO THERE COMPUTER!!! TAKE THAT!! Ha. I win.

So you’ll never guess what I’ve done.

I have decided to start a blog. Yep, a blog. I have no idea what it will be about and I have no idea what will be said or done with it. I don’t pretend to know what I’m doing but for some reason I think I might want to say something at some point so I thought this might be a good idea. And if you don’t like rambling, train of thought type of things, then this one is NOT for you. Please go away. Thanks.

That said, I wouldn’t mind if you stayed. Sometimes the world is kind of scary to me. I’m sure it’s scary to you sometimes too. See ya soon!

Shine on!
