Yesterday was Rough

Friday, February 26th, 2010

I was a big ball of stress, some of the residual is still with me but it’s finally starting to release.
I had a day planned of catching up on some chores, making a big brunch for everyone, finishing some assignments and then looking for ways to fix the desktop computer.
Then munchkin broke the laptop. [...]

Work & Health

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I haven’t been writing about this issue because I wanted to get it resolved with my family and my employer before I spoke of it online. It was common courtesy.
I’ve been having issues with my health at work, again. I spoke about the fact that I pulled out my shoulders and was having flare-ups. [...]

Sorting out the Twitter Thing

Monday, January 18th, 2010

For a while I had a separate twitter for the tarot site, and for personal, but I found I was never using the tarot twitter except to advertise sales and wasn’t really networking with the clients, so I canceled it and combined them, but I don’t think that was the answer. I think I should [...]

Long Days

Sunday, January 17th, 2010

There have been some interesting things going on internally lately, we’re sort of reorganizing and rearranging, a bit of a parallel to what has been going on with the house. Our clean-up efforts have slowed down a bit in the past week or so because we’ve had other things that we’ve had to catch-up on, [...]

Avoid Bankers Life & Casualty

Friday, January 15th, 2010

I just got a phone call offering me to come in for an interview two cities away, about a two hour commute for the “Bankers Life & Casualty” company. They wanted me to come in at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday for an interview. However given my Mum was called in for a similar sounding thing [...]

This one’s back up

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

I uninstalled and reinstalled this site, and several of the others are currently uninstalled right now, because I took a break from things and just now have got MOST of this site back together.
I still need to fix the widgets, but it’s past midnight and that’s seriously enough for me right now. My eyes [...]

Locked out of my site

Monday, December 7th, 2009

For the past few days I’ve been locked out of several of my websites because I experienced a serious and malicious attack from a hacker, who had managed to hijack the password to get into my server account and built a subdomain on the back of this site with which to spoof paypal.
I may [...]

New Laptop

Monday, November 30th, 2009

I’ve been talking several times in the past few weeks and months about us getting a new laptop, and over the Thanksgiving weekend we were actually able to do that, thanks to an amazing deal from Office Depot.
I’d been browsing around deals several places. A friend recommended to me that Best Buy had a Sony [...]

Disability Frustrations

Friday, November 20th, 2009

I finally got a letter from disability yesterday, as soon as Kore picked it up at the mailbox I knew that it was bad news. There didn’t seem to be enough in there for there to be anything different, and I was right. They’ve denied my claim. I shouldn’t be surprised by this because I [...]

Trekkie

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

I can’t really say I used to be a hardcore Trekkie because I don’t think it really ever went away it was just muted due to lack of funding and lack of decent Trek things going on.
When we were in England I had a wall screen poster that looked like the layout of the Enterprise-D [...]
