Have you ever noticed that life is full of cycles?  I am sure everyone has–moon cycles, women being graced with their cycles, life cycles…abuse cycles.
At work, I also teach.  It is not in my job description, but it is something I do for ME.  I know I have talked about it before, but I go [...]

The Blues

Last month and this have been months of ups and downs, and I am tired of the rollercoaster.  Really.
August is always a busy month.  It starts with my birthday, then takes off at a sprint, only slowing down occassionally until December.  Most of it has to do with work (I will touch briefly on this, [...]

Uh-Oh, the big 3-0!!

That’s right…I have officially hit 30. 
I was dreading it.  Miserable.  I sulked for two full months before my birthday.  I thought for sure that a part of me was going to die and wither away the second the clock hit 2:36pm on August 4.  Imagine my surprise when everything went so well, I was actually….happy.

I haven’t knitted in awhile, as I said before.  But knowing I was going to be down for a few days, I went and dug up a few UFOs (unfinished objects) to work on and hopefully complete after much procrastination.  I had promised Dwayne to finish his project some time ago, and yesterday afternoon I [...]

Life…saving

Spring Break has come and gone, and with that my first away-from-home conference.  A week back to work, and then I was off to my second conference–the National Hurricane Conference.  This was nothing like my first one.
First of all, I was on crutches.  On the last day of the Homeland Security Conference, I twisted my [...]

So…life has been and will continue to be busy for the remainder of this semester.  I have found that work and school are going to take a vast majority of my awake time, whether I am at work/school or at home.  This upcoming week is Spring Break, and yes I have it off–doesn’t mean I [...]
