Viewing the 'Uncategorized' CategoryNot much going onMay 22nd, 2022 at 05:39 pmRefridgerator was delivered on time. Slowly refilling the refridgeraor and freezer since all the food had to be thrown out. Work has been crazy busy. Many changes. Having difficulty figuring out which project to work on. As much as I dislike looking for a new job it might be time.
May is not off to a great startMay 8th, 2022 at 05:00 pmWell my refridgerator is not working. New one will hopefully be delivered on Wednesday. Will be an interesting few days. I do not really celebrate Mother's day. I have no children and my Mother passed away on Mother's day. Happy Mother's day to all the Mothers and Grandmothers.
Hello MayMay 1st, 2022 at 04:56 pmGlad it is May. April was just not a good month. Many changes happening at work. As much as I hate job hunting it might be time. Net worth is down over 19,000.00 since the begining of the year. Most of this is due to stock market. Hope the slide stops soon. I will work on what I can control like paying down debt. How did I do on April goals. Hit step and water goal. Missed debt payoff by less than $2.00 Missed weight loss goal, but moved in correct direction. May goals Step goal 232,500 Average 44 ounces of water a day. Lose 2 pounds. pay down another 600.00 of debt.
Life Threw Me a Curve BallApril 23rd, 2022 at 02:01 pmLife will never be the same. My brother-in-law died suddenly Wednesday night. My heart is broken. I cannot imagine the pain my sister and her children (boys 24 and 21) are feeling.

Progress on my injured arm is slowSeptember 19th, 2021 at 01:25 amThe healing of my arm is going slower than I would like. Well I guess that is part of getting older. My days consist of working, having PT appointments twice a week and doing home PT exercises. I live such the exciting life. Oh well it could be worse. I think I making slow progress.
End of a what feels like a very long weekAugust 13th, 2021 at 09:58 pmYesterday was my birthday Before I broke my arm I had planned to take Thursday and Friday off. Since I can only work 4 hours a day and feel like I am getting further behind I decided to work Friday. I am doing my home PT exercised at least 3 times a day. That is one of the reasons it will be hard for me to work a full day. I need to have at least 2 hours preferably 3 between sets. It I work a full day it will be hard to space out the workouts. The comprimise might be to do some work from home in the evening. I am coming into my busiest time of year. I see the surgeon on August 24th. Hope to hear there is no issue with me driving and perhaps working 5 hours a day and I can do the other 2 at home. I am only supposed to work 7 hour days. Broken armJuly 31st, 2021 at 10:26 pmLong time between posting. Near the end of June Itripped and broke my dominant arm. The arm needed to be surgically repaired. I had surgery on July 14th, I am currently working half days. I just do not have the energy to work full time, Just plugging along paying down debt and saving a little for retiremet.
Second ShotApril 13th, 2021 at 12:14 amI got my second Pfizer vaccine on Satuday. Had a headache almost immediately after receiving vaccination. Sunday had a low grade fever all day. Took some Tylenol Sunday before bed and work up feeling good this morning. Unfortunately one of the plans I had for two weeks after the vaccination will not happen. I had planned to watch a movie my cousin sent me of my aunts and gradparents with my dad. He passed away Friday.
March 2021April 1st, 2021 at 05:30 pmNot much going on. Work is as stressfull as ever. I am working on adjusting my attitude stay in the moment and not let my mind wander into all the what ifs. Debt repayment is on track to hit yearly goal. Net worth is continuing to move up. Weight loss is not going as well as I would like. However hoping to work on this in the upcoming month.

I will work from home if the weather is questionable.

Since I really do not have a desk, I am working my kitchen table. When I work at the office I felt cut off from people since I work in my own office. Now I really feel cut off. I also feel I am not as productive working form home. March EntryMarch 29th, 2020 at 03:40 pmStill plugging along.

I started at my present job in December of 2010. Took a 10 % pay cut but I was employed with good health insurance. I like my job unfortunately there have been no raises since January 2015. On the plus side the employee contribution to the health insurance has increased much over the last few years. Wins and losses for 2019December 28th, 2019 at 07:07 pmWhile I do not blog often I do read.
