Really hard to go to work in the am

When I could sit here all day. . .

Hello Friday!

Supersize my wine, please.

This is what a power outage in Chicago looks like

I've never seen the city so dark! We are lucky to still have power. Power = air conditioning

Yes. I quit.  (No, that is not my resignation letter).  I wish . . .  :)

So, my blogging hiatus was due, in large part, to my frustrations at work.  It is amazing how much a difficult employer can play into your daily happiness.  Part of that is my fault.  I let my difficult situation at work get me down.

Even though my new job is challenging and I miss my friends from my old job, it's a good kind of challenging.  I'm focused on working hard.  I'm not distracted by any extrinsic drama.  It's a dream come true.

I hope to blog more often now that I've relaxed a little :)

Summer

It's like riding a bicycle . . .

It's been awhile.  Since my last post . . . I HAPPILY quit a job.  I HAPPILY started a new job 


and have been 


way 


too 


busy 


to 


blog. 


I've also missed talking to my friends and family.  Life has been too busy and fun lately.  We've had tons of fun company.  I am hoping to catch up in just a few posts.
