As I awoke this morning from a deep sleep, these were my thoughts. I saw the year hazily unfold before me filled with opportunities taken, dreams fulfilled, wishes met. I shall entertain nothing less. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/prompts/entertain/

Week 2: chronic bronchitis
Well, I spent the first week of 2018 battling chronic bronchitis. It’s taking even longer than usual. I’ve basically been sick since Christmas Eve. I have taken 1 round of antibiotics. Looks like I may need a second doze. That’s about it really. Chronic bronchitis kinda sucks. I hate all the coughing and congestion! At…
Week 1: 2018 blogging goals
I admire those of us who can post a blog everyday! It’s pretty amazing. I think this past year, I may have managed on average maybe 2 posts a week. As I sat down to think about my writing goals for the new year, I very much wanted to #apostaday but I know it will…
Changes, chaos..equilibrium?
Equilibrium..that is what I am hoping for, sooner or later. But I’m not there yet. I started my new position a week ago. And with it came changes in job functions, routine, processes, work spaces. Many of these changes are good and indeed welcome. Nonetheless, changes can create chaos and this is where I am…
Remember what they said about assuming?It’s true.
A few months ago, I saw some blueberries on sale at Aldi and decided to buy some. They were like 99 cents! And to my utter surprise they were really quite good. I started putting them in smoothies and grabbing a handful to have as snacks at work. So this morning, I’m looking for something…

Exhaustion + Sleep deprivation = ?
I love math and science! In fact I love Math and Science so much I ended up switching careers from Higher Ed to working in a lab. I do science things all day, they challenge my mind and I absolutely love it! But.. Yes there is a but. Working in a lab means being on…
A sudden bout of Illness and feeling grateful.
Out of the blue, I just felt sick this evening. It might have been the heat or perhaps something I ate. I don’t know but all of a sudden, I was sick to my stomach. I would feel better when I lay down but as soon as I stood up, waves of nausea just hit…
A wasp in my room
It was a beautiful sunny day today, most of the day anyhow, so I opened my windows early this morning and left them open. The fresh air was so rejuvenating. I worked at my desk in the morning while listening to podcasts. I finished s-town (more about that in a later blog) and caught up…
Oops, Did I do that?
So after neglecting my blog for over a year, I posted a short blog this morning saying simply that I was back. But as with any site, you forget some of the navigational tools so with one key stroke, that little blog is gone. Essentially though, I hope to return and post often.
