Drowning

I've been so busy! I got the job-it's part time-very part time. School is so overwhelming. And the job I am leaving needs me to squeeze in a months work in the next two weeks! Oh, yeah and we are moving.

I'm so glad that prayers were answered. Thanks to everyone who sent them our way!

I was looking at new books our library received. Two were about suicide. I flipped through them and tried to learn what I could in the short amount of time I had.

Well gotta go, if I'm going to stay ahead of the game.

Cheers All!

Limbo


I can now understand why so many people believe purgatory or limbo is punishment. I'm not good at waiting. I had an interview yesterday. I would feel totally confident about if I hadn't been late. Yes-late! The cardinal sin of the job seeker. As fake as it may sound, it wasn't my fault! Not one, but two wrecks made me 15 minutes late. Why didn't you leave earlier you might ask? Well if not for the wrecks I would have been 15 minutes early! I apologized and explained but as of yet have heard nothing! The media did come through for me though. The wrecks made the front page!

As for now-the waiting continues. Maybe I'll listen to all the great songs about waiting. Bob Marley here I come!

I'm Ready!


I've got my resignation ready to go! All I have to do is print it out and sign it! And I'm waiting-waiting for the time to turn that baby in!

Now I'm going to hear a man who (on some level)is responsible for the death of at least 100,000 people. As far as I know he feels no remorse. Tonight, I daresay he will be seen as a hero to many. This may seem harsh, but after his talk is over I will be able to talk more intelligently about him.

So, So Frustrated

I HATE MY JOB! HATE IT, HATE IT, HATE IT! AAAAUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! CAN'T TAKE IT! LOSING MY MIND! AAAAAUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!

A Rose by Any Other Name....

Had this thought last night and had to blog it at my first opportunity. Most of my friends names begin with an A. In fact four of them! The first two letters of their names are as follows An, An, Al, Am.

An, I've know for six years. She is in her thirties and is like a big sister to me.

An, is just a couple of years older than me. I've know her on and off for four years. She is very talented and always full of surprises.

Al, is a few years younger than me. I was lucky enough to met her on a fabulous trip I went on. She has so many cool adventures, is kind, smart, and sassy!

Am, is a person I've know for less than six months. She is full of energy and helps me keep things together at work. I'm looking forward to learning more about her as time goes by.

I'm thankful for all of you ladies! You know who you are-hopefully!

Well, We Movin' On Up!


Call me Weeze!

I was happy 'bout "moving on up" until my dad from the "farm" brought me down. TYPICAL!

Anyway-the long desired move is in its infant stage. We hope to sign our lease and put a deposit down this week.

Send prayers and, or postive energy our way, here comes another "bend in the road" (This is a quote from L.M. Mongomery's heroine Anne Shirley, NOT from Nicolas Sparks)!

Going Out on the Town!

This weekend we get to go to another concert. I hope we can do other fun things while we are in the big city of --.

Today, I've subscriped to 4 academic library listserves. Fun!!! Quite excited about all the things I will learn!

Almost time for tea dears! Must go and have a cuppa!

Cheero!

Money-Get Back!



I had a blog about this subject, but it did not save it properly. Use your imagination!

Now What?

Well, Mr. Darcy got his job. Step one had been accomplished. Unlike the original Mr. Darcy, mine does not have a vast fortune or an estate in Derbyshire, so I'm going to have to find a job too. We are going to have a major pay cut to deal with, but as my esteemed friend from D.C. has said, "Money isn't everything!"

To Move Or Not To Move

I'm sitting in limbo wondering if Mr. Darcy and I will be moving soon. I put my prayers out on the Cursillo listserve and prayers are begin sent up. I've tried (and I am more sucessful than usual) to give my problems over to God. So we are waiting and patience has never been one of my strengths. I'm repeating: "All shall be well and all shall be well and all matter of things shall be well".

MARC 21

Ahhhh my life as a librarian is being redefined. I have met what could be my work's true love, as you could guess his name is MARC-MARC 21. Created in 1960, MARC is short for MAchine Readable Cataloging. He is quite complicated and mysterious. I hope to delve into his inner depths quite soon! EWWW jealous!?!!

Sister, Sister

So what is a "normal" relationship between siblings? I have no idea. Perhaps someone could share what they thing normal is.

As a given I will state that there really is no such thing as "normal" relationship. Maybe averages or social mores is what I'd like to understand. Obviously, no sibling relationship is the same. Alright, now I think that's clear enough. Feel free to share your thoughts, hopes, nightmares and feelings on this subject. Don't all post at once!

Thinking of Writing a Book

Crazy but true, I'm thinking of writing a book. But the only things I can think of are semi-biographical. I've already come up with a code name for my real life mentor/professor: Dr. Teresa Sienna. She'll get it-if no one else does!

How do you start a book? It's not like I have time. Maybe I could blog the book and let my dear readers comment. That would be a great way to proof it. People use to do serial novels in newspapers and mags, this would be quite similar.

Back to work (paid work that is)!

Bye, Bye Holidays

It's sad but true, the holidays are officially over for me. Sure I'll get a day for MLK day, but after that, no more days off until May!

On the positive side it's a new year. The idea of rebirth is complicated and confusing to me, but seeing and experiencing rebirth in the form of a new year is exhilarating! It's exciting to thing about all the things that could happen in this next year. However, if I think about what the future might hold long enough I'll intimidate myself. So while I'm taking stock of my past and planning for the future, I will try to remain thankful and keep a positive mindset. Wish me luck!!!
