Stressed still

Well my class started.  I am not sure I really like the online classes.  Basically you do all the work by reading and then teaching yourself, and you do it in 1/2 the time or normal classes.  Even though it is a 3 credit hour class I am expected to spend at least 2 hourse [...]

Another Day

Im so frustrated today.  I was cleaning out the old receptionists desk and giving instructions to the new one when I found three boxes underneath.  They were about 1,200 christmas cards from last year that were supposed to have been sent out.  Normally this is my job to do…but since I was on maternity leave [...]

Negative!

Well I am a bit relieved that the other two tests for my sister came back negative.  So she’s not pregnant, but I did tell her that she has to go to the doctor’s and get checked out.  For her period to be so late is NOT normal.  She also needs to be on birth [...]

Link Between Teen Pregnancy and Sexual Violence

Since the situation with my younger sister has arose, I have looked a a little more into teen pregnancy.  I found a few blog posts that linked back to the same Feministe article about young girls and their past histories of violence and how that can make major impacts on the rest of their lives.  [...]

Some good news…maybe?

Interesting Little Tidbit

I received an email from MoveOn.org this afternoon talking about the energy crisis and John McCain’s support of big oil.  I thought it was a fairly interesting read.
You can read the whole article here.
They do a good job of laying out the facts of what tax-cuts, breaks, subsidies, etc, that large oil companies are getting, [...]

Food Poisoning

Well, I was lucky enough to eat some back chicken salad on Tuesday… and I spent the entire evening wishing I was dead.  It was completely horrible.  I have never had anything like that in my life, and I never ever want to have it again.  Luckily (if you can say that), D didnt get [...]

Just Another Manic Monday…

Well we had our second interviews for the receptionist job.  I am pretty happy with the three candidates that we have.  They all have fairly good backgrounds / work experience / computer knowledge.  Now the hard part is that I have to decide who to hire.  Each person is completely different personality wise.  I need [...]

Where to?

So D and started talking about where we would potentially be living next.  Well, really I was grilling him for info, but thats neither here nor there.  He informed me that we have about four choices: Norfolk, Mayport FL, San Diego, or Hawaii.  Since he has already lived in Norfolk, he’s not really too excitd [...]
