When you're going through hell, keep going. ~ Winston Churchill It's been radio silent for a bit. Stuff has happened. I'm sure I did more then work, sleep, eat and take bathroom breaks. The reality is since I last posted there's been little more than working and sleeping with an emphasis on working. The British…Read more Working from Home: Weeks 55 and 56 and 57

Working From Home: Week 54
Be selective with your battles; sometimes peace is better than being right. Wow, what a week it has been. I'm still mostly working from home. Right now that means, one day a week I'm in the office to do all the items I can't do from home. I've been a bit tired/headache from the first…Read more Working From Home: Week 54
Getting Vaccinated: The First Dose
Science is magic that works. ~ Kurt Vonnegut This past week there was a federal mandate that all preschool through grade 12 educational employees qualify for COVID-19 vaccines. Within 12 hours of this mandate, my insurance provider had their online services updated, and I qualified for an e-ticket. I was then able to schedule an…Read more Getting Vaccinated: The First Dose
Working From Home: Weeks 52 and 53
The one who falls and gets back up is so much stronger than one who never falls. It's been another two weeks. The British Hubby is still sole working from home. I'm mostly working from home. These two weeks have felt a bit like an eternity. Could be because we hit the year mark on…Read more Working From Home: Weeks 52 and 53
One Year Ago
Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them. ~ Dalai Lama On March 2, 2020, I packed up my work items for what I thought would be a few weeks at home. I was sort of excited about the thought of getting…Read more One Year Ago
Working from Home: Week 51
He who is not satisfied with a little is satisfied with nothing. ~ Diogenes As the number continues to climb up, it seems hard to believe we're still working from home.

Working from Home: Weeks 49 and 50
Life is very fleeting. Seize the moments when they arise. February can be a hard time in the PNW. It's cold. It's dark. Many days we don't see the sun. It's also a hopeful time. The days are getting longer. Spring feels right around the corner. These past few weeks have been mostly cold with…Read more Working from Home: Weeks 49 and 50
Working from Home: Week 47 and 48
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Last week, I stared at my screen and tried to will myself to have something to write that was insightful or clever about still working from home for yet another week. The minutes ticked by. There was no clacking of keys. No sage…Read more Working from Home: Week 47 and 48
Working from Home: Week 46
Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle. ~ Plato Today's quote struck an accord with me this morning. When we talk with friends, family, coworkers or even people we live with, how much do we really know what's going on behind the scenes? As an introvert, I am aware of my…Read more Working from Home: Week 46
Working from Home: Week 45
When you act with compassion you will never be wrong. Wow. I had a very different working from home post mostly prepared for this week. After the events in this country on January, 6, I completely changed course. What the British Hubby and I have been up to over the past seven days somehow seems…Read more Working from Home: Week 45
