Thoughts on Living the Life Creative
I mentioned a couple weeks back my struggle re-adjusting from the weight loss logic I'd learned before and some of my new diabetic plan. Here's something I hadn't expected. My glucose numbers got worse. Not catastrophically, but significantly worse. So I shifted back to what I had done before. And they seem to be... Continue Reading →
It was a birthday week that wasn't a whole lot of fun. Ah well. Let myself splurge a little for celebrations. And then there was the "sick". Nothing serious, I'm happy to report. But a head cold and enough to throw everything off. Hard to get out and exercise, don't really care what I... Continue Reading →
So, I will spare you the suspense. The number at the bottom this week is another good one. Which in some ways surprises me. It didn’t feel like a particularly good week. I had one day where my carb intake blew through the roof, largely without me even noticing. The difference, I believe, is that […]
Seems like I've talked more about the obstacles to creativity recently than actually being creative. Let's see if we can't change that. I recently stumble across a blog for short fiction called "The Drabble". It has been a struggle to find quality short fiction sites that are active. This site actually does fiction, non-fiction,...

While I never forget them (I think of one or the other of them virtually every day), I almost forgot to post this. An important anniversary. My annual re-post. Today is a day worth remembering. Today is the day my family began. Not in the larger sense. There have been folks with my name or... Continue Reading →

(These posts will appear when there is something to report) Unfortunately, today's report isn't good news. With my severance package drawing to an end, it was time to sign up for Unemployment Compensation. A pain in the butt (filling out governmental forms always is) but no big deal. I've done it before. In fact,... Continue Reading →
I didn't have a lot of hope for this week. Went to visit a friend last weekend and that meant some good eating that wasn't always going to be on target eating! Instead, I reminded myself that I could enjoy myself without being ridiculous about it. Based on the number at the bottom, that... Continue Reading →
Just a quick update this week. Going to be busy this weekend. Which means lots of eating challenges. Need to keep the long range goal in mind, while still having some fun. I really ran out of motivational gas this past week. Seven inches of snow put a serious kink in my exercise. Since... Continue Reading →
I'm gong to make these posts occasional from here on out. At the moment, there's just not a lot to report on. I"m still grinding away, applying for any job that looks interesting or for which I may be even somewhat qualified. I am discovering the joys of networking! There is a great organization here...
