My Random Thoughts

I thought I had something to say. I actually thought I had a lot to say, but I can’t think of anything at the moment.

It’s Saturday night, I spent part of the day working and still didn’t get as much finished as I wanted to. I’m glad I still have tomorrow. My next assignment will have me traveling quite a bit and the dress code is business casual. I’m hoping I have enough clothes. I don’t really want to buy a lot of new ones, but I have a feeling I’m going to need a few pieces, especially some jackets.

I have a cat sitting on my lap, she’s a happy cat. She just ate so she should be a happy cat. I weighed all the kids today. Nut is going 14lbs, Yum is 12lbs and Wootle and Champage are both 9lbs. Jeff things Wootle is sick, I think she’s the only one who’s actually healthy. Yum and Nut should not be that heavy. Those are big cats!

Since I have nothing else to say, I’ll go back to surfing.

So the header image may not be exactly fallish, but it was taken last september!  Now I just need to work on a header for october.

So while it isn’t always right, you know, it’s certainly been pretty on in terms of my career:

This will be an exciting time for you, for on September 2 Saturn, the taskmaster planet, will make its exit from your lofty tenth house of career status and promotion at long last. Ever since Saturn entered this part of your chart in July 2005 you began two years of career challenges that would test you to your toes. That strenuous environment at the office has been ongoing to this day.
You were willing to work hard and give your all to your job because you knew that if you did well, you’d later be a force to be reckoned with in your industry, and you were right! Although you probably thought this phase would never end, it will this month – on September 2 – when Saturn leaves Leo! Saturn always gives reward for having worked hard, so you can expect acknowledgment very, very soon, and we will talk about that.
If you think back to your career experience since July 2005, you will likely see that you were being challenged to learn, stretch, experiment, and master all facets of a new, ever-changing job. Saturn is known to put us in brand new situations to see how well we cope, and chances are that you did beautifully. Nothing in your past quite prepared you for this new role, but that is what made it so exciting. It certainly provided plenty of room to grow.
It is likely that you received several promotions over the past two years, but along with them came a few maddening frustrations, too. With so much energy being focused on this part of your life, it’s not unusual to go through a whole spectrum of experiences and emotions. Your experience certainly was intense, but as a Scorpio, you tend to like things that way! One main problem, as you saw it, was that your progress was slow, especially considering how hard you were working. Saturn usually demands full and total devotion, and a great deal of patience, too.

So, very true….I’ve been working hard since July 2005, but I’ve had a good run. I wonder what comes up next. The rest of the write up was pretty interesting. I’ll be excited to see what September holds!

It was a rough week. Work has been tough this last couple of months and it finally came to a head on Friday. It wasn’t the answer that I wanted to hear, but it was probably the right answer. That being said, it’s given everyone a chance to take the weekend off, reflect, relax and re-group.

I’m taking the opportunity to SLEEP, to work on my multiple blogs, to work on some pictures, clean the house, do the laundry and figure out how to take my life back. The funny thing is I feel a little disconnected. I’ve been so into work for such a while now, that I’m a little lonely not talking to my work friends. Sad but true. I’m going to take this weekend to try to reconnect with people too.  I didn’t get home until 1:30am this morning, so today was pretty much a sleep day. Tomorrow I’ll get some stuff done (like grocery shopping, working out, laying in the pool and going to church).

I need a life. I need to figure out what a life would look like. Right now my Saturday night will be spending watching I love the 80’s and working on my blogs. I’m such a geek. Seriously, I need to reconnect with locality. I’d prefer to move, but if the market isn’t going to turn around anytime soon, then I need to figure out how to connect locally here with people. My goodness, things must have changed if I want to connect with PEOPLE. I hate people, what’s up with this?
