Other Disasters
All disasters, big or small, have an impact financially. If your car gets totaled because of a not-at-fault accident, you will not get what you think you should to replace it. Going from a car that is almost paid off to another loan of $20,000 is a big impact. The same amount might still come…

ARG!
You ever have the feeling that you just can’t take one more added stress? I am about to that point. Even the small things, while they don’t seem to bother me, I know cause unseen stress. I am so far behind on work around the house and at work, I’ll never catch up without spending…

Life Too Busy, Part 2
What the hell happened? I went online this morning and saw my last post was three days ago. I swear it was only two. What happened to one of those days? I must have been way more busy than I even realized! That sucks. If I am missing such a simple thing as a post…

A Blur
The last couple of days have been a blur. I was travelling for work, and I have only had two good nights of sleep in a month. Twelve hours of sleep in three days makes for some interesting days. It is a amazing how much cognitive abilities are lost when sleep is held back. Last…

In the Face of Adversity
Most people like to talk the talk. It is human nature to exaggerate a little. It makes us feel better about ourselves while helping promote our qualities to potential mates and negate the competition. It is only in the face of adversity do our true quality appear. Will we wither and die? Will we fall…

Ah! More Editing!
I do not like editing these books. I finally got done with the last bit on my end. There is one last grammar and edit check. Unfortunately, I do not know when that will be completed. I would rather have a perfect product a little later than expected than a rushed one out the door…

Perceptions and Conformity
I have never been one to conform to what people think I should be. If I believe in something, I will stand up for what I believe in. It does not mean I am always right. On the other hand, I will do things to go against what people perceive I should be. Just because…
