In response to "Burnout"

I think you are doing just the right thing. If we can't get out of a situation, we should at least make it more pleasant.

In response to "To post or not to post? Questions from a new generation."

Since I joined WdC 5 weeks ago, I don't look at FB and Twitter much. Nothing can beat WdC!

Sorry to say I "waste" some time on FB too. I enjoy catching up on others' doings but like "Lady Lyn" wdc is my true love.

In response to "To post or not to post? Questions from a new generation."

I post everyday and share things with my family and friends, probably not my most intellectual side either but I really feel that the publisher is going to have accept that there are many aspects of me or he'll discover how ornery this old lady can be.

Facebook could disappear and I would be okay but if WDC did I would definitely have a break down.

It's good to see you blogging again.

You could try going to parks or out for walks to increase your downtime without people that wouldn't bust your budget.

In response to "Loving Competition"

There are all different types of love indeed and the love between a mother and child is powerful.

Romeo and Juliet was required reading for me in school and because we were made to read it I stubbornly resisted connecting to it. I am not a fan of his writing.

We are lucky to have so many options available to fulfill our desire for love and different genre takes on it.

In response to "The 99%"

Eye-opening take on the 1%.

I just hope they can see it that way.

The gesture on his part says to me he valued you friendship. I am glad it turned out really nice for you both.

Family Business

Ended up reading the following after big cuz Shereece decided to use what I wrote when the fam asked her to represent the grandchildren. They never told us they only planned for one (then two, me and her) to go up there. I made sure all the grand-kids present plus Josh Stovall was up there. I wanted them up there, they wanted to be up there and I needed them at my back. It was tough at times but it was also joyful and overall came out great. Of course I ad-libbed and rereading this now I see quite a few imperfections but that's just my writers mind:

Yes, I am mourning the loss of Emma Nancy (Age 85 blessed years).
Yes, I am in pain right now.
BUT JOY cometh EVERY morning and my cup runneth over!
When I mourned my father I cried for myself and all the moments lost. In this instance, I cry for my family.
I see our family as a Fortune 500 company and we all just lost a Co-CEO/CFO/COO but the Emma Nancy branch of this great family tree/mega corporation also lost our department head.
I need to step-up.
WE need to step-up.
We ALL need to communicate better if we truly desire for our company to be prosperous. Don't you hate it when your money is funny?
This family business deals in Emotional, Mental and Spiritual currency every time we open our mouths.
We LOSE said currency whenever we: 1. communicate ineffectively, 2. refuse to acknowledge our own shortcomings and limitations, 3. whenever someone says "That's not my job.", 4. somebody quits (because you cannot be fired from this establishment, ever).
New positions are opening up. It's my prayer that we all heed the call.
I look forward to my new and/or improved position. Just give me a 90 day probation to learn the ropes tongue emoticon
I love you all and would like to send a mega-thank you to all family members who do their job and still manage to cover the duties of other co-members.
We have to communicate more openly and effectively to prepare for battles such as these. Only a fool attempts to fight a physical war without any preparation or armor. What makes us think Spiritual warfare is any different?
My Granny is at peace and so am I. Don't worry Granny, we got this!
