Public School or Home School

August 22nd, 2008 · 17 Comments

Public School or Home School?  That was the big question for me for a long time. 
I’ve just discovered that some of my closest online friends didn’t realize I had children homeschooling and children in public school.  Some of you have asked about it, and I sometimes get questions about it IRL, so I’ll share a bit about how we ended […]

The Heat Wave Lets Up

August 9th, 2008 · No Comments

It seems we’ll have a cooler day today.  Only in the 80s.

The heat wave is letting up a bit.  I would love to be in the garden today. 
I hope you’re having pretty weather today.  Think of me today.  You know where I’ll be.  All day.

But you know where I’ll be on my breaks, too.  […]

Filling Up A Day

May 30th, 2008 · 5 Comments

Whew, the day’s over!  The work day and the playtime afterwards!  I know it’s hard to imagine, but it takes discipline to make oneself sit for 8 hours in a chair in one’s home and type.  I mean there are so many other things that I could be doing, but I can’t. 

At least I […]

Close of Day

May 26th, 2008 · No Comments

I’m glad for today, but also glad the day has come to a close and it’s time for some sleep.

People keep on getting sick.  It’s doesn’t matter if it’s a holiday or not.  There are plenty of admission history and physical notes to type, even on a holiday.  People also want to go home to […]

Type and Dream

May 16th, 2008 · 4 Comments

I have really enjoyed my job today.  I cannot explain it, but a part of me has been restored.  I’ll stop with that thought.  It takes knowing all the ins and outs of where I’ve been and what we’ve been through to understand.

The sunlight coming into my office window was just the right amount this morning.  Not too […]

Finally Home!

May 14th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Yes, I finally brought my work computer home yesterday!  Up until now I’ve been working on-site at the hospital, training, and waiting on the hospital IT staff to get it built.  Well, it’s done!  I brought it home yesterday.  Then today I spent some time cleaning up the office and setting everything up. The office has had […]

Not Quite Threadbare

May 6th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I left my training today — the second day of it — feeling quite worn.  The single question of how I might make it through the rest of the week was floating around in my mind.  I was able to acknowlege to myself that I wasn’t quite threadbare, but close.

It was absolutely wonderful to come home, […]

Office Window View

April 28th, 2008 · 4 Comments

I’m currently in love with my new office. 
I’m blissfully happy with the thoughts of transcribing in here three days of each week, and I’m trying to train my mind already with thoughts of staying in my chair and making perfect each medical document and just enjoying that sitting time as a thinking and meditation time. 
I […]

Office Progress

April 18th, 2008 · 3 Comments

I have been VERY busy the past several days.  I have wanted to get on here and post more, but it’s been all I could do to keep my house livable while so many projects are going on.  As my friend says, I am in a transition phase.  That’s so true.

Above is the color scheme […]

Good Grief!

April 14th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Here I sit, my work week over.  I am still feeling pretty shell shocked over coming back home to work soon.  If you don’t know what I’m talking about tune in to this post.  I mean, when something comes to you — something that you really wanted but didn’t expect, it can just be hard to absorb […]
