Goal Post: There Are Bad Weeks, Terrible Weeks, & Then This *$&#-Ing Week

I’m broken.  Just battered to the point of thinking my existence is entirely about pain and suffering.  Events of this week have made it that the foreseeable future will be almost constant agony.  I have no refuge or place to … Continue reading

Goal Post: Halfway to Holiday Break

The title says it all . . . Well, it doesn’t, but that’s the key point. The goals for last week were all over the place in terms of success.  I finished the online course and wrapped the presents.  Didn’t … Continue reading

Goal Post: Not The Week I Expected

Not sure why I expected this week to be smooth sailing.  It was a crazy double-header of 1) the first full week of the second quarter of school and 2) the last full week before Thanksgiving.  This meant my time … Continue reading
