I need to get a new ISP. I am not thrilled with the one I have but the house I live in is so old (think 1950’s) that I am not sure if fiber cable has been laid in the area to support the provider I want to switch to. This is definitely […]

You know its bad when you are excited about getting to go to work on a Monday morning.
We got hit with a stomach virus […]

I put my resume on Monster a long long time ago. I reactivated it when redeployments were happening with my company. Lately, I have been getting so much spam mail with everything from owning my own real estate franchise to running a vending machine route. I was shocked at some of the […]

I talked to a dear friend today. She and her husband are in the process of selling their Wilmington NC real estate. He got pretty sick last year as being self employed, the medical bills are killing them. Say a prayer or 2 for them. They will come out ok but […]

My poor baby was throwing up all last night, this morning and into early afternoon. He couldn’t even keep water down. I feel for the little guy. He would get so scared when he threw up. You would think by now he would be getting used to it. If he loses much […]

One of the downsides to being the only female in our lab is that frequently I am asked where things are. Not major things but it gets sort of old pretty fast. When you are constantly asked where a certain piece of equipment is or where the box cutters are… well, […]

One of the guys at work is an intern and well, being a full time student most of the time and taking a semester off to work has left him pretty poor. We were talking and I guess his apartment is typical college guy type thing. You know the place, remnant furniture, pizzas […]

It was a good weekend overall. Alex’s out of town godmother came to visit and we had a nice time. I am worn out and so is he but it was fun. He is definitely a flirt!

Since Alex is getting so big, I have been all over the web looking at furniture stores for the perfect toddler bed. I want something inexpensive but nice but not too fancy and not too girly (obviously). I finally found one that fit all my criteria.
I got all kinds of unsolicited […]

When the weather starts turning into winter, it makes me start thinking about moving through corporate relocation. There are a lot of places that are way warmer than it is here. Ok, I know. I’m a wimp. There are a ton of places that are colder too. I managed to […]

Alex’s daycare provider is possibly moving in June which means I may be too. The commute is killing me and eats 2 hours a day up. She is looking to move to an area closer to my work so it could be good. There are some condos for sale in that area […]
