I always struggle when people talk about meditating.. I cannot sit still and find peace.. But give me a bag of merino (or shetland, or silk...) in a pretty color, and a weight on a stick, and my heart finds its peace.

HUS!!! <3

I've had a couple Trumpers follow me in the last few days, and I'm sorry, but the fuzzy bunnies and flowers aren't for you. Scram.

Stealing this.

The HR & Benefits community in Ireland the last few weeks:

"Okay, are you guys as sick of seeing this woman's name as I am? Can one of you please hire her so she'll go the hell away?"

"But if we hire her, she's NOT going away."

"Feckin' Americans."

I just want to bring everyone with me. *HUGS* Keep us all safe and in a functional nation.

But I'm over-reacting.. *snort*

Knowing what is going to happen, doesn't change the fact that it stings like a mother-fucker when it happens. Ahh well, means I can hold out hope for a job on the west coast instead of Dublin, and way better pay...

Let me tell you, it's surprisingly hard to NOT log into Facebook, I get that notification on my phone, and it's just HABIT... But I think it's been kind of good for me to NOT do it..

Maybe weird, but yeah, that sums it up..

(though I think I like jellyfish more than she does, I think they're beautiful, even if I hate getting stung by them).

Being nice *and* catty. I approve. :D hehehe

Well another working day is over in Ireland, the dream job still hasn't sent me a bounce notice (assuming no news is good news) and actually didn't get ANY HR job bounces today, which is the first in like a week... So that's good for my ego.. lol

Just got home from my first steroid shot for my spine. Was a VERY weird experience. But hopefully it will make a difference in my functionality. The best part though is that the doctor mentioned *specifically* which muscles he thought I should focus on, and so I can direct my Yoga/PT to that.

Wish I could, hubby is very allergic, so we can't have one.. But they are amazing for stress.. Only second to pit bull snuggles.. lol

Nothing like taking a break from Facebook to remind you that you were going to start moving your big talk over here anyway... Lol

Tiny bit of sunshine and summer is appreciated today...

First resume out, for a job that sounds a LOT like the one I currently have. Excuse me while I go have a heart attack. lol

Colleagues are finding out about the move.. the number of "I wish I coulds" is... interesting..

I suspect more of them COULD if they wanted to..

oooooh... I could totally do that.. BWAHAHAHAHA

I do not need to start collecting hats as an excuse to own (and wear) hat pins..

My natural love of shopping, obscure fashion and deadly weapons combines BADLY when I'm actively trying to minimize my stuff.

isn't that more Rochester?? I mean, he's missing H&M, but... that's OBVIOUSLY Bob. :D

I blame WendyG for this.. I have no idea if there is supposed to be a meaning to this, so most meaningful!

It's Friday. I want to be working on my resume and getting it ready to start looking for a job.. instead I have to do the job I'm actually getting paid for.. It's simply *not* fair, I mean, sheesh. /s

It's weird... I'm terrified of the move. I'm terrified of what it represents... I'm terrified of not retiring from my employer, and not getting my Laurel from what has become my kingdom... But I am SO EXCITED.

Let me clarify, no one can find you unless you want them to, and it is encrypted on both ends.. if you are truly scared of the coming government it's a good way to communicate with protection.

Can't speak for anyone else, but I'm over there.

Last meeting is over, out of work in less than an hour... Then tomorrow is last minute packing and prepping - then Saturday? I LEAVE FOR WAR!!!!!

This is the most diabolic sentence in the history of the written word.
