You've heard of the proverbial "weekend warrior", right?? Well, I am the OFFICIAL "weekend word-ier". Having FINALLY landed a job after two years of (involuntary) unemployment has REALLY put a damper on my ability to post on a regular basis! [I know all my fans are concerned!!] LOL
Don't get me wrong....I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL to have a job!!! I'm also extremely thankful to God, that it is a job that I enjoy IMMENSELY, and one where I truly feel my employer repects me as a person, and treats me accordingly. Praise be to God, and ALL the Heavenly Hosts. This new job is without a doubt, "divine intervention" on my behalf. I FINALLY, once again, love what I do....and enjoy the people I work with. That being said.....I'll get back to the topic at hand.
I now arise at 5am, and most often don't get home till 6pm. Once supper is prepared & consumed....it's late. I seldom even have opportunity to read emails.....so if you've sent me one & wonder why I have not responded, please know that I will eventually get to it!! While at work...I see NO personal emails and my cell phone is off the entire day....so calling me WITHOUT LEAVING A MSG, will only frustrate YOU. I only return calls to those who leave messages. Otherwise....I figure YOU can just call back. Anyway......
My "creative juices" have been somewhat stymied, since going back to work. Believe it or not....I actually have to make myself notes, now, on future topics. Without the notes, I'll forget what I wanted to say, long before I get a chance to sit down to my keyboard & write! I really should be using "sticky notes"....but they haven't come up with "virtual" sticky notes for the MIND yet, and with the paper ones... where do I stick them?? Some of my thoughts come to me while in the shower. (sticky notes don't stick well when wet!) I tried posting them in the kitchen......but HE thought the one that said "chicken" was an abbreviated shopping list, and he came home with 4 breasts and a package of frozen chicken fajita meat! When he found the one that said "eggs".....he brought home a dozen, then questioned me as to WHY we were buying eggs when we had chickens??? So, posting these notes in the kitchen simply isn't working!
Other times....I think of something I want to blog about, but am not within reach of pen & paper. I have saved 'draft' msgs on my cell phone that I can refer to later. It's becoming quite a challenge to maintain my former, prolific, posts. "Free" weekends like this one....are so-o-o satisfying to the blogger inside of me!! I can type, post, print, ponder, perform, and whatever ELSE one can (or wants to) do in PRINT! It's a real "flow4all" when I can "think out loud" for an entire weekend, with the help of a keyboard!!
I hope my FOLLOWERS (fans?) will understand the delays....and better appreciate my posts... WHENEVER they occur. :-) Afterall....the pen really IS mightier than the sword!!
