Sapphire Springs: Career Development
http://sapphiresprings.blogspot.com/2010/05/career-development.html
To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Saturday, May 15, 2010. It's been a while since I've written about work, and an update is overdue. Mind you, nothing has changed much except my outlook. But, having finally adjusted my expectations, I'm able to enjoy the humor a bit more than I did before. Put on the floor. As I was learning the newest new process, she stopped by and informed me that her new way of doing things was going to save me so much time that she was g...

Sapphire Springs: What You Wish For
http://sapphiresprings.blogspot.com/2010/06/what-you-wish-for.html
To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Monday, June 14, 2010. What You Wish For. It appears that- for the time being, at least- I'm through writing blog entries about how much I hate my job. That's the good news. The bad news is I'm back to writing endless posts about the angst of job searching. Furlough days made big cuts in our staffing on a daily basis, and the boss was managing it all terribly, as usual. To do my job. I thought that was poor timing and pre...

Sapphire Springs: April 2011
http://sapphiresprings.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Sunday, April 17, 2011. I'm having a very lazy weekend- home alone with nothing to do except some much-needed cleaning. So naturally, I'm suddenly very interested in blogging. My supervisor's words were "I am facing a lot of complex staffing issues, so I can't make any promises, but I am definitely keeping you in mind." Not very encouraging, but I'm holding out hope. I must also say that I absolutely hate moving! I am still s...

To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Sunday, February 6, 2011. Yeah, I know- it's been forever since I blogged. Don't think I haven't missed it. But when things are going well, it seems that urge to write has a lot less fire behind it. Getting hired on permanently couldn't have come at a better time, because I got paid for all the days off we had over the holidays. And when life happens, I have paid time off immediately available to me. It's so weird! On her but...

To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Monday, July 12, 2010. My, how the last month has flown by! I got in lots of great time with my nephews, planted an herb garden, spent some long weekends with Ryan, and got a sunburn that won't quit.and then I started a new job, just three weeks after my previous employer kicked me out of the loony bin. Then I remember where I am. In other exciting news, last weekend I finally attended a volunteer orientation at the SPCA here...

To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Tuesday, March 9, 2010. It's Something, At Least. I'm feeling especially disgruntled this week. I have that feeling, more than usual, that I should be doing something different.making some sort of change.anything to get out of the rut I'm in. I've had that feeling so long I don't remember what it's like to feel any other way. I've been looking for another job, usually somewhat passively. It seems the recession is just now...

To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Sunday, March 3, 2013. Here I Am, Right Where I Left Myself. It is simply unacceptable that I've let myself go so long without writing- nearly two years! My typing skills have been deteriorating before my eyes, so some practice is long overdue. And anyway, I could use the therapy. As I'm writing this, I find myself in a situation similar to when I last wrote: the still somewhat raw phase of grieving the loss of a dear friend.

To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.". Wednesday, February 3, 2010. Complacent and Not Hating It. What a bad blogger I am! I guess you could say my recent hiatus has been due to nothing but more (and more) of the same- more hating the same job, more loving the same terrific guy, more wallowing in cat fur, and lots of "Lost" marathons in preparation for the final season. Don't get me wrong.she's still bat shit crazy and I hate her with all I have in me. I feel like...
