I get knocked down, but I get up again
As many of you may know, I was laid off from VerizonBusiness, formally MCI Telecommunications on 5/2/2008. I was treated very well severeance wise and time to look for a new job. Unfortunately, I didn’t find a job till late August, 2008, but Global Crossing screwed around and took another 2 month’s to finally bring [...]

Faith is being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not see. Hebrews 11:1. It’s amazing what Faith can do for you and how we don’t even know how much it goes on in our daily lives. As many of you know, I was laid off on 5/2/2008 and have [...]

I got this news article today titled, “Baby boomers may face a silent killer” and watched the video. This is a great message again to the general public to get an “ultrasound” test done.
Not only should you check for an AAA, you also should request an “echo cardiogram” or a “stress echo” as it’s another [...]
The “Big Day” is tomorrow

It’s a bit of sad day around the house as I had to take our cat of 17 years into the vet today. The vet said that her “skin cancer” was too far gone and the humane thing to do was put her to sleep. She was a great cat and the entire family will [...]

24. July 2008
I am feeling the stress of the job situation, surgery tomorrow and just the fact that we’ve not taken a summer vacation. I am feeling guilty that I have let the family down and especially not being able to take a vacation due to my lack of work.
The strange thing is that between the job [...]
Some Tennis , Fear, and an interview in afternoon
24. July 2008
I played my usual Thursday am singles with Dr. George this morning. I lost the first set 7-5 and it was 4-4 in the 2nd when we ran out of the court time. It’s amazing how your mind can wonder all over the place while in the middle of a competitive singles match. I noticed [...]

I have this book , Getting Unstuck: How Dead Ends Become New Paths, by Timothy Butler. In this book, it talks about the “inner critic” or it even goes as far as calling it Satan.
In particular, the inner critic becomes louder and more powerful during this second phase. The inner critic is that internal naysayer [...]
