It has been quite some time and a happy, New Year to all.
The usual excuses will arise for being incognito for a nice chunk of time. The main one of having no time remains true. It's been a very chaotic couple of months with school schedules, work insanity and other factors keeping me from expressing myself. I will vehemently state that this hiatus has been very difficult for me. I need to write and get my thoughts out. When I do not have that vehicle to express my frustrations or pondering, it takes a toll on me emotionally and mentally. One friend mentioned that things that probably would not bother me normally seem to be getting to me lately. The fact that it's been raised by this person a number of times doesn't go unnoticed, trust me.
I decided to take a bit of control in diminishing my anger by staying home today. It's quiet and there are fewer interruptions so it's an easy fix to maintain my sanity when the office environment is less than ideal.
When I thought I could make lots of work progress, I was thrown the monkey wrench of having internet outages. As I worked on a task, midway through the internet connect would drop and I would have to wait until it came back up. This happened all morning long. I called the internet provider company and they said it was an issue in the area. (Uh, yes, it is an issue in the area. Hello? That's why I am calling. Can you tell me when it will end?) Instead of flipping a gasket, I decided I'd work on a blog entry! YAY!
It's easier to get back your concentration when you are working on something you really want to do than on something where you are still scratching your head. Lo and behold, here I am. Venting and being creative in my one special place. :)
Let's hope that the interruptions in signal will cease and that I can make some headway. If not, I'll have accomplished a long forgotten task of posting a blog entry.
