I like Chelle because....

Early February, my family was going through it's latest crisis. Liquid put a prayer request for me and my family on her site. One of the bloggers who saw this and came over here to give her support was Chelle. So, being the good guy blogger I am, I went to her blog, Life is What You Make it, to check her out.

I found we have some things in common. She's a behavorial health worker and I'm a behavorial health recipient. We both also think the world of Liquid. Chelle is a cousin of Liquid's soon to be ex-husband, but even after the legal relationship ends the two intend to be closer than sisters.

Soon after we got on each other's blog rolls, Chelle responded to a challenge to go through the alphabet, a letter a day. She was also supposed to post a picture for it. So when she got to "C" she originally posted about "creativity." I left a comment that she hadn't posted a picture and gave her a suggestion on a "c" post with a picture . She then wrote another paragraph about me, complete with my picture.

Chelle was also there for me when my brother passed away last month. She was one of the people who wrote a post in his memory. And she left a message in the online guest book.

Chelle is currently on the injured list after participating in the dangerous sport of gardening.

Chelle also has a poetry blog, Thoughts From My World. Check it out, as she is very creative.

Chelle is my favorite cousin in the whole wide, wide, crazy world.

There are not enough nice kind sweet words in the English language to describe her and her love for others.

But WIXY, you did her a super justice!

Post 800: Time to chat

Hi Guys, It's hard to believe that this is post number 800 for this blog. I started this blog out of my desire to communicate. Since radio and television is becoming more and more automated and less and less personal, I'm glad I made the decision to go in this direction as it has given me many blessings. When I first decided to write my musings, a friend from the radio and television boards who goes by the name of newsnomore, told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get any readers. The fact that I did in the early going made me surprised and grateful that anyone was enjoying what I wrote. I've had people tell me that maybe it wasn't meant for me to ever be in radio, that maybe my calling was blogging. Nowadays I think blogging makes for better two way conversation than terrestrial radio, especially the way I do it, non confrontational. The closest I come from any confrontation is the innocent digs that Pat and I shoot at each other. On an average day I get betwee...

From a "Battleground State"

I am going to make this one short and sweet. I live in Ohio, in this election season, one of the so called "Battleground states," a state crucial for any candidate presidential hopes. Of course we have had many visits from presidential and vice presidential candidates. Other blogs have dissected both campaigns so I will not. The only questions I have is will the promises made by either of these candidates exclusive to these states be fulfilled, or will they prove only to be hot air?

My job

I have worked at my company for, unofficially, 17 years. When I first started working there in June, 1992, the average work week was 55-57 hours. Sometimes you worked more than that. I was 36 years old at the time and I could handle the long hours and short nights of sleep. 17 years and three knee surgeries later, I need less hours work and more hours sleep. Even moving into a quasi desk job, I still find it difficult to crawl out of bed at 3am. I could get up later if I wanted to put up with both rush hours. But this morning, things will change slightly. I received a call from my department manager yesterday. I was notified that I had to cut my time down to 40 hours. This would be down from 44-45 that I normally work. No surprise there as all the other departments got notified before I was. And I had to split my time between plants, doing calibrations at the other shop 1-1/2 days a week. I'm actually looking forward to the change. I also like the prospect of getting an hour extra...
