I like Michelle, of Crows Feet fame, because...

Michelle is one of my European friends. She currently resides in Scotland. She is a very frequent visitor here and always leaves very kind comments.

We met each other through Amel's Realm. Shortly after Michelle starting posting on my blogs, we were sort of IMing through the comment section here. A result of those messages that morning was she and Amias became friends. Michelle has been a real encouragement to my efforts here, especially when it comes to re posting one of my earlier works.

Michelle lets us know how life is for one who currently lives away from her homeland, Zimbabwe. Her blog, Crows Feet, is a mix of her experiences, issues of interest, and creative writing. She also has a poetry blog, called Reflections. She likes to share her talents with the world and is very good at her craft.

Michelle is also very considerate of her readers. Last month she was moving to another home and was off the Internet for a few weeks. She sent many of us an email to let us know she wasn't going to be in touch for awhile.

I suggest you give Michelle's blogs a read. You won't be disappointed.

Cliff Note to Michelle: I haven't forgotten about your meme. Hopefully it will be written in the next few days.

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...
