I like Betty Ann, aka MsHen because...


Betty Ann has been a friend of mine since the first of the year and quick became one of my biggest supporters. Betty Ann is a recovery blogger. Her blog is titled Diary of a Frugal Hen without a Rooster. She is a member of AlAnon and is very serious about her involvement in it.

Quite often I will get a word of encouragement from Betty Ann. Sometimes it will be in the form of a ((hug)) which comes at a needed time. We have become good friends in a short time.

As does most of the recovery bloggers, Betty Ann always includes a gratitude list in her posts. It always gives me a smile since she always is grateful for the most simple of things. When she gets through struggles, she will blog a gratitude about what she learned from that.

She is a single mom. She has a son still at home and she is very involved with him and very proud of his accomplishments. Betty Ann once sent me an email with photos of all his new exotic pets, some of which would freak my wife out.

Another thing I like about Betty Ann is how she will go to blogs I feature in some of my posts, comment, and start following them. She, like many others here, is a great encourager.

So if you've not been to visit Betty Ann, go to Diary of a Frugal Hen without a Rooster. If you leave a comment, don't be surprised if she pays you a return visit.

Betty Ann is wonderful! Her writing is an inspiration to me. I read her blog and think about the things I have to be thankful for in a whole new way.

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...

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...

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?
