Visualize Personal Peas…I mean Peace

Posted by: branwynne77 on: March 14, 2008

I wonder how one lets peace into one’s life. Maybe I should grab peace by the ear and drag it into my life kicking and screaming!—Randi
I desire peace and tranquility. I think. I’m just worried that a peaceful, non-dramatic life will lead to ennui and intellectual malaise. Part of me craves a non hostile “debate” [...]

All Over The Place…

Posted by: branwynne77 on: March 13, 2008

Sorry that the quiz below didn’t turn out right. I don’t know what I did wrong…Hmmm.Things are topsy turvy in the political world. Obama leads the delegate count. (Yay!) Eliot Spitzer got caught with his pants down (ha ha), and Mrs. Clinton, I think, is very scared that Obama may win at this point.
Yeah, I [...]

Recession Depression

Posted by: branwynne77 on: February 28, 2008

I don’t know why, but I’m worried about the coming (and it IS coming)recession. OK, so I know why, I’m afraid if I get laid off, I’ll never be able to pull myself onto my feet again. Recession is a scary word, and not all that far off from DE-pression.Gas prices are soaring, mortgage rates [...]

Ways to Reduce (MY) Stress

Posted by: branwynne77 on: December 22, 2007

Be financially responsible–cut spending for frivolous items.
STICK TO A BUDGET!
Save money for a rainy day–start socking the money away in some hard to get to savings account.
Pay off more than what is owed on credit cards.

This month has been hard and long and extremely tiring for me. (Glad it is almost over!!!) One thing has [...]

Work is keeping me busy, busy. Too busy to think. Gotta put in 13 hours of OT this week….before Sunday so posting might be spotty until then. Sorry!
But Christmas, this year, will be a simple affair with simply watching TV and drinking hot cocoa. No presents. No Christmas tree. No surrounding myself with people that [...]

Woot. We got evicted, got the boot, ran out into the cold dark. Whatever you want to call it, we got it. Oh boy. Oh joy. I am so enthused I can barely contain that aforementioned joy,
We’ve got a place to go. It ain’t the Ritz, but it will let us keep our cats and [...]

This is our country

Posted by: branwynne77 on: November 28, 2007

One of the phrases that springs to my mind when it comes to politics (or organized religion for that matter) is: “Do not pay any attention to the man behind the curtain.” I call that kind of line a distraction statement. Sometimes, it’s futile (as it was in the Wizard of Oz) but they have [...]

I Found My Mojo

Posted by: branwynne77 on: November 27, 2007

Apparently, my “muse” doesn’t like calm music–all my creativity and opinions seem to melt away when I listen to regular, mainstream
rock/pop/bluegrass for too long.
What do I listen to when I need to fire myself for a writing session? (Or to steel myself to walk in the cold weather on my way to the bus)  Korn, [...]

I think people should use mass transit whenever possible.  I hope I don’t come off as too preachy, but I just want to share some insights that I’ve made. Yeah, sure, there’s the issue of gas prices that seem to just keep on going up, without any sort of price cap set in place by [...]
