Things are going quite well. CT's been gorgeous, and only now is it starting to get cold. My step-dad outfitted my SUV with all-weather tires (since she's only known hot climates) and had it checked to make sure it was ready for the winter. My mom LOVES my cat, so she's been able to stay here with me without any problems. I think it's also...

Update:

I'm moving to CT this weekend, and it's a good move. My husband (soon to be ex) will probably be moving closer to some friends here in TX soon.

All my family is up inCT, and I finally feel like I'm myself again. 9 years is a long time to be married--a third of my life. And a long time to be away from...

Yesterday I posted a small rant about a link a friend posted on FB, which then spurned a Note, and finally into a full-blown blog entry.

This rant can also be found here: http://www.xomba.com/creationism_versus_evolution_rant or on my blog on blogspot. I link the Xomba one here since there are articles written by other people you might find interesting as well about this general topic.

So...

I agree....... Christian creationism is not about free thinking, it is not about considering any other belief then the one being espoused. Christian creationism is mostly Southern Baptist Convention type thinking, that women should not work or hold position of power in the church, that there is only one God, their God and not yours if you don't believe in the same skewed philosophy. Christian creationism is not about inclusion, but exclusion. Christian creationism is very similar to radical Islamist theory, their way or you die.

Life is interesting.

Still not sure what's going to come of all of this. I mean, I know where I will be.. I know I'll be fine.
But that's not what I'm worried about...

Fear is a powerful thing..

Prayers are still appreciated.

Thanks.

Well I hope things turn out the best for you!

Sounds like you could use some escaping yourself.

Hey kids.

Sorry, went anonymous for a little while there. I didn't actually delete anything.

I'm still in some life transitions so...yea. But I'm not gone for good, at least not right now.

Thanks to those that noticed me gone and checked into see how I was/am fairing. I am tempted to believe that everything is starting to stabilize, but we'll see. Of course, I'll...

Hey sweetie,
Sorry you're in a bad place, hope things get better/easier for you soon. Shoot me a line if you want to talk.

Oh, to answer your question, CFA means Chartered Financial Analyst, I'm not sure how to describe it. First time I heard of it, it was described to me as a kind of Bar Exam for people who work in Finance. Since it not required to practice finiance thats not a perfect metaphor, but you get the idea. The program takes a minimum of four years. You can take the Level 1 exam your senior year and the Level 2 as soon as you have a degree, but you can't take the Level 3 exam or apply for membership until you have worked for four years in a professional financial occupation.

And it ridiculously hard. Level 1 is not quite as hard as the CPA exam, Level 2 is a little harder than most Bar Exams, and Level 3 is just one of the hardest tests out there.

Is it sick I'm kinda looking forward to it?

Bye beautiful.
And this too shall pass.

Please be well frown

Hey everyone. Just got back from my 2 week visit to CT.

There's a lot going on with me right now, more than I'd anticipated, so I won't be on for a while most likely.

Hope all is well with you.

Namaste.
oldernow:
be well, and best wishes on the changes/challenges
lockeblade:
Good luck with it all. I hope some of what's going on is good at least.

Real quick: All moved in to our new place in Texas! We got everything accomplished a day early, which was rockstar.

We're recooping after the loading into the Penske, the 20 hr drive, and the mad-rush unloading that took place on the 4th. The hubby of course had to do the majority of moving (since I'm just not that strong) but I was able to...

Got a christina piercing and stretched my horizontal to an 8 gauge. Yaysmile Pics are in my Me'n Stuff album. We were going to have my nips stretched to an 8 but our piercer felt I should wait just a few more weeks, and she's the boss.

The interview seemed to go well from what my husband can tell. There isn't any question about his...

Busy working. Constant computer work (grant writing) at the nonprofit, which is now 3 1/2 times a week so I'm very anti-computers when I get home. Sorry for the absenses, but I do try to jump on occasionally. My eyes hate computer monitors after too many hours in a succession, so 8-9 hrs of it I can barely see the screen (or much of anything...
