Train station

I got done with work as I posted with my text message. I am standing
at one of the train stations where I have an intenet connection an
figures I could do another quick post.

Today went well enough although my job is not the easiest to do when
you are completely alone because the nature of it is reading and
typing and the reading gets hard when I am doing it straight for even
just a couple hours.

People have problems. There is this guy swearing out loud to no one
in particular. It is sad how bad peoples language is sometimes. Silly
and immature if you ask me.

Saturday makes for a rough work day. Since no one is around it is quiet and frustrations seem to be worse. Survived though

Got going and didn't stop

Twice today I kept going after I hit a stopping point. The previous
post was the second ocurrence, the first was catching my bus. I
hesitated and almost changed my travel strategy losing time enough
that route 1 failed and 2 along with it. So I had started on foot and
kept going arriving eventually at another train station quite a
distance and a good 40 minutes or so later.

It was good exercise and an enjoyable walk. There are some beautiful
houses coming down off the hill from the university large pieces of
land also that make for some cool landscaping as well.

I enjoyed the walk and I might do it again sometime when I am wearing
some decent walking shoes. (ouch)

Copy and Paste

I really need copy and paste to do justice to this post, but I will
give the general idea anyway. Can "sanctions" imposed against a
country affect the government, yet not the citizens? That sounds
absolutely ridiculous to me, but AP attributed the idea to or Defense
Secretary.

This was regarding North Korea, can we really think that in doing
something to "the communist government" that it wouldn't be reflected
in the lives of the the citizens?

I think a good comparison might be if someone were to punish head of
households by reducing his ability to earn money. Does this affect his
family? You bet it does, they have to compensate or endure.

Similarly we could look at a business example let's say manufacturing.
If trade with the company is blocked to some degree then production
would most likely have to be reduced and this hurts the workers who
might be laid off.

Other thoughts on government.

Government consists of the people, it is the people, if they refuse
the current establishment they "can" (to varying degrees) change it.

Our government was established on the principle that government exists
by the consent of the governed check the Declaration of Independance.
The declaration was made by "the Authority of the good People" do we
realize that we have authority? We do have authority as long as we
remember and are willing to exercise it, but if we forget then our
authority begins to erode as we yield our rights to the governing
until our ability to change things may be nearly gone, or at least
seemingly so.

Blogging for the sake of blogging

Today I am writing simply because. I am hoping to finish my work week
today I just have to put in an extra 1 1/2 hours over my now customary
10. Then I get a day before returning on Saturday to put in some
hours. At least that is the current plan it might change by the end of
the day.

I showed our condo last night to some potential renters. I hope they
get back to me sooner rather than later whether they want it or not.
Then at least I don't have the nagging wonder of whether I still need
to find someone else.

Not much to say today I guess just going to try and get though work.

Over Excited

So with the prospects of actually being able to move looking on the
horizon I am getting excited and even a little anxious about what I
might be able to accomplish. For example I have a few jobs that I have
applied to that would be really nice jobs to get. I actualy had
another call on our condo tonight after I fixed my classified listing.
(moutain!=mountain, ask wikipedia what != means)

So just maybe we will be able to move one of these days. One thing I
am looking forward to when I can Get settled is doing some writing. I
don't mean blog writing however, but program writing I have been
talking with a friend about some ideas for projects and I hope to make
some of them a reality when I am a little more free to explore those
options.

It will be good to be creating some programs again and maybe be
delving deeper into that skill. There is always the hope that it could
prove to be a source of revenue as well to help support the family.

I've got a slow start on my bus ride today, so hopefully it speeds up
some.

Arctic Tundra

Well I had a very long weekend and I am now making my way to work. I
left last Wednesday and went to Cedar until yesterday. The apartment
Jabe got for us is actually quite nice and our ward seemed very
welcoming so that was good too.

I got some work done at adult ed and contacted some people about jobs
I am looking into. All in all it was a pretty good trip although I am
a bit worn out from the driving.

Friday we had Kya's grduation and that was quite enjoyable. I think
she was surprised to see me there and I was glad I could make it. When
I was looking through the program before it started I noticed that
James had a brother graduating. I had been texting organizing a Nerd
party so I disclosed this info to the Nerd formerly known as dictator
and was given a mission to find James and "ambush" him.

Where's Waldo is a lot harder when he is not wearing the
characteristic red and white stripes. My mom deserves the credit for
finally spying him and I ran over to talk to him after it was all done
and invited him to a picnic I had been organizing for Saturday.

The next day we had a fun time at the picnic although for a good
portion of it I was watching and chasing Gwen, not the easiest way to
participate, not at all, but it seems like people had fun and that was
good. My title today comes from a conversation at the picnic, if you
wan more info ask Nate.

Moving

Well I came down to Cedar thisweekend for a variety of reasons. The
first plan a couple of weeks ago was to come for my niece's high
school graduation. I worked some things out, that let me come down
early and get some other things done.

I contacted some people about job openings so I can be really getting
moved while Jane is down here I am doing my work thing up north still
for now. I brought down some things to get us moved in a bit more and
our little apartment is really nice if a bit old.

Today we are going to go hang out with my friend and their families at
the park weather permitting (as I look out on the overcast sky). I
saw friend of mine at graduation that we had lost contact with for
awhile. So that was neat.

All in all I think as difficult as this is going to be to make the
move that it will be a lot of fun to b closer to family. We had a fun
barbeque after graduation yesterday. Gwen was loving the dogs my two
sisters have even when one of them was chasing her and once outright
tackled her.

I am excited for the prospects of moving back to Cedar and hope to get
situated in some extra-dayjobular endeavours. (yes I made up a word,
but the I think the form is acceptable). Now I just need a focus, a
direction to be going with those efforts.

Well for now I guess that will be it and I will get back to writing
later. Happy Saturday everyone.

Anxiety

So I was well on my way to work when I realized I forgot my bus pass
and id badge. Needless to say I am going to be getting off work later
than I expected and getting to cedar later than I had hoped.

That started me on other anxious thoughts and it might be a rough
morning getting over this stuff and the other things that fall out of
the woodwork with them.

It is a beautiful morning today fresh air and a little wet. I've been
thinking more this morning about needing to find a renter for our
condo. That would shore up things significantly. Life sure gets
complicated quickly when you decide to make big decisions and just go
for it.

It is doable though for all of the difficulty we are going to make it
work.

Posting

So the other day I worked and worked, but all to a good cause because
I am planning to leave from up here on Wednesday and with all the
hours I am getting in I won't have to use any vacation time. I get a
"free" five day weekend.

My last post was a text message from my phone, that is if it posted,
and if anyone was wondering about it. So by now everyone that reads my
blog probably knows about us moving back to Cedar. It has been an
interesting month or so that has been passing quickly as we made the
decision and went for it.

The next step is for me to find a job in Cedar and actually move. We
will see how that goes.

Long day can't wait to get home and have nap time. 12.5 hours off my 40 for the week. Long weekend next week.

Block

I wanted to write but I don't really know what about. It was a pretty
good day, I hope I can keep having some more good days. Things have
been, and will likely continue to be, rocky lately, but I guess I have
a bit more hope right now. I think I have just a sparkle of confidence
that maybe I can make something of my life as well.

Hagoni everyone

Monday

I am off to work again la de dah. I had a pleasant surprise when I got
on the bus to see one of my previos drivers. They have changes
occasionally of which route they drive and I also have change some
routes I use so it was nice to say good morning to a familiar face.

It looks like we might figure something out with moving down to Cedar
and hopefully I can be finding a job down there. I am not looking
forward to the job searching life again, but I guess it had to come
sometime.

Speaking of work, my job has Bren going relatively smooth the las
while since I get to work and not much has been changing around. Well
I am hoping for a nice enough week. Good luck.

Alive I think

Had a couple of sick days and I am glad to be working again I am not
fond of staying home and feeling like I am doing nothing. Haven't
been keeping up on my blog much lately and don't even know what to say.

Jane wants to move back to cedar so I guess that is the biggest thing
on the horizon for our family. We have to figure something for work
down there or how to work here and Jane live down there. It becomes
overwhelming very quickly although I think it is something we can do
and it would be good to have Gwen so close to her cousins. I think the
atmosphere will be better for both Jane and Gwen as well.

I have to wonder frequently what the future holds for me and I guess I
need to wait and see. We are going to try and rent our condo to make
the transition a little smoother. We will see, that is pretty much
where I have to stand.
