Somewhere Over the Rainbow..... is the mall

So I had another day off today (shut up Eric) and realized it was a great day to go to the mall to look for a shirt/blouse/sweater to go with my "interview skirt". It's the last day of the horrific cold I had - no more dripping, I could hear again, etc.... so I definitely felt better and needed to get out of the house.

While I was shopping (didn't find what I was looking for), it seems it rained pretty hard - when I emerged from the underground parking, this is the first thing I saw:


And to make it even more interesting, as I turned the corner... it doubled as the clouds passed through it! I wish it were clearer, but I had to act quick... it was disappearing.



If I belived in such things.... I would think it was a sign... a very good sign. :-)

A Day In The Life - A Photo Essay of sorts

Last weekend was a glorious one in NYC - the weather was perfect and I'd like to share some of the photos I took last Saturday. I've lived in the City almost all of my life and am never at a loss for things that catch my eye. Given the fact that my camera comes everywhere with me..... I always manage to stop and take a shot or two... or three... or four - sometimes to the dismay of my companions :-) Walk - stop - walk - stop...

Journey begins.. waiting for the train to pass...

Two of the many doors...

Undeniably Unmotivated

It's been a long time since I've felt the motivation to write anything.... lots of stuff going on, but not really much to write home about, so to speak.

I've been wrestling with some decisions I've had to make and coming to grips with an issue that arose from the medical tests I had. All in all, my condition is up in the air.... no resoultion as of yet. Frustrating. The one thing did come out of it was a bit hard to handle at first, yet oddly ok once I thought about it. Nothing life threatening - but definitely altered my thinking of the future and what I thought could be one day....

One decision I did make over the past two weeks, is that I definitely have to move on from my current job. There comes a time when you realize that no matter how "comfortable" it is, there is no going forward and no challenges left. I am at this point now. So, armed with an updated resume... off I go on the job hunt.

Maybe There Is Something to Astrology....

Today's offering for Capricorns..... this one is waaaaaaay too on target.

Even if you're surrounded by adults all day long, at certain points of your day it might feel as though you have been plopped down in the middle of a daycare center. A few of your people will be acting like children and exhibiting petty behavior. You shouldn't even bother trying to understand why. You have far too many important, rewarding things to do to start wasting time on trying to help them figure out how to act like grownups. Avoid them.
