Spunky!

Lunchtime Musings of a Working Superwoman: #1 Im eating carbs for lunch.  Go ahead...judge me. #2 My feet grew.  I used to be a 7, now am a 7.5.  How does this happen. #3 I like watching people walk; people walk funny. #4 Communication is a two-way street.  Mind reading is not a superpower and crystal balls don't work. #5 People!  Spaces in front of fire hydrants are NOT parking spaces. #6 I've gone an entire day and havent listened to a Journey song #7 People don't belly laugh very much anymore #8  Three words to research: Tolerance, Compassion and Respect #9 My first day back in the gym is gonna suck big time #10 If my life could be summed up in a song, the title would be: Through It All, She Smiles. 😉

Don't Ask

Lunchtime observation of a working superwoman: When someone asks you "what's on your mind?", remember #1 that what's on your mind shouldn't always come out the mouth, #2 the potential for it being a trick question is a possibility #3 when in doubt, less is always more #4 consider the source and the need to know #5 answering a question with a question is always a good play #6 if alcohol is involved, refer to #1, #7 baffle them with lots of big words and bs, they'll never ask you again, #8 start a rumor about yourself, that'll be entertaining in the long run #9 be nice, be kind, be quiet #10 smile and wink...let them guess.

Just another Wednesday

 I telecommuted from home today; my telecommuting schedule is Wednesdays and Fridays.  I can handle that; I load up the front end of my week "in office" and prepare for my "home" days.   Most days are fairly easy as I have a list of things that I need to accomplish at home in order to make my in office days more smooth.

Today was just another Wednesday.   Except, it wasn't. 

Today was the first day this world did not have Eddie Van Halen in it.    How flippin sad that one of the worlds premiere guitarists left this realm.   We all know that Journey is my band of choice.  But let's get real here folks.....Eddie Van Halen?   He was  the ultimate Guitar Hero!!   Not to mention that every female in the 16-18 yr old range (in the late 70's, early 80's)  had a mad crush on the brunette, button nosed, dimpled rock legend!    (Men, don't even bother trying to understand that last statement!)

I never had the pleasure of going to a concert; let's face it, for anyone to come to ND is a phenomenal undertaking on their part.   That being said, I certainly indulged in listening to Van Halen's music on a regular basis.  

Back when I used to hang out with a local biker club (yes, I was a bit of a wild child!), this was one song that comes to memory.  You Really Got Me!    Some of there more main stream songs were good also.  To me, there was just no comparison between Van Halen with David Lee Roth or Van Halen with Sammy Hagar.   (Roth wins every time!)

So while today was just another Wednesday, today was the day that I had Van Halen blaring through the speakers - each song heard brought a favorite memory of a time passed. Each song bringing heartfelt condolences to his family, the music industry and the world for having lost another legend to cancer in 2020.

R.I.P Eddie Van Halen!

Another Musings

Sometimes I'm so witty I crack myself up! Lol.  My friends all tell me I need to preserve my Facebook Musings of a Working Superwoman and write a book.  So as these pop up in my Facebook memories, I'm copying and pasting here.  

On this one, obviously it was a Friday and my mind was NOT on work!  Lol

Lunchtime musings of a Working Superwoman on a Friday:1)as the week goes on, my filter disappears  2) my ability to plan every nanosecond of my weekend kicks in to high gear on Fridays 3) everyone is pretty agreeable to most anything because no one wants to deal with a crabby ass on Fridays 4) pretty much assured my stellar work ethics will be toast by 3pm 5) I wonder if I have enough wine on hand 6) and cheese...can't forget cheese.   Wine without cheese is just...wine. 7) can't believe I just said wine is "just wine" 8) to my trainers, no worries..I have three workouts scheduled.  9) I'm already making winter (comfort) food recipes 10) wouldnt it be funny if everyone responded to each other today with 10-4 good buddy?  (I'm laughing cuz someone somewhere is going Huh? to #10.
