GlennM's Journal, 31 December 2010

Doing well. Tonight I will be at work so no celebrating anything. When I was a nurse I often worked on holidays and we always had a potluck or something, but nothing where I work now. I make less now than I did twenty years ago, which is probably the main reason I have no girlfriend, besides not having a car. I plan to move to a warmer climate WHEN I am published, and an area that is more inexpensive too. Happy 2011 to everyone on FS! I will try to do a fast on Sunday... We're having very mild 50* weather here in W Massachusetts, it felt like spring today with little wind and lots of sunshine! Hopefully it will presage a mild winter ahead!
Vocabulary word for Friday: limpid - ADJECTIVE - (of a liquid or the eyes) > clear. (especially of writing or music) > clear and accessible or melodious. ------ Origin from Middle English.

It was not a good New Year's Eve, work... never mind so many people were doing close to nothing... and then I'm getting vulgar emails from some woman ? who I don't know and have not put my email out anywhere to get this garbage. I'm not happy about it, a friend got off of the Internet because of all the junk in it... I will write and just come on here and stay off the news and game sites. If I didn't need a computer to be a writer I wouldn't have one. On a good note, I plan to fast tomorrow... Vocabulary word when I get up from sleeping this afternoon...

How awful for you. Change who you do your email with. HAPPY NEW YEAR any way, Glenn...Bren

Thanks Bren - I didn't think of that. It sent me email that had a woman's name and something vulgar in the message - I did not open it as it would probably have a virus. I can't imagine what sick person(s) are sending this stuff. Very few people have my email. I will start a new email for business purposes and give it to no one and basically never check the old email anymore - it is not necessary to give it out...

Work wasn't that bad - I guess it has always been this way and some time off is needed by some of the workers who need a break now and then and don't take one because of financial needs...

You are right about some very sick people that get a kick out of messing with others.

BHA - I wouldn't have ever thought of doing a new email, and so I will - no one sends me anything important anyway. I get a needed email maybe once a month if that the rest of it is just junk, so I feel a lot better now having a solution, and as far as work is concerned I need to just do my job and ignore what is not my business any longer, I am not a supervisor like I was when I was a nurse...

Glenn I am so glad to have helped you in any way. I have always been a nurse want to be. But no money or time to do so when I was younger. I do how ever have a sister that is an RN, she is a good one. Very compassionate person. She is always telling me how rewarding it is.

BHA - I no longer practice my job, but when I was a nurse it was a good job and there was little burn out for me anyway. I enjoyed my work then, but am no longer licensed. A few years ago it cost $400 to renew my license and I didn't have the money, and no one would loan it to me, so it expired and I am not going to school to get it back. Now I wait to get published, and work part-time in a factory setting of sorts if you can call it that. Anyway, I have a better perspective now that no one will have my email except potential writing opportunity people... I am fortunate to be able to do the writing for now and will definitely move out of the area to a more inexpensive place. A coworker whose daughter I know moved to Texas and it is a lot cheaper there - the coworker's daughter got married and has a growing kid, but it is easier to make ends meet down there, or just about anywhere in the country except maybe some big cities...
