Twelve Years At Blood Assurance – April 14, 2026

Twelve years ago today I began my work at Blood Assurance as a Telerecruiter. As I celebrate this work anniversary I think about the experiences and adventures I have had there. It hasn’t been easy, but my work there makes a difference.

My first desk on my first day at Blood Assurance.

Thanks to everyone along the way who have made this possible. Here’s to many more years down the road.

This Blog and The Stuff I Post

The world is in such turmoil right now. Political upheaval, wars and rumors of wars, money woes and so much more. I believe in being up on things going on and sharing it with you. My heart and soul feels everything and I want to share what is going on in my head. I know this is my blog and I have the right to post whatever I want.

However, I need to figure out some balance between the bad and the good. The Artemis II voyage to the moon was something awesome and positive. However, the unnecessary war with Iran is a longer-term reality. Life is like that these days. Everything is going on all at once so it seems.

I don’t want you my blogging audience to think I am always negative, no one wants that. So I might start posting weird stuff that makes my weird heart happy. Some of it won’t make sense, but hopefully it will let you know that this blog is still about where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life.

I hope that makes sense. What do you think? Feedback welcome.

Hello Friends, It’s Been A While

Friends, it’s been a few days since my last post. In that time I have celebrated my 27th wedding anniversary among just living the life. So, one could say no news can be good news.

I hope you all are doing well. Thanks for tuning in.

A Commentary on The Current Events of April 7th

When you threaten a country by violence or economic coercion to get what you want that is not leadership that is a moral failing based upon greed and sometimes hatred. I can say that right now that Donald Trump is a failure in every measurable way and is a danger to this nation and others. Conservatism needs a reset from the current course it has been on for much of the last ten years. Does it have the courage to remove the cancer that is Trump/MAGA? Our military should know that attacking a country based on sketchy intelligence is wrong. Voting has consequences and right now we are all feeling it. Something needs to change sooner rather than later. I don’t think those who can make it happen will be able to do so. This Iran situation is an example of incompetence all across the board.

Hello April, No Fooling!

A new month begins today. April 1st is also April Fools’ Day. With all the stuff going on around us, the day seems to be very appropriate. Enjoy the fun of the day. As the song says, “Everybody plays the fool sometimes” which is very true. Let’s hope for a good month ahead, good people.
