Fish oil

While fish oil comes highly recommended from my pediatrician, I do not think that it's very beneficial if you can't keep it down!
I hate fish, and fishy-ness. I haven't eaten fish since I lived on City Island 15 years ago. Why the hell would I get a liquid fish oil supplement? I don't know. It's nasty.
The kids, they eat sushi, what do they care? They like it.
Please don't make the same mistake that I did and think that the flavoring would "cover" the fishy-ness, because It wont!
I'm off to Massachusetts! I hear "Dakota" calling me.......

Beacon 2009

In writing for the Beacon 2009, I am requesting information from you, my readers. If you know of reputable sources that I can include in this I would be sincerely grateful. I am writing on the impact of being hard of hearing/ disabled, has in the workplace. Information I need would be company's that hire people with disabilities, knowing that they have those disabilities. Other company's that may have had issues with hiring in the disabled area of the work force. In other words, if they got into trouble because they wouldn't hire someone with a disability. Any information will need to be cited, so please include where you got the information so that I can track down the citation. Much appreciated folks! Looking forward to hearing from you!

New Year Post.

I want to start off the new year on a good note. So here it is, my first post of the new year. Life is unfolding quickly for me. I am very thankful for the opportunities that have presented themselves. Like school for instance. I never envisioned myself going back to school, ever. It took someone who didn't even know me from any other Jane Doe, to make me realize, you're not done till you're done. Life is a school. We all learn from our experiences.
I learned that Elephant Ears, come back from the dead. I don't necessarily have a black thumb for house plants.... I can vacuum the entire downstairs in less than an hour... Oh, the possibilities! Great things lie in wait...

A New Year.

2008 has been a seriously eventful year! I've taken on a previous employer through the EEOC, started college after 17 years, and have grown so much inside. I am thankful for 2008. I look forward to all the challenges that 2009 has to offer, I will rise up to those challenges and face them head on. Classes start again on Monday for me and I'm looking forward to it. I may not write as much for the next couple of weeks because classes will be every day. But when I do write, I will have stuff to say...
I wish you a very happy new year!

Incredible sunset.

On our way home this evening from Brewster, I noticed the sun peeking through the clouds. It had been a rather warm day at 62 degrees and cloudy. The trip was uneventful other than arriving and leaving. For this I am thankful. Driving up the street to our house the change in the skyline was so dramatic and beautiful I had to capture it in sequence. For your viewing pleasure, I introduce the sunset.
