Pondering Graduation time

Image
Well it's graduation time. It's time for you to find a job. Or maybe prepare for more schooling. Either way it's going to be an up hill battle.( It's a very big hill. More like a mountain.) Unemployment is up, again.  And so is your debt. Hopes for a good future are very low. Depression is up. You really have to think about more schooling, is it really worth it in the long run? I never went on to collage, I only have a high school education. Not to say I wouldn't have liked to go to collage. But I'm still not sure what I want to be. So I dabble in this and I dabble in that.  I wonder if there are some of those jobs out there that people go to collage for that would be easier to get if instead of going to collage you could just be an apprentice to. You now learning what you need to know about the job and not having to take classes that have nothing to do with the subject at hand.  You start at the bottom and work your way up, without the massive debt you get f...

What a messy world we live in

 I decided to change the look of my blog. What do you think? Different. But I'll keep it for awhile, I think. Any who, it's Friday and I have the day off. It has become slow once again at work. I use to be able to tell you how we would be working at what time of year, but no more. The economy is such a mess I don't know if I'll ever be able to say how good work is for a very long time. It makes things so much more scarier. Never knowing if things are secure or not. Not knowing if where you are working will always be there. It's scary times we live in. Not only is the economy a mess but you have the wars going on that should not be happening the way they are happening. People losing their lives for what? I guess I'll never understand why some wars happen. Unfortunately some are very necessary. Like the first and second world wars. But others happen in way that should never have. We all know which ones we feel they are.     The oil disaster in the gulf. Thi...

Saturday Morning thoughts and A poem for Grandpa

Boy has this been a week or what. The shootings in Texas and the other one in Florida. Plus the guy where  they found at least 11 bodies. Does it seam like more and more bad things are happening lately or are some things just coming to light all at once? The sad part is these kind of things are going to happen more and more. Why? There is allot of people going through things that are a whole lot more stressful because of the economy.People who lived during the great depression will know how bad it can really get. But how bad will it get this time? People want to blame Obama. Some the democrats. I blame it on greed not going unchecked as usual and the greedy don't like it. It's a very stressful time for all and we all have different ways to deal with it. Unfortunately too many people are choosing the most violent ways to deal with it. So many people have lost their jobs. So many people have lived way beyond their means for so long and now that the economy has taken a crap, they...

Pondering Thoughts

It's been one of those weeks where allot of different things have popped into me head. Some dumb some not so dumb. Like the woman with too many kids. You know the one I'm talking about. I will not mention her name. I have decided that I must not think about her and her selfishness. She is the product of what happens when you raise a royal pain. Never taking no for an answer. My heart goes out to the kids because they will have a life that will be very hard. But what can anyone really do right now. Like Dr. Phil, it's time for everyone to just stand back and let things happen, nothing good will happen given the people involved. It is heartbreaking knowing that the kids will pay the price for the chooses the adults are making for them. Just remember the mess that happened with the ones up in Canada back in the 30's. That was because of a doctor at first, then the parents continued the mess afterward. One question, what is happening to the doctor that allowed this to happ...
