It's the right time of the year for gettin' philosophical

[In case you hadn't noticed, most of my titles are plays on lyrics to songs from decades ago.]

It is pretty sad that the only time I write anything here these days is when I feel overwhelmed.  To be honest, my only problem is that I have a bunch of half-finished projects preying on my mind, and a bit of post-holiday mess in my house. Plus we have gone mostly vegetarian, but I worry about our nutritional intake, so that is on my mind. And I would like to plant a garden this year, and planning for that is on my mind. There's only so much mind to go around!

Interestingly, work is not on my mind. I don't think I even mentioned work before meeting up with some friends at their New Year's party, and I've only dreamt about it once or twice since Xmas Eve. I am so happy to finally be able to lay my work down when I am not in the office. I wasn't able to do that when I was freelancing.

That being said, there are a lot of changes coming up at work, what with a colleague taking an extended leave and a new person coming on board, plus moving to a new building, and a bunch of deadlines. The only thing I can do is to take it one day at a time.

I remembered that Germans wish every. single. person. they meet after January 1st a Happy New Year, so I may have to carry around a notepad for the next week to keep track of who I've already met with. Between that and remembering who you say Sie to vs. Du, I don't know how Germans keep it straight.

Nee in Germany needs to rev her brain back up

I'm here to share my testimony of what a good trusted loan company did for me, I'm from Russian and I’m a lovely mother of 3 kids I lost my funds on trying to get a loan to expand my evergreen group company it was so hard for me and my children, I went online to seek for a loan assistance all hope was lost until one fateful day when I met this friend of mine who recently secured a loan from a very honest man Mr, Benjamin. She introduced me to this honest loan officer Mr, Benjamin who helped me get a loan within 5 working days, I will forever be grateful to Mr Benjamin, for helping me get back on my feet again.
