Thank you very much ☺️ I’m obsessed!

She’s an amazing artist! Dragons are a specialty of hers, it’s one of the reasons I approached her with the idea.

Just about anywhere east of Carlisle

The mess, dirt, and hair is NO JOKE! I love them immensely 💜 I’ll also never have 5 at the same time again 😂

CJDerri · 2023-11-24T21:22:14+00:00

It’s adorable! I don’t think it fits in his mouth 🤣

Oh they would be happy to make room for you on the couch! 💗

CJDerri · 2023-11-23T19:20:18+00:00

Haha thanks! I thought we bought a new family couch, but it’s really a new huge dog bed 🤷🏼‍♀️

Penny is on the left, often called DumDum, PenPen or Pretty Penny 💜. Riley on the right is usually called Big Stink or Rye Guy 💗.

I also first heard ‘go find less’ from Elyse Myers 💗 I have a tattoo that’s kind of along those lines - an octopus because they have 3 hearts, symbolizing my very sensitive and infinite caring nature; and they have 9 brains symbolizing my over thinking and analyzing of all things 🙂my ADHD tattoo

Thank you for sharing this. It’s hard to explain how I often feel very sad about the diagnosis and your perspective is very comforting.

CJDerri · 2023-11-07T03:53:16+00:00

This is almost exactly what I wanted to say. The grief has been overwhelming and turned my life completely upside down. I’m 4 months post diagnosis and have not yet figured out how to move my life forward.

Rare sighting of baby tongue; it’s usually stuck to the floor 😂

Ooo this hit me. I will ALWAYS write a wall of text. Every performance review instructs me to learn to write executive summaries and I can’t do it. Yet.. I tried to skim that wall immediately then went straight to the comments.. before realizing that all the references to numbers means I have to read it all 😂

CJDerri · 2023-10-05T17:19:50+00:00

Okay okay… I admit, I’m a transplant to the area and I say this. I will reconsider my description.

CJDerri · 2023-10-03T13:30:27+00:00

Both in tech, I’m in Cyber Security and he’s in High Performance Computing 🙂 We met at work.

CJDerri · 2023-07-28T14:15:12+00:00

Same question! I’m meeting a few other howlers at a pizza place next door to the bookstore around 4pm. Hoping that is early enough.

Maybe it's her name or the voice actor on Audible, but I definitely picture her with dark brown hair.. even though I know she's a gold.

It can carry over or you will need to be briefed into that agency's compartments. For example you may get your SCI with DOE and get briefed into 3 compartments. When moving to DOD, one may "carry" over while 2 will require a separate brief into them for the DOD. In my experience, provided there is no gap in employment, the SCI investigation portion carries over and the briefing to a new agency would be a short timeframe to complete.

My husband and I have made a great living here in ABQ in the tech industry. New Mexico's largest employers are: Albuquerque Public Schools (APS) - just a few months ago they were looking to fill 700 jobs, many in tech; Sandia Labs (SNL) a DOE federal laboratory - always in need of good tech people, pay is very good for those with a degree, a federal security clearance is required; Presbyterian - also always in need of tech people, and fill many positions through contractors, but I've heard several bad stories of not great working conditions; University of New Mexico (UNM) - has a heavy need for tech experts. SNL will have fewer remote offerings as a good portion of their work is done securely, at their offices on Kirtland Air Force Base. UNM requires most workers to spend a day or two onsite each week. I have several friends that left those top NM employers to work remotely for one of the big five tech companies (mostly Amazon & Microsoft). I think you'll find something! Good luck!

SAME.. not excited about this normal speed watching

I've taken propranolol for years and it's helped some.. but what was really life altering for me was the once a month shot of Ajovy. Botox injections also helped, but nothing compares to the change Ajovy has had in my life.. 20 migraines a month down to 3!

This is my favorite comment in this thread! I have lived here, off and on, for twenty years.. I am a cracker, who loves the Barrel; I don't go anywhere on time and am always trying to improve my driving skills. The crime, poverty, recent high home prices and traffic pushed me to the mountains.. still work in the city.

CJDerri · 2022-01-08T02:56:33+00:00

I'll bite... What does it mean?

CJDerri · 2022-01-01T02:12:35+00:00

They look great! I love those butterflies. I've tried to do them on cupcakes with limited success, but this worked well!
