Early Childhood memories - 3-5
Submitted by sablewing on Sat, 01/30/2010 - 13:06.I thought I would try to write up some articles about my childhood and what I remember so that I could share them with younger people who have grown up in a very different time. This first article covers my earliest memories from a little before I was 3 years old to around 5 years old.

2009 - Year of the Annoyance
Submitted by sablewing on Tue, 02/17/2009 - 12:45.Well, the year 2009 has gotten off to a quick start for me and it was quickly apparent what kind of year it was going to be. 2008 was definitely a year of transition for me and a lot of other people I know. A lot of change going on and most of it was for the better.
On Celebrating Holidays in a Non-Standard Household
Submitted by sablewing on Sat, 12/06/2008 - 12:02.Today is my birthday and I am reflecting yet again on how holidays in our household are not celebrated in the standard storybook fashion. For starters, I like to tell people my age is 0x2E and I'm looking forward to turning 0x30* in two years. I am taking the day off but stopped by work today for a visit and spent a frantic few minutes helping out in getting some network problems straightened out.
Reminded of an Old Dream
Submitted by sablewing on Sun, 11/09/2008 - 12:06.I was reviewing my site recently and reminded of my dreams that I had written down here. However, I didn't find one that I had thought I had recorded so thought I would add it in now. The dream is related to an experience I had that I talk about some in this blog entry. However, before I had that dream I had the one I describe below. And I found my original diary entry for the dream, so I will just transcribe what I wrote some 17 years ago.
2008 - Year of Transition
Submitted by sablewing on Sun, 10/19/2008 - 10:31.I've been thinking about writing this post for quite a while, figured I should take a shot at getting it done before 2008 finishes up. So far 2008 has been a year full of transition, for me and many of the people I know. And it seems to be a common theme that I've noticed when talking to people, even the economy and the US government is going through changes and transitioning to something else than what it was before. Has all of this change, this transition, been easy? No, not really, but then growth into a new stage of life usually isn't.
First Impression, Wrong Impression
Submitted by sablewing on Sun, 07/27/2008 - 02:31.I recently had a couple of encounters where I offered 'expert' advice on small business management and IT support to a couple of different people. After talking with these people and some follow up conversations later on I realized that these people already knew the facts and were very polite in not handing me my head during the initial chats. Well, that will teach me. So I will work on not making an assumption of ignorance and that I am duty bound to try and educate someone who may already be a lot better educated and experienced than I am.
Book Review: Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain
Submitted by sablewing on Sun, 06/08/2008 - 05:43.Several years ago I became interested in drawing and trying to improve my artistic abilities. While I was doing this I ran across the book Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. I would definitely like to recommend this book for anyone who is interested in improving their drawing abilities and hasn't had much luck with regular art classes.
The Teaching Hands of the Universe
Submitted by sablewing on Tue, 06/03/2008 - 11:44.Lately I have been reminded of a belief I hold about the lessons that occur in life and that our reaction to these lessons can help us grow or have us repeating a lesson until it takes. These aren't just lessons taught in school, these are lessons that form our character, define our actions and eventually pronounce who we are as a person. *
