I believe this move will help me in my future endeavors in allowing me to focus on improvements in time management, my social network, blogging and my business.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am a one man show and I do at times find it difficult managing my time. This is a work in progress and I hope you will continue in following my journey.</span><br />

I won't deny that I have been out of the loop in many ways for various reasons. While I'm driving during the day, so much is on my mind and some of it takes me on a journey of wonderment. </span><div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I look at the positives that are in my life but the things that go wrong, often overshadow any good that surfaces. I won't crawl into a shell and become nonexistent or downtrodden, but I do have a tendency to get quiet.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Many of you know that I lost my oldest brother to prostate cancer a couple of years ago. My second oldest brother lost his battle in the same way this past February. I think about my mom and how hard this must be for her losing her two oldest in this way. I have been remembering things my brother Ray (recently past) had talked to me about over the years. One thing comes to mind that we both wished we could have done, but the funds just wasn't there. I think I was about 17 maybe 18 years old and he said that the price of gasoline was going to rise drastically in the future. At that time, it was unheard of. We were enjoying gas prices well under a dollar per gallon, cigarettes were also less that a dollar a pack. He said that if I could, to put money into oil stock...that was good advice I didn't or couldn't follow up on.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Even though I didn't talk to my brothers on a regular basis while they were here, I do miss them.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There have been other issues that have taken their toll on my mind and I do feel drained emotionally.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Attempts at getting back to a regular routine has proven to be difficult for me, but it will happen. I look to God for strength and endurance....I can't do it without Him. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here's to moving on and hanging tough.</span></div>

How we handle those situations define, to a point the character that make up our being. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Defining moments have a tendency to strengthen our character...or they can make us weak. Who we are at this moment in time, could derive from the lessons taught by others and the lessons learned from life. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Attempts to get through it all by way of deception is of no benefit to the deceiver as much as they may think it is. They learn no true values of life and reap the hand they play. For the recipient of the deceptions, much is learned and they in turn grow wiser.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Good sound wisdom passed on, generates a fire that burns deep into the minds that seek knowledge for the betterment in life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Circumstances are a necessity that is required for growth, and growth is necessary in life. </span><br />

If you haven't noticed the link to my CafePress store is gone from my sidebar and that is because I have closed it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm focusing my efforts now into my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/DesignsByReglandus" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">Etsy Shop</span></a> which is now open. I currently have three items and working on another as of this moment but stopped so I could get this message out. I will do my best to keep you updated when new items are added. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I will add a link to my Etsy Shop on the sidebar soon.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As mentioned earlier, Valentines Day is approaching and many of you are familiar with The Bottomless Heart I designed a couple of years ago. That is the first card in my shop for Valentines Day but can be given for other occasions as well such as anniversary, birthday or just because. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I made some changes from the original design which are more simplistic. It still features the story line behind the design of the heart which is your expression of love and time shared together, with the one you love.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is a photo of the card's front. Please visit my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/DesignsByReglandus" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">Etsy Shop</span></a> to see the rest.</span><br />

If you have been with me for awhile, you know that we were seperated for three years. Now back together for two, I'm mixed on how I feel. Without going into great detail because of the time I have right now, I remembered yesterday, forgot this morning. </p>
<p>No gifts exchanged due to money matters. I'm wondering what I would have done if that wasn't an issue. </p>
<p>Well, I running out of time...maybe I will finish this later.</p>

I've been an absent blogger for quite some time...too long. </p>
<p>Well, if there is nothing to say, say nothing. Actually I could have posted a few things but I try to stay on the positive things...even when things aren't all the time. </p>
<p>The new year is already upon us and it came in pretty quiet for me. </p>
<p>As I have said in the past, I have been busy. My Etsy shop is officially open and I'm gradually adding products. </p>
<p>I'm getting ready for Valentines Day and will add a link in a couple of days. I am really excited about starting Etsy and going this route is a winner. </p>
<p>I think I will close my CafePress shop even though there are links out there to some of my items. </p>
<p>Well...I have to go now....Samuel just came in wanting me to draw a garbage truck.</p>

I've opened a couple of them to see what I've written and noticed that I've done some experimenting along the way since I started this blog.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I recently deleted my second most read post because I wasn't really thinking when I wrote it and I thought it may have been offensive to women. Thinking back, I was angry not at women, but with TheWife and just happen to blurt out loud my frustration and the post really had nothing to do with why I was upset with her.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In general I am happy to say that my blog hasn't really changed although I have done some experimenting. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This post...<a href="http://whatruworkinon.blogspot.com/2010/04/world-class.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">World Class</span></a> gets a lot of reads and reflects the core of my blog. I believe that life in general is our place of learning. Not taking away from text books, but they can't give what life itself does. If we can't learn from life, all the books in the world are useless....that's just me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://whatruworkinon.blogspot.com/2011/01/life-has.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">Life Has</span></a>...is another post that has been read most recently by a few people. After reading this again brought to mind a post I had written about <a href="http://whatruworkinon.blogspot.com/2010/12/steps.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">Steps</span></a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Reading these reminded me of the style of poetry I like to write most although I have written a little on the <a href="http://whatruworkinon.blogspot.com/2011/02/i-have-traveled-far.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">dark side</span></a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A stroll down memory lane has brought back the experiences I have in writing this blog and what I've learned along the way. It's not a very popular blog but I do appreciate my followers and those who happen to drop in unexpected. I keep moving along and I'll see what this journey has in store.</span><br />

Some of it making me very angry, some making me think even more, some giving me feelings of despair, and some giving me answers. </span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Early in my life, I had been taught to take responsibility for what I do and I have done that for the most part. I am far from being anywhere near perfect and I acknowledge that. I have made many mistakes that I take the blame for. I hurt when I hurt others.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When others make mistakes that affect me, I try to remember that they too are human and mistakes happen. But when the same types of mistakes happen on a consistent basis I have a problem with that. I know we are suppose to forgive, but the Lord knows I have trouble with consistent mistakes. When and where is the line drawn? I know too we are to forgive at all times.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In this skin that is humanity, it is very difficult...all too easy to hate those that do these things to us. But in the end, it is I who will suffer because of not forgiving. I will be the one whose bones will ache and drawn into a state of depression and despair. It is my mind that will be filled with bitterness that is best used for the betterment of my life and for those around me while they that choose to live a life of doing what they do continue to do what they do, whether knowingly or not. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The importance of forgiving is just that...very important. The effects of harboring unforgiving thoughts is far more damaging than one can imagine. It has no benefits that will be good for me. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am really struggling at the moment and I know I need to turn this around. I need to stop looking at what has happened over the past few years and move on. I have a lot of positive things going on and I am thankful for that.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Humility is hard to swallow. Perfection was given only to the one true God and He said that we are to forgive because He knows that if we don't...it is <i>we</i> who will suffer...and we are to leave the rest to Him. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ken wanted to know if I could do an official NFL design and I told him that was not possible because of copyrights and licensing. I told him I could come up with something I think he would like.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After the initial design was complete I sent it to him to see what he thought and what he would like to change. All he wanted changed was moving a few things around. He was totally happy with the design itself.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I wanted to get some feedback on the finished product so I took it to work and everyone that saw it was really pleased with it. Nothing definite but I may have two more orders coming because they liked what they saw.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I know everyone won't like it but I am happy with the response I got so far. </span></div>

It began to unfold as I got bits and pieces of what was happening north of us while I was at work today.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As I sit here watching the news, the devastation is coming to light. I almost feel as if I was being selfish, but I posted that before the northern portion of our area had been hit. Still for me, it doesn't lessen the blow.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The loss of life and property is mounting and so does my feelings of being an idiot.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Lessons are learned in so many different ways. I wish I didn't have to learn this one.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My thoughts and prayers go out to the families who have lost loved ones and to the survivors who will recover from this change that has taken hold of their lives.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hurricane Sandy is making an impact but could be much worse due to its size and I for one feel very fortunate because this could very well be a Category 2 or higher hurricane which would have made this a much more destructive storm than what it is....not to say Sandy isn't doing any damage at the size it is.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I recently came across this photograph by way of my <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/105233297395920527078/posts"><span style="color: #990000;">Google+</span></a> stream courtesy of <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/107078985915022899102/posts"><span style="color: #990000;">Anissa Mayhew</span></a> who shares a lot of nice pictures on her stream from other members.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I don't know what it was about this photo but I was impelled to write a poem about it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To give you a heads up, this is the first of more to come in a series I'm calling: <i>A Blogger's Pic In Poetry</i>. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm not sure where I will find them or how often I will see a poem in a photo, but when I do, it will be included in the series.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I will say that I have spent some time on <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/117865657916498538688/posts"><span style="color: #990000;">Daniel Plumer's Google+</span></a> page and I have four poems from some of his photographs. This is the first and I will post the rest in the order that I viewed and wrote the poem for each one. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What is, reflects of itself</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Doubling of single, non-stealth</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rocky hard, branches sticking</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Softly seen, yellow green lifting</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am who I am, am I?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Seen as such is, to eye</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Same as is, unchanged two one</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Crazy it is, when seen how it's done</span><br />

It has not been easy for me to push forward to reach for that gold ring as the wheel goes around. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I think of the setbacks and how hard it has been for me to regroup, breath, forgive AND forget. It is so hard to keep a frame of mind to NOT let things keep me from accomplishing what I know I am capable of doing. It is so easy to listen to that voice telling me to give up, quit, it's not worth it, OR that it can't be done. Telling me that no one really cares or wants what I have to offer. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sometimes I start feeling and believing that. I do want to stop and I do hear myself say those words, breathing sighs of discouragement.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Yes it is easy to drop it all after losing so much in preparing for this moment in my life...when just a few short years ago I was tool ready and now starting from scratch.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I could let these emotions fester like a sore and destroy me, but then I'm asked if I still make Shadowbox Clocks and I say yes and now find myself custom designing an 8 x 8. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I do have a lot of things going on and I do intend to keep moving on and NOT giving up. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Yes I am hard on myself at times but it's a good thing. As much as I would like to post on a regular basis, I's getting busy for me and it may get <a href="http://whatruworkinon.com/2012/10/14/its-been-quiet-here-but/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">quiet here, but...</span></a></span><br />

The first is the gift clock I mentioned before. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It has a picture of Theresia's son Austin, as a baby with a poem from him to his mom. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is the picture she sent to me in an email and I tried to use it for her clock but because all the elements are joined together, I couldn't get the fill colors separate. So I started going through my inventory of art and came up with this. I used The Bottomless Heart in place of a solid heart and I think it gives a ribbon type look as a bookmark.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm happy to report that I am back to working on past and future projects, and getting myself on a schedule that will work for me....not easy. Most of the graphic designing is done late evenings into the wee hours of the mornings, so my daytime is mostly frame work...cutting, glue, testing to see what works and making necessary changes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A new project I have is another custom 8x8 shadow box clock. This is a digital clock design that should be done soon...the clock is currently in shipment to me. Once it's here it won't take long to finalize everything. As you can see in the picture below, the facial molding is being put in place. </span><br />

I was wondering what my next move will be and how to achieve goals that have been set. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Knowing what I want to do is a non-issue. I'm currently having a supply and material issue. It isn't very big but annoying nonetheless....so in the meantime I do what I can albeit with frustration settling at the threshold....just hanging there, going nowhere fast. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today is my first day of doing anything concrete and in the process I came across this <a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2CbICo" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">post by way of StumbleUpon</span></a>. For me, it couldn't have come at better time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After reading lesson #1, I was hooked. I continued reading the following lessons and came away not with new ideas but focused....realizing what my next move should be. In a way I already feel as if I was centered in a lot of what was written in the post or heading in the right direction. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It helped me to also see that I have resources at hand that I had forgotten about or just plain neglected. Supplies are not the real sticking point as much as materials and that may not be as large as my mind has painted the picture to be.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm not ashamed to admit </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">waning determination</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> has been rolling around inside of my head and dragging behind like a comet'</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">s tail was </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">giving up</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">. So when stuff happens, I guess the next time I'll throw up my hands and say...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">when we got there, we were greeted with hugs. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After awhile we went to 'the beach'...it's not really a beach but a place where you can be close to the water and enjoy some 'quiet time'...except for the cars and trucks zooming by on the freeway. If you zone yourself, you don't even notice the sounds....and the kids love it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's called "Mary Ellen's Bell". After I took the pictures, I rang the bell and remembered my dad and my brother. The emotions that flooded me caught me by surprise in a way...I sat in silence and read the names and comments by others that were beneath my feet on the commemorative bricks of the survivors and loved ones who lost their beloved.</span></div>

Any number of people can tell you the same thing over time but when one person speaks it, you finally hear it. You actually stop to breath, and it feels so fresh. It puts things into perspective again. That happened today. So that coupled with what I have and haven't been doing brings a welcomed collision. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What I haven't been doing is finishing some projects I started, but that did give me time to take the time to review what I have been doing with my designs and some other things I could be doing. So that got me started.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have been busy coming up with some new designs and was in the process of putting products on the site when the server crashed. I did get a few items up but not what I really wanted because I didn't have the images in my basket on the site yet. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So I'm actually pecking this out instead doing that. But this is one of those things I haven't been doing and has bothered me more than I should have let it. One of those things that I have struggled with the past few weeks. I haven't felt like writing or doing much of anything on the social network (which I have trouble with anyway), discouragement settling in and getting a pretty good grip.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then out of nowhere, the words come to light and they shook me. A much needed breath of fresh air. So thankful that it finally clicked. It just took one.</span><br />
