Very brief: work review/work under review...

1. My most direct manager, in my two part review, told me (2x) that I will keep going up and up. With God’s help that is, I add. I am getting better at office work and am pretty natural learning how to ‘manipulate’ software, quickly, within the rules for the good. 

2. A 12.6% raise for four years is decent (also there is already an automatic raise for those four years).

3. I have 95 articles now on academia.edu. I have made some slight upgrades to older articles as I do keep up with academic learning in bits during the week. I am listening to sermons and lectures, and write/revise somewhat my own work, mostly on the weekend. 

4. I am being social, I absolutely do make social time available. But with two careers, basically, I have no time or energy to chase anyone down or to try to convince anyone of anything, as in me chasing any kind of friendship. I am seeking to act as God leads, obediently in love and truth. I appreciate the new friendships I have made the last few years.

5. Self-improvement overall, continues...I share a bit in my writing, and that is about it.
