Journal Entry for May 11, 2016

This morning, I had a fun time with both Ben and Blake.  I had the distinct honor of feeding them breakfast and giving them their snacks and lunch all before I got ready for work today.  I love to spoon feed Blake his yogurt and oatmeal.  It was something I did for Ben when he was a little baby.  I can see myself feeding Ben when he was younger and before Blake was born.

I had to leave these guys behind in order for me to go to work today.  Before I hit the road, isotopes for my free soda over at the local RaceTrac.  I needed this one to get through the day.  Once I get into work, I have to start editing the afternoon shows right away.  After spending an afternoon editing and taking phone calls for feeds, I get exhausted around turbines have to delete media.

The highlight of my shift is writing stories and later editing video for them.  I do that for the 11PM news on CBS46.  I feel a little more alive when I'm in the newsroom.  The energy is not sucked out of me when I'm out there compared to the times I sit in my edit bay at work all day.  I hope to gain more knowledge and skills just being out in th he newsroom.  I have to go now.  Ill be back for more tomorrow.
