Off the Grid!

Hello Everyone,

I am so sorry that I have been off the grid this week however I had to prioritizes my work.  Some of you know exactly what I mean.  There are simply times where we become bombarded with work and things of life that causes us to disappear for a little while or just until things get settle for us. 

For me it is always school work in the last two weeks of each semester.  See, I attend an accelerate program for my Masters at Keller University, and each semester is only 8 weeks long.  Midterms are always on the four week and finals, you guess it, are during the 8 weeks.  Depending on the topic I may have to go straight to Trader Joe's and get a few bottle of wine so that I can still objective.  Yes I need help with that! (Sidebar:  for those of us who are in IT, when it comes to writing those proposals you know you need a drink! Stop playing! I am writing them in school, I can image what you are writing in the real world!)  Now I need a drink! (Water has been excused!)  Let me describe the feeling that goes thru me after reading 30 pages straight out of 88 or more - numbness in the body and brain dead. 

For some of us focusing on what needs our utmost attention is time consuming in the thought process itself.   Focusing for other take lot of them where they need a nap.  I can say that has happen to me on many occasions where I simply do not want to think about nothing just for a few sec.  (Sidebar: how of you do this?  You sitting at desk or in a meeting and you close your eyes for just a sec and drift off into lala land.  You know that you drift because you caught your bobbin like yo-yo!)   The usual position that we are all familiar with is sitting at the desk with elbows on the desk and our hands crossing, and we lend our head up against our hands, and we close our eyes for just a few minutes.  The next thing you know someone is calling your name.  It's the boss!

Keeping to ourselves with just a few select friends is always good because you don't want everybody knowing what is going on with you until you have completed what it is you need to do.  The less people who knows what is going on the better because you don't have to hear some of the comments that people would that would cause you to worry.  Don't need the drama!! 

With that said, I am back to my humorous self with all these thoughts just flowing around in my mind to share with all of you!  Especially my family members down in Texas because Q can't be the only funny one . . . . . okay, yes he can! (Q you can stop twisting my arm now!)

Breaking the Cycle!

As a parent we always want the best for our child(ren)., and we start with educating them on things that we think that would be best for them to know as they grow up.  I was still a teenager when I became pregnant with my only child, Nicolas.  Did I wanted a child at that time?  No I didn't and it was my mother who said to keep him and that she would help me raise him.  My mother was also a teenage parent starting with me and a year later came my one of two brothers.  Now you are probably thinking that my mother why didn't she teach me not to become a teenage parent?   I am assuming that and I was right, that she did not know how.  She wanted to do my best with my life but she did not know to explain to me how to go about living life.  Growing up with 3 younger siblings I saw the struggles that my mother went through, and in my head I knew that I was not willing to do some of things that she.  I knew in my head that if I was ...

Can you commit a Crime?

So when I came across this question: What is the most serious law you’ve broken doing something you thought was morally right, wouldn’t hurt anyone, or was no one’s business but yours?  How bad would the punishment have been if you’d been caught and given the maximum sentence? I was first like “Let me get a parking ticket first before I start thinking about doing something more serious that would retain to the law.”  That’s right yours truly here has never had any tickets from the police or even broken any law. I am a chicken shit when it comes to the law. Hell, let me get a speeding ticket while I am at it! There are some of you who are so much more advanced in this law breaking thing. That I am just going to find a corner and sit there. But let’s think about the jury and if you were on the jury, would you be willing to convict a person for something you didn’t think should be consideration a crime?  If you are like me, then you hate it when you when tha...

Family Drama

Hello everyone, I know the that year is coming to an end and everyone is busy with Christmas coming and the New Year coming, oh there is just so much coming at once. I am so happy to get away this coming Christmas that I can not possibility can not find a way to put it all in writing.  If you did not have family drama during Thanksgiving then it is waiting for you for Christmas. And don’t you just love when you have to deal with family drama? Like parties involved expect you to be involve or they get mad because you try to apply some rationality to the situation that they are either not able to see or not willing to admit the solution.This is the killer part ladies and gentlemen, both parties or all parties believe that they are right. Here is anything that is amazing about family drama: if you voice your opinion they get mad at you. And stay mad at you! Am I right? Y’all I got family drama in the house but then again when is there never drama in the house. ...
