Coming ahead this month . . . . .

Happy August people!  I know for some people this is the month that you have been waiting for.  Why? Because your kids go back to school!  And you are looking forward the having that peace and quiet for those few hours at home.  You will be able to get most of your house hold chores done, complete those long waiting errors without having the kids in your hair, and perhaps getting to salon on time for once. 

However with this month also brings a new set of goals to complete and those few remain tasks from last month to finish up on.  but this month I also want to discuss what is going on here in Milwaukee with the Bus drives vs. the city negotiations.  These negotiations have been going on for quite some time now and there has even been a 3 days stop drinking strikes. ( Don't get me started!) As I writing about this, I believe that it will come in 3 or 4 pieces; depending on how pissed off I get in writing it!
Of course I thoroughly having conversations with the buses drivers themselves in getting their put about all of this.

This month also wraps up for me in one more class finish for my Masters.  In 3 weeks I would have to take the finals; isn't it funny that you know when the final is coming but yet you are still not prepared for it?  However believe it or not that is when I need a bottle of Gray Goose to be sitting on my desk.  And as September slow itself to us, I have no ideal what class I need to take next term. 

What I do know is that for some us we better hurry up and use some of those PTOs we have left, get a head start on that school supply shopping, and make a list of the Christmas toys that you need to purchase now.  (Yes I said Christmas shopping.) But before we get that far ahead, for those of you who have teenagers in high school you should be getting ready for the Homecoming dance first. 

I feel for all the fathers whose daughter(s) are going on their first dance!  Mind wrecking isn't it?  So you got all of this month and next month to think about it!

The Psychology of Communication

So I ran across this topic in Pinterest and I really had to stop what I was initially doing to read this article about the Psychology of Communication.  Y'all know that I am about to have fun with this, right?   Here are two words that most of us do not know how to use well: psychology (and Lord help us!) and communication (Our Father, give us, all those on this earth the understanding of having patience with ourselves as we form our words to correctly come out of our mouths . . . . ) In today's time our biggest problem is that we don't listen to understand before replying.  (Can I get an AMEN! up in here?) In today's time, our biggest problem is that before we speak we do not grasp the full understanding of what the other person is trying to communication to us. (Can I get another AMEN! up in here?) In today's time, our biggest problem is that we do not full express yourselves right to fully received a proper and correct response.  (I ...

Happy New Year Everyone! How many of you are happy that the Christmas holiday are over with? January is here now and it is time to start thinking about what we want to accomplish in 2016.  First let's acknowledge that it is 2016!  WOW!  The only thing I can remember about 2015 is my son accomplishments that I am so proud of him for.  Not one but two MOS in the US Army and is now living in Seattle for his new job.  He's adapting and I am praying for him to have much success while he is there. In 2015 we seen more event things that will specificity impact on our culture in the years to come.  U.S. has had to deal with the forth coming of racism between City Police and African Americans because of several shooting that were not necessary to use.  Because of this our nation has had riots that have gone beyond the extent of "How could you?" and "Why would you destroy your city like that?" ISIS has made itself know throw the world with some event...
