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!

I love Haters!

It is going to come off as being sarcastic or sadistic however just let me tell you the truth.  I really do love Haters!  Their negative energy gives me the best energy to keep moving forward in accomplishing my goals. I am not going to argue with as why they hate because I am being me.  Think about it!  Do you even know why your Haters hate you? What did you do for them to hate you?  I bet you don't even know why, do you?  I thought of some reasons why Haters hate. Your accomplishments stands greater than they actual do, even with heels on!  The fact that you are willing and able to go out there and get that education to empower yourself is a threat to them.  Other than finishing high school, what else did you with your education?  Since 2008, I have obtain an A.S. in English, a Master Certificate in Telecommunication Technology, an Executive Certificate in the Cloud and in IT Security, a B.A. in Computer Network Management and I am currently working on my Master in Informati

Learning Language and Love

Okay so once again I was reading in my favorite book, The Book of Questions when I became stuck on this question: If it was the only way you could remain with the love of your life, would you be willing for both of you to wake up tomorrow as native speakers of an unfamiliar foreign language, knowing the within a week you’d permanently forget the languages you now speak and largely be cut off from your friends and culture?  If so, what new language would you want to speak, and why? The first thing that came to mind was who would not want a lover or have the thought of having that foreign lover who could either speak French and Italian.  I know I did and I think that is why I took up Spanish in high school for the last 2 years. Then when I got in college, I continue with my Spanish and I took up Russian, Greek and Italian. Crazy right? Considering the Greek and Russian alphabets are so similar and that Spanish and Italian have some similar words. It was not until 9 years later

Being that Empty-Nester

Okay to all parents who are sitting around wondering what do I do now that the kids are gone? Surely most parents have thought about this question. “ What do we do once the kids have moved on with their lives?”  I did not have to ask that question because I could not wait for Nick to get his ass out the house and stay out!! I was feeling a new sense of freedom dancing around around the house and emptying a bottle of wine in my own celebration.  However that was me and you may have your own ideal as to what you want to do. It is just where to start, right? I think I tired several times before I have to force him to not return.  (Well, he had already enrolled in the Army to go full time so I thought it was the perfect opportunity for him to get his shit in order).  And I am so glad that he did. However I was already doing the empty nest thing before Nick even finished high school.  I had joined the Illinois National Guard and I was release with an honourable medical dischar
