a new week

As we plan the wedding that will take off in less then 5 weeks (ahhh) I panic because the grass isn't as green as it should be for the pitter patter of my AVRAH feet and the 3 shrubs that need to be replaced haven't filled those gaps just yet in our flower bed. The next thing is to force my husband to be a part of deciding on the arch decorations because mom and I are ordering flowers tomorrow. The colors stay the same but some ideas flow in other directions which are still good to go ....but different in a lot of aspects. Women are fickle....With Eli's most respected decision we chose a fabulous arch decor ...fabulous and simple. but I think i want to add white lights and color....I believe it's going to be gorgeous.

I can see eli now staying in his corner and saying just OK OK to everything at some point in the next 5 weeks. Poor man!

I didn't get my dress to the dress maker in time so I'm must going to order it online. I love the one I recently found and just going to order the dress.

Tomorrow I go to with my mommy to order the flowers ....we're so excited!

what 1 meeting can do to a person

So tomorrow I meet with my boss for my probationary evaluation. I haven't been this nervous in a long time. I am kinda excited because I love positive feed back. I love hearing about what I need to work on because new goals in my life are developed. I am one of those person who work to meet the planned goals and say "bring on the rest". so when I did my self eval, the easiest part was figuring what I needed to work on rather then what I'm good at. Does that make sense?

I have found myself in very odd and difficult situations and have decided that just sitting back, continuing to be support, a team player is the best choice for me at this time in my career. Even though it breaks my heart to observe what happens, we're all adults there are other means to take care of situations. However, when you feel powerless and unsupported that 1 meeting can be destructive to the best of spirit.

I am now on the other end of the spectrum, being a manager can be a very stressful job, I truly can emphasize that their jobs are not easy and every day brings a new beginning, a new lesson to be learned no matter how long you've worked in any industry. As a director I felt that way and as a case manager I still feel that way. Even though each level of direction is diverse, the principle on how you hand and approach situations always makes a huge difference on the success of where you are at.

It's just unfortunate you have to stuck up bitches who just think they are gods gift and don't see what they do to other's lives. GOD help me if I ever was one of those bitches.

Facebook and it's use!

One thing that I can't deny is the craziness that comes with FACEBOOK. I definitely find myself on there way more than I should....but I will tell you what, in all honestly FACEBOOk is my escape from reality even if it's just a few minutes or once a day now....I can go to FB and post and read and laugh and push my whole day to the side for a few minutes. I guess it's my drama that I don't have to keep ....being about to walk away from that is probably the ONLY reason I continue to be a part of the wonderful social network because it's not my realistic I have to pay my bills life, I can walk away any time and I don't get calls (just a metaphor) ha!

Wow what a day


We decided sometime last week to get up and go to San Deigo Natural History Museum to see the Titanic display, today was the 100 anniversary. Kaitlynn has really been interested in learning about the incident and what really happened to the boat, she is such an engineer like her dad and her Uncle Ron. We had so much fun FINALLY able to get out and do family stuff. It was great

So I sat in the car and had thinking time because I wasn't driving this gave me time go text friends for ideas, where to find this where to find that for the wedding. By the time I got home I started feeling like a real party planner :0) Thanks everyone for your help!! We have people coming from all over, Montana, Maine, Massachusetts (M STATES) even AZ. Ha...my mom and I sat down last night and talked about decorations and decided on flowers, that was such a great moment to share with my mom. I am so blessed and grateful for my friends and family. I keep visioning in my mind the colors and everything I can't wait until it all comes together. The flower bouquet is the color scheme we're going with and our centerpeices and stuff will all resemble this bouquet. Now to start my vows...The hardest part! why doesn't the man ever worry about things like this?

But one thing I will tell you I will express my opinion along with questions of ponder in my blog and however it is taken....well it's on who ever is reading it. Don't consume any amount of time wondering if it's about you, you'll drive your self crazy.

Milestones and life changing events

It's never a dull moment in my life stemming from family to friends, there seems to be a never ending line of drama. But in the end you find that it all turns out for the best. You meet new people every day, you find something new out about not only yourself but your children, your significant other your parents....??? What is it in today's society that drives people to do the things they do. Why does an individual decide to be a friend one day then deceptive the next?

It was an amazing experience once where I sat at an event watching all the people who have come in and out of my life at some aspect. Some who I could really not care about, some who have touched me and some well, that's another whole blog. In the last 10 yrs my life has been a roller coaster but I can honestly say I have been true to myself and to others. These people, defiantly not. If some ONLY knew what they have said while their back is turned and I am sure I've been the topic of their conversation.

But as I left I left a bit saddened, there were some I missed laughing with, crying with. Some there were promises made to each other wondering if they were forgotten. It's too bad we've all gone in different directions in our lives that so much precious time gets set by the waste side.

Through all this I have learned to choose my friends wisely. I have learned to quickly learn who I can trust and who I can't, not only in a personal aspect but professionally also. In the last year I have come to treasure those close to me and appreciate the time and laughter we have.

After an experience in my professional life last year I grew thick skin and in some way it was bound to happen. Don't get me wrong, I am the first one to say I made a mistake and GOD only knows I have made those mistakes, but life is short. Get off your pedestal before you fall...if not, I am sure there is someone out there that just might push you off.
