UNDER THE RADAR

I used to be that person most would call to find out about stuff, no matter what, where or who I had the trival and important information. Plethora of useless and useful information.

I stopped wanting to be that person a long time ago. It became draining and it took away from the things I wanted and needed in my life. I focused less on self and more on others issues. I am officially under the radar now. I stopped calling people and of course when you stop calling them eventually they will stop calling you. I became selfish with my time and I no longer spend hours on end listening to someone tell me all about their issues and still do nothing to change.

I should have charged people for me having to listen to them, and for the calls asking if I know someone that.... I should be a millionaire had I put that talent to better use.

However, I have now become insignificant by choice. I don't listen to my voicemail so I don't return phone calls and those that know the deal know how to reach me. I am being quiet. I am making moves and changes.

To be continued......

EVERYTHING IS GOOD!

I'm at peace! I'm feeling good! Spring always brings this lioness out of her den, feeling refreshed and blessed and less stressed.

I feel love during this time of year the weather is beautiful and life is excellent! People are friendly, smiling and holding hands. Expressing love.

I love to get on the highway with my music blasting and drive! I hate traffic but I do love the stretch of the open highway. I will be on the highway more often this spring summer too..... I plan on spending some time in Jersey on the shore with a friend. I plan on driving to Philly to see my BFF for sure. I just can't wait to enjoy and have fun before the new school year begins for my daughter in Fall 08.

We completed our mission of dress shopping for eighth grade prom and graduation. We even purchased the shoes. So we are on the mark and the only last minute things we will do are the maintenance things that you have no choice but to wait until the day of or before.

In between all of the shopping my daughter celebrated her fourteenth birthday. No party no big hoorah, no bells and whistles this year. I think certain birthday's are just small milestones and until she turns 16 we won't be having a big bash. But the Sweet Sixteen I will make sure she does it up right. She is after all the one and only child and she is a good kid, no trouble excellent grades just typical kid stuff. That may all change later on but I'm a great Mom and I doubt we won't be able to work thru any difficulties should they arise.

Well, I will probably write again after I get settled into our new offices on Monday. Oh yes we are moving locations. Whatever, I'll adapt because I'm an adaptable human being.

I do have someone pursuing me right now. I am interested but I must admit that last weirdness has made me bitter. I'll get over it I'm sure but for right now I'm happy being single. I don't want to do anything but fouc on myself and my retiring @ age 44. What am I doing to accomplish this you may wonder. I am praying every day all day about being free of the enslavement of corporate america. I bet you are wondering "how is that going to work you need a plan". I have one it is called FAITH! Well I have other small ideas also, but lol.. we'll see what happens. I'll keep you posted over this journey of faith and prayer.

TGIF- Random

I can't wait to exit the building! I have sat here at the J.O.B. (just over broke) all day long and have done minimal work. Anyway, I'm thankful to have a job and getting the big bucks for it too! I'm thankful for my apartment and all the amenities that are in the apartment also.

I love living high in the sky. I can see the Empire State, Verrazano Bridge and some other eye catching spots from my balcony. Yup I live high in the pie in the sky....I stand out there sometime and say YES the world is my oyster. Living that high up you kind of get this feeling of empowerment that unless you are standing out there you just won't get that loving feeling..lol..

It's time for eighth grade prom and I am knee deep in dress hunting woes for my soon to be graduate! My daughter went from casual sneaker loving girl to slinky sex kitten wannabe over night! I had to put that mess in check by making her aware that she is not a high school grad and even then it isn't appropriate but that's what the girls wear. At this point I have control because she is just in 8th grade so there will be no sex kitten dress however there will be poof and lace. She will earn her leeway as she moves up in age and shows more responsibility.

This has been an interesting uneventful week. Interesting because I have met interesting people. I am openminded and I am even more open to people and their randomness. The week on a whole was uneventful for me, but I still shared in my nutta butta's excitement. She had her work publilshed via her local newspaper in Philadelphia both in hard copy and online. Shout out to nutta butta again. She said this is her year and so it has been proven thru her hard work and persistance. Do ya thing lady!! Do the damn thing!!
