Self improvement

Page_1

No matter how much I try improve myself, I find new things I need to work on. Forgiveness is one of them. Patience is another. I understand the process of improvement is a recurring process, but I would like to see the results of the things I’m doing. See why I need patience? I need [...]


In Los Angeles

Page_1

If this post has posted, it means I didn’t get home in time to blog. Sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused you. I know you just love reading my blog on a Saturday night. Now, get a life. You shouldn’t be reading my blog on a Saturday night! You should be having fun! [...]


Hair blues

Page_1

I hate the process I have to go through after washing my hair. Nothing sends me into a hair funk like having to blow dry my hair and then flat ironing it. I just want to let my hair be. I’ve been thinking a lot about Sisterlocks lately, mostly because I’m tired of my hair [...]


Romantic Mystery

Page_1

I got the lamest fortune cookie from Panda Express today. I can’t figure out what it means. What is a ‘romantic mystery’? What is it? Is it a book or a person? What? I don’t take fortune cookies seriously, but when everyone in your life tries to blow out your light, the message on a [...]


Forgetfulness

Page_1

I seem to be unable to remember a lot of things. For example, I had a really great post in mind for tonight but now I can’t remember. I know it was really good too. Geez. If only I could remember. I’ll probably think about it again when I don’t have pen and paper or [...]


What I’m Reading

Page_1

I’m an avid reader. There’s nothing better than reading a good book. For the past year, I’ve been reading books on business, relationships, and finance. My reading interests have everything to do with my business. I’m new to business, I enjoyed learning finance in school, and I happen to not be so good at relationships. [...]


Marriage

Page_1

Someone I was friends with in high school contacted me.  She’s married now, which is why I didn’t recognize her name at all. I love hearing about people getting married because for a split second, I can see myself married. And then I’m snapped back into reality. Getting married isn’t top priority on my To-Do [...]


Day 52

Page_1

I don’t feel like blogging. Sometimes blogging everyday sucks. I need to get done with my expenditures list.


What?

Page_1

I took my mom out to dinner last night and we got to talking about our businesses. I just want to get to the point as I don’t feel like blogging all night long, but my mom said she likes having unprofitable businesses for the tax write offs. WTF? I don’t want to keep my [...]


I’m so bad

Page_1

Yep, I’m bad. I completely planned on getting my paperwork, receipts, and travel logs together so I can get my taxes done. But instead, I’m watching tv on the Internet. I actually don’t want to watch tv. I sat and listened to someone at work talk about all the tv watching that occurs after returning [...]


Getting fired, laid off, downsized, whatever you want to call it

Page_1

No, I didn’t get laid off or fired but someone hired up my chain of command did. It’s really sad. I think this person had spent 20 years with the company. On top of that, there is a job posting which this person could have qualified for. There’s no such thing as a secure job. [...]


Taxes

Page_1

Ah, it looks like I will have the time to get my receipts together and done with for tax season. I can’t wait to get this over with. It will be interesting to see just how much I will get back in taxes now that I have a home-based business. I will definitely have to [...]


Occupied

Page_1

Sorry for the short post. I just had to get something posted. I’m in Bakersfield.


Spam

Page_1

Why was spam invented? I’m not talking about the canned meat, I’m talking about email, blog, and any other kind of spam for electronic/Internet communication. I don’t get it. I’ve been getting an unusual amount of comment spam almost to the point where I want to turn off comments. I don’t want to resort to [...]


Happy Valentine’s Day

Page_1

The potluck was fun. I enjoyed myself. I feel guilty because I didn’t go outside to dance but I didn’t feeling like listening to the music. Some of us preferred staying inside and watching the Winter Olympics. I didn’t meet anyone I could see myself being married to but I did meet some people who [...]


Valentine’s Day Potluck

Page_2

I’m in LA stuffing my face at a potluck for singles. I’m hoping one of these dishes is good ! I’ll let you know if there are any great men here.


Unemployed

Page_1

No, I’m not unemployed but it seems everyday I’m reminded my job is never secure. I can’t really go into details, but another way of saying “You’re fired!” is “Here’s a severance package.” Fired, laid off, downsized, outsourced, early retirement…all terms for the process of becoming unemployed. Sometimes you’re given a warning and sometimes it [...]


What’s my business?

Page_1

I like it when people send me personal messages about my blog much more than comments. I always try to answer my emails when the time permits but my schedule sometimes prevents that. Now about last night. I had a blast. It was great being around people who want to take control of their lives [...]


Exhaustion

Page_1

I’m totally exhausted. I haven’t recovered from the last few days. I didn’t get home until 3 am this morning. I didn’t sleep in long either. I got up after 8 and frantically searched the house for my mail box keys because I was expecting an order. Anyways. I just barely got home from church. [...]


Day 40

Page_1

I’m in Anaheim learning how to grow my business. I need a energy I get from being around people who want to take control of their lives rather than have their lives control them. Sorry about yesterday’s post. Hopefully, I will have something good to share.


Day 39

Page_2

I wish it was okay to vent about things that are going with me during the day but it wouldn’t be kosher. So, I will just have to keep it to myself. Anways, I dislike sour pusses and I’m trying to keep my blog on the positive note because nobody wants to read a negative. [...]


This week

Page_1

I have a lot to do this week. I hope I will be able to post to my blog. If not, I will at least post a lovely graphic. Anyways, Fox does it again. Dollhouse got canceled and I’m not happy about it. I swore after Sarah Connor Chronicles that I would never watch Fox [...]


Shopping

Page_1

I hate shopping. I think I’m one of the few women to hate shopping. The more clothing a store has on it racks the more frustrated I get and leave. I like stores with the clothing organized by color, size, and style. The more organized the store is, the more I’m likely to stay and [...]


Day 36

Page_1

I think the dog’s gone senile or something. He keeps messing in the house. The poor dog. Lost his brother four years ago and his girlfriend 3 months ago. He must be lonely. I think this will be his last year with us. He’s ten years old and for a chow, is pretty dang old. [...]
