The joys of school

Do you remember those days in school or college when the professor would tell you that her/his tests are multiple choice and essay questions and nearly all the students would breathe a sigh of relief (and nearly cheer) at the words “multiple choice”? Well, I was not (am not) one of them. If there is… Continue reading The joys of school

“And you doubted this…?”

One of the things that I’m really excited about this semester at CSULB is that I have the opportunity of being a Teaching Assistant for one of my favorite professors and classes that I took Fall 2012, Classical Sociological Theories. I know, I’m a nerd. I mean what student actually gets excited about the prospect… Continue reading “And you doubted this…?”

And then I said “you go girl!”

I think I had an out of body experience the other day, or at least as close to what one can have while fully awake and alert to everything happening around you at that specific moment. It had been a busy and productive day at work and as I was driving back home I was… Continue reading And then I said “you go girl!”

Bubble Gum Pink

I’ve seriously begun to question my better judgment. Remember I mentioned not to long ago that I’m not very girlie girlie by nature? I don’t do the accessorizing or polished looking makeup very well, but I by no means look disheveled either. Well lately I’ve decided to have my nails done and the first time… Continue reading Bubble Gum Pink

A purse and diaper bag kind of day

I realize I’ve been, once again, thoroughly inconsistent with my writing/posting so I’m trying something new. I’ve decided that Thursday evenings will be my writing day. Yes, I should be reading, studying, washing our daughters dishes, getting her food ready for tomorrow, and countless other things, yet I also should be writing because I love it… Continue reading A purse and diaper bag kind of day

Happiness is…

…Singing my daughter her bedtime song as she rests her head on my left shoulder, then suddenly she lifts herself up just inches from my face and begins to softly “brush” my hair and then tenderly place her hands on my cheeks, then going back to leaning her head on my shoulder. Thank you Lord… Continue reading Happiness is…

Precious Time

This little phrase couldn’t come at a more appropriate time. I found out last night that my dad’s sister passed away on Sunday. We had been estranged from my dad’s side of the family for many years because of family problems that are too complicated and too much detail to go into just now, so… Continue reading Precious Time

Every Morning is Christmas Morning!

Sweets has encouraged me to Journal/ record my thoughts and feelings at this early stage in our union so that in later years if I ever need to, I can look back and remember what we are doing this all for and how it all started. I have been…

Last Day

I feel like I’ve left you abandoned for some time now! Well, the month of July just flew by for me and yesterday, August 2, 2013, was my last day at Sanie Mfg, my home away from home where I dedicated 15 years and 8 months. I got a bit choked up as I said goodbye… Continue reading Last Day

Change and new beginnings

The last week has been a whirlwind of emotions. Much to my surprise (and total happiness) I was offered a job at my intern place, WHW!! I honestly never expected this to happen, and especially not so soon, and I need to say it before I even continue, God truly has a way of placing… Continue reading Change and new beginnings
