Santa is Coming To Town


Wish upon a Star

When I was in elementary school my music teacher took us to Rollins College. They put on " The Man from LaMacha". I don't know if I spelled it right but I am sure you can get just of the name. We sat in the balcony. I have never forgot that play. This one actress sang "To Dream the Impossible Dream". She did such a beautiful job, I was just a kid and it brought goose bumps to me. We got to go in the back and meet the actors that was so nice. In a way I guess I feel the same way as the song. the only thing is I am doing it I am graduating. This week God willing and he is I will be finished with this part of my schooling, and get ready for the next part of my schooling. I would like to thank all of my teachers that I have had in these last three years. I wouldn't trade meeting any of you for nothing in this world. Each and everyone of them are very special. I want to thank all of them for having patience with me. You can teach an old dog new tricks it just takes a little more patience.

A Better Life

I have two weeks left in school. After this week I will only have one week. Thank the Lord he helped me thru this chapter in my life. I have already started looking for another job. I really hope I get this one job in Orlando. If God sees it I will. This job is forty hours a week which is a plus right there, plus more money an hour. In time I will be looking for a place to move too. I will miss my roommates but I feel I need this in my life to live on my own . I pray for this job I pray anyways thanking God for being with me, now I ask him for this job. I have called everyone I know and have asked them to put me on their prayer request list.


McDonald's was there to get me thru a difficult time and I thank them so much for their help, but is time for me to move on my bills need to be met and I also need to have money after the bills. I can't live on the hours they give me. They cut my hours and keep on hiring people doesn't make any sense to me. I am not the only one they cut. What I am trying to say is if you don't have enough money to give people hours that they can live on how can you hour new people. That does not make much sense to me. Favoritism is one of the major problems at the McDonald's I work at though.

I have vented for the day. I can't wait till the day I want have anything to vent about. I will have a better job my own place. I am not one of those people that aren't happy unless they are complaining I am the happiest when I don't have anything to complain about. Which will be when I have a better job forty hours a week, more money an hour, and my own place to live. I will know then my life is on the right track completely. I will have Saturday and Sunday's off. Sunday's will be the day for church and a nice meal I just can't wait for that day.

Nice Kitty


Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday of 2013

I went to work at 6:00 in the morning sick I was suppose to work till 2:00 in the afternoon but they let me go after 1:00 it wasn't as busy as they thought it was going to be. Which was fine with me they had brought other managers in from other stores and they weren't all that nice. My hours are short this week. I am getting so tired not knowing what your hours are going to be from one week to another . I have two weeks left in school and God willing he will help me find a better job in my field. The job will be forty hours a week so I can plan a budget. Beside the drama at work when I got to the house all I had to do was put the cheese on top of the Mac&Cheese and put it in the oven for a little while it wasn't long and I was full of turkey and the rest of the dinner. Which by the way was excellent. 

Black Friday I didn't  want to go shopping but Ms. Goodwin wanted to go. I found a pair of boots that fit and looked real nice on, turned around and looked at the line oh no I did not need a pair of bots that bad to stand in line for an hour or more. Ms. Goodwin she changed her mind also when she saw the line. We went to another store same thing but this time a got in line and the cashier left and I don't think she ever came back we left. We went out to lunch at an Italian restaurant we didn't have to wait and it was very nice. Then we decided to come back to the house. I was tired I still don't feel good and I had to go to work the next day.


I have two weeks left in school. The last week is going to be traumatizing. Two finals and my certification test, two in one day. I know God will be right there next to me for that or I might not make it. I have an exceptional teacher teaching me CPT and I feel she will do everything in her power to help me thru this test. At the end of the two weeks I will have my A.S. degree the start of my bachelors is on the way since I will have 102 credits. You only need  120 credits for a bachelors.

Thanksgiving Day

My Thanksgiving Day is going to be a busy day. I am going to work at 6:00 AM and work till 2:00 in the afternoon. I will go to the house and I hope I won't have to do that much cooking. I don't know what time I get off work the day before so I can do most of the getting ready then so when I get to the house all I have to do is put the food in the oven.

 I was sort of looking forward to coming down to Casselberry and have dinner at my friends . I don't want any problems with the people I live with .Mrs. Goodwin would probably get her feelings hurt if I was to go somewhere else instead of having dinner there.

 Even though my friend Linda this might be her last Thanksgiving and I would love to be with her, since Hospice has started coming to her house. This morning she was having such a hard time breathing it made me a little concern. I really hope that she is still in good enough health when I move back that we can go to lunch or the thrift stores. We both enjoy those so much. But on the whole my Thanksgiving is going to be a good day.

Goal

 



I think these are the cutest faces. I have never seen an ugly puppy or kitten or really what ever it might be.
I have given myself till March to have a better job. I should have my income taxes by then so I can move. If  I have to move back to Seminole County so be it. I will stay away from old friends they did not mean me any good then and for sure now. I would hope to move to Atlanta but if it was meant to be it will happen. Maybe with experience I will have a better chance to get a job there. God knows what he has in store for me. I still want my bachelors so maybe that is what is up. I move back to Seminole Co. I can do my schooling and do what my goal really is to be a counselor. Then if I am still so incline to move to GA. I can and go with a bachelor's degree. Then I can make excellent money and not have to worry how am going to pay any bill. That is my goal to be completely independent.

Paying attention

In class today we had a test if I would of did what the first question said I would not of done a couple of questions. I didn't do that bad but it is the same way I do my life. Not that bad but I just don't pay that close attention to my surroundings, or let me put it this way I wouldn't of gone down some of the paths I have taken. My goal now is the saying hindsight is 20/20 to be in front of my name not behind it anymore. I am making a point to listen to the voice in my mind no more second guessing myself  in life courses anyways, maybe not on tests but in life. In the last journey in my life if I would of paid attention to my gut feelings I would of saved myself a lot of headache and heartache. I can only thank the Lord for being with me. I don't know where I would be if he hadn't of been with me.

The Saga Continues

It didn't take long for the true man to come out. I never would believe that a man that I loved so much would ever be so mean, at times that was anyways. I thought it had to do with his drinking but not necessarily. Was I so self absorbed thinking that how could this man cheat on me and then be so abusive towards me. I guess a lot had to do that I was young and naïve. Then I think he cheated on his first wife not just with me but other woman also why not me. The morale of the story is don't mess with a married man an if you find out he is married run as fast as you can. You will get over the hurt in time, at least you are still alive to and you never know in time you might be able to help another person with their pain.

Once upon a time there was a king.

I met a sailor when I was nineteen I remember the first time I saw him, he was  so handsome to me any ways and that was all that mattered. A friend asked him if he was married he said no he wasn't which got me to thinking. By the way there is a moral to this story if you haven't wondered.  I started dating this man,I saw him every night except when he had duty and even then. We spent every week together, six months down the word I went to the Navy base my friend saw a friend of hers. For some reason she asked him if he had seen my friend, what do you think he said No! But I did see his wife. What! This man got scared when he saw my face he thought I knew, but he could tell I didn't. I should of ran far, far away but NO not Tammi. At the end of this part of the saga he left her and asked me to marry him. What do you suppose I said I didn't say what a normal sane woman would say I said yes. I couldn't believe I was going to be married to this man that I was so in love with I went against everything I believed in. I would never of been with a married man. But here I was getting married to one. He was eight years older than me. He could talk you out of your shoes and you would be apologizing that they weren't new. I just didn't know what I was getting myself into.

First Day Of Blogging

I am learning to blog. I didn't know what a blog was now I do. I hope this brings my grade to a better grade than my mid-term was. I enjoy my schooling but I will be glad when it is over. The drive from Edgewater to here is getting on my nerves.

When I finish school I can not wait to find a better job. McDonald's is doing it's purpose and I thank them for the opportunity to work. I have worked in other jobs where there was favoritism, but this McDonald's puts a whole new meaning to the word. If they happen to get mad at you, your hours are cut. Some of the managers talk like you don't have enough sense to pore water out of a boot. The owner will jump in and be sarcastic and doesn't really know what is going on. She gives out wrong sandwiches, is really bad mouth to everyone in front of the customers, so the other managers talk the same way to employees. If you happen to a young man you are (ok) you will get the hours you want. Oh did I mention if you are cute also. There has been times I will be finished doing something They will come and tell me to do what I just got done doing, tell me to do it again just because they didn't tell me to do it. I was taken off of prep for what reason the manager wanted another person to do it and her reason for taking me off was it was my fault for all of the shortages. But what got she couldn't even tell me. I had to ask her and then another manager said that was a lie. So I figure she just wanted her friend doing prep. This person does it how she wants to do it. But nothing will be said to her. I have gotten where I get nervous when it is time to go to work that is the worst feeling. To never know what jobs they are going to have you do, what hateful things are going to be said to you or they come in front of you turn their back and talk about you to whoever they are talking to at that time. You can ask a question to a manager and if it happens to be your day they don't want to talk to they will not turn around or answer you, you go to someone else and ask and start doing what that person said to do then the original person gets mad at you and yells at you and majority of time it is in front of customers and all. Sometimes I believe that just don't listen or care how they talk to you. They say don't take it personal how can't you when they are talking to you. I know one thing that is for sure if they where spoken to the way they talk someone would be fired.
