What I like about myself (part 2 of blog tour)

What do I like about myself? This is the latest subject willingly thrust upon me. Many in the tour have already posted their thoughts on themselves and for me this has been a bad and maybe good week for me to have this subject.

So, what DO I like about myself?

I like that I'm loyal, sometimes to a fault. I'll look past what others see and say deciding to make my own decision. I've done this for years. Someone may not care for someone else but that doesn't mean I can't. I was once told because a friend of mine had broken up with a guy that I should no longer be friends with him. But I'm sorry just because you two weren't right for each other doesn't mean I can't or won't be friends with them.

I like that I have a rather positive self view. I know I'm not the prettiest woman in the world but I'm not bad looking by any means. I may be a fat woman but I'm still attractive. Not everyone appeals to everyone else but there are people out there that like how I look and I'm comfortable in my own skin.

On that note I also like that when I do lose weight I don't continue to think I'm as big as a barn when clearly I'm not. I know many people who can't see that they have lost weight and that it is an accomplishment. I'm happy that I can be comfortable as a size 20 or a size 14 and realize that there is a difference between the two.

I like that while I may not be the smartest person in the world I do have a great amount of common sense.

I also like that I do have a pretty good grasp on things in that I don't just jump into decisions most of the time. The big ones take time to process and I am well aware of that. I won't just dive head first without making sure the water is deep enough to keep from cracking my head.

I'm happy that for the most part I'm an optimistic person. I believe that in the end things usually work out for the best regardless of the trip to get there.

I'm comfortable in my emotions. I am not ashamed that I cry when I get frustrated. I'm not ashamed that I giggle like a maniac sometimes to keep from crying.

I like that I'm a trusting person. That even when I've been burned in the past I still have the ability to trust again. I may trust differently or be a bit more careful but I refuse to put a wall around myself just because someone was false to me in the past. I believe they are the minority and that if I walled myself off from the rest of the worlds inhabitants I could do myself a great disservice.

I do like myself even with all my fuck ups and failures I do have achievements and successes. I am a good person even if I've done bad things. I have good friends and people who care about me and I wouldn't have that if I was a bad person.

"I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me!"

What's up?

The following was sent to me in an e-mail with no reference but I thought it was a good read so I'm passing it along. - Grinningcomb

--------------------------------------------------------

There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is "UP."

It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP? At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report?

We call UP our friends. And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car. At other times the little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special.

And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP. We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.

We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP! To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions. If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more. When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP When the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP.

When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP

When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP.

One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now my time is UP, so....... Time to shut UP.!

The Whore

Short post here a couple of people have asked who The Whore is and she is a former friend of double digit years who seemed to care more about her relationship with my husband than with me in the end. And that is a VERY long story short. It is possible (should anyone feel like looking) that a post in January could also be about the whore.

A work gripe

Ok so I work with a lot of blue collar guys. They are welders or machine fabs, all down to earth, half of them have loans they owe to someone somewhere. And these people like to call because they are given the work phone number. Now we have a rule that no welders/machine ops get phone calls unless they are emergencies. And we do have some of those calls because lots of them have kids and sometimes things happen and that's fine.

But when the loan sharks call and I tell them that we don't allow phone calls or messages unless it's an emergency they get snarky. They ask for the manager, I tell them I'm the office manager. They ask for HR I tell them I'm HR. They say they want to speak to the manager of I tell them no because that manager will only repeat what I have already said and that is we don't take personal messages. One man demanded to speak to my supervisor I told him no. He said I HAD to. I replied "says who?" He told me that because we are incorporated I was required by law to let him speak to my sup or have the name of my sup. Neither of which I was going to do. My plant manager is laughing and telling me to hang up on the guy long before now. Finally I told him he wasn't going to talk to anyone but me and hung up on him. He hasn't called back.

Today I had someone call for David or Michelle. I asked for a last name in case it was someone who went by a nickname. She told me a name that didn't match any of my employees. I told her no one worked here by that name. She repeated slowly "D-A-V-I-D or M-I-C-H-E-L-L-E." I repeated just as slowly "No one-by-that-name-works-here." She asked what company it was, I repeated that (I answer the phone "good afternoon " she apparently doesn't know how to listen) and she said "oh goodbye" and hung up....Two minutes later she called again. When I answered the second time she told me she had the wrong number...well no shit sherlock.

You know what grinds my gears?

I have a few co-workers that I consider friends. People I'm willing to do little things for if it is convenient for me. Like buy a bottle of tea if I'm getting myself a chocolate milk or something. I do these things unprovoked and unasked for because I like too. Not a huge thing but just something to bring a smile to the face of one of my friends. Now I do these things in a way that it isn't obvious that I'm doing special things for some of my co-workers but not all. I'll drop a drink in the fridge and then let the person know it's there so they can go get it and no one would be the wiser that it came from me instead of them bringing it in themselves.

Well today one of my friends decides to ask me to bring him in one and he'll pay for it which I don't mind at all. However he said this in front of a new co-worker, one that I'm not all that close to yet and don't really feel the desire to do special things for. New co-worker decided that sounded like a good idea and asked if he could have one too. Which resulted in me saying I don't do anything for anybody now. Now knowing myself the way I do, I'll still continue for those I like because I want to. But my friend...oh he's gonna get an ear full before he gets any treats from me again you can be damn sure of that.

And that really grinds my gears.

Postscript: I do get treats for all my guys occasionally to so it's not like they are totally left out they get candy at least once a month if not twice.

Strange Vacation (part 1 of the blog tour)

I've been tasked (willingly) to write about the strangest place I've ever been on vacation. And I have to admit I haven't gone that many unusual places but I do have an unusual vacation (overall) to write about. Me, Gehnen, Benny, Alyssa, and the whore had all gone camping in Shasta Cali. We went in Sept (right?) and for those that don't know Shasta is in NorCal and cold in Sept. We leave after everyone gets off work for a 6ish hour drive so we arrive to the camp site around oh midnight and try and set up camp in the dark with just our headlights to give us the ability to see. So we pull everything out and quickly find out that the tent poles are no where to be found.

Yes ladies and gents you are right in your thoughts, we have a tent at midnight in the cold Cali mountains with no tent poles. So we are trying to come up with something that will get us covered for the night as we have 5 people and one car and no way can everyone sleep in there (nor do half of us want to.) So we pull the shoelaces out of my tennis shoes and throw them over a branch and pull the tent away from the completely level camp area to a not so level camp area and 3 of us (me, Gehnen, and the whore) climb into the tent, that we loveingly named Lumpy, while Benny and Alyssa go sleep in her car.

It was cold and uncomfortable and we kept rotating who was sleeping where because the person in the middle was the warmest. And yet overall the whole trip was still amazing.

We went up to Panther Meadows on Mt Shasta and it was/is simply amazing. It's so calm and peaceful. One of the best places to go in my opinion. Shasta is known for it's other worldly experiences. Many have claimed they've seen aliens and I don't doubt that's possible. The pic below is Mt Shasta from a distance.


There are also claims that when the clouds gather over the mountain they are sometimes hiding spaceships. That is shown in this picture.


So now you have it the strangest place I've ever visited. Provided of course you don't think San Fran is strange (which it is but not quite the same).

Zits

I HATE those zits that are under the surface that refuse to come up and let you get rid of them but they are so painful you don't even have to touch them for them to hurt.

The Bureaucratic process of replacing an empty mind with a closed one.

Dear church going people of Marshfield MO,

The news that started this rant

Why oh why do you have to make a fuss about stupid things? What is the point of petitioning a store to remove alcohol from it's shelves? Do you believe that by walking into the store you will be drawn to the isle with beer, somehow forced beyond your will to pick up a 6-pack, put it in your cart, purchase it, and then go home and consume it when you don't truly want to? No? That's not what you expect? Then why ask a store to take it off it's shelves when there are those that willingly choose to purchase and consume it?

God gave us all free will, the ability to chose for ourselves. What makes you so high and mighty that you need to take from us our GOD GIVEN RIGHT to make a choice? When did you surpass the knowledge of the Almighty? Please tell me when you were given power by the Alpha and Omega to take from His children the ability to make choices in our lives.

Now some may think that perhaps I am going a bit overboard. After all this is just one store in one town in one state....right now.

My fear is these are the same people who want to ban books from the library because they don't agree with the contents. After all if they can't stop themselves from buying the alcohol they don't want to drink how will they stop themselves from reading books they don't agree with? There are classics that have been banned from the libraries. Books like I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou, Blubber by Judy Blume, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwell, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. These have all been banned at some point or another. Simply because someone out there has a problem with some of the content and they want to take away the right others have to chose for themselves what they want to read and how they want to think.
“[I]t's not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read. And all due to the fear of censorship. As always, young readers will be the real losers.” — Judy Blume

These are the people who think that gay marriage will somehow destroy families. I'm sorry but how is providing gays (you know those people who don't sleep with the opposite sex anyway) the right to have a civil union in any way going to destroy families? They aren't going to have kids anyway, or they will adopt or have surrogate parents. Which they are able to do now but they don't have the support of the law. If a couple has been together for 25 years and one of them ends up, God forbid, in a coma and they aren't married the parents of the partner in the coma can refuse to let the other half even SEE them in the hospital. The person they have been in love with and living with for 25 years is shoved out of the hospital unceremoniously with no legal recourse simply because the law (and church goers) think that somehow this couple is going to ruin families. The parents of the half that's in a coma can make the decision to pull the plug without ever giving their partner the chance to say goodbye. Would ANY married person allow someone to pull the plug on their spouse without the option to say goodbye?

My main issue is these are baby steps. Our President has taken steps to push abstinence only instead of teaching the kids in school about safe sex. Yes abstinence is good IMO for those who aren't mature enough to make a real decision but just teaching abstinence isn't going to do any long term good. Child and teen pregnancies are going up. Girls are 6 times more likely to give blow jobs now and 4 times more likely to do anal. Let me tell you, there aren't many guys out there that will complain with those options.

When is it going to stop. When only books must be approved by a government/church appointed committee. When they confirm our fragile minds are capable of reading them without forming our own thoughts? When they ban abortion again? They are already taking baby steps there because after all if they can ban partial birth abortion it's just baby steps backwards for all of it. When they decide that this separation of church and state is just silly, after all if England can have a Church why can't America. And what about this whole immigrant issue. I mean I'll be damned if the country founded on immigrants is gonna let anymore in. Why that's just silly. This is America only Americans should live here. You know those white people who look "normal". After all differences just aren't to be tolerated. That's not what our country was founded on. We need to be good strong church going people with no choice in the matter...right?

Pizza

So last night I had a pizza, not so helpful in the whole losing weight thing. I did really well during the day. I snacked but all healthy, a banana, a granola bar. Then at home I got upset and to sooth my feelings I went and got pizza for dinner along with a soda. I knew while doing it that I shouldn't. That it would hinder me not help me but that didn't stop me. *sighs* I regret it today. I really lack will power. I need to work on that. But today is another day and a new beginning and hopefully I will do better. I have a healthy lunch I had a good breffust. Today I will do well.

On another note I saw La Vie en Rose this weekend. It is a French film about the life of Edith Piaf. An amazing French singer. She was accepted as the country's greatest pop singer. She lived such a hard life. And the actress who played her, Marion Cotillard, was abos-fucking-lutly amazing. She played the woman from about the age of 16 till she passed away in her late 40's. She's up for an Oscar because of it. The actual singer has such an amazing voice. And such a hard life. It's one of those stories where you can't help but wonder if life would have turned out the same, if she would have become the singer she was if she had had an easier childhood.

positive note

I turned down Burger King tonight even though I want salty foods and have a hard time doing so I did it. I had a sammich and a banana instead. go me!

The woman who grew too fat

Hi, that would be me. I have regained all the weight I lost in '06. Such a depressing thought and feeling. I really really don't like being this way. My husband would say so change it. But as anyone who has ever had weight to lose it's not that simple. Goddess knows I wish it was.
I read an article recently about a woman who was a writer for a magazine, no I have no idea which. Anyway she started a blog about her weight loss. She said that was the biggest motivation for her. That knowing people out there were reading up on her weight loss and commenting on how good or bad she was doing. Even her co-workers knew about it (because it was for the magazine). She said it was good and bad having co-workers come up and comment about her weight loss to her face.
So anyway long story short..ha! (my husband would tell you that just doesn't happen when I'm talking, I ramble) I am going to try her method, along with the D word and exercise (exorsize? ya know like exorcism. :D ).
I got home today changed, put my dog on her leash and went for a 30 min walk. Now I have been exorsizing recently (everyday last week to be specific), my household recently bought a machine but I needed to get out of the house today. It's starting to stay light longer so I can do it, at least on the warmer days.
I ate a bunch of really bad for you food today though, my excuse is that I'm ragging (sorry I know a bit to much tmi but hey it's my blog I'm allowed). But really I have lost what little will power I had. So I have to try and gain it back. And I guess I'll do it little by little. Perhaps I'll blog when I have the desire to eat something I shouldn't....so I should be on her about 10+ times a day. But hey at least it will force me to be honest and public about it.
Wish me luck I guess cause hopefully I'll become the woman who grew just right soon enough.

hurt feelings

It's amazing to find that someone who you haven't seen in a year can still reduce you to tears. I found out yesterday from my husband that a former friend of mine was more comfortable sharing her life and problems with him than with me. This is a girl who I used to consider my best friend in the entire world there is nothing that I wouldn't have told her. And I once thought she felt the same about me. And then it comes out that no she didn't. She couldn't trust me with her family secrets but she could trust my husband whom she was close friends with for about oh...3ish years. Apparently that trumps the 18 years that we were supposedly best friends.
I don't even know why this still hurts me considering we haven't been friends for almost a year now. My husband is a good man and he's still kept his word to her and kept her secrets. And honestly it wasn't not knowing what they were but the fact that she just flat out didn't trust me. That's what hurt. This woman...someone who was supposed to be my friend, my sister. The girl who grew up with me. We were going to go to college together. I was her maid of honor. She was my unofficial matron of honor. I hosted her baby shower. How do you have a relationship like that and still not trust the person? I'm not saying I need to know all her family's closet skeletons. It just hurts to find that when she needed to talk to someone she went to my husband, not even another life long friend (I know she has/had 2 or 3 besides me). If it is so painful so secret how can you share it with someone you've only known 4 years but not the person that has grown up with you and shared so much with you?
What did I ever do to make her not trust me. What happened that a relationship like that can end so suddenly with no real rhyme or reason.
I don't think about her often but it's shocking, or maybe not considering how I felt about our past, about how painful it can still be to know what she thought about me and how she felt about me.

So this is what it's like...

I will warn you, gentle reader, that this is going to be a very whiny post and I'm quite aware that once I get over my little pity party I will see just how silly I am being but until then I feel quite justified in my feelings so you get to read about my pity party. That being said if you don't want to read this now that you've gotten past the warning I really don't give a shit.

So this is what it's like to realize that the people you thought were friends to both you and your husband are largely just his friends....if that. People that came to birthday parties and get togethers to pay on the Wii are unable to make it to a party billed as slightly different. While we likely still would have played the Wii (and those that do make it will still play) the invites went out a bit differently. For one they were hand made by yours truly. I put thought and effort into them in hopes that people would like them. It wasn't a by word of mouth party it was a real invite with an RSVP. Which by the way only one person RSVPed (Thanks Greg). The rest just ignored the request of an answer. A big fat screw you! Why thank you. I'm always glad to see that no one gives a flying fuck about me. *big sarcastic grin* My husband had a birthday party a mere 7 months ago and the same people were invited save for I think one couple. I think everyone invited was in attendance.

Now I do realize that a birthday party is a story of a different color and that people may feel the need/desire to go to a birthday party rather than one for no real reason however the same people were also invited to MY birthday dinner and a handful of invitees attended. Not that those that came are unappreciated I love the people that came to my dinner I'm glad they came and I enjoyed their presence but it just sucks NOW that out of the 20+ people invited to my party I believe a grand total of 6 are coming and 2 of those also made other plans that night and thus will be here for an hour...maybe two. I know I'm not the end all be all of people or parties but damnit it would have been nice if you know a few more had come.

Ok I think I'm done spewing my bile onto the intarwebz.

driving

I'm coming home from buying a book and I'm in the center lane to turn onto my street. There is a car in front of me and a car on my street assumably waiting to turn onto the main street I'm currently in the middle of. Now one would again assume that when you turn onto a street from the middle of the main road you aren't going to be stopping but will continue on at least until there is a place to turn correct? You normally wouldn't stop as soon as you turn onto the road right next to the car that is waiting to turn off of the same road so that you can hand something out your damn window to the person in the other car! Well that is what happened to me today. I had to swerve to avoid hitting the idiot that stopped in the middle of the road when she turned onto my street. I honked my horn at her before pulling into my driveway. Now as I'm getting out of my car she is using the driveway across the street from me to turn around. She only pulled onto my street to pass something out her window to the idiot in the other car. And she took the time to yell out her window at me that I needed to get off my phone and learn to drive...because apparently it is very normal for her to STOP WHERE THE STREETS CONNECT!!!! So I lowered myself to her standards and told her to go to hell before walking into my house.

But on a good note the book I bought was very good I enjoyed it lots even though my friend didn't. She was sad about one point that, for her, undid the good point that happened.

random chatter

Not really sure what to say but I want to write something. They say you can become a better writer simply by writing every day. It doesn't have to be a novel but so long as you write you are improving your skills. I doubt they meant writing posts on message boards. Though I'm not sure a blog is much better after all isn't it just a message board that no one really responds to? :D No I suppose not I guess it's more like an online journal that all the world can read. Does anyone read this out of the few friends and family that I've given the link to? Heck I doubt they even read it anymore. As scarcely as I write anything. I had I think a grand total of seven posts on here last year. Simply amazing. I posted more on myspace I guess because I know more of my friends look there. Which is better? Neither probably. Some people hate myspace. I don't think it's something to be hated. Rather something to be careful with. Some people shouldn't use it. Some use it for bad others are just simply too clueless. I use it because I talk to my nieces more on there than in any other medium. Perhaps that should change too. Seems weird to call out of the blue after never calling them before. But I probably should. I love them. I miss them. My family and friends are the reason I wish I was back in TX but then I don't really want to be in TX I just want to be closer to my loved ones. Not that I don't have them out here in MO. I've met some great people, I've met some not so great. But that is life isn't it? We meet the good the bad and deal with it all. I think that's all for tonight. I'm getting tired and my eyes are tired and I want to take out my contacts and crawl into bed. My husband will be there soon and that is a good thing. ;)

2007 in summery

So '07 has ended and what has happened in our part of the world this year? Well here it is in no particular order.
My brother and sister in law moved out and into their own house on the other side of town. We see them less but the visits are happier so there is much rejoicing.
My house mate got a new job that she loves and is no longer in retail.
I got a new job that I love and am no longer in retail.
My husband got a new job he can live with and is no longer in retail.
My brother in law got a new job and then got 2 or was it 3 promotions. And is no longer in retail. Goodbye retail hell may you rot for all eternity.
My sister in law got a promotion making it full across the board that all Missouri clan members either got new jobs or promotions last year. Hers was the last but I told her it had to happen as she would be the only one left out if it didn't.
We have acquired a new dog in the house. Found him wondering around outside the house the night before Thanksgiving. Looked for his family for about 2 weeks including calling the humane society to see if anyone had reported a lost dog. No one had so we have adopted him into the house. He's a white husky and his name is London. He's calmer than Lacey and even V.
My husband, brother and sister in law, and I made a trip out to Cali for husband and BIL's grandmothers 80th b-day celebration. Got to see the family out there and play with a baby cousin.
Husband and I celebrated our second anniversary. And this year marks 8 years that we've put up with each other. He has recently started saying that I tricked him into loving me and that I need to inform everyone of this fact. I don't know of an easier way than to put it on the net for all to see. Happy husband? :D
We decked the halls nicely for Christmas and have to leave them up till some certain members of the family make their way out here so we can celebrate one last time.
I think that covers the main points. I hope you all had a tremendous New Years Eve. I have a feeling this year is going to be a great one.
Love, luck, and happiness to everyone!

Reflection aka found an old journal

So I was cleaning up my desk today I'll pause a moment to let you recover from the shock.....done? Ok.

So I was cleaning and I found my old journal. The one I started the day I moved into college. Damn was I stupid/young/silly/a twit. Makes me wonder though. I thought then that I was smarter than I was so does that mean in 8 years when I read these blogs or any journal entries I make now I'll realize exactly how unsmart I am now. My husband would probably say yes.

I know now that I'm not as smart as I thought I was then. Understand that? Good. I did grow a lot then and my journal shows it but it also shows me just how much growth I still had to go.

In some ways I've changed a bunch. I think I understand people a bit more. I know I understand myself much more. But at the same time I am still that 18/19 year old that is scared and confused and wishes she understood who she was better.

So with age do you ever start to understand yourself more or do you just realize that you'll never fully know even yourself and that's ok. To live your entire life learning who you are and what you want. Which is better to be sure of who you are, what you have, and where you are going for as long as possible. Or to discover yourself through your travels, experiences, life?

To everyone I hope you have a fantastic New Year. If you know who/what/and where or if you are still trying to figure it all out enjoy this next year. Live more, love more, laugh more, fuck more, cry more, enjoy more!
