The Building

To make Maggie feel like she could help I had her hand me a nail everytime I yelled out "NAIL" in my very best red-neck, dirty, man yell!

Fishing in Texas

While I was in Texas this past time my mom, Brennah and I went fishing together! The story is self-explanatory!

Time

Life seems like such a whirlwind. Everyday is prescheduled and categorized. The whole system would fall apart should I fall behind schedule at any point during the week. You might think that I am exaggerating (which I tend to do) but I really am not. I don't feel overwhelmed or like I have to much to do just that I always have something to do. Because of this I feel like every day flies by in a whirlwind. When I get pregnant and we start our family I will need to change my present circumstances.

But for now....bring on the tornado!

Words of Wisdom

"When the grass seems greener on the other side of the fence...fertilize your grass!"

Tired of Retail

I am sitting here at my desk, where I have been for the last eight hours, listening to three people complain about how long they have had to wait. Mind you, they called a few minutes ago demanding an appointment which I, in my very best receptionist voice, let them know that we could squeeze them in. The woman and her grandma had been here for ten minutes when the cousin/grandson came storming up the stairs where the following conversation ensued.

"They still haven't seen you?"
"No"
"B+**/-/s"
"I know"
"Do they know who you are? Bet they haven't ever had African royalty in their salon"

WHAT!!! How incredibly rude! Royalty schmoyalty... I don't care who you are. People of royal blood would never act like that. They should take Royalty Etiquette 101... I hear they are offering it a UGA right down the street.

The old lady even stood watching a stylist finish up with her last client while boring her beady little eyes into the back of the stylists head willing her to finish faster.

The boy, who has a grown out mohawk flopped to one side, threw up his hands with disgust and exclaimed "finally" when the "princess" was taken back.

Well, as pathetic as it is, at least I can vent on here instead of verbally expressing myself thus enabling the continuation of my job through the end of the day (and enabling the snobby "royalty" remain snobby unchecked)!

And They Wakeboarded Happily Ever After

For some reason I figured that as soon as I got up on a wakeboard I would be able to do some tricks. I tried a butterslide and you can watch the aftermath yourself!

Anniversary Plans

Doug and I are going on a cruise for our anniversary in September!

If you don't have something nice to say...

I have found that most of society is OUT TO CRUSH YOUR DREAMS!!!

Well, I might be exaggerating...a little.

In all seriousness, why do people insist on telling you why your plans will not work? Yesterday I was talking to some women about having children. I told them that I would like to have 4 or 5 and the immediate response is "you get back to me when you have had your first and lets see what tune you will be singing then." This happens all the time to me on many different subjects as I am sure that it has happened to you.

People always seem to want to tell me what I will and will not like. STOP TELLING ME WHAT I WANT!!!! That is why the phrase goes "I want..." NOT "what do you think I will like best?"

I seem to be angry as I write this but I am not. I am frustrated with individuals who think that they have the right to make others feel like their dreams are inferior or won't work. I am sad to say that I am sure that I have done this to others as well. We all need to watch what we say when we are listening to someones dreams... otherwise they will never share with us again!
