Freaky Friday - the 13th

 Here it is, 5:10 pm on Friday the 13th and I've come through the work day relatively unscathed.   Although there was that one phone call to an inmate's wife that could be technically classified as a smackdown, but I think she'll live.  Hehehehe

It's been a funky energy kind of week and I'm not sure how to feel about it; I'm still processing it in my mind.  

I was meditating last week after a particularly exhausting workout at the gym.  I was totally in my Zen zone.  It's so amazing to me the things that pop in and out of my mind when I clear my headspace.   A recurring theme was: Love, Loyalty and Trust...and memories of my Mom and Dad (always heartwarming and reassuring!) 

I am a very trusting individual.  I take people at their word until I have reason not to.  I'm not one to be paranoid or lose sleep over peoples alternative motives.  I have a strong circle of friends that I rely on, and can always trust to be straight shooters with me.  But occasionally something happens that shakes my trust tree a tad bit and makes me go "hmmmmm" and wonder "why".   Nothing drastic and nothing that directly affects me....but a bit disconcerning nonetheless.

Then last night, a woman in her early 70's, when on a rampage and acted like a total ass all because the music in the gym was "too loud" for  her.  Instead of addressing the matter like an adult, she storms out, slams the door and yells out to "cancel her membership"   Okkaaayyyy then.   Not sure what caused her to unhinge but it couldn't have been alllll  about the volume of the music!  I've known her for 16 years.  Although she can be a bit eccentric and boisterous, I've never known her to act like that.   I was taken aback. No one, no matter the age, has the right to act like she did.   I felt soooo sorry for the staff member that was involved.   She criticizes  others for being childish....well sweetheart, look in the mirror!  Egads! 

This weekend is fairly low key.   I have yoga class in the morning, followed by lunch with two very lovely, strong, independent friends of mine (the ones I went camping with in August).  Then nothing else other than working out and getting my nephew Blaine to work on Sunday.   Oh, and some domestic diva stuff....which I can honestly say I'd rather not do!  LOL

Tonight is totally a wine and Netflix night!!  

Peace Out, Blogstalkers!  :)

Yep Sherry - me too tonight (wine + Netflix).

Binging on more Homeland Netflix episodes this evening, along with a one hour TV interruption to view the new season episode premier of The Black List (which follows all the previous episodes of that series that I also have been binge watching on Netflix).

Have a great weekend and Happy Friday the 13th.

Welcome to the Shit Show!

 I'm trying not to breaking one of my hard and fast rules - do not  talk politics or religion .  But for the love of all things holy, I cannot not   comment on the total shit show of last nights presidential debate.     America, we're screwed!     I want the chance to write in a candidate.  I think anyone would be a better option than the two we have right now.  UGGGHHHH!   I'm soooooo tired of the bickering . right vs. left.  I'm tired of the media, I'm tired of black lives matter (ALL LIVES MATTER, shit heads!), cop kiilings, riots and the disrespect and downright hatred  of the flag, of our Country!   I'm scared for everyone concerned.  I feel  the anger, the despair, the lack of consideration and respect - not only for the country -but for humanity .   I heard Savanna Guthrie , NBC Today Show, say that Social Media was the cesspool of society."   I couldn't have said it bet...

Merry Christmas!

For Christmas 2022, I had promised Blaine that I would take him to Million (aka Michael) and get his UJ (University of Jamestown) tattoo recolored.  Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and I couldn't fulfill my promise to him. Christmas 2023 I was  subtly  reminded that I owed him his gift from last year!  He forgets  to brush his teeth or clean his apartment but gosh darn he sure remembers if it's something he wants!  Michael was all about making it look like new again and hooked us up with an appointment yesterday.   What a day!!! We started out with coffee and egg McMuffins and plenty of conversation as we rolled down the interstate! I think his mouth was going faster than we were traveling! We covered so man y topics! We laughed a lot but cried a bit too as we remembered the farm and grandpa and grandma. After the tattoo, we went ro Scheels for a few more Christmas gifts.. a swim bag for his Special Olympics swimming gea...

A Repeat...

Once in a while I receive a request to "repeat" a blog post. This is one of the repeat posts that I hope you all enjoy the 2nd time around. It was originally posted in May of 2008. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Greetings Everyone, I received an email about 9 years ago from a far-away-friend that touched me to the core. It was entitled "Life's Lessons." I printed it out and tucked it away to read when I needed some inspiration. I ran across it awhile ago and, not surprisingly, it touched me as much now as it did then. So, to my friend Lee - wherever you may be, thank you for sending me something so beautiful and for thinking of me. Be well My friend. Life's Lessons Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, they serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be; your ...
