Wow!

What a day. Today I learned a valuable lesson.  It turns out, you can be kind and generous to someone everyday and that is not enough.  Apparently, you can do the right thing most of the time and those who don't will find some way to attack you for doing what you are supposed to do.  It also turns out that people you offer respect to often don't deserve it and are not willing to reciprocate it even if you do deserve it!  I am learning slowly but surely in life that being a good, kind, generous person often blows up in your face. It may not even be worth it to put forth the effort.  maybe I would be better off if I was a mean spirited and negative, hateful, spiteful person too...... but I am not, so I will continue to be kind and generous and do the right thing (or at least what I think is the right thing) despite what others do.  And if it blows up in my face then it does, but I can rest easy knowing no matter what, I did what was right.  No matter how anyone else may react or behave, I did what was right.  Besides, I believe these people eventually get what they deserve. Maybe it is not my job to give them consequences for their actions or hold them accountable.  Someday they'll get back what they have given. You reap what you sow people...... it may take time, but you always do!!!  SO, I will not be hurt by spiteful, mean actions, instead I will continue to shower them with kindness until they either see the cruelty in their actions or get what they deserve!!!  Mean People BE WARE!!!!

What's New

Let's see, what's new?

1.  I am worn out.... I am definitely going to be ready for retirement at the end of this year. I constantly counting down to Friday or Fall Break or Thanksgiving.... I am just always counting down.  

2. I made a super yummy dinner tonight. I actually even impressed myself. I made my version of Mexican Lasagna and it was the bomb!!!  I will make it again for sure!!

3.  I am ready for the long weekend!!  We are going to watch MTSU play the season opener in South Carolina, Against Clemson. I cannot believe it is already football season!! I am super psyched!!!  I think we will have a blast.  GO BLUE!!!

4.  I have the guy coming for my carpet measurement whenever we managed to align our schedules... maybe Friday while Brent is golfing??  We'll see. I am ready to get it all scheduled and done ASAP.  It is almost fall break... so I guess it will be done soon.  I think my next project after that (maybe fall break) is going to be to wallpaper my Laundry room. I just love a wallpapered laundry room.... I think that would make me most happy.  

hmmmm..... that's all I've got for now.... more soon, I Promise!!
