You and I haven’t visited in quite some time.  I used to come to you a very sad and lonely and dejected girl.  Now I come full of plans, ideas and music. I come to you wanting to steal a few more minutes to read blogs, read books, listen to new tunes.
3 a.m., I just went down the hall and stood over my husband.  He’s quite sweet at night, sprawled out like a little boy.  While my heart still has pangs and missings for my true little boy…..I know that life is better now.  The now is better because I am no longer suicidal and sad and full of despair.  I decided I wanted to go to college…and so I did.  I graduate soon. I decided I wanted a house and so it was. I decided I wanted this chair facing the window towards the back yard and so it was.
3 a.m. this makes no sense to anyone but me….thanks for allowing me to visit without pain….it still amazes me.
Love,
Me
P.S. HEY 3 a.m. bless my little boy across town….I miss him.

I’m a big believer in Karma. Remember Mr. Spamfuck, my former landlord who wanted to sell me his son’s house and therefore raised our rent the minute we balked at the high price of his son’s house?
Well…that house we leased for 1 year and fell in love with and were told we could buy for a mere $315,000 is now on the market for a still overpriced $169,900. Zillow says it’s worth a bit less perhaps. I have to laugh now. The landlord’s sons yellow house I rather liked….still hasn’t sold either.
Don’t remember what I’m referring to…..check old blog entry here
And here is Mr. Spamchuck’s house currently on the market for a whopping $145,500 less a year later. And irony of all irony’s….Skip is trying to sell it for him.
I love my house…I’m grateful that it all worked out for us. I truly am. I held out for something that fit our financial plan and felt right when I walked in. Felt right as in on all levels. Right space, etc. I walked into my current house and knew it was right for us. I am merely pointing out that Karma exists because these people treated us rather poorly. In the past few years each and every time someone treats me bad I just sit back and say little to nothing because Karma has a way of working things out.
Rick also bought this from Craig’s list for me for my birthday (at my request) and got a great deal. It was a birthday gift from Rick. Our TV doesn’t fit but we’re in the market for a smaller flat screen anyway. I had this mammoth TV when Keith was 4 years old. I just can’t bring myself to ditch something that’s been working all those years without a glitch. I also won it in the Big Divorce of ’03 and the ex got the little crap TV that promptly broke while moving. (ha..Karma again!) This is in the library.

This room used to have this little TV stand that Rick brought home for free…it worked for the purpose but had little to no storage and I was in desparate need of some more storage for so many things without a home. Like that printer we never really use, etc. I hate the way the big TV covers up that window…but that window faces the back patio…..and its never open anyway. Not blocking a great view…so to speak. The books are all hanging on the wall still…not stacked on top like it appears.

Most often my classmates are not always all that smart and since everyone thinks they can get a Masters…..sometimes people enroll and this turns out to be not true for certain enrollee’s. One of my team classmates posted this sentence today in our joint learning forum.
“…that may be true I just tend to over think and overdue things at time and sense I’m seeking an A I was willing to do so”
He wanted to put together a chart that was not required of the assignment. Since when do we add more work to what we’re meant to do? I find school to be on the mark. The professor gives you an assignment you do what the professor wants of you, you get an A. You add to it or interpret the assignment you’re own way…and it is always a disaster. College is very much about following the rules of the boss and the teacher is always boss.
This dude can’t even properly use his spell check. (which is a free feature of the system) SENCE I think he’s stupid I’m doing the assignment as stated, not with a chart or his stupid bullshit ideas….ie: my own “A†way….SINCE I do get A’s. (oh check me with my big headedness…..lol….but SINCE I can spell…I overruled him!)
p.s. I think he meant “over do” not “overdue” too…and “times not time”…gahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! Fucktard.

From an email I got today from my longtime friend TonyMacaroni.
He’s starting his own business in the line of education (something I know lots about) and something that has the potential to take off. I think it’s a great business idea and plan myself. His email ….
I’ll need a ghostwriter. I know you are awesome with writing and blogging, so you are actually the PERFECT person to do this for me. For now, I am trying to write articles myself. I think I need to since I’m not all that busy yet, and it’s just part of running my own business as an entrepreneur. But, if you would wanna write a couple of articles that I could post on my Blog maybe, for now, as a favor, that would be awesome. I would credit you fully as a colleague and your name and email, but also as associated with my website too.
Copywriting here I come.
Good thing he doesn’t realize just how lazy I am with updating my own blog..hahahaha….
