Strange Things=My Everyday Happenings

(Via National Geographic)

This morning's events that totally changed the direction of what I wanted to write today.

• After realizing that my phone was not blowing up with emails, I checked my phone and due to a screw-up of mine or T-Mobile; my phone service got disconnected. I blame T-Mobile. So after I handled that quickly because I just had this feeling I needed to take care of that ASAP. I went my booty back to sleep.
• While I'm sleeping/lucid dreaming. I realize that I having the same dream over and over in a matter of minutes. That dream involves the HR lady from my former job telling me that she just could not let me get away and that she found me an opportunity working for the sister company doing exactly what I wanted to do in the first place.
• Meanwhile my disoriented self is still worried about my damn emails. So I wake up and start messing with my blackberry and somewhere in between there and going back to sleep I miss THE call!!!! 
• I finally get my butt up and check my voice mail and just like that I have a job offer that I interviewed for sometime last October.
• I call the lady back and just like that I have another job. No interview just come to go get the package so I can take my drug test on Monday.

 What's even crazier is that when I call my hubba to tell him the good news. He responds with an "I know" because he had a feeling yesterday that I would find something. I'm so elated right now. I'm going to leave you  with this quote:

"All that we are is the result of what we have thought."- Buddha

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words...No Really!

You know how you can look at something for so long and it begins to become something totally different from what you're looking at. The picture above is just part of scenery of my former place of employment. After years of looking at these damn coke machines I decided to take a picture simply because I didn't want to look at them anymore and to put the energy of optimism out in my environment. This was back in January and I don't miss these machines one bit.

So Yes! After almost 5 freaking years I finally quit and moved on to a place where I thought was perfect. Happy ending for me...ha! After a week of working at the place (which I shall not name due to respect), well actually after the second day. A deep rooted instinct told me "Ree, this is not the place for you." I can be a bit of a hard head at times due to pride. Who isn't?  So I decided to just ignore that feeling and try to learn the job the best I could. Thursday morning came and I just wasn't feeling it but I took my ass in there and by the end of the night I had my answer. I QUIT!!!! I emailed HR and my boss and told I was resigning from my position as of that day and I went to go pick up my check later that day. Yes, I quit in what is to be described as the toughest job market ever (I don't believe that hoopla), I never quit a job without giving a two weeks before. I got the balls to do it so I did it. It took me about a month or less to get that job so I am positive that I will find another one.

I not completely jobless either due to fact I went to ask if I could work one day for my old job. So I have 6 days out of the week to lolly gag around and job hunt and maybe finally give this blog the attention it deserves...maybe. I don't have anything to do so I probably will.

This is the back yard of my mum's house. I took this while peeping out of the blinds and thought it was cool because it reminded me of a setting you can find in a scary movie.

It's Finally Come...2011

2011 I've been waiting for you and so far 3 days in and you have not disappointed. From massive amounts of dead birds and fish to my new wave of consicousness I have a feeling this year can only get interesting. I'm looking forward to two big things this year:

• Moving in with my hubba finally
• New Job!!!!

Of course there's a few other miscellaneous big things I have planned up my sleeve which I will share later on in the year. Oh and not to forget my 365 project! This will be my first year doing one and hopefully I can commit to it because I have issues when it comes to committing to such things (ahem...this blog). I hope everyone is having a great 3 days into the new year so far!

Making Gravy Outta Grease

This ride called life takes you on ups and downs, quick stops and long stops and detours. I can't stand detours because they are so unexpected. You can plan something for ages and in a matter of seconds something can change your whole aspect on life and screw up your agenda. In a matter of two days I will know if this grand master plan I had before I've moved back in with my mom will come into affect or come crumbling down on my head. Yeah I know...that's life but the structural dynamic of my relationship is depending on this. So I'm hoping everything goes in my favor for once in my life.

My boyfriend would just die if I wanted to decorate kitchen like this. I love anything feminine, sweet, vintage and just colorful. I'm almost there to having my own place again. I'm so excited to decorate it the way I want to; well at least the bedroom and kitchen. I have a bunch of posts still in drafts. I'm trying to figure out what to do with them. A promise is a promise even if it's only to myself.

I'm Back and with a Super Awesome Plan

....I was really contemplating on just deleting this blog for two reasons: 1.) I'm too lazy to put work into it and 2.)I'm not sure blogging in the first place is the person I am. Over the past 6 months (wow very long time) I've moved back home with my mom to take care business and to plan a major career change. Some days have been a piece of cake while others have been shit but I'm hanging in there. I just realized today that I wanna turn this blogging thing into an idea I've had for a long time and to do that I have to put work into into it. In others words this is gonna be my side hustle while I find that perfect main hustle. Life is too short to be bored sitting behind some register counter serving unknown people who in truth I could care less about. I want to be happy to the point where I'm shitting rainbows and this plan is allows me to do that. I can't indulge in anymore than that it's a super awesome plan of mine but I can promise that I will post at least 4 days out of the weekday from now on. I'm excited for the things that are to come to me.
