Vacay in Full #amilikey

Image
      Yo yo, what's popping? Nah, who in the shenanigans is this persona? Not me, I was just trying to be playful as always. I know I am not consistent with my blogs in terms of posting on a weekly basis or something near to it, but when I finally get to it -- it's worth the read.      After all my life, I finally had a mini vacation all to myself, because of course I am single like a lonely pringle. Nonetheless, I did enjoy myself on this adventure. I was able to book a hotel for three straight nights in Brandon Florida. While the hotel had this amazing pool with a mini water cascade and sprinkler; I also found the facility for indoor skydiving nearby.      On my first night, I was super excited and went to the pool around 6pm I believe and swam for about an hour. I needed to get some dinner so I ventured out on foot to see what stores were nearby. As I surveyed the land, I spotted a Wendy's and a gas station-- ended up getting a 4 for 5 dol...

After the Storm #amilikey

 Greetings Bloggers!!!!  At this point, you already know what my deal is so just hit me up on Instagram for more up-to-date events. I am super grateful hurricane 🌀 Ian shifted from a direct impact on Tampa Bay, because I'll admit it we were not prepared.  In my humble opinion, Tampa Bay is a metropolitan area with a lot more apartment residents than home owners: which implies the population is at a higher risk rate for disaster recovery. Homeowners have the advantage of paying for homeowners insurance for damages, but most likely if apartment tenants can't afford a mortgage than clearly they don't have insurance on their household goods ( furniture, appliances, etc.) Structurally speaking there is also less resources to safe proof the building from hurricane winds, because apartment tenants aren't going to boarder up their windows with plywood.  Also, apartments don't have backup generators nor do they offer the same level of safety that a house can offer a family....

Beach Day ⛱ #amilikey

  Greetings Bloggers, I have been preoccupied for some time  now. These past few weeks away from my blog have been productive. Although the official date is two days away, I have been congratulated by my corporate colleagues and even received a decorate one year anniversary balloon 🎈 at work.     This goal was accomplished with a lot of hard work and personal sacrifice that only the Lord truly understands. I have endured harsh criticism from former employees who were never even qualified for their own position; yet, I pressed on until new people came in to relieve me of such constant annoyance with micromanagement. I've risen to learning new techniques and skills that I have executed to the best of my ability. I mention that to emphasize how valuable I am as an employee with versatility.       My reward to celebrate my workforce goal came with two consecutive days off of work as PTO. I planned one of those days as a beach day. It was a sunny...

The Unexpected Happened

      Hello Nobody!!! I have mentioned this before, but let me reiterate that based on my stats nobody cares about what I have to say or share on my humble blog. So, that actually motivated me to let it all out and speak even more openly. I know we are not to be lead by our emotions because it is not a wise thing to do. However, I am also not going to ignore or deny how I really feel inside. On that note let me provide a great example: at work I answer the phone all day as part of my assignment as a FOS in the medical field. Sometimes, people actually cordially ask me how are you? and I respond like a robot "good", because 1.) I can't actually tell a stranger how I am actually doing and deviate from the primary reason as to why they called the office (to seek information for work); 2.) I can't tell them I am actually working in pain because my wisdom tooth is coming out like a train and now I need oral surgery for extraction; 3.) Even if I shared that part it's no...

Today has nothing to do with a bunny, honey !!!

 Greetings Bloggers!!!     I am definitely past my bedtime at this moment. No, I am not a child, but I do believe in getting the minimum 6 hours and I do have an early start to my day. So with that in mind I just wanted to give my two cents about Easter Day.      Easter should be about remembering Jesus's death and resurrection alone. It should not be about the idiotic notion of a bunny laying or having eggs. Egg hunting is just another capitalist way to make more money while diluting the real meaning and representation of Easter Sunday. Jesus was a real person who died on the cross for you and me. He was a person, but not just a person; Jesus was a spiritual being in the form of a person. Everyone who has always wanted to deny his existence clearly could not have been more wrong, because even history remembers him.      I too am guilty as a former child of having participated in Easter egg hunt at church, because I didn't know any better. I ...

Dee N A mystery here I come

      Good Afternoon Beautiful bloggers and readers!!! I just want to apologize for keeping you waiting  anxiously for my new blog post. I know the few readers that take their time to read my posts are always so thrilled after I post. On Saturday evening, I laid down on my bed to watch some local TV (because I don't pay for cable ) and there was this very interesting documentary about DNA testing.      I have watched other episodes on this new technology called Genetic Genealogy on one of my favorite shows 20/20 on ABC network. Cece (the genetic genealogist) has been able to assist in cold cases to track down the criminals in recent years. Her work is just phenomenal in how much she dives into the family trees to track down the DNA links. It is such a reward to be able to link long lost relatives through DNA testing and I have been thinking about adding my DNA to the pool of databases in hopes I too might find my other half siblings.  ...

Progress is possible with one key

 Good Afternoon Bloggers,       I am pleased to come to you today with new motivation and inspiration. In January, I was able to achieve a goal I thought seemed almost impossible a few months back. All throughout my lifetime I had struggled with the labor force acquisition, and it wasn't until this past summer I acquired full-time employment once again in the medical arena I was seeking. So with that in mind, I successfully completed my 6 - months work anniversary that to me meant the world. Previously,  I had only been able to maintain my past jobs  for about three to four months due to unwavering circumstances.      I went to the local grocery store and bought me a big chocolate cake to celebrate my benchmark with my family. It has not been easy to maintain the motivation and drive to work at this one location for that long of a time, because let's be real (being short staffed is not the environment anyone wants to be a part of ever) o...
