Grudges Are Stupid . . .

‘specially when the person you beefin’ with ain’t even studyin you (this entire sentence is hood – welcome to my world!)

I mean I walked up in the place, I was going to say hello and sit down.  But I decided to hug this one girl and was like I need to hug all 3 of these women, even the one I had “beef” with.

The entire time I was so pissed at her and yesterday she was talking to me like it was all good.  I felt so stupid! Even if it was a front on her part, we couldn’t be in too much of a beef if we can hold a conversation.  It’s a big WHATEVA.

I’m way too grown to be in an underground beef with someone.  I’m over here huffin and puffin and cursing her out and rollin my eyes every time she says 3 words and she over there smiling and living life not concerned about me.

I’m so over grudges! They are stupid!

 

My Visit to the Allergist

Have you ever gotten a shot in your arse?!?!

I did! *rolls eyes*

My allergist gave me a shot on my behind to control my horrible allergies.

He also took a lot of blood.

Oh yeah, and I took an allergy test to determine what I am allergic to.

Yea, I did not expect all of that! I just thought we would consult. LOL!

I love my doctor though, he’s very informative and he make sure that I understood everything.

I took the environmental allergy test.  When I took the test before (with a different doctor) it was like a scratch test.  This doctor actually injects you with the allergen to determine your reaction – more accurate testing.

I absolutely hate needles.  Can you imagine getting poked 20+ times?!?! And then drawing crazy amounts of blood and getting a shot on your arse! All on the same visit!!!!! LOL!

The purpose of my visit was to determine the best way to deal with my allergies.  I am also a eczema sufferer which is inextricably linked to my allergies.

I’m tired of nasal congestion, eczema, itchy, watery eyes, sneezing and the host of things.  I want to be normal! *cries in hand*

So I am hopeful that my doctor will be able to get me on the path to dealing with my allergies.

I am not a big medication person so I am looking for more holistic ways to deal with my allergies.  I know that some people get allergy shots – uhm, we’ll cross that bridge if need be.

On Monday, I will take the food allergy test.  I am not looking forward to that.  But I have told myself that I will take it serious this time and if I need to stop eating certain things . . . I will.

Back to Work

Tomorrow I’m going back to work. Ugghh.

I really haven’t gotten off of the holiday break so I am trying to rewire my mind.

I need to get back into the flow of work – hearings, client appointments, depositions, and trials.

I love my job but I didn’t know how overworked I was. They messed around and made me not work (because of the holidays) and now I have to get back in the groove of working.

So tomorrow here I come! I’m going to get in make it happen!

I’m going to the office early, get prepared for the rest of the week and finish off strong.

My first week of 2012

Suxs huge balls

I’ve been sick since tuesday january 3. I thought it was the flu but it’s a bacterial infection.

High fever, aching muscles, migraine, weakness, congestion. . .

I’m a huge mess :(

If the first week of the New Year determines how my year will be, I’m not in good shape. Lol!
But I don’t believe that! :)

This year is going to be fabulous.

My doctor put me on a large dose of antibiotics . . . horse pills.

I was told to stay in bed until Tuesday, so I’ll return Wednesday (feeling 100%).

So I’m hanging in their. I finally was able to eat solid food. I’ve lost 10 pounds, I look a hot mess.
I really thought I was going to die. I tried to drive myself to the hospital and had to turn home because I was so weak that I couldn’t drive. Thank God I wasn’t to far from home. I start to get dizzy spells if I walk to far – its from my lack of appetite.

But I drank a small smoothie from Smoothie King earlier and forced myself to eat a quarter of a tuna sandwich for dinner.

I’m drinking lots of fluids. I’m going to beat this in no time.

As much I want 2012 to be painless, joyful, and prosperous, this first week has shown me that I am not immune to . . . Life.

This illness won’t determine how my year will be rather my fight will set the right tone for this year. I’m determined to fight every obstacle life throws at me.

Yelp Update

Guess what?!

A restaurant I reviewed on Yelp contacted me! They said they were sorry for my experience and they wanted me to call their GM.

Free dinner, I expect.

To be quite honest my review wasn’t negative at all. I just said I hated the dish I ordered and I would come back and order something else.

So I am quite impressed with a restaurant that wants their dining experience to be exceptional! So much so, that they aren’t pleased if everything is great but one aspect fails. This is the epitome of excellent customer service!

I’ll give the GM a call tomorrow and I’ll update you further.

I told y’all reviews/letters do work!

I’m Yelping

I’ve decided to start a yelp.  Today I was try find a good dentist but no one had any reviews.  I thought about how easy it would be to choose a dentist if people wrote about their experiences.  So that’s why I am yelping. One to help those businesses that value customer service and to force those business who don’t value customer, to do so.

I am learning that business don’t take you serious until you start to write letters and reviews on their business.  I’ve played nice for too long.  This year I will not let another business rape me (yea, it is a strong word but that’s what they do to us) without me writing a review but more importantly a letter.

Water Month

Every month for 2012, I am going to challenge myself with a task.

This month I want to focus on drinking more water. I decided to join the challenge with a Youtuber named MsRosieVelt. It started yesterday but I consumed soda so I decided to have a fresh start today ;) . Don’t judge me. I want to see what changes in my health and physical appearance will take place as a result of consuming only water.

This challenge is easier to do while at work because the only free beverage is water. At home soda is readily available. So it becomes more difficult for me when I come home. This challenge is a water only challenge. No soda! No juice! No coffe! No tea! I have to drink 8, 8 ounces of water. I’ll periodically blog about my progress. Will you join me?

Holiday Returns

So I spent a large sum of money on some jewelry. I looked at it yesterday and decided to return those items. They are nice but I know that money is better saved for a rainy day. I hate being so impulsive. Ewww! I thought I wanted one or two . . . I ended up buying 4 bracelets. That’s cray! LOL!

And then the sales associate had me going, fueling my fire, telling me how I could pass it down to my children. She had me feasting out of her hands. LOL!

But I do want to leave things for my children, like a house or financing their college education. And that starts now. I need to  do away with impulsive shopping and really be smart about what I buy and how much of it I buy.

Have you made any returns? If yes, what and why?

Peace,
TT

Merry Christmas

Just wanted to wish all of my readers and stopperbyers a Merry Christmas.  Be Blessed!

Work Drama

I like to think of myself as very nice and fun to be around.

I joke with everybody.

I also tend to be attracted to hanging around support staff versus those in my position.

Yesterday, I was confronted with some drama.

I hate drama! Especially when it’s totally unexpected.

I could see if I was gossiping or had beef but to know I did none of that and I still got drama, kills my soul.

I was very upset when the person said that I was disrespectful and inconsiderate because I followed through.  I did what I was supposed to do but they didn’t want to recognize that because they didn’t do what they were supposed to do, they didn’t follow through.

I had some choice words and I felt myself getting louder and louder – so I decided to leave.

I was fuming out the ears.

I told myself that all is forgiven.  But all is not forgotten.

I truly believe in restitution.

When you do someone wrong, you need to apologize.

I saw here today, and she give this fake ass smile and says, “Hello!! Nice dress.”

I reluctantly mumbled, “thank you.”

I am not going to be smiling in your face and pretending everything is all good when I know it aint.

For you to come at me like that when seconds ago we were laughing.  I was cracking jokes and we were having a merry ol time.

And then the entire mood changed, and I was getting yelled at (in front of everybody) and I was told that I was basically a brat.

Even if she apologizes, I will never go back to cracking jokes and being all friendly with her because I feel like our relationship wasn’t genuine.

I will forever be cordial and respectful of her and everyone else, but the line has been drawn.  We good but we aint great – like we use to be.

Peace in the Workplace Middle East
