I Wanna Be a Walmart Greeter

05.30.2008

No really…

Those folks have all the fun.

I went to Walmart this morning to get some spackle to cover up the holes from the flat panels…

I had just left the gym, so I was super tired… and not really feeling having to stand in any type of line.

I was glad that it was pretty much empty. So empty, they were having a team meeting in one of the aisles.

By the time I found the spackle and made my way to the counter, I was even more tired than when I first walked in…

But the lady at the door…whipped around and said, “Thank you for shopping at Walmart! Have a great day today! Come back soon!”…

It was almost out of one of those “Andy Griffith” reruns Incog likes to watch…

I had to look behind me to see if she was talkin to me…

But obviously…since the store was empty… it was meant for me.

Well alright now!

They don’t do that at Tarje’.

Have a good weekend, yall! Thank you for stopping by my website! Ya’ll come back now ya hear!?

Driven and Relentless

05.29.2008

Have you ever set a goal so high, you never know if you’ll actually reach it?

A goal so high, that even when you talk about people think that you’re trippin’ or maybe even…as high as that goal?

I remember when I was little…I used to ask my mother a question about 50-11 times until she gave me my desired result, or until I had figured out an alternative that was equally pleasing. If asking face to face didnt work, I was resigned to sliding notes casually under the bathroom door, leaving notes in her purse…under her pillow…on her bedroom door…

I was relentless.

I hope that I can continue to be that way in business…and in life in general…

Kierra “Kiki” Sheard

I know I’ve said to you over and over
I’m going to get it together sooner or later.
You told me I had to do something so when I said I’ll do better. (oo yeah)
And you even said if you do this I’ll do that.
And I told you I was moving on and I was right back in my situation which led me to complications.

Oooh I know, I know.

Chorus:
I know. I know. I made a promise. It may have seemed like jiberish. Please hear this. Lord, I’m relentless.

(O Lord Please.)
Hear this. (Please)
Hear this. (Please)
Hear this. (oh Please)
Oh Hear this.
Hear this. (Yeah)
Lord, I’m relentless.

I’ve even said, “Please, never leave me!”
And I meant that seriously, Lord, accept my plea. (Yeah)
Lord, I’m crying out to you. (oooh)
Because without you I dont know what I would doooo.
And I know.

Chorus

Lord I’m sorry for
For the things that I’ve done
For the disappointments
And for my disobedience
Ooh I’m sorry Lord.
Oh Lord
Please forgive me
Never leave me
Cause I made mistakes and I know that you’re the only way.

And I know.

Chorus.

The Great Retreat

05.27.2008

I’ve kind of retreated a little bit this past weekend…and it seems to be just what I needed.

My main focus for the last few days has been focusing on me…and what I want and need and where I need to be.

Part of my rehab was purchasing a few items for myself…

I ditched my tongue ring…or I guess you could say that I swapped it for something else more…permanent.

I think that’s it for this week…more exercise and water. One step at a time.

We took J to see Prince Caspian…it was really good. I purchased Juno over the weekend. Love that movie.

We found a new build-your-own frozen yogurt place across the street from Church. It’ll be the hotness once they get their credit card machine together. Think Pinkberry…but…better.

I hope that you all had a blessed weekend.

Thunderstorms and Tornadoes?

05.23.2008

Working.Working.
Who woulda thunk it. And who woulda thunk it would be RAINING!

OMG. California weather has been crazy the past few days…

It was hot as heck last week, and now this week, it’s raining and tornadoes? Really?

This weekend seems like a good weekend for movies and hot chocolate…non-fat of course.

Yummy.

I hope that you guys have a good weekend and that you’re not rained in!

Stay Blessed!
