Day: September 19, 2008

Hey,

What a day I had to day. Lord Thank you for letting me see another one. Thank you for my sanity, Thank you for showing me how to deal with all the people you bring my way daily. Thank you for the 5 years at Walmart that you had to teach me how to deal with people and their many personalities and Spirits. I\’m a work * under construction* Someone said to me: \”stop letting people get under your skin\”. I have heard that voice over, and over, and over in my head, and that\’s what helped me to get through. There are things that push my button, but see now I recognize the foolishness and I\’ll cut it off there.

Today I wasn\’t feeling to well. I think I was running a temperature. I need some rest that\’s what that is. I will be getting some tonight. I need to go and iron my clothes for work, but heck I\’ll do it in the morning.

Today these 2 older white ladies came through my line. They had separate orders. The first lady\’s order came up to $2 and some change, after I told her the total, she was fumbling in her purse. So while she did that I decided to grab her 2 bags off the spinner and walk them around and put them in her basket. So when I put them in the cart, I looked up at her. She seemed to be mumbling something, so I said to her * ma\’am are you alright*? She said, I feel like I\’m going to faint. so I looked at her and something * God* told me to hold her hand. As soon as I grabbed her hand she FELL OUT! OMG She was a tall, but small framed lady, but she felt like dead weight. I called over a manager who was walking by, to help me get this lady, she was heavy. Yall know I wanted to cry right? But I had to boss my game up and be there for this lady. So we were hollering out * Code White*, it took 3 of us to keep this lady from falling and hitting the ground. Just as we all got a hold of her, she came back. My coworker got got her a chair, and we helped her to sit down. Her friend couldn\’t believe it. She said that they have been friends for 60 years. LOOK AT GOD! AINT THAT A BLESSING?. The EMS came and she didn\’t want to go to the hospital, yall know how older people are, shooo, young ones too. But she was the driver, ain\’t that something? So she agreed to go with the EMS, and we found out that the pharmacist is her son-n law. So that worked out perfectly. I hope that everything will be okay with her. They were so cool too. Let me tell you, my coworkers are the bomb!!! When something like that happens, every body stop drop and roll for out customers. It ain\’t even about being noisy, they went and got her a wet towel, orange juice, water, chair all inside of seconds. My store manager will run, I mean run to make sure everything is okay. I really love how they handle things in time of an emergency. And don\’t let a child come up missing, shoooo we shut the store doors DOWN! I know some are saying, well that\’s what you are suppose to do when things happen to the customer. And yes that\’s true, and let me say WE TAKE CARE OF OUR CUSTOMERS!! After this was all over, I realize that this experience was something I personally needed. I\’m such a cry baby, and this was my first in my face kinda stuff. A person falling out in your arms…….come on now that\’s major! So I needed to Boss up, and really be hands on in a situation like this. So thank you Lord for the opportunity to help someone today. I really love your people! Thank you!

Huhhh, guess what? I broke up with my boyfriend of 22 years today! Its over, I\’m so through with him. He doesn\’t love me, and not one day has he shown me real love. After I love him, he laugh at me, and so today was the last straw. I told him to get out of my life!!! He is officially dead in my book, and I can show him better than I can tell him. His name is Yep, food!! I realize that *he don\’t love me*. I have done all my exercises
today, plus drank my 40 ounces of water.I\’m too beautiful for all this weight. I can\’t do it anymore. I\’m tired. Enough talking about it, Imma be about it!

I told you all yesterday that I am learning to step out of my norm of things. Once upon a time I use to be the party gurl. I had parties at my house every weekend. One party my sisters friend woke up the next day laying in my drive way. The person I am today, would call the police on myself for just a person stretch outside till the break of dawn. But you know you live and you learn. Guess the point I\’m making is, 2 of my coworkers are coming over Sunday afternoon for a gurls day in. We are going to get something to eat, and come back to my house to chat and laugh. I don\’t like people at my house ,especially co workers. * I know I gotta get out of that trust mess*. People see you at work, and they are dying to see what your home life is like. Imma laid back kinda gurl, and I love and nice, clean home and plenty of peace. a part of losing weight is coming out of your comfort zone. And boy am I!!!! So yall pray for Cree! LOL

I was about 32 or 33 when I started driving and got my license. I was scared!!! Oh my goodness. I had met this guy who was a Virgo like me. We were so much alike, it killed our friendship. That was back when I didn\’t have any control over my mouth. He would come over all shob * my word* and smelling good. But he always wanted me to drive. I didn\’t know how to drive and he knew it. He would always throw up in my face, dang I wish you could drive so that you could drive me around. He wasn\’t saying it in a * lazy* way, but in a way that he was feeling me and wanted his * gurl* to drive. He felt strongly that it was so sexy for a woman to drive her man around. I felt terrible. Cause Imma bonnie and Clyde kinda silly chick, and I couldn\’t meet his standards in that area.

After a while we couldn\’t get past first base, he was reading me and I was reading him and he was moving too fast, wanted to marry me and N E WAYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, we departed. WE were still cool after that. But guess you know your gurl went and learned how to drive, got her license and was like WHERE HE AT? LOL ROFL! Shoo. now you can\’t tell me nothing!! I\’m the baddest chick in drive especially highway driving! What cha say?? LOL Now I can\’t wait to drive my man around. All I do is highway driving everywhere I go. I love to drive and its all because of him.

I\’m continuing my Chemistry blog entries, by playing one of my favorite videos, and its #20 on my iPod.

Im gone for the night.

Be Blessed
