Pinky I'm praying for your back!
And I didn't get your text until I turned my phone off and back on to see if that would work this morning after the gym. I then got full bars, got your text, then went to my sister's to grab something, but then the bars went back down to one. It keeps doing that. I hope it's not a malfunction in the phone, but I've been trying to re-text you

Thank you!
Aw, I hope it's not your phone! I remember I had a phone that would do that to my texts. I'd end up getting them all when I rebooted my phone. It was annoying!

Yes. His name is.....Adrian Pasdar.
I see the resemblance... I never watched Heroes, though.

^ Lol. The more you look, the more they really don't look like each other that much, it's just at first glance.

How can I even have a family if I can't even take care of myself financially? I get this overwhelming feeling rush into me and I can't shake it off!
Well I take care of myself fine financially I couldn't a family with it that's for sure.

All things when He intends it to, you don't have the money to raise a family now, because you don't have kids.
I worry about the same thing some times, but then I remember. I will do whatever I have to, when ever I have to, to take care of my kids and wife, IF I ever have them.
Not only do I have that faith in me to do that, more so I have faith He will provide what I need, to do what I need.

Almost done with my second Karen Kingsbury book. They are predictable but well written. Maybe I'll curl up tonight and finish it.
Ethie It's rough thinking about finances like that. I think everyone worries about that sort of stuff. My old boss once told me "There is no financially right time to have a baby."
The older I get and the more I see people manage to fit a little one into their lives with such varied budgets...the more I tend to agree.

Ethie, I'm assuming you wouldn't be having a family all by yourself...that you'd have a husband to help out. The two of you together could do a lot more than just you by yourself.

It still amazes me how fast we can go from doing well to shattered in a second.
Words are so incredibly powerful, and I don't think people realize just how much.
1 damaging word / sentence can erase 20 encouragements. Choosing how you say something is often more important than what you say.
There's a fine line between teasing, and really damaging someone. It's important to know where that line is.
Disagreeing with people is to be expected. But we need to remember not to automatically assume they think the same way we do. People have their own reasons, life experiences, way of looking at things, and it's naive of us to think that they're going to see things the same way we do.

Along with my last post, I was listening to the radio a few days ago and they were talking about marriage communication and how important it is. They said one of the things it's really important for couples to do is make sure they're on the same page with one another.
So when the wife or husband says
I feel.... I want you to do this.... I need....
The other spouse repeats back to them what they heard and what they thought it meant
Then the first person either affirms that it is correct, or they restate the original intent until they are both understanding what is needed / wanted
I'm thinking about trying to apply that more to my every day communication with people, whether it be offline or online.

It's true. Guys and girls communicate differently, so we need to be careful about that. And then there's internet communication, which can also get misinterpreted sometimes...

Googlebot is Google's web crawling bot (sometimes also called a "spider"). Crawling is the process by which Googlebot discovers new and updated pages to be added to the Google index.

Subject: More Deli Drama and some life drama.... Wed Jul 31, 2013 10:40 pm
So...yesterday I had to work one of the longer closing shifts (2:30pm-11pm). I go into work...and holy cow...I thought I just walked into a graveyard or something. Everyone was very somber and there was a tense, heavy aura around the deli. I asked what was up and was told that Player and Mayhem (who were both working at the time) had brought some of their 'couple' problems to the deli and pretty much made everyone else miserable. Thankfully after they left, it was a TON nicer...the night went well with Black Knight and Captain America (they made me laugh so much!) and even got sent home early after the majority of work was done. *thumbsup*
...
Then comes today....
Ho-ly jump-ing crickets...today had to be THE worst day I've had in a while....
It started as soon as I woke up this morning. I woke up about an hour before my alarm was suppose to go off while having a really nice dream. Unfortunately, I can't remember that dream and that kinda upset me...but it wasn't too bad. After a while, I heard my bro's alarm go off. I expected it, so that didn't bother me...until he forgot to turn it off before going downstairs. It went right to a berserk mode, which of course made me jump out of bed to turn it off. That right there made me angry. I lay back down...just kinda driftin' off...then decide to check my clock. One glance and I seriously thought I over slept (and would eventually be late for work). I jump out of bed again...and then suddenly realize that it was still early. So...now I'm REALLY irritated and jump back into bed until my alarm finally goes off. Ok...ready to go! I go downstairs, as irritated as a bear and my head now pounding,and see that no one is actually up. Bro went back to bed (that little turkey...) and Mother went back for a nap too (she's been having some bad nights). Well, I was actually kinda bummed...I was hoping that perhaps Mother would've been up and could've made me some breakfast while I made my lunch for the day. *sigh* ...fine, whatever...I'll make breakfast and do the morning dishes. Got done the dishes first, then went about making my breakfast. Ya think that went over well? Nooooo...I splashed hot butter on my hand and burned myself. That was kinda the breaking point...I burst into tears and sobbed quietly while still making my breakfast. So breakfast is done, get my lunch going, and NOW Mother comes down. Poor lady saw my tear-streaked face and tried her best to comfort me. She helped me finish my lunch and soon I was outta there (after scolding my bro, of course).
So! Finally get to work...I was actually pretty okay during the morning (although there were little incidents that made me irritated, but I kept my patience as best I could). I was working with Subtle Sociopath, Miss Pattycake, and Greenman. I was pretty bummed to hear that Crochet Lady called off last minute, but the crew I was with were pretty cool. Then I heard that Player and Mayhem were coming in later. Honest to goodness, my stomach curled when I heard that. The LAST thing I wanted was to face something like what happened yesterday while I was having a bad day myself. As the time came closer for them to come in, I literally began to feel almost physically ill. And so they finally come in...thankfully the aura around them today was a bit more pleasant, but nonetheless they still seem to have a bit of a 'do not touch' sorta air around them...so I could just feel the air slightly tense up. Then the explosion happened...at least for me. I was waiting on a customer and happened to pass by the slicers when I noticed one of them was on and running with no one around. Now I always feel a tiny bit nervous and definitely cautious when it comes to the slicers being on, especially since quite a few of my co-workers keep them running while they weigh their meat/cheese at the scales...so I naturally turned it off to be safe (and it's the rules not to leave them on while you're not there). "Hey, I was using that one!" I heard Player bark from across the deli. He was standing at one of the stand-up coolers, taking a fresh package out. He glares angrily at me. "Well, isn't it against the rules to leave it on while you're not there?" I reply back with a little sting. Now he's giving me a death glare. "I said I was using it! Don't go touching my slicer!" he snaps back vehemently. "Well at least I follow the rules!" I shot right back with more warmth. "Yeah? I follow rules too!" he barks again. Riiiiight...says the guy that almost got my butt in trouble because I refused to wrap salads before 9pm...(and now we even have a sign on the cooler that states 'Do NOT close the salad case before 9PM!') Haha...now I'm as irritated as I was this morning and can feel the tears come to my eyes. I could feel the air in the deli tense up even more and it was AWFUL. The rest of the afternoon was spent trying not to burst into tears. I felt so bad...there was one point where someone tried to joke with me and I almost cried right there. I was literally |___| <-- that close to crying...and even some of the customers saw it. After Player snapped at me, the customer I was waiting on actually shot him a dirty look and waved her hand at him like 'whatever, dude'. A couple of other customers seemed to try and smile more after seeing me...one even said 'I hope you have a very good day' with some emotion. Zomigosh...I just felt so bad because I know emotions in the workplace is frowned upon...I wanted to crawl into a hole and die, pretty much. My eyes were practically glued to the clock, waiting for my shift to end. Once I got home, I finally let the tears go. Mother hugged me for a few minutes while I just cried on her shoulder.
Thank God I'm off for the next two days. Hopefully I'll be all better again come Saturday.
(Holy crap...this is a loooooong post...sorry guys! >.>)
well, at least until I have to be at work at 1pm..... then it will be 
I wanna be getting off work right now, NOT going to work.
goodnight!
