As the Weather Changes

Well its the morning of a cold Saturday. I got the heat pumping......listening to Ron Isley and Lauryn Hill's rendition of "Close to You". I don't know that is just how I decided to start my morning off with. It is a nice remake of it though.

What are my plans for the day? Probably wash my car, clean my house, and chill. The weather is changing and its actually nice to look outside and see the leaves changing colors and instead of smelling heat from the melted tar on the concrete, you smell the crisp brisk cold air. Winter is near. Almost time to prepare for Holiday shopping. What are your plans for today? What are your plans for the holidays?

I might post something later but this was my subtle way of saying "Hello......good morning"!

How Does It Feel?

Well, today has been rough. I went to work today and it ended up being long of a day. I made it through.

So to follow up with my previous post, I finally met my family on my father's side. It was a great experience seeing so many people with similar features. I felt like I had found my place and belonged somewhere. Unfortunate that most of these people were older than me in my generation. It almost felt like I was an afterthought being the youngest in my generation line. However, I have made a connection with my sisters and a few cousins so that is great.

Yesterday was a bit rough for me. I had begun to put myself out there and open up, but felt a little blown back by a conversation I had with someone I had been talking to. I think I am okay now as we have talked it out, but still have thoughts. Am I doing something wrong, is this right, or should I step back.

I will just say a simple prayer about it and let it go. All in all, today was an okay day.

By the way, I am in the process of reading a bunch of books via my Nook. Any suggestions?

New Beginnings ..... Wait Again?

I have been missing yet once again. However, when I go on my hiatus....I always come back new and improved. I have experienced a lot in the time that I have been gone, but I have finally found my family after all this time right? I think I finally will see where I come from, where I fit in, and why my father hid all these people from me. The family reunion is in September so I am looking forward to that.

As far as my job and my current location.....I think it is time to move on to bigger and better things. I am always constantly trying to become better and grow. I've gained a house, a new car, and made a few new acquaintances along the way. It has definitely been an exciting year, but I am going to start putting my resume out there and see what grabs. I know that I am WAYYYYY more marketable now than I was years ago since gaining all my new found knowledge and experiences.

Well there is more that I would like to add, but for now this will suffice. Goodnight !

Reborn Again in 2010

Maybe the title should be my new slogan for 2010. I haven't wrote anything in a long ass time, but here I am. So much had happened to clear out 2009 and make way for 2010. I finally found my family on my Dad side. Two sisters and a brother I found along with a slew of new family members. I got another raise at work ! I bought a house and finally moved out of my uncomfortable "situation". I put a handle on myself being diabetic and now have more control over it after having found out in the beginning of 2009. I want to live more in 2010. I want to be better as well and just enjoy life.

I do have a lot on my mind. But I will open up this new entry on a good note.
