My Edible Arrangement

Here is a picture of the fruit basket and the balloon. Sorry it's kind of blurry. And that is my cubicle where I work. Isn't it nice? Those are my Elvis magnets in the background. I love Elvis!

Here is a closer look at the yummy fruits I got. I even shared some with my co-workers. It was so beautiful I didn't want to eat it but it looked so yummy so I had to dig in. Loved it! Thanks baby. :)

Happy Anniversary!

Today is my 11th yr Dating Anniversary with my husband. We met at Cal State Fullerton in the library on this day, 11 years ago. Wow, that sounds like ancient times. After that day, we have been inseparable. Well, we have gone through lots of stuff and I mean LOTS of STUFF. I have gone through thick and thin with him. I have really watched him grow into a man and I am so proud of him. When I first met him, he was just a little stuck up jock that thought the world revolved around him. And yes I still stayed with him. I guess it was fate. I had lots of patience and I believed that he was more than just a basketball jock. It took me many years to mold him into the man he is now. Well, God helped too. I had to get hurt many times and fight for him but at the end, I have this great man in my life. He is all that I ever wanted and more. He satisfies all my needs. I am so lucky to have him as my husband. I love you babe!

So today I got a phone call from the front desk telling me I had a package. She asked me if it was my birthday and I said no and thought what could it be. FYI, I have never gotten anything delivered to me at work. So I thought it might be a mistake. I walked down there and saw it was one of those Edible Arrangements and it had a balloon that said. "Happy Anniversary". It was beautiful! I will post a picture up when I get a chance. I was in shock and so happy at the same time. I would have never thought my husband would do something like this. He has never done anything like that in the 11 yrs we've been together. He really got me this time. Thank you for the wonderful fruit basket and I love you so much!

My husband has really grown into a great man. He has changed so much and I cant ask for anything more. I am just so happy. Happy Anniversary Baby!

Foot in the Mouth

I did something really stupid on Monday at work and regret it tremendously. If you know me, then you know that I am a very sensitive person. I sometimes take things way too personal and let things get to me. I have a hard time distinguishing between jokes, dry humor, sarcasm, and being serious. I guess it has a lot to do with my growing up. I was always talked down to and belittled so when I hear things that are negative about me or anything negative at all, I tend to believe it. At my last job, my old supervisor would never tell me I did anything good, but when I made a mistake, she then would give it to me. I have had times where people had to tell me they were joking so I wouldn't take it the wrong way. I guess you can say I am naive but not stupid. I might do stupid things but it doesn't make me stupid. But if it's about me or a friendship with someone, then I am going to take it serious. What happened was that I took something that someone said to me in the wrong way and was hurt by it. The stupid thing I did was I vented it out on my work email which I should know better because we have been told not to do so but I was just so upset and not thinking that I just typed up something fast and sent it. Thinking nothing about it and then to find out I sent it to the person I was venting about. Well, you can say it's Karma but in a way it was a lesson learned in my part because I am never doing that again. I need to start being more assertive and approach people and let them know how I feel. This will be very hard for me to do but I have to do it. It is a growing process. I hardly got any sleep last night because I was thinking about it all night. I couldn't eat dinner because I was sick to my stomach. The reason why I felt like this was because I truly felt hurt about what was said and it was someone I thought very highly of and thought was a close friend of mine. I guess misunderstandings can be hurtful but I just wish I wasn't so darn sensitive. I always wished I could be like those people who just don't give a damn about what anyone said or thought about them. I think they are so cool. So I decided last night I was going to approach her and talk to her about it. 

So today was the most awkward day. Even more then my first day at work. I felt as if I was going to get a call telling me to pack up my things and leave. I have never felt so scared and terrified before at work. I really thought that today was going to be my last day and I was going to get fired for not being professional at work. I am so glad I went to talk to her about it because we got to share our feelings and worked things out. But even though we did talked, I still feel like I messed up a friendship and the bond between us will never be the same. I only wish I could take it all back and I do it differently, but it's too late. The damage is done and I just hope that she can find it in her heart to forgive me and give me another chance. 

I'm Melting!

I cant stand this heat! I'm dying here. Is is Summer already because it sure feels and looks like it. People are already at the pool laying out and swimming. I am not ready for the summer. I still have winter clothes in my closest.

We went to Knot's Berry Farm yesterday and that was a BIG mistake because it was so HOT and there was like TONS of people. We stayed for about 4 hours and I was seriously dehydrated. We then went to Pat and Oscar's and I think I drank more than eat. If it is this hot already then I bet the Summer is going to be a killer. I might have to move up North to cool off. I love the cold. I have to say I am loving my AC right now! I feel for the people who don't have AC. Poor you! I feel for you.

Anyhow, I'm home alone enjoying the AC and have nothing to do. I guess I could work on my knitting project. Kinda hungry so I think I will fix me something to eat. TTFN!

Hallelujah!

God is amazing! So my husband has been in debt forever (not really, but it feels like it) and has his last credit card bill which is over $6000. We have been saving and saving and praying and praying that the company would settle with an amount we could pay off. Well, they wouldn't do it and last month we got a knock on the door and my husband got served a summon. AHHHHHH! We were so scared. I had never seen that happened before. So I started to panic and of course freaked out. But then I realized God was in control of this. So my husband and I kept praying over it. My husband knew someone who was a lawyer so we got some legal advice and help from him. Let me tell you, he is an Angel sent from God because he must have battled it on with that agencies lawyer. He got them to settle for $4400! Hallelujah!!! Praise the Lord! Since my husband does basketball coaching and training, he happened to get paid today and paid it in full! Now that is no accident. That is all God's doing and He is awesome. Today, my husband is debt free! That just sounds so good. It is such a relief and the greatest feeling. Now we can have a fresh new start. I am so happy and feel so blessed. Thank you God!!!!

I am exhausted!

I had a community event for work at 7am today so my husband had to take time off from work to take my son to school. Thanks honey! :) I was so happy I got there on time because I was so worried I was going to get lost (which I usually do even with my GPS system), or traffic which is never predictable. Only thing that really sucked was that no one else was there on time. I think our agency was the only one that was there early and ready by 7:30am like they wanted. So my partner and I sat there for an hour just talking because there was nothing else to do. And to top it off, I was thinking since we had to be there early that they would have coffee or something for us but I was wrong. BUT we did get a nice snack bag with a bottle of water, an orange, and a granola bar which came in handy. Oh, and they even had a farmer's market there with mango (LOVE IT), boysenberries, apples, and oranges. What's funny is that we never know how many people are going to be at these events so it's really hard for us to know how much stuff to bring. Well, we got cleaned out today. I have never ever had an event where I got cleaned out. Seriously, they brought loads of people in a school bus and they came on a schedule so it was one after another. I think there must have been at least 200 families there. Isn't that crazy! Well, I am glad because we got the chance to tell these families about our agency and they seemed very happy to hear about our services. It was just a very long day. At least I got to leave work early and now I can rest at home. I think I will go to bed early. :)
