Some News....And A New Taste In Chocolate

Hello dear world

Good evening all !!!!!! I do have a bit of news for you. Today started another busy week of work for me. A really cute guy that didn't work at my job flirted with me today. It all began when he saw me wearing my Atlanta Falcons t-shirt. He told me that he liked it and he smiled at me the whole time. I told him that I didn't wear my shirt yesterday which is probably why they lost the game sadly enough. He laughed at what I said but he seemed to like flirting with me. I ended up forgetting to get his telephone number but I did like talking to him.

In other news I did get some good news from my doctor about my Ultrasound but I am sure I don't want to bore you with that news. It was good news however and I am glad to have gotten some good news from my tests.

I wanted to tell you that I stepped out of my usual taste in chocolate and I bought a little box of Lindt Excellence DARK Chocolate with Chili which I have NEVER tried before. I have NEVER eaten dark chocolate I usually eat milk chocolate and this was the first time I tried a new kind of chocolate and its pretty delicious. You can taste the fire of the chili pepper mixed in with the dark chocolate which makes it quite good. I really have to try more flavors of dark chocolate instead of just milk chocolate. I highly recommend this chocolate. Here is the link that you might want to check out for yourself ----> http://www.lindt.com/ You might want to try some dark chocolate with chili its worth trying.

Here is some food for thought : "All you need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt." - Charles M. Schulz

So my dear world how are things in your part of the world ? I do hope that you had a nice Monday. Do keep me posted.

Good night

An Afternoon Of Shopping....

Hello dear world

Good afternoon everyone !!!!! Well I know you will be totally surprised when you hear my news. A little while ago my youngest niece Megan and I and my father went to the dollar store to do some shopping. I know....me shopping who would have guessed ??

Yes I went shopping and I had fun shopping. I ended up getting some really cute stickers that I liked including some Halloween stickers that I liked. I also bought my youngest niece some stickers she wanted. I also got yet another book by a writer named Pamela Ditchoff. The title of the book is "Seven Days & Seven Sins" which I saw and decided to get. You might want to know that you can find it on Amazon I checked. From the inside cover I read that its a collection of short stories that are both unique and a delight to read. I will have to find some time to read the books I have bought.I have bought so many books that I don't know how I will ever get around to reading them all.

In other news the lines at the gas stations are still quite long and growing and growing. I don't know if things will change when it comes to the gas. A lot of gas stations are running out of gas.

Of course the stores are filling up on Halloween decorations and Christmas decorations and such. I love this time of year when you see Halloween decorations and Christmas decorations at the same time.

The weather here in Atlanta, Georgia is quite nice and warm not a raindrop in sight. At the moment my folks are watching Football. Its a day of sports and hanging out at the house.

Of course I have been off of work this weekend. I seem to have the weekends off which I like. Tomorrow I have go back into work and its supposed to be another busy busy week. How are things in your part of the world ? Did you all enjoy your weekend ??

From reading one of my favorite journals I came upon a blog that I just had to share. I really liked reading it and I hope you enjoy it as I did. Here is the link for it so you can drop in and give it a look -----> A YEAR FROM OAK COTTAGE ------> http://ayearatoakcottage.blogspot.com/

That's about all for now. I'll get back to you again later.

Ta ta for now

A Trip Around The World....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone. I wanted to come and tell you about my Saturday. I have to say that it was a nice one. Our church St. Philip Benizi Catholic Church held an International Night.

The International Night was an event where people from all over the world flew in and brought in food from the countries in which they live. There were people from Jamaica, the Philippines, Ireland, Slovakia, Hungary, Cameroon, France, Togo, Sierra Leone, Poland, Holland, Panama, Liberia as well as Nigeria, Trinidad, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Haiti, Germany, Africa, Colombia, Italy, Guyana and Ghana. There was also music from all over the world. I saw a guy there from Scotland wearing a traditional Scottish kilt. It was fun taking a trip around the world and seeing people from places that I have always wanted to visit. My trip was fun and the food was good.

Before the night was over my oldest niece won a really huge basket from the Dutch country filled with chocolates, tea and wine. Our night was really fun and I have to say that it was fun learning about different parts of the world. I really enjoyed the Mariachi band and there were some Nigerian children there dancing. There were people there from Haiti doing a dance that symbolized where they live.

So how was your day my dear world ?? I do hope that you had a really nice Saturday. That's all of my news for now. I'll talk to you again later.

Good night

 

Notes From Friday....

Hello dear world

Good morning everyone !!!!!!! How are you all ? Well here I am again. I do have tons of news for you but where to begin ???

How about I start with some good news ? The results from my mom's liver biopsy is that the spot that was seen turned out to be a benign lesion. I'm glad that the results of her biopsy turned out good. She is getting better but she is still sore. I'm just glad that it wasn't cancer or anything.

Anywho...yesterday was another busy day at work for me. Earlier in the day my coworker C**M told me that she had saw Andrew  and that he had asked about me. Later in the day I saw Andrew and he was very happy to see me. I had NOT seen him in a couple of weeks. I was wondering where he was. He told me that he had been busy working. I wonder if I'll see him next week.

In other news I am still reading "TRIBUTE" by Nora Roberts. Yesterday I did go and buy some books called "New Moon" and "Breaking Dawn" by Stephenie Meyer. I have been wanting to read her books. A lot of people at work have been reading them and they told me that her books were pretty good. I'll have to finish TRIBUTE so I can start on Stephenie's books.

By the way I did watch the movie "CONSPIRACY" with Val Kilmer and I have to say that the movie was totally great. Val was quite wonderful in the movie. I totally think that he deserved an academy award for his work in the movie. I am glad that I rented it.

Some different women at my work told me that they liked my lipstick. Some other women were wondering if I was looking for a boyfriend or if I was going out after work since I had on my lipstick. I am thinking I will stick with the people who liked my lipstick and how it looked on me. I think that I will keep wearing it and I won't throw it away. Those people who don't like it well that's their opinion.

So how are things in yourneck of the woods ? I do hope that all is well. It is the weekend but so far I have NO plans for the weekend. Do you have any plans ? Keep me posted. That's about it for now. I'll talk to you again later.

Bye

A Personal Thought....

Hello dear world

Good evening. How is everyone today ? I had to come by and share a thought with you that kind of hurt my feelings today. I hope you don't mind me sharing this note.

Anywho...yesterday at work I wore some red lipstick that my mom gave me from AVON. The lipstick was red but not a dark red just a soft shade of red. My mom and my oldest niece said that it looked nice on me. They said that it was a good color for me.

The thing is yesterday some people at my work said that I looked like a clown with the lipstick on. Someone else said that it made me look like my mouth was bleeding. I didn't have the lipstick with me at work today because I forgot it at home. I wish I would have had it at work with me today.

I laughed off the comments that were made to me but the comments that were made really hurt my feelings. My mom always said that if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all and that's how I felt yesterday and today. I was disappointed at the fact that people could say things like that to me without thinking.

Am I wrong my dear world ?? I really like the lipstick and I didn't feel like I looked like a clown with the lipstick on. I don't know if I should have said something to those who made a comment but I didn't. I was hurt by the comments and I felt that the comments were rather harsh. The people who made the comments were laughing as they made the comments as if the comments were funny. It made me feel bad as the comments were said.

I don't know my dear world perhaps I am overreacting to the situation or maybe I should just forget about the comments and act like nothing was said. I have always been nice to the people who made the comments and today they were mean to me and I felt like they were wrong. How should I handle such a situation my dear world ??

Am I in the wrong for feeling this way ??? Maybe its just me. I don't know how I should feel about the comments. Tomorrow I want to wear the lipstick to work but maybe I shouldn't since they don't seem to like it.

Could I be entirely wrong about this ???

News....And A Personal Medical Note

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone. How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. Of course today started another week at work for me. I did finish reading "HEARTBREAKER" which was a very good book. I started a new book by Nora Roberts called "TRIBUTE" . So far in the book there is a woman named Cilla McGowan and she has just met her neighbor Ford Sawyer and his dog Spock. I'll tell you more about it later.

On the more personal note

Today I had to go for an ultrasound at Kaiser. Apparently I have cyst's which is why I went for the ultrasound. I'll have to wait to see what my doctor says about the whole thing. If the cyst's have grown I'll probably have to have surgery to have them removed. It might turn out that the cyst's have NOT grown which I'm hoping. Getting an ultrasound is definitely NOT fun. I'll have to wait to see how things turn out but hopefully it all turns out fine I just don't know. I guess I will just have to wait and see.

I do have to add that my show "HOUSE" did NOT win an award. My favorite actors Hugh Laurie and Robert Sean Leonard did NOT win any awards. My other show "BONES" did NOT win any awards. My favorites David Boreanaz, Emily Deschanel and John Francis Daley did NOT win an award. What is going on ??? Come on people !!!!!!!!!! I am so NOT happy about this. Come on !!!!!!

My dear world I hope you had a nice Monday. There were a ton of people at my job today and it will probably be a very busy busy week. How are things in your part of the world ? That's about it for now. I'll talk to you again later.

Good night

Update...

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone. I wanted to come by and say hello. It was a rather quiet Sunday for me. I do have some news for you.

The movie "88 Minutes" with Al Pacino was quite good. I really liked Al in the movie and I thought he did a great job. It left you guessing until the very end which I liked. I am glad I rented it and I thought that Al was the best part of the movie.

I haven't seen the rest of the movies yet. I do have to go to work tomorrow but after work I have to go to the doctor for another ultrasound. Do not be alarmed I'm sure everything is fine. I will have to let you know how it goes.

By the way you might want to know that the Atlanta Falcons won the football game this evening which is great news. I am proud of the Atlanta Falcons. I will wear my Falcons t-shirt to work with me.

How was your Sunday my dear world ?? I do hope that you had a nice weekend. I do hope that things are well in your neck of the woods. Do enjoy your week ahead.

Good night

Dinner And Some Movies.....

Hello dear world

Good evening all !!!!!! Here I am again. I had a really nice and long Saturday. I just got home with my family from our day. Earlier today we were going to the theater since we had some tickets for a movie but the tickets aren't until the 27th of September. We decided to head to Longhorn Steakhouse for lunch which was quite good. My mom and I had the Outlaw Ribeye which was very very very very good. I had mine cooked medium well and she had hers cooked medium. She had her ribeye with a baked potato while I had mine with mashed potatoes which I loved. My dad had a ribeye with a lobster tail. My oldest niece had chicken fingers with fries and my youngest niece we had stopped off and got her McDonald's to bring to Longhorn's with us. Our dinner was quite good and I have to tell you that I love going to Longhorn's its always a good place to go eat.

After lunch we then headed to the mall and my oldest niece finally decided on a pair of tennis shoes she wanted and I only did some window shopping. My folks and I and my niece's walked the entire mall and it was quite busy there with people. Women were handing out those fragrance sample's on those little cards which made I hate. The entire fragrance department smelled like it was bathed in perfume and cologne. I did like window shopping at the different stores but I didn't feel like buying anything. I went to the candy store but they didn't have the candy I wanted which I wasn't happy about.

The best part of my day was going to Blockbuster Video where I picked up some movie's I wanted. I ended up getting 88 Minutes with Al Pacino who I love to watch and I also got a movie called Conspiracy with Val Kilmer. My youngest niece got her some movies she wanted including The Nightmare Before Christmas and a few other movies . My oldest niece also got her a movie called Baby Mama .

All in all our Saturday was a nice one. How was your day my dear world ? I do hope that all is well in your part of the world. Its kind of late here in Atlanta, Georgia. I hope that you were able to enjoy your day as I did. I will have to let you know how my movies were. I'll talk to you again later.

Good night

The Best Day....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone !!!!!! As you might be wondering I had a very very very very very wonderful Sunday.

My day began with a trip to a place called Moe's where my folks and I and my niece's went to eat. I ordered a Triple Lindy burrito with black beans, rice, lettuce, sour cream which was very good. We had NOT been to Moe's in a while. The food is always good and the burrito was huggggggggge to say the least and I enjoyed it. My folks had a different burrito and my youngest niece had a hamburger from Wendy's and my oldest niece had a different burrito from Moe's. We had a really nice lunch at Moe's. Here is the link ---> http://www.moes.com/

After lunch we took a ride over to the Sports Authority where I ended up buying an Atlanta Falcons t-shirt for my mom and I and I also purchased a orange Nike shirt for myself as well.

After the Sports Authority we went to TJMaxx where my oldest niece wanted a cute purse she liked so I bought it for her. I didn't buy anything there but it was fun looking around the store at all of the things in the store.

After TJMaxx we then took a ride to my favorite store of all.....Barnes & Noble. I had a fun time going to the bookstore. I looked at several books I wanted and I got myself a few books titled "Keeping Faith" by the writer Jodi Picoult and "The Canterbury Tales" by Geoffrey Chaucer and "Listen To Your Heart" by Fern Michaels and the book "Irresistible" by Susan Mallery. I also bought myself a really nice bookmark that I liked. They have a ton of books at Barnes & Noble. I also bought my youngest niece some books she wanted including one on Gemstones since she likes Gems and rocks and things. I also bought my oldest niece a Cliffs Notes books on the play Macbeth. After purchasing some books my mom and I and my oldest niece went to the Starbucks in the bookstore where I bought myself a coffee frappucchino and my mom got a dry coffee cappucchino she wanted and my oldest niece got a bottled water. My frappucchino was quite delicious and I enjoyed it. I used a gift cardI had gotten from my aunt to purchase the books and I used my Barnes & Noble member's card to purchase the books and the coffe drinks for my mom and I. I have to say that I love love love love love love love going to Barnes & Noble bookstore its always fun going there and getting some books I have NOT read before.

How was your day my dear world ??? How are things in your part of the world ?? Did you get to enjoy your Sunday ????? I hope all is well with you. I shall talk to you again later.

Bye !!!!!!

It's Friday !!!!!!!!

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone !!!!!! How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. It is Friday and the weekend is officially here. I do have some news for you all.

You might want to know that for lunch with two of my coworker's F****S and C**M we ended up going to lunch at a place called Po' Folks I can tell you that my lunch was quite good. I had some catfish fillets which were quite good. The mashed potatoes were quite good as well. The cornbread dressing I had was also quite good. It was nice going there to eat for lunch. It was my very first time going there. I really liked the place and the food was pretty delicious. I can't wait to go back there to eat. Here is the link to the restaurant -------> http://www.pofolks.com/

In other news I have to say that I liked reading "WHITE LIES" it was a very good book. I must tell you that I did move on. I am now on the next book. I thought since its coming up to election time I would choose a book centered around politics. I started a book called "Sammy's Hill" by the writer Kristin Gore.

Sammy's Hill is about a woman named Sammy Joyce a twenty-six-year-old political analyst who lands a job on Capitol Hill in which she is hired by a rising Democratic senator. Sammy finally has the opportunity to make a difference in the world but as devoted as she is to her work , she soon discovers that trying to change the world leaves little time for romance. She then meets Aaron Driver who is a handsome speechwriter for a rival senator whom Sammy doesn't like. Before she knows it Sammy finds herself at the heart of a romantic tangle, a showdown of health care reform and the highest stakes of all - a presidential election campaign.

So my dear world how are things in your part of the world ? I do hope that those in the path of Ike are able to make it out and hopefully people are being able to evacuate quickly and safely. I wanted to know howeveryone is doing. I do hope that things are well where ever you are.

That's about it for me and my news. I'll talk to you again later.

Bye

 

Just A Little News....

Hello dear world

Good evening !!!!!!!! Here I am again. Well it was another day at work for me and it was a very very very busy day. I did finish reading "The MacGregor Brides" and I have to say that it was a very good book. I started reading a new book as of today called "WHITE LIES" by the writer Jayne Ann Krentz and I have to say that its a terrific and interesting book. I highly recommend this one for a book to read. If you have any books you would like to point out to me please do let me know.

I have been keeping up with the political campaign's going on between both candidates and I have to say that its a lot to take in. I will have to learn some more information about Sarah Palin I don't know much about her. I haven't made up my mind yet about any of the candidates its just a lot to decide on. I still have some thinking to do on this.

I am excited to report that my favorite show "BONES" is back on fox. I have to say that I am still a huge huge huge fan of the show.

The weather in my neck of the woods has been quite pleasant. How are things with you my dear world ??? I hope all is well in your part of the world ?? Do you have any news for me ?

That's about all for now. I just thought I would pop in and say hello.

Take care everyone

Some News....

Hello dear world

Good morning all !!!!!! Here I am again. Its the weekend of course. It was quite the busy week for me at work at the H.R. Banke Justice Center but I am beginning my weekend.

You might want to know that I finished reading "On Mystic Lake" .The book was quite good. Annie did return to Blake but it did NOT work out. She did try to make it work with Blake. She had found out that she was pregnant with Blake's baby but the marriage between them did NOT work. She did take her newborn baby with her as she decides to go back to Nick Delacroix and Izzy. I am glad that it ended the way it did. I think that Nick was far better for Annie than Blake was. On Mystic Lake was well worth reading.

I am now started on a book that I got at CVS called "The MacGregor Brides" by Nora Roberts. The story is about three women Julia, Gwen and Laura. They share a house in Boston and they are quite happily single, a fact that doesn't make the family patriarch happy. Grandfather daniel MacGregor won't rest easy until his Julia, Gwen and Laura are safely wed and hopefully producing the next generation.

I just started reading it and I have to say that its pretty good and its quite interesting. I do like to read books and its always fun to find a book that I like.

I did find a candle at CVS which is a mocha candle and it smells good. It was originally $7.99 and I got it on sale for $2.00 which I thought was a good price. I also bought a pink folder for my oldest niece. I also bought another book called "If There Be Dragons" by Kay Hooper.

So my dear world how are you my dear world ?? How are things in your neck of the woods. I do hope that all is well. The weather in my part of the world has been nice and it hasn't been too hot. It is a beautiful morning in Atlanta, Georgia and my family and I are doing fine.

I guess that's all for now. I'll talk to you again later.

Bye
