Calgon, Take me away!

Hello my five fans! I have missed you and am sorry to have been away for so long. I have been battling life and it's many forms of beat downs. I have been riding this "wave" of real estate and have found that I am not fond of it. The jury is out right now to decide whether or not to continue doing it. I'm not having any fun, I'm not making any money and the people are just down right mean. Gee the job everyone wants. 

Anyway, I've hurt my heel and am trying to re coup from that issue but on a whole my life has been crazy and not in a good way. I am ready to just hang up my signs. I have discovered that I am not as much a people person as I thought. I make friends pretty easily and get a long with most people but the general public is another animal all together and I am not liking this jungle. 

It seems people are not very nice as a whole and are out to blame other's for their mistakes. On my Facebook page I "like" a lot of pages that have posts promoting happiness, well being and kindness. I subscribe to these ideals. I think we should be kind to each other but I have found that most people do not look down a path of common sense, kindness and responsibility. No quite the opposite. They are mean, out to get what they can for themselves and are ready to blame other people for everything even things out of that person's control. 

I feel that this job has made me questions my faith in humanity. The basic ethics, honesty and integrity that we should all have has been washed away and replaced with dishonesty, greed and self-importance. All I see is people in the "me me me me" mode. Never once seeing the situation for what it is but blaming and pointing fingers and feeling better about themselves through the degrading of others. What is wrong with these people? Have I been so sheltered from the crowd that I am no able to understand them any longer? Should I have to, if they are like that anyway? I don't want to grow callus in order to do my job but I feel that I have to to survive doing what I am doing.  

I am not happy with the path I have chosen. I feel that I have made a mistake. I have given myself a timeframe and have decided to stick it out until then. If things don't change or if I don't meet a decent human being, then I'm done. This may be business but even in business you should have your ethics, integrity and your honesty. 

I consider myself to be a reasonably strong person and I can put up with a lot but there are some things in life that are just not worth it. I am in search of a more likable solution. If anyone knows of one, shout out and let me know. I would welcome any ideas.

Until next time...

Be nice to one another, don't be mean and just live a good and happy life.

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

3 day nail check in

It had been three days since I have removed my nails and coated them with Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps nail covering. Now the directions say to take off the polish after three days and restart the process all over again with two (2) new coats. When they say that you need to remove the polish after three days and start over, they mean it. Here is what happens on the third day, prompting you to remove the polish. My nails with the initial tear on the polish. The polish starts to lift and tear off. It started with a small uplift on the side of my nails and I pulled off the rest. Surprisingly, the whole thing came off without having to use nail polish remover.The problem with that, though, is that my nails underneath are still very thin and weak.  In this picture the nail is bent. It's a little hard to see it but I am bending my nail. The weak condition of my nails has continued and I see no real change to them . The next picture is of  the top of my nail, showing the te...

Nail Journal Update

No, my five wonderful readers, I have not forgotten about you. I went camping! Yes, yours truly went into the woods and camped. Actually I drove through the woods to a cabin. But before you say that's not real camping. Let me elaborate. It was a one room cabin, no running electricity, no running water, no restroom. See...that is camping.  And before you say "ewww" there was an outhouse down the dirt road for us to use. Now you can say ew.  Really it wasn't so bad.  We camped out in Hermit Park by Estes Park Colorado .  So we were out there for 4 nights, 5 days. That's a lot when you have to ration water, keep your own food cold in the cooler (which this wasn't too hard since there was still snow on the ground) and figure out lighting at night. Now in all fairness, the cabin had propane lighting and a stove with a heater, Not too bad.  Why am I telling you this and what does this have to do with nails? I'll tell you.  As you ...
