Hmmm

Never get lost in downtown Fort Worth. Especially close to I-30. While heading to an allergy and asthma appointment for my kiddo I zigged when I should have zagged. I ended up in an area very close to resembling skid row. If you aren't familiar with that area, it's where many homeless individuals frequent looking for drugs.

A man approached the car asking for money. It was scary. I felt terrible because I wanted nothing more than to roll the window down and help. Instead I pointed in the direction of a shelter and yelled out, "They will feed you at the men's shelter!"

After a rude hand gesture, he walked away and continued on to the next car. You can't help people unwilling to accept the right kind if help.

Love, happiness, and sugar free sprinkles!

More Vlogs?

It's official. We are making more vlogs. We have decided to call them webisodes. I mean, really. They are 30 minutes long. I think they are pretty funny. What do you think?

Words Cut Deep

What you say, can be forgiven but not forgotten. Words cut deep. The wounds aren't physical. You can't slap a bandaid on them and heal them that way. Words are not silent. They seep into the minds of others and stay there.

Yesterday, I said something truly awful to someone I care about very very deeply. I can't take them back. I let my own fear and insecurities override what I new in my head to be right. I knew this person I care for would never hurt me, yet I lashed out. I deeply regret this. I wish I could rewind the day, take back or erase everything I said. But I can't.

There is a huge lesson to be learned here. Words hurt. They can be forgiven but only if the person you hurt is willing. I messed up, and I will have to live with that. The lesson? Be mindful of what you say, especially to someone you love.

Dare Time!

Today was the completion of the 2 part dare. My kid was forced to wear his hat sideways walking through the mall. It was so funny! I made him go into Forever 21, Hollister, Hot Topic, and a few other stores. He also had to walk through the entire mall that way. Then we went to Target, and he wore it then too. The video of the little adventure is coming up tonight.

It was fun. We might do more dare vids. If you have a dare and you want to challenge him... submit them here or on his facebook wall.

To Buy or Not to Buy

So my kid and I went shopping. We definitely too the video camera along. It was super fun. We have a surprise coming up. It was funny.

Today's biggest question was, "to buy or not to buy?" I was torn. The heels are super fantastic. Being the shoe whore I am... 4" of raspberry beauty called to me... Watcha think?

Nerve Wracking!

Today I had an interview for an amazing job opportunity. Today I tried to prepare myself the best I could. Today, I absolutely flipped out.

Do you know how nerve wracking it is being on the telephone while the other person on the line is asking you questions and judging you. Well... it's enough to make you want to throw up.

I got asked everything under the sun. The interviewer was a wonderfully nice individual who tried desperately to make me feel comfortable. She succeeded. At the end of the conversation it was as if I had been chatting with a friend. I was praised. I was told I was wonderful and exceptional, and perfect for the position. I was also told I was impressive and smart.

Today was nerve wracking... but an amazing confidence booster. Sometimes people just need to hear good things.

Fingers crossed everyone. I hope I get it. =)
