And Action...

Image
 Well, it got me! The flu has temporarily moved in... As I explained to the oldest this morning, the last 2 months, adding into account this whole year; it's done me in and I am sick. I must be sick, this cup of coffee I am drinking is the worst I have ever had! Nothing tastes right, nothing feels right and my body is a discombobulation that needs to be laying in bed and not at the computer. {although while I have coherent thoughts I must write} The list of re-do's is heavy in the frontal lobe. {being in a relationship is not one of them} In between the last 2 days of moving slow and repetitive couch action, I mustered up enough energy to whip up a lasagna for Christmas Eve and a pork shoulder roast {pulled pork} roasted carrots and au gratin potatoes for Christmas dinner. Upon awakening yesterday, I made my Christmas morning cinnamon brown sugar muffins for breakfast. They are a big hit! Just ask Sug {dog} she ate 2 this morning while we were still sleeping! It was the most I ...

I Know What I Bring To The Table

 Can I just say, I am thrilled to be off work today and tomorrow! People and their brutality! 30 years in food and beverage and the general public just gets worse! Most could not do my job; any of my jobs!!! Yesterday alone I put in 16000 steps within a 6-hour shift. Pulling myself up into the truck to go home was almost impossible! We all know this year has been challenging at best but please do not pull your entitlement card on your server. Pay for the food you order and do not try to pull that I didn't get it routine! How bout for the love of manners and common courtesy clean up after your children! You may let them live like little cute piggies in your house but allowing them to throw food on the floor, break the crayons, and tear their coloring page because you as the parent can't control them is absurd. Can I mention also, if your server says let me clean a table and you have to wait another 10 mins for it; understand the tables and customers she is already taking care of...

Take What Resonates

 I have a few words to share! A few Kit-isms that most need to be aware of and learn from... things I have cultivated from that might help you to see a clearer view. Let me reiterate, I studied psychology and life coaching, between the years of 2014-2016. I found the topic interesting and specialized in certain subjects that I could relate to from situations I personally had experience with. I had already studied in college, communication, journalism, and theatre so the new form of learning new topics from scholar mentors allowed me to learn adding to what I already had prepared for; how to monetize their theories through art enrichment classes and content creation. {I am not responsible for how people feel or react in these matters} It is your accountability for yourself and what I generally say that should make you reflect on your own thoughts and behaviors. *side note people do not like change! Typically because the manipulation tactics they have developed to cope with their own...

Let Them and Leave Them To...The Same

Image
 I am tired and I am freezing! Today was one of those days when the chill just bit through me. It was also one of the days when my brain was overloaded. To think this hard makes me want to sleep and sleep deep. Turn it off and let it all play out in some serendipitous fashion. Every detail of the methodical thoughts. I live a charmed life and I am a lucky girl!  I am tired and if I go sit on the couch it will be nite nite time. Something about the cold and deep thoughts, it's mentally grueling. I will briefly touch on, other than some holiday decor... shopping has yet to begin and it is weighing deeply in the gray matter, Along with ambiguity and ubiquitous specifics! #supracalifragilisticexpialidocious  To get through the holidays is my goal like everyone else I am sure. The kid and I are going back and forth about what to cook? What sounds good? and does it even matter? IDK maybe a roast this year with all the fixn's... throw it in the Dutch oven one and done.., do a ca...

Understand The Terms and Conditions

 It is Sunday. I have a few hours before I leave the house. Writing keeps me on top of thoughts, momentive efforts, and creative endeavors, and it releases some of the noise that filters through my mind. This morning, I sat at my sewing machine cutting and stitching for work Christmas gifts. Small trinkets for my appreciation of the jobs they do for me!!!! {Besides it keeps me off of my phone. The overload of information is too much on most days} While I am concentrating on stitches and combining fabrics, I am going over in my head, the materials needed for my Life Coaching classes. To be cohesive in matters is so imperative for my students to understand when we are discussing certain areas in their life. As I have stated on numerous occasions, it's the relationship house we discuss the most with money and finances following a close 2nd. I remind we are products of our environments and what we have witnessed in our family dynamics growing up plays a huge factor in our adult life. E...

It Is Alchemy

Image
 This week's intentions have gone unfulfilled, not because of lack of effort but due to the inclement weather the bipolar temperatures, and the general public's lack of funds my outside gig fell short by 10 hours. Typically I work 5 shifts a week at one establishment roughly 5-6 hrs a shift that on normal terms I yield about a 100.00 day in tips. My 6th shift at another gig one night a week when needed usually funds a walking stipend of 125-250.00 depending on the event. Last month 2 events were canceled it's the nature of the beast. The stretching and rendering of these tils make my world go around. I have lived a life like this for 30 years. It is what I have done to raise kids, own a home and maintain a vehicle up until this year! I have one young adult still at home. I really do not ever see that changing.  Although he is a very independent and a good working kid, his 2 current jobs do not pay enough for him to live elsewhere. If he wanted to move out, it would be his c...
