THE RAIN IS COMING..........

Why is it that black women are extremely afraid of rain? Tonight when I got off from work it was raining. All of the women with the "wash and go" hair walked in the rain to get to their cars. Where as the sisters with the "process" hair, waited for the security van to bring them to their cars. LOL A sister will not come close to any type of water. It is extremely too much work and takes too much time to style our hair. Can you imagine me running with a pizza box over my head to get in my house. LOL Sisters I know you understand where I'm coming from. "Rain rain go away and don't come back in the day, come at night when a sister is asleep." LOL

Be Obedient!!!

Today was a day. I went to work today, at a hospital, on an alright note. When I arrived on the floor they told me I was being pulled to another floor. I was pissed. No one likes to work on this particular floor. I wasn't trained on this floor. So, I started to ask my friend to go for me, and let me stay on my normal floor. Then something said just go ahead. Well when I got to the floor the morning aids began to give me report. One of the patients names was the same as one of my aunts that I haven't seen in years. So I'm going to each patient taking vitals, when I entered her room it didn't seem like the same lady I remembered. Well some years have lapsed since I last saw her. So we are looking at each other strange. I look at her paper to see the age, and I'm thinking that should be her age. So a few minutes went by, I figured I would ask her where she was from. She smirked and answered New Orleans. I asked if she was my aunt from the Ninth ward. She said she guess she is. LOL My heart smiled. This is an aunt I haven't seen in years. I told her who I was and she was so happy. She said she didn't know she had family in Texas, and she's extremely happy to see me. I tell you today I was almost disobedient, by asking my friend to switch floors with me. God does everything for a reason and we must be obedient. If I didn't go I would not have seen her. God is good. He is so God. * Grabbing a tissue* Thank you!!!

Five years ago!!!

Do you ever take the time to look at your life? Where you are now? How much you've been blessed with? You know how people always ask you where you see yourself in five years. As for me, I didn't see myself here. LOL Well career wise I should be a Doctor by now. God took me on another path. He's allowing me to experience different things, which will make me stronger. At times I get upset, because I haven't accomplished my goals. So on the days that I'm upset God makes me realize all that he has blessed me with, it's soooo much. The main one is LIFE. Last month I was in the mirror getting dressed. It hit me, at the beginning of last year I said I didn't want to be Twenty-five living with my mother. LOL I made it out before my bday. When I used to stand at the bus stop in the rain, I would say I wanted a car, and I didn't have a drivers license. LOL Well right after I got my license I bought a brand new car. I just want to say Thank You God!!! I didn't expect to be here.

I'm on BREAK!!!

I must have a sign on my forehead,"please talk to me." Everywhere I go someone is talking to me telling me the craziest things. I'm at work, I leave the floor for break to get away, and my break is interrupted by someone talking to me. It happens almost all of the time. Can I please enjoy my BREAK.

That's Ms. Harvey to you!!

Today I was at the doctor for my weekly appointment, and today she did it again. The receptionist greeted me by my first name. Maybe I'm wrong, but that is sooooo unprofessional. I never gave anyone permission to address me by my first name. I noticed some of the older clients being addressed appropriately, Mr./Mrs. I don't recall shooting marbles with her. To top it off, she makes sure she say " bye girl." GIRL!!! No..... that's Ms. Harvey to you!!
