V-Day Delights...


Valentine's Day is tomorrow. Are you ready? For what, you ask? Well for all of the faces of the hopeful...those waiting at their work place. For whom? For what? Well duh, for the most sought after, looked for, hoped for person of the day - THE FLORAL DELIVERY PERSON!! Every single time the door opens tomorrow, the masses will wait and hope with baited breath...eyes will widen and swing to and fro and then zero in on the door...all waiting to see who will receive the first/next/best/biggest/ delivery. Roses, tulips, orchids, lilies and that's not all. Stuffed animals, boxes of chocolates and balloons of various colors/sizes/shapes will be arriving en masse.
Oh and it's not just the workplace that will have this influx of floral bouquets. High Schools will be even worse, I mean will see even more deliveries. Flowers, baskets, balloons, banners and posters! And the various school organizations gets in on this heavy. Cue the PA... "FOR $3.00 YOU CAN HAVE A ROSE DELIVERED TO YOUR SECRET CRUSH DURING THE DAY. ALL PROCEEDS BENEFIT YOUR STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION"      Now after that announcement, maaaaannnn the students are watching the door in each one of their classes...waiting and speculating on who will be receiving a rose (Ha! Don't believe me. How many of you watch or know of a show about who receives a flower? IJS)
And then it happens (cue the PA again) "MRS. JOHNSON? WILL YOU PLEASE SEND TIFFANY DAVIS TO THE OFFICE?"  This announcement is met with oooohs and whispers and speculation as to why Tiffany is being called to the office. Tiffany herself wonders...panics? Is she in trouble?! Did something hap-and then she remembers what day it is. IT'S VALENTINE'S DAY!!!! Now she can't get out the door and to the office fast enough! When she returns she's not empty handed. Oh no, not even close!She comes back to class, arms laden with a vase of roses, a teddy bear that's at least 4 feet tall, a dozen heart-shaped balloons, a box of chocolates...and the biggest toothpaste-commercial smile ever!!!image.png
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Ok I will behave...is this better?

This year, I decided to do something a little different for Valentine's Day. I am taking VACATION!! That's right! I will NOT be in the office tomorrow. I will not be waiting with baited breath for a floral delivery or any other sort of delivery. I will be on VACATION. Where am I going? Oh, I'm not going anywhere. I just took the day off to give folks a reason to speculate. I figure it's MY gift to them.
XOXO,

Oscar Chronicles - All By Myself

  Hola, mis amigos. I'm not going to ask if you missed me because - well, I already know you did. But more than that, I'm not going to ask because I'm sad, angry and hungry. Okay, perhaps I'm always interested in some snacks...Anyway, your Oscar is sad. Why? Is because a couple of weeks ago mi persona favorito decided to remodel his room. No really! He took all of the things out of the room - even my bed! At first I was angry thinking that he was kicking me out! He even took down his posters and emptied his closet! But then I started seeing him bringing some stuff back. Several pairs of his zapatos, some shirts and chaquetas. Some things he even put in the basura! Things that were too small or too old - you know how they do, right? So yes,  A MAJOR CLEANING. His room was like SUPER CLEAN.  He and his Papa also bought in new stuff. New zapatos, shirts, pants. The new stuff he put into a new bag. Nice! Good storage. It even has wheels!! So he can move it around a lot easi

Podcast #1

Yay! I've finally figured out how to get the recordings to show up on my blog. So this one is a actually a test recording. But I'm playing around here, so don't expect radio quality...at least not yet 😜 This first one is a recording of a post currently up on my blog titled Hostage Negotiations. May just add the recorded versions for those who'd rather listen than read. Plus, this new app has some pretty nifty features that I cannot wait to try out! Hostage podcast Peace, Mackgurl

Being Strong Is Not for the Weak

Sometimes you may get tired and fed up. I mean come on, life has a way of testing you…and I mean way worse than any pop quiz you might have had. Sometimes the test starts small. Broke a nail after a fresh manicure? Hit your shin on the corner of the bed? (ouch). Then maybe it ramps up to you dropping your brand new cell phone face down on the pavement…while trying to put on the screen protector. Ugh! That sucks, right? Then there are household bills...sure you have some, right?  Yeah, they eat away a good chunk of your paycheck but you’re managing. Then a major appliance dies…then some shingles fall off your roof.. Sucks but ok. It seems like one thing after another after another. Sigh... but somehow you’re standing strong and making do, holding on. And then…car issues start happening…flat tires, brakes need replacing and then transmission blows! What?!! But you’ve got to be strong right? You’re an adult and you can and have to deal with these things. You can manage, right? Yeah? So w
