WHO ARE YOU?? - "P"

Hello there, Lovebugs! It's your girl Mackgurl here with another installment of my WHO ARE YOU? series. Today's guest is "P". She has agreed to let us take a quick peak into well, who she is and what she does.

Mackgurl: Hi P. Thank you so much for agreeing to sit with me today and for letting the Blogosphere take a peak into your life.
P: My pleasure.
Mackgurl: So P, tell us a bit about what you do...for work...I mean if you want to give us the 411 on some stuff you do in your free time, I'm happy to hear it LOL
P:  LOL hmmm well, I have been working in the medical field for about 15 years now and my current job title is Patient Navigation Associate. 
Mackgurl: Oooh so you're like a human GPS for patients.
P: LOL I never thought about it like that but yes, I suppose so. I meet and greet patients and visitors in a kind and compassionate manner. I assist them physically -  if they are in need of wheelchair assistance - and verbally with directions to their appointment locations, department or even where to go for coffee and food.
Mackgurl: WOW! So you're the lady with ALL the answers. Good stuff!
P: HAHA I don't know if I would say ALL of the answers but I will definitely do my best to make sure you get the most accurate information needed. I also train and work with our volunteers to ensure they are familiar with and current on procedures and policies. A key part of this is to make sure they are comfortable with talking to our patients. Talking to patients and visitors helps to establish a relationship. Even this brief connection is a great way to provide excellent customer service.
Mackgurl:  You're right! That does make for A-1 customer service. Your job sounds like an important one - tell me, what do you like most about what you do?
P: I would say meeting new people and providing assistance to those in need. I love to put a smile on someone's face.
Mackgurl: I know the feeling lol. Ok now would you say there's anything that you don't like about what you do? 
P: Hmm...nothing much about WHAT I do but maybe WHEN I do... for instance working on weekends and holidays. You don't know for sure when or if you're going to get a break. I understand though - patient care does not stick to a regular schedule.
Mackgurl: True true...Well thank you so muchfor taking the a quick moment to speak with me today and for letting us get a glimpse of what you do.
P: It was my pleasure, Mackgurl.
Mackgurl: Before I really let you go back to patient GPSing, lol...I have to ask you my favorite question of all of the questions -  WHO ARE YOU?
P:  I am a mother of 3 kids that I love so much. I'm a wife who enjoys being married and has been married for about 13 years now. I am a baker, a sister,  a singer, a dancer. I enjoy dressing up and changing my look from time to time. I am a church-going woman, a woman who enjoys helping those in need. I am a woman who loves life.

And just like that, guys and dolls, another installment of  my WHO ARE YOU? series is complete. If you are interested in letting us know about you, what you do, what makes you, well YOU, send me and email. I'm looking forward to asking you, WHO ARE YOU?

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
