Let's Exercise!

Hey! It's been a minute since I chatted with you guys, so I thought we could jump back in with a little exercise! Yay!!
Now come on - don't be like that. A little exercise never hurt anyone..okay perhaps these people might have gotten hurt:
 
 But that's NOT the type of exercise I mean. Close your eyes - WAIT! You can't read if your eyes are closed. Hmm ok so keep your eyes open and picture the one person who makes you smile. That one person who you just can't wait to see, be around, call, text, whatever...(Bet you're grinning already). See, that person didn't even have to be around - you didn't call them, you didn't text them - all you did was think about them and now you're grinning.

How do they do it? How do they make you smile like a Cheshire cat? Maybe it's a shared memory between the two of you or maybe it's the way their eyes light up, full on sparkle when they see you. Or the way your stomach flutters and flips when you think of them...that one time they walked towards you and you suddenly got excited and nervous (Oh YES! I know that feeling oh so well, LOL) And because they have this effect on you, you are suddenly reminded of them at random times, by random things. Like what? Well, how about if you're in the mall and someone walks past you wearing the very same cologne/perfume that they wear? Or you hear a cellphone ringtone that sounds exactly like theirs or the one you have saved for them when they call you? 

Ok so now you have a good image of them in your mind, right? You can see their face? Almost smell their cologne/perfume? Yeah? Great! Now imagine that person is now giving all those smiles to someone else...OUCH, right?! You know why this happened? Because you took them and their smile inducing abilities for granted. You didn't appreciate those smiles and if you did, you failed to let them know - through words and or actions - how special they were to you. 

Now go and make sure they know they are special to you. Call them. Text them. Tell them. Show them. Thank them. Yes, that's right, thank them. For what? For the opportunity to be with them. For the you that you are because of them. Do it today before you have to face a forever of tomorrows without them.

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
