Good Monday Afternoon!!

Oh my.

It is MONDAY.

My birthday vacation is officially OVER.

Well not really. I called my boss and asked if I could take an extra day off. She said no. I have some training this week and I was supposed to be there at 8 a.m. (I called her at 8 from the bed. I was waaaay under the covers).

I got up, got my clothes together, took a shower and was getting dressed... when she texted me and said that my first day wasn't until Tuesday. So I could take the day off.

*lee throwing off all her clothes and diving head first back into bed*

LOL

I got back in the bed for an hour. Then I got up and took some meds. Then I spent some time reading some blogs, and crocheting. I am watching the news right now.

That training is all week. My boss sent the schedule, but I still don't understand it. She's going to have to explain it to me like I'm a two-year-old. I hope the trainers have themselves together this time. It is a pilot program test, and a waste of time.

However, I received some strange cash award for participating last year. I think it was like,$250, or something like that. If I would've know that, I wouldn't have been as surly about it. II never volunteer for anything. Never cute when management volunteers me for something. No, not a good look.). And it didn't help that I had to work half a Saturday to make up some of my regular work. That piece of change softened my frown... just a little.

It is raining cats and dogs here in Georgia. And I thought a leak was repaired in an upstairs bedroom. NOPE! Ugh, gotta deal with that again. It is a slow leak in a vent, but when it rains hard, I can tell a difference. But I will call and get that taken care of, pronto.

Like I said, I am crocheting right now, too. Here are a couple of pics.

 I can even fold it now.

Getting big. Very quickly!

It builds up quickly when it is small. It is bigger now, and it will be awhile before noticeable changes will be seen. But it's always fun to start something new and it grow so fast.

Whitney Houston. Today is the first anniversary of Whitney Houston's death.

Rest in peace, Whitney Houston. I sure do miss your music. I will be listening to some of my favorite hits today.

Grammys.  I caught half of it last night, as I was watching something else earlier on TV. Man, I hate to say it, but I don't know who most of those people were. I don't listen to current radio.

I remember the days when I couldn 't wait until the Grammys came on. And I stopped being interested right after the days of Jodeci and Mary J Blige... round that time.

Why does EVERYONE hate Alicia Keys so much? Wow! Someone please explain it to me. Is it because of the whole situation with her hubby Swizz Beats, and how she was with him while he was still married?  Ya'll still caught up on that?

You know how many people are in those types of situations? Heck, even I've fooled with a married man in the past. And I did it ON PURPOSE.

Heck no, I don't condone that mess. Not in the least. But ya'll still upset with her about that?

Maybe it's something else. But she gets lit up on twitter every time she shows up on the TV. Please explain!

Song of the Week. I yearn for the days of music I can understand. Here's my song of the week. I've been listening to this this past week.




Good music. Good lyrics, even though the subject matter is suspect and ratchet. But the song tells a good story, and I can understand what they are saying. That's what I like about it. Good story. And Rachelle Ferrell is playing and singing on this cut? Wow!

I love good pure music with some good musicality. That is rare to hear these days.

Hey, I wouldn't really know because I don't listen to the current stuff.

Am I getting old? :(

No, I am getting BETTER! *throws glitter*

That's all for today! The drawing will be tomorrow.

Alright ya'll... I posted up some blog posts this weekend. The birthday sweepstakes is still on. Comment for a chance to win a $43 gift card in my 43rd birthday sweepstakes...
