Good evening, Bloggers.
It's been a dizzying few weeks. Work demands and trying to get ready for vacation. Plus it is now my birthday month. Yay for May!!!! So I am going to try to be in here at least once a week to recap the countdown to 49. I am really excited.
About Me
- Newy
- Mother of 2, Child of God in DMV "They always ask me if I make it am I going to forget about them, but the question is, if I don't make it will they forget about me?" My spin : RealTalk When u are up everyone wants to hang on, but look for the ones that let you lean on when you are down. Remember...don't just look for me when I am up, support me when I'm down. ♥ In prosperity, your friends know you, in adversity, you know your friends. I asked God for strength, I got adversity. I asked God for wisdom, I was made a fool of. I asked for patience, I had a difficult relationship. I looked back, He gave me what I asked for. Adversity showed me I was stronger than I thought; being a fool opened my eyes to discernment making me wise; the difficult relationship showed me that patience is earned not given. Blessings come in many forms, not all of them recognizable.

Time is Money
I'm annoyed. I clearly seem to be the only one in the house that values time.
When going to a 6pm class, my husband will leave at 5:30. Which leaves no "just in case time". You know, just in case traffic is bad, just in case he needs to stop...instead he has "I just may make it by 5 after" syndrome. Yet he sees nothing wrong with this.
My younger son is the same way and it burns my biscuit. He will leave the condo at 7:15 to catch the bus that comes at 7:19. More often than not, he misses the bus.
I was in the Navy for 8 years, to be late is to be ontime therefore be early. That was my motto. It still is. If I have to be somewhere at 9, I leave at 7:45, to account for traffic and whatnot. This usually gives me time to collect myself before I go in to the meeting or appointment. If someone tells me an event starts at 7, I want to be there at 7. I get annoyed when my husband isn't ready. This happened while we were on vacation. The family had dinner scheduled for 8 and he was not ready to leave the hotel until 7:45. It was a half an hour ride. By 8:05 the family was calling me (they are sticklers for time just like I am) and I was sitting in the passenger seat fuming.
I am trying to break out of this. Trying not to be so easily annoyed. But it's not working.
Today, my son had a doctor's appointment at 2:15. At 2:12 I was getting text messages asking about the address for the GPS. grrrrrr Are you for real?!?!?!?!? At 2:33 I was getting a phone call asking about the suite number. You're kidding right?!?!?!?!?!?!? I am trying not to be annoyed but I can't stand tardiness. Am I being unreasonable?
