I’m kinda made because I couldn’t find my good gymshoes for all that walking. I bet my son did something weird with my shoes or worse, threw them away.

Anyway, we are on our way back and my soles hurt a little. I had to wear my walking shoes but now I think I would have been better off with sandles. We have some good pics and took a small video. I’m going to test out the new blogger feature and see how it looks.

I doubt if I ever get to the point of no food unless its a survival static and we all know with the way our economy is going, we can never be too cautious.

The first thing I noticed was my head feeling funny. It wasn’t like a headache, but I wanna say it was like my head was full? That sounds kinda weird even as I write it. Head full, more like I’m full of it right! LOL

Anyway, one of my main goals is improving my eyesight without the help of lazer surgery. And of course, less stress. The less stress part seems to be working first. But then again, the kids are back in school, so I try to be realistic about it. But its still a good time to start. Jumping into something of this nature is not something you want to do when you’re high strung.

Don’t you hate it when you try to have some alone time in the tub and a 2yr old is banging on the door pissed off because they want to join mommy. How I wish they understood the importance of mommy time.

Heck, I wish grown men understood that too.

Maybe I will ask the sun.

The recommended time to sungaze is either sunrise or sunset. I’m facing east so I’ll stick to the sunrise while the kids are still sleep or right before I get my daughter off to school. So far I kinda treat it like my coffee in the morning.

I haven’t been ground yet and I understand the benefits of sun tea. Since I’m with melaleuca, I use the tea tree tea, and it is perfect for sun tea. Esp the apple berry. I don’t need sugar at all.

Well I guess that’s enough of my rant for today.

See ya later world.

Spamming with viruses is becoming a real issue on the internet because people are so deperate in building a list that they will do anything for it. Not even realizing if the software is viral or not.

All I can tell you is be extremely careful and try to remember to do a scan either during lunchbreaks, or if you’re working at home, during your cleaning hours or right before you go to bed.

So people install software that run automatic. I don’t really use this function. I rather just make it part of my routine to keep me on task and in order. Its sort of like a mind game.

Anyway. To all my mobile bloggers, “See ya on the virus battlefield”!

I finally made my calenders and customizing Thunderbird with Firefox.

It’s alot better than Outlook. You should check it out. They have a grocery list generator to help with my goals.

Well.. well.. well..  we are getting more roles in ads and commercials, but we are still saying it’s bad? Another Black History Month enlightenment. sheeeesh
Man.. we are nickpicking on too many issues.  Yes, I understand the level of a bad image, but that’s just how big black women are.

Many due have very strong personalities to offset the facts of being overweight or to reduce the changes of being abused.

The problem I have with this article, is this is what alot of overweight individuals do no matter what race it is.  There’s plenty of loud, aggressive skinny black women out here too.

Haven’t you seen the movies or shows where the fat kid or adult was the comedian?  Or they had alot of friends, but no girl/boyfriend?

Now we have the movie with Eddie Murphy that’s pretty much doing the same thing.  And lets not forget the movie with Queen Latifah and Steve Martin.. come on!!

It will always be this way.. there’s no way around this.  They can try to label bad stereotypes if they want to, but even if they lose the weight, their personalities will not change.

Wow.. is it really true?  Is the reason we have so much distruction in our african american lives is because we don’t get hitched?

Well..I can believe it.  When foreigners hit me up on instant messenger they are shocked I’m not hitched yet.  Even though my parents been married ever since I was born.  It makes me wonder why I didn’t follow in their footsteps.  Was it the environment?

Hmm.. Well, in the article,

At the low-income end, the disproportionate incarceration, unemployment and early death of black men make them unavailable for marriage. At the upper-income level, it is the fact that black women are far likelier than black men to complete high school, attend college and earn the professional credentials that would render them “eligible” for marriage.

Hmm.. now this may have been my problem.  Well, I only had one boyfriend who has a father in their life, and still do NOW.  It is a wonder, but then again, he still having problems with his relationships, and when we were together, that was back in high school and early college days.  The “M” word wasn’t in the vocabulary yet!

Then you have the fatherless women that have a different view on men all together, then in turn, change the men on how they look at women.. and on and on.  It’s like an ongoing virus.

Fatherless boys (as a general rule) become ineligible to be husbands — though no less likely to become fathers — and their children fall into the patterns that render them ineligible to be husbands.

The absence of fathers means, as well, that girls lack both a pattern against which to measure the boys who pursue them and an example of sacrificial love between a man and a woman.

So what do we have to do, start getting hitched and show some responsibility?  It seems like a BIG thing when a black couple gets married that were from the hood, and it’s also a shame I haven’t been to any of my peers weddings?  Most of my friends never got, or I don’t see, getting married either.  But the article holds true.  If you’re parents are not married, your aunts and uncles not married, your friend’s parents not married, your neighbors not married… then how would you know HOW TO BE MARRIED? 

I never thought I could finally take a break. I’ve been very diffucult chosing the right software and features I wanted for the site.

Don’t worry though, my next step is to make plenty of tutorials for it.

So stop by.. Don’t forget to submit an informative article or review about anything.

Esp Soul food recipes.. I’ve been looking for alot of those.

Have to get ready for the turkey!!

See ya guys later

According to IDC, a research firm in Framingham, Mass, the number of people who are employed at home should grow from 10 million in 1999 to 13.5 million in 2003.People who work at home are 20% more productive than office workers outside the home.People who work from home for employers work longer hours than those who work outside the home, averaging approximately 11 hours a day.

This is where my tips become valuable. It’s not only about finding the company that’s outsourcing, but what most people are not telling you is that you need companies to find YOU!!!

As you know by the EEOC http://www.eeoc.gov/fact s/telework.html people with disabilities can file for work at home for reasonable accommodations.

Many employers have discovered the benefits of allowing employees to work at home through telework (also known as telecommuting) programs. Telework has allowed employers to attract and retain valuable workers by boosting employee morale and productivity. Technological advancements have also helped increase telework options. President George W. Bush’s New Freedom Initiative emphasizes the important role telework can have for expanding employment opportunities for persons with disabilities.

But what I want people to understand is that these accommodations are not just limited to people with disabilities. It’s just to make sure that people with disabilities don’t have their rights violated. Anyone can request to outsource their currents jobs or feature these accomodations in resumes while looking for work. You think that the raising gas prices and the cost of health care is kicking you in the butt? It’s taking it’s toll on employers too. And we have to fight for our jobs in the US.

Example: You are a single mom, an accountant, with two kids. You’re spending an average of $50 a week on gas, $200 a week on daycare, and $10 a week on clothes, beauty salons, nails, etc.. for some women that’s even more! Let’s say your salary is $60,000 a year. That’s almost $10,000 extra you are spending to work outside the home. This is what you negociate with your employer. You are willing to take a reduction in your yearly salary to $50,000 to work your same job at home. All you need is software programs. And thanks to programs like “GoToMyPC”, an employer may consider your proposal.

This is also an excellent incentive to put on resumes when looking for work. An employer may be hiring for a starting salary of $50,000 but on your resume, you are willing to do the same work for less if you’re are outsourcing the position. Many employers may not have taking this into consideration, and it makes you stand out from other applicants. Like stated in the IDC, it’s always been an issue of Americans losing employment to overseas and we have to put ourselves in the positions for the work, not waiting for employers to put out ads about telecommuting and work at home jobs.

So please, don’t look at google ads about work at home jobs. A company is not putting a google ad out there for the world to see, just to fill a few positions. I know there are many help guides and ebooks people have out here on the net about how to find a work at home job. And making big money selling their advice. Look.. take it from a woman that actually have a work at home job and business. It’s all about common sense. Use this tips wisely, and look for that perfect work at home job just like a regular job.
