Greetings to all you peoples.

Happy late Memorial Day to all! I know I'm late but ah well, I just wasn't in a writing mood yesterday so it just didn't get said. I hope everyone had fun with family and friends, I hope lots of food was consumed and that you all had fun swimming or whatever it was you did. As for me, I didn't do much of anything. It was soooooooo hot and humid that I decided that i was gonna stay inside where it was cool. There are definite advantages to living six feet under, it tends to stay somewhat cool in the house. It can still get pretty humid which is pretty nasty but the temps are alright.
I came across this recipe that I was going to post before Memorial Day because I thaught that it would make a nice dessert to bring to a picnic. There were actually two of them but I decided to just post the one for today. I have had different variations of this but I found this one to be very very good because it has all my favorite fruits on it. One of the ingredience it calls for is orange marmalade or Apple jelly, I choose the apple jelly because well, if I had to be completely honest with myself on this issue, I can't stand the taste of orange marmalade. *grins*

The best Fruit Pizza

1 tube refrigerated sugar cookies
1/2 c. apple jelly or orange marmalade
2 tubs cheesecake flavored spreadable cream cheese
1 pt. strawberries
1 pt. blueberries
3 kiwi fruit
mandarin oranges (optional)

Preheat oven to 350F. Cut cookies into slices. Arrange on ungreased
pizza pan and press together to form a crust. Bake for 12 - 15 minutes
or until just golden. Cool crust.

Spread cream cheese over cooked crust. Arrange fruit in decorative
pattern over top of cream cheese. Melt jelly or marmalade in the
microwave for 30 seconds or until liquefied; stir. Brush melted jelly
over top of fruit. This aids in keeping fruit fresh and gives it a nice
sheen. Refrigerate and cut into wedges.

ENJOY!!!!!!

So I'm sitting here at work and i'm not sure whether to be amused or freaked out...The wind is blowing really really hard and it keeps blowing our office door open. It's really freaky because I have never been in that kind of a situation before, oddly enough it's the same reason why I'm amused. Strange I know but that's me. I don't mind being strange because it's what keeps me apart from the ones who define themselves as normal. What's normal anyway? LOL!

I told you all about my new friends I made and I'm not sure anymore what to think. I have learned two things
1. They are really into drama it seems. Everytime I talk to them there seems to be one dramatic thing or another going on and I am just too old for that. I just hate drama with a passion!
And 2. If you do or say one thing wrong it seems that they treat you as if you are an outcast. They all jump all over you and kick you out of the skype call or chat window without telling you they are doing it. It's almost like they shun you until you apologize to them for being who you are.
Oh and there's a third thing i have learned and that is, if you are friends with someone they don't approve of or that they quote, end quote hate, they all jump allover you until you end the friendship with the person they are all against. Can we say high school all over again? I mean come on, childish much?
There are a few who are pretty cool however and I'll be hopefully keeping in touch with them. I need to have a one on one with one of them to see if I can get some things straightened out. I still like all of them I just need to talk to some of them and see if I can get things fixed. I apparently was kicked out of the chat window for no apparent reason. The last message I saw from them indicated to me that I had done or said something wrong. Not sure what but whatev', I'll work it out. I don't like all the drama though, I can do without all of that mess. My above stated feelings still stand however.

Well, I'm off for now. I'm in the last 45 minutes of work and then I'm going out with Deborah. I think I'm gonna go and see if i can get a couple of new shirts for work. Don't know what I'll find but it's worth a look anyhow.

Dear readers,

Here, have a quiz. It's been ages since I last posted any kind of quiz. I used to be a total quiz fanatic but now not so much. I still find them fun once in a while. Anyway, have this one.



You Are Extremely Empathetic



Whenever someone you love feels a certain way, you can't help but feel that way too.

The emotions of others deeply affect you, and it's easy for you to be moved to laughter or tears.



You are very in tune with your surroundings. You immediately pick up on the vibe of a room.

You don't like to see anyone feeling discomfort or pain. You want to make everyone around you as happy as possible.




So what this quiz tells me is something about myself I already knew, I'm an empath. There are times I wish I weren't because at times when I go out the moods and emotions of all the people surrounding me can get overwhelming. Those are definite times i come home and go, "Ok, I need quiet and a bit of down time. I need to get my own emotions back in order." Usually after a bit of down time I'm generally ok again.

Life has been a big mess of emotions for the past few weeks. From finding out about my friend cori's suicide, another friend of mine being diagnosed with lung cancer, my grandmother getting weaker and weaker by the day and learning that I became an aunt again to a beautiful baby boy named Logan Reece and finding out that he may die because he was born prematurely and his lungs were underdeveloped, I think i am losing it. I find myself asking when will it end? I don't think I can take much more of being given anymore bad news. I keep getting asked if i'm ok, the answer is, physically yes i'm fine however mentally is another story. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Sorry, tention braker. i'm sorry you guys don't need to read all this negative stuff but right now it's all i can feel. I mean I go through my days smiling and laughing acting as if nothing's wrong but it's getting harder and harder to keep that up even. i go to bed at night and force myself not to cry myself to sleep because of everything going on. I hate traitor tears.

On a much happier note, I love work. I'm finally on their payroll officially and it feels nice. Yesterday, I ended up working from home due to transportation issues because of the weather. I called my boss and he was very understanding. He offered to come and get me but he had trouble leaving the office. He asked if he could forward the phones to my house and i work from home and I was all for that idea. I got to stay home and I got to still work at the same time. I told Jason that was fun and he said that he wouldn't mind if I did that sometimes.

Tomorrow I get to do an interview for the annual report for MRCI. Apparently I will make the front page. Tom is very happy with my success in graduating from the Fast track program and getting my job out of doing the internship. So I get to do my interview, have my picture taken and I get to be in a video. The video will be shown to people and showing that there is success out of the programs that MRCI runs. The annual report itself goes out to thousands of people I guess so i'm nervous about the interview and i hate having my picture taken. LOL! It should go ok though.

Well, I suppose that's it from here for now. I could go on and on about things but I don't feel like writing anymore at the moment.

<3<3<3hugs and love to my readers<3<3<3
