January felt like a year... but we made it.

I am where I am today solely because of my hard work and merit. I understand my job, and I get things done. If I held my position just to fulfill some quota, I would not want that job.

I've been following the crazy lawsuit involving Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively, and I can’t help but wonder—what is going on? I know what is going on... I'm just amazed at how far a person will go, when they are wrong. (I experienced this)

Fraud, waste, and abuse are serious issues, and we have an obligation to report such wrongdoing. This is actually why I got fired. I witnessed my ex-manager making purchases and expenditures that only benefited him. I reported this to the State Auditor's office because, as a public employee when you only suspect fraud, waste and abuse, you are to report it. When you see it that's a whole new ball game... As a taxpayer, I don’t want my money spent on unnecessary projects like a new Sesame Street show in Iraq. I would prefer my tax dollars be used to address the pressing issues here at home, like fixing our government.

One of these days I will tell my story. It's been a long road.

Phew!!!... thank God our diet cokes and McDonald's won't be banned.

hahaha. I have to laugh. First of all, I don't drink diet coke or any coke for that matter but for those people that do, and yes, I order a cheeseburger every now and then from Mcdonalds.

People love to create chaos and stir shit up.

You know what I think... People are losing their damn minds.

Growing up we were such skinny kids, my brothers and sisters. None of us had weight issues. We also played outside all day, were in sports, and dance, and did stuff. My mom would cook every day, whole foods. We never went to eat fast foods, but maybe once in a blue moon. I'm talking once every 6 months. So heavy kids were in the minority when I went to school, maybe one for the whole school. This country needs to get back to healthy. I'm all for that. Too many politicians making money off of vaccines and pharmaceutical companies, it's insane. Let's create obesity, then let's create a drug to tackle obesity. What a gimmick.

I can't believe we are still in January... this month is never going to end.

I think I look like Justin Baldoni with this filter.

When people suck the life out of you, they should take some fat too

Update on my phone, I bought a 16-pro max, yay! Because my old phone was over 10years old, I had no idea what my password was to my account, and they locked me out of all my apps for 48 hours. Then after 48 hours I tried to reset my password, and it locked me out for an additional 24 hours. And on and on and on. Soooo I was thinking... I have to be smarter than the phone. I kept my old phone, logged myself out of that account, and created a new one... then on my new phone had to delete each app one by one and then bring them back one by one with my new apple ID. Eeek. What a hassle. But it gave me the chance to clean up all my apps. Then approximately one week after I had my phone, I accidentally submerged it into water. What the Hell? I took it out right away, dried it off, then googled if the 16 was waterproof, and it stated that it could be submerged in water for up to 30 minutes. Wouldn't recommend... but it was fine. Whew.

What a whirlwind January has been. Catch up.

I had to present our building at a board meeting, in December, and they were absolutely horrible. So unprofessional. This was held at the State Capital building in the Governor's cabinet room. After we were demolished by one of the members, I requested the video for my board to review. What happened to the video? I spoke to the Deputy Director of the office, and he tells me that the video is not available because of issues with the Microsoft teams. So basically, the member didn't want anyone to see what an ass she was, and how out of line she was. Interesting.

The D.A.'s spoke with my board on past management. Nothing we can do. No wonder government is corrupt. Dumb shits get away with crap.

We were so wild.

to everyone that signed my 7th grade yearbook. You will be happy to know I did in fact "stay cool".

Although Saturday night, after my husband and I got home from an anniversary party for some friends, we went to feed our animals. (I help him feed because it just gets done faster, plus Brody my pony loves it when I give him little treats). I went into the pen to feed the goats, Julio José Iglesias de la Cueva, he's our latest goat we just got, decided to fight with Juan Fernando Pablo de la chico I got caught in the middle. I had my most favorite pants on, and Julio rammed me and ripped my pants. Unbelievable.

I think Margarita, our girl goat is pregnant... It will be so cute to see her baby goats. I'm thinking February.

PS. Margarita Rosa Maria de la Cruz

Such devastation

Unbelievable, these clowns are running the show, Gavin Newscum the Govenor of California and the Mayor who did not comment on the wildfires ravaging the cities of California. Get the fuck out.

My heart goes out to the people of California, my heart goes out to all the people who has lost their homes and animals. It is unbelievable, that we are still sending money abroad when we have life threatening circumstances here in the United States. (Hence Hurricanes previous damages)

I'm telling you January 20 can't come soon enough.

California hydrants are dry, but Newscums response is that the locals are going to have to figure this out.... What the fucking hell!!!!! Total failure on the leadership of this state. Total failure on planning for disasters and future infrastructures. Who the hell approved cutting the budget to the Firefighters. Fucking dumb asses that don't know how to run the government.

so sad.

if only...

Be a learn it all not know it all.

Now that the holidays are over... Whew... I was able to take two days off of work (right after the new year). Ha. Now I'm hitting the ground running. Which I really can't run, somedays I feel like Herman Munster when I run.

I'm ordering a new phone... Finally, I can't believe it, I'm just worried.... I may look fine, but deep down I don't remember any of my passwords. I'm screwed. I just bit the bullet... and I ordered an iPhone 16 plus. We'll see. To be continued.

Things I wonder about... Why do we have so many apps on our phones, and more than half we don't even use. What the F.

My work forecast for the next couple of weeks, will be... busy, scattered sarcasm with a strong chance of muttered profanities.

For the holidays, my tv watching consisted of Gilmore Girls, (I usually start that show November 1st. and I end it sometime before Christmas) and a new one, Landman. Woah. that tv show is better than Yellowstone. I recommend it.

No resolutions. I never make resolutions. I'm just not a resolution gal.

Great day for America.

PS. I just can't recap Love is blind 7...

I like coffee my yorkies, (yes, I said yorkies) I got another baby, and maybe 3 Chipmunks.

I had the most wonderful dream last night on Christmas. My little lou lou found me again, and I got to hold her.

And the best Christmas spending time with family. It was super nice.

I recently got another yorkie. She's a female, and she's 3. She's only 5 lbs., so she's a tiny wittle girl. She's kind of a rescue dog. Some people had her, and their next-door neighbor dog (bullmastiff) got a hold of her, and drug her around like a rag doll. When she came to me her neck was all shaved where they had to sew her up and she still has teeth marks on the back of her neck. She was on antibiotics. Poor baby girl was very traumatized, and I have a boy yorkie and blue healer, so she was a little skittish around them at first. I've had her for about 3 weeks, and she is doing so much better, and is the cutest little thing. It's like she's always belonged in our family. She does need a haircut; my husband calls her ratatouille.

I was super sick... it felt like I was on my death bed. I couldn't even get out of bed on Christmas Eve. So, for me to pull myself together, on Christmas it was a miracle. My mom had to have been praying the rosary for me. All I kept thinking was I just signed a three-year contract at my job, and this happens. I'm going to be incapacitated and what are they going to do? Their worst fears come to life. I mean at my board meeting on Thursday they literally said, "if you become incapacitated who will be in charge?" That is why I had to put together an organizational chart. It was crazy. On Friday is when I started feeling ill, and I just declined from there. Happy to report I am on the mend and feeling better. It's the craziest thing. I don't know if it was bad guacamole at our Christmas Party or what.

Selling the building did not go good at the meeting. We got tabled to January, and I asked my board chairman to accompany me with our attorney, and realtor. They want my first born. Which he is 31. So, I told them they can have him if they want. He's a pretty tall dude, around 6'4 if they can wrangle him. Haha.

I'm trying to finish up my list of to-dos, and I should have actually been off since the 20th through the 1st, but I'm dedicated and came to work today to make sure all my projects get finished.

I'm pretty much in love with these three little chipmunks, Brittany, Jeanette, and Eleanor. That's not really their names, but they are little chipmunks (they're really the littles), and they're my granddaughters. 6 months, 2, and 3. I was happy to spend some time with them on Christmas day.

Que the Christmas music

shaken not stirred...

I woke up the day of my birthday and rode my bike for 9 miles. And have ridden it 9 miles every day since. Not bad...

I'm knee deep in my audit. Looking for a clean sweep. Will be doing "The Dance". when it's over.

I am always calculating how much sleep I'll get if I can just "fall asleep right now".

I'm constantly smudging my glasses

I'm listening to Christmas music; it makes me happy. Little Drummer boy.... ahhhh it's amazing.

When you run out of places to put Elf on the shelf... take em to the train station. hahahaha.

Somehow, I have no clothes, but I also have so many clothes that I have no room for new clothes.

Glad to see so many embracing therapy. A few of you need an exorcism as well but... baby steps.

In other news...

people are insane when they say President Donald Trump will be sending in the military to blue states to make them behave. bawhahahaha. That kind of rhetoric is fucking hysterical. I don't get why they are able to lie on news shows and spread that shit around.

For fuck's sake, who is even going to "The View" and wants to participate in the audience? Donald Trump needs to send in the military and end that show. hahaha.

and Trump was impeached for trying to investigate all the crimes that Joe Biden just pardoned Hunter over. It's insane. Am I shocked? Not really.

I bury bones.

silhouettes touched  in the sullen air and perhaps the moonlit trees  steal starry glances  from the deep dark sea that glares through her night – I tiptoe like butterflies in a field of poppies  til death might catch up to me  in sleep upon a wounded heart and there, kisses left on the ground of a silent summer wind – the decay of time whispers our name  all too well as my tombstone bleeds unmoving  to catch my bones, I bury

soup mode

This past weekend I went to a soup competition. I made Mexican street corn soup. I made it from scratch, and while it was delicious it didn't win the competition. It actually came in 3rd. There was no money for 3rd place, just 1st and 2nd.

When the cold weather hits, I'm definitely a soup person.

The fights? I was so pumped to see Mike Tyson which I profess I am a big boxing fan. And I used to have great parties in the 90's for the Mike Tyson fights. Granted they only lasted 2 minutes, but he was 30 years younger, c'mon. I don't know what to think about this fight.

My energy is off today. I can feel it. The super moons left me drained.

Tomorrow I'll be giving a presentation on our organization. I put together a PowerPoint. I am currently on two boards, Emergency Management board for my county, and the recycling coalition for my state. It's a great way to network and come together for the sake of the community.

I don't mind speaking at functions. In fact, I think it's what I'm best at.

I'm reading some really good books, "about the CIA. "Twilight of the shadow government, "The Secret Team", "The real Watergate scandal." I love history, I want to know more.

Plus: at sometime I'll have to recap season 7 of love is blind.

Things I know to be true:

Comedy needs to come back 100%... and they shouldn't apologize for anything. People need to get over their sensitive ass.

America is sick and needs healing, God has spoken let's say Amen.

Feminists are shaving their heads so you can identify them immediately. Wait... is that a cult?

Liberal women have taken oaths to stop procreating... Cool. It's like the entire culture is fixing itself.

Rocky introducing Trump... Iconic. Yo R O C K Y!!!!! (Will be watching the series again this Christmas). It's a tradition.

When they said threat to democracy what they actually meant was a "threat to Democrat power."

Don't blame a clown for acting like a clown, instead ask yourself why you keep going to the circus.

Stock market soaring

Women's rights were never in jeopardy... the rhetoric was maddening.

people need to stop imagining fake scenarios and hurting their own feelings... I've never been much of a crier, so I don't get it.

People have promised to flee the United States and go to Canada, Australia or European countries, but they have to follow their rules in order to get in legally. Imagine that. What a concept.
