Tag: kindness month

Rumor has it that on Monday a coordinator and his subordinate were fired.

Why?

Someone caught them having sex in the janitors closet.

Yes really.

I know it’s not a good thing. It never is a good thing.

But I’m looking at it from this perspective:

Since menopause I lost my desire for sex. My brain no longer talks to my vagina like it used to. I try, but….

For that 50 year old women to have the drive to be that turned to by her new boyfriend that she can’t wait…

I’m jealous.

Now I realize that this is what played out in my brain. It may not be what truly happened.

I can’t tell you the last time I felt like that

Kudos to all of you menopausal women out there who still have the desire to get it on.

On the last day of kindness month I am being kind to myself.

I went to acupuncture, shopped a little bit and now I am having lunch in this cute little restaurant I love.

I am also thinking about what I learned about myself and being kind this month.

It’s been a interesting month. I’ve learned a lot.

I’ll share this in a future post.

I can’t belive its almost October!

I am praying for the people and businesses of Florida today.

Por, a woman that sits behind me a work, was talking for fourty minutes after break.

A full chair turn away from her desk talking the woman behind her.

After twenty minutes of yelling at her in my head I turned around in my chair and said. “Por. Stop talking and start working please.”

I said it nicely and quietly.

She should know better. She’s been in trouble for talking before. She knows better but still does it anyway.

Sometimes a nice scolding is being kind.

I wouldn’t want to her to lose her job over something could have been avoided.

At the mini mart this morning there was a heavier guy who couldn’t get automatic door opener to work so he just let the cart roll away and walked to his vehicle.

I yelled to him “Your cart is rolling away.” He made no effort to go get it. I got out my truck and grabbed it before it hit a vehicle that was in the fuel island.

I was very kind and didn’t tell him what I thought of his selfish ass and the fact he was too lazy to open the door by himself.

My husband and I went to Best Buy on Sunday to pick up his new computer.

The Geek Squad guy was amazing. He very knowledgeable and helped us a lot.

When the survey came a couple of days later I gave him a glowing review.

It ia nice to have people who value their job and are willing to whatever it takes to make you happy.

On Saturday my husband and I were in the Sam’s Club Food Court.

The guy at the counter was having a hard time. It was really busy and you could tell he was overwhelmed.

The father and daughter that were ahead of me weren’t very nice to him. He was the only person working the counter and the line wasn’t movng fast.

But he was trying.

After he took their order the father and daughter were walking away and she told her dad it was probably going to take forever to get their food.

The guy behind the counter heard her..

I felt bad for him. It’s not his fault he was the only one behind the counter and I’m sure he didn’t want to be the only one behind the counter.

I wanted to see if I could make him smile so I told him I liked his tattoo.

I got a one second half smile and his eyes lit up.

Mission accomplished.

Businesses are short handed and I don’t think it’s going to get any better soon.

Take a minute and make someone smile or half smile today.

This was on my desk when I came into work yesterday.

Isn’t that cool?

It made my day.

My coworker , Por, gave it to me. She said it was because I checked on her during her vacation to California a couple of weeks ago.

It was a bad vacation. She was going to California for her aunt and uncle’s funeral with her husband. They had a early morning flight from Chicago which was cancelled and they couldn’t fly out til the next day. The airline lost their luggage and they had to buy new clothes in California.

Awful.

I texted her every day to see how she was doing. I felt horrible for her. To be grieving and then have to put up with the airline crap. It sucked.

Later on in the night she told me I was the only white person that talked to her in the department after she started and she really appreciated that.

She also likes that when I go to Vegas I sometimes bring her stuff back. Por likes the fan blowing on her. She sometimes uses tape to keep the flyaway strands out of her face. So when I was there last time I bought the little girl hair clips with hearts on them. They were cute and kept her hair in place.

Its awesome that I had some appreciation come back to me. I didn’t realize that my little acts if kindness meant that much to her.

But it did and for that I am grateful

I gave Sue, a woman I work with, a pair of Unicorn scissors I bought for her daughter. 

I saw the scissors at Kohl’s the other day on clearance the other day.  I immediately thought of her daughter because she loves unicorns.

Sue was happy and says her daughter is going to love it!!
