Happy Monday y’all! I hope you had a wonderful weekend and you are ready for a new fabulous week! I am starting my new job today, so I am a little nervous, okay I am a lot nervous! It is just jitters from not knowing anyone and learning something new and I am sure the jitters will end after a short time. Changes are always nerve-wracking, but it is also needed!
I found a wonderful quote to start your week off on the right foot and I hope you like it!
We all feel like we are running into a wall at times and it is SO important to find a way through it or go around it! Y’all know how awful my last job was and how incredibly 
negative it was, so I made the change to something new that should be much better! We are at work more than we are at home and working in a hostile work environment is SO unhealthy and not worth it. It takes a lot of determination to quit a job when you do not already have an offer and stay on top of the search!
I hope your week starts off great and only gets even better! I just want to say, please do not ever let anyone bring you down, you deserve better than that! More than likely they are so unhappy in their life they just want everyone 
to suffer with them so we just can’t let it happen that way! I am looking forward to reading your thoughts on the quote I shared. I promise to respond as soon as possible, which is going to be when I get out of work. I also promise to share with y’all how my first day at the new job went! Never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love , comfort and many positive vibes!
Always, Alyssa

Holly has her own blog she maintains and I love reading her posts. If you have time, I think you would love her as well! https://returnofconflictgirl.wordpress.com/
Oh yeah, when you have time please check out the amazing books written by Emma!!
There are many times when life feels like a roller-coaster that has fallen off the tracks. It seems like one bad thing happens, just to be followed by another and it ends up turning into a vicious cycle of events. Often times you are just getting through one of lives difficult event when something else comes up. It is hard to catch your breath, but you are also forced to keep going.
others were not. I have no regrets about moving to a new area with my husband and two cats. It was a good choice and I do not miss the area we moved from. The move was a new chapter in our lives and it is not complete yet!
There are many times I think about a place that has less pain and is stress-free. I find the beach to be a magical place where my pain seems to be less and stress is not welcomed and is blocked from the beach! I think the sound and smell of the ocean clears the mind and lightens to burdens to the soul. What do y’all think?
from that job because it really was a terrible place to be. The job was full of negativity and ended up being a very hostile environment. During my time off I was able to reunite more with something I am truly passionate about. I have made the decision to try getting into freelance writing. I know it is going to be a lot more difficult because I will be working full-time, but I will still put forth the effort. Of course it is going to take me longer to get everything setup, but it is a real possibility and I will make it happen!
things fast. I do not see it as be a difficult job, but hopefully it will be a great new adventure. There was a time I was very naïve and thought all people had good intentions, but as I have gotten older I know this isn’t always true.Don’t get me wrong, I know there are many wonderful people out there, but with some it isn’t easy to know if their intentions are good or if they plain evil hiding behind fake sincerity. I plan to go into this new job with my eyes wide open and no real expectations, good or bad. I guess if I do not have any expectations for the new job, I will not be disappointed!
I hope you are enjoying your weekend so far and you are feeling the best you can. I am still planning to keep my same schedule of posts and continue to try doing additional ones, but it might take me a little longer to respond to comments. We are approaching winter and it is already pretty chilly where I live. The craziest thing is, I actually grew up in the north where there are very cold and snowy winters. I guess living in the south for 20 years has made me forget what cold really is! Now when I say it is getting colder where I live, I think low 50’s is cold! 
place, but I guess I just have a lot on my mind and writing about it helps! I do hope you leave a comment because I love reading what your thoughts are on everything. I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend! Please never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love 
Happy Friday y’all! How was your first week of December? I think I am still lost as to what happened to this year! I mean, come on time is on super charge! I swear I have been hearing Christmas songs for weeks now! What happened to waiting until after Thanksgiving to start anything with Christmas? I did spend the most of the week waiting patiently, okay let’s face it I wasn’t that patient for my background check to be clear from a state I haven’t lived in or even been to in 20 years! Thankfully
, the background came back late Thursday afternoon and just like I told the recruiter, I have absolutely nothing on my background check, not even a speeding ticket! Good news is, I am starting the new job on Monday!!! I would have never thought I would be looking forward to going to work.
I do believe we all have dreams of something we want to do, accomplish, go visit somewhere we want to see and anything else you can think of. Sometimes, we have to fight twice as hard against our thoughts that are trying to hold us back. Being held back could be due to our lack of confidence, which we can correct I find the quote I am sharing with y’all today very encouraging and I plan to never give up on the dreams that are close to my heart! 
only thing I have control of. 
Happy Friday Eve y’all! I hope your week went well and you are looking forward to the weekend! One of many things I am not great at is waiting! Y’all already know that I quit my previous job because it was well, awful and I accepted another position. So here is where the waiting comes into play. Of course most jobs do background checks, right? Well, one of the states I lived in about 20 years ago is taking forever to get them what they requested! It makes no sense at all, I was barely an adult when I lived there 
and sure as hell do not have anything negative in my background! In the event that state doesn’t get my new job the report requested, I may have to wait another week before I am able to start. Now another week off work is great, but it is also unpaid and who can afford that, especially around Christmas?
how we make it in this crazy life! 
something that I am wanting to try my hand in! Even if we do not know it, everything in life happens for a reason and it happens when it is meant to!
I still can’t believe it is already that time of year again! You know when stores are crazy busy and crowded with holiday shoppers and traffic is horrendous? Finding a parking space is almost as challenging as finding a needle in a haystack! It seems that many people lose their common sense with driving and getting around town is like a war zone!
underneath the Christmas tree and more about spending time with our loved ones. In an effort to lessen your stresses about shopping in the overly busy stores, I am going to share a few great ideas for gifts that can just be delivered to you at home!
connects with Alexa allowing for you to not only see the person, but you can speak to them and hear them as well. Your home will be monitored in 1080p video with infrared night vision. I think it would be rather interesting to be able to check on the home anytime with live video on demand!
motion activated, has full color, night vision with image pan and zoom. You can see what is going on inside your home anytime and anywhere you are. Who needs a nanny cam if you have this great camera? The camera come in black, white and black graphite. Connects with Alexa, iOS, Android and Google. There is even one touch emergency services that will alert police, fire and EMT.
contains the ability to monitor pressure, temperature, keeps time and adjusts heating intensity and duration. This just blows my mind because it cooks fast and saves you time. After a long day at work, this machine with little effort on your part will have dinner ready in no time!
Machine. Have you ever thought about using your creativity to make gifts for others and even great things for yourself? All you would need is letters, numbers and images to create t-shirts, garment bags, mouse pads, jigsaw puzzles, ceramic tiles, plates and really anything that is flat. A digital LCD time lets you set the desired time and an audible alarm will let you know when the item is complete. I think this machine could be so much fun and using our creativity would show off our talents!
deas that could be affordable and a great gift! This is just my first post with gift ideas and there will be more to follow. Please let me know what you thought about these ideas because I would love to know your opinion! 
Happy Monday y’all, I hope you had a lovely weekend! Can you believe it is already December? I know I have said this before, but I do not know where this year went! With another holiday coming up shortly it can be super stressful. It seems like plans and finding the right gifts to give can be difficult, but I am going to try this year to change this pattern because it just isn’t worth it! Throughout the next few weeks, I am going to do a post a week about fun and easy gifts you can purchase that the recipient will love!
next Monday and it has been great! I love having the time and energy to clean my house, write about things that are important to me, start writing poetry again and I still find it be a great release of emotions, researching how to get into freelance writing and even though I still do not sleep in, I can take naps if I want to! I think y’all already know how much I love to write, so if through my research on freelance writing I can actually get involved, it would really be such a dream come true for me! I do believe if we want our dreams to come true and work hard for them, we can achieve anything we set our mind to!
and really value your comments! I hope you have a wonderful day and your week is full of amazing things! Try your best to keep a good mindset and do not allow anything or anyone to dull your sunshine! I already told you that I will be sharing some good gift ideas in a few posts throughout the next few weeks. I think instead of getting extremely stressed, we should try to remember what holidays are really for and that is being with family! Please never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love
