Trace If U dont like my fluff STAY OFF m...'s blog: "Trace's Thoughts for the day"

I have to say I am glad that the holidays are almost over. I still say christmas should be in march lol, Then we all might be able to afford it just a bit better. Is it me or does it seam that the Christmas Holiday has lost its true meaning? And seriously what is it supose to mean now? I thought it was a time for friends and family to get together eat drink and be merry and kids get to get that one toy that was out of reach all year cause only santa can afford it ( specially Now a Days). Now it seams like its the holiday to go broke go into debt and hope and pray there is at least 20 gifts for each kid under the tree and everything cost 50 bucks or more that they want. Time to max those credit cards people pay high intrest rates and what not. I dont want anyone to think I am bah hum bugging christmas, cause I maxed the credit cards, bought the Turkey and all my friends and Family are coming to dinner and there is gifts under the tree, BUT only for the kids this year lol well cept for one or 2 lol. Ok I vented about how broke I am and asked the question of Whats the meaning of Christmas I feel better do you ? Well Merry Christmas all & Happy New years !!

I have bee reading alot of blogs lately , and even have commented on a few. ok more than a few I love to spread my advice , my opnions, and some times just be a bitch. Thats why we all write these things to see what people have to say right ? But I do find it Amazing that some of these people are adults lol. I mean Ive read blogs about OMG every thing and anything. Ive been shocked at times what people blogg about and leave it public. Trust me I am not saying they shouldnt be allowed cause I have the right not to read them lol, but sometimes you cant stop reading these things due to the schock factor in some. We all have to admit , We LOVE a good Drama ! specially when were actually not part of it. Right ?

The big question is : Time to be a friend or be a boss ? Ok this is how it goes, I had a friend who worked with me at the same company , I was one of his managers, We have always kept work at work and kept a regular friendship outside of work.. never really mixed the two. we did really well with it for about a year or so..... recently he quit his position to move on to better things, I do wish him well, As his friend I hope he is happy likes it and all that good stuff.. Now to put it into boss issue ... I wasnt happy with the way he left but whatever.. now back to friend mood, I have heard recently that my friend and his wife split up , its a weird situation but thier business , Hope all works out there too. Boss mood : she calls about his paycheck, I explain it was mailed and what company policy is, she dont like it but nothing I can do about it.. she begins to argue with me about it .. I explain it eally has nothing to do with her , Its his paycheck and if theres a problem he needs to contact management about it, and so on...... At this point she tries to play the friendship card with me ... I wont go there. and so she begins to question my work ethics and my friendship with him all at one time ..... At this point I get ticked and tell her I am done with this conversation and if he needs something to call us... and I hung up. Friend mood : I understand the problem, but I can not use my friendship with him to break the rules at work, I must follow procedures.. I do appreciate the delimia they maybe having , but I dont want to be involved personally or professionally. So at this time I feel the best way to deal with everything is to keep it all profesional and have no friendship with him until everything on the work front has ended. And never talk to his wife again cause she truely pissed me off to no ends with the last conversation I had with her.. I feel she has no right to question my work ethic when she cant hold a job to begin with and isnt even workin now, and I also feel she had no right to try to involve my personal relationship into a work problem. I maybe trying to hard to keep things apart but i feel that it is important to due so.

Ive been reading the mums lately then scrollin through the comments and I ask my self why take the time to comment on the mum if 1 you just think its stupid 2. Your just gonna be rude to the person who wrote it or 3. just dont really care. I am not saying people shouldnt share thier opnion , thats why its there, but I still see no reason for the comments that dont pertain to the mum. Is it just me or do others feel they same way? the mums are there for fun and they are something to read when your bored or looking to make some extra points. I honestly thought this was an adult site.

Questions Do you ever ask yourself why you have done something that you normally wouldnt do or something you actually know may possibbly come back to bit you in the butt later, but still do it? Why do we do things like that ? Ive tried being nice, I did the right thing, at least i think I did. So why do some people think the way to thank you for it is to try to stab you in the back again and try to start problems again. And then when you confront them on it, they look suprised. Its truly not in my nature to for give and forget, but I have learned in my years to let go. bygoins I say. But when you have to deal with the same crap over and over its gets harded to let go. I was over the past and ready to try a new beginning, but some people dont know when to stop and cut thier losses. they still try to do things to others to make themselves look What ?? better ? more important? what ever? but do they realize that it makes them look bad instead, and also brings down others that they tried to use to push thier opionion? Not only are they hurting themselves but others to and still will not beable to meet thier goal what ever it maybe. Do they not realize that for weeks while they were gone there were no problems, and when they come back in less than 48 hours problems arised... hummm wonder why? right? Just some advice to the people who wanna play those games. Dont, Let it go, move on and do what ever it is in harmony, be a team player and not a team downer and things will begin to look up, life will be easier, and harmony will fill the land.

Ok this is my delima...... I have 2 very good friends, and they used to be married then date then now again broke up. ( I know they are both gonna read this, but I really think I need the feed back on this one.) Any ways I have this big annual party that I have been having for a few years now( this will be the 4th one) and they both have attended every year. And to really put a spin on it this will also be the very Last one ever due to where we have it is being sold. Anyways... I am very good friends with lets call her Jane.. she is my best friend, and I understand she dont want to deal with her EX there, but on the other hand lets call him BOB, he has done the DJing for this party every year and really knows how to get it going and keep it going, he very fun and out going and alot of people who are coming asked if he was doing it again. Also I am still good friends with him to, Also my mother wants him there to dj. She even offered him Money to come and do it. Ive been honest with JAne from the get go that BOB was welcome to the party and I was and did invite him, Its true that I do not like BOB's new girlfriend at all, but I am will to put my feelings aside so he can attend, ( trust me not my strong point). And YES I do understand that Jane and new girlfriend dont get along either and there is seriuos issues there, but it is a big place with alot of people and friends from both sides are gonna be there too. I just dont feel its right for my best friend to try to make me choose between the 2 of them, when they both have been big parts of the party since day 1. Now Janes ticked at me cause my mom offered to pay BOB to dj the party and I didnt tell her.... I didnt tell her cause I didnt know if he was or not. In my mind I figured it would be easier to wait and tell her. If he wasnt gonna do it no reason to set her off. If he was gonna then prepare her for it. Am I wrong to want both people at the party which is MY birthday party and the very last one were gonna have. Or should I have to make a choice just becouse I am closer to one than the other do to cercumstances beyond my control?

HAPPY 4TH TO EVERYONE !!!!! HOPE EVERYONE HAS A FLASHING OF BEATIFUL LIGHTS TONIGHT.....HAS THIER FAVORITE DRINK IN HAND, AND GETS TO RELAX AND HAVE FUN !!! THANK GOD WE HAVE A DAY OFF DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK ( LOL ) HAVE A GREAT HOLIDAY !!!! HUGS TO ALL

Do we honestly feel sympathay for them..........Probally NOT...empathy? Maybe. I guess I am just in one of those BLAH moods today.. Nothing really going on that would get people excited to read the blog, Honestly no real reason to type one out other than why NOT?? It's just weird not having alot of drama going on at home or at work everything is to calm...and that alone scares me to death. How can we function without watching everything we do. Isnt it hard not looking over your shoulder all the time.......... No one yelling ..........Nothing to complain about ...Old habbits hard to break... now it complete boredoom. Not sure how to react..... not really wanting too. Life is Life we live as we want to ...doing what we can to stay alive. We ponder death at somepoint in time. scared ? relieved ? fighting?

Done ranting Have a good day !!!!!
