Summer Heatwave in Full Effect~~PLEASE READ!!

Growing up all my life in Maryland, I can not recall one summer where it was NOT hot, we didn't suffer the effects from a crazy thunderstorm, or the humidity was NOT unbearable.

The reason I say mention this is becuase of all the post's I have recently read on FB related to the weather. I'm not sure if anyone checked their calendar this morning but today is July 6th.

JULY 6TH PEOPLE!!!

I mean if it was snowing outside, yes, I could understand all the posts about the weather. But it's the dead of summer!!! I have to experience the wall of humidty everytime I walk out my office door, the last thing I need is to be at my air conditioned cubicle and read from others about how HOT it is!!!

When you start seeing snowflakes outside then yes, update your status, but untill then, please only post poolside bikini photos so I can know how hot it is outside!

Thank you for reading my Blog about the heat....

That is all...

Time Management... and/or.... Quality of Life

Despite what science says about having more hours of sunlight in the day since it is summer, it seems that there are never enough hours in a day and our days are getting shorter and shorter. Reports due, sales quotas needing to be met, checking out the latest on Facebook, picking up the kids from daycare, chores around the house... 24 Hours just doesn’t seem to be enough! And sleep? What about it? It used to be a requirement of getting a solid 8 hours of sleep. I’m lucky if I get 6 hours, TOPS!

Through all the hustle and bustle, the one thing we should all remember, the one thing that is most important is our quality of life. Without that, what do we have? Just meaningless odds and ends, chores and errands, reports and quotas. Our quality of life is what drives us to wake up tomorrow morning. It is what makes us strive to be better and excel at what we do. So when you start to feel overwhelmed, stressed, can’t take it anymore, not enough hours in the day, just stop yourself for a minute and do one simple thing... BREATHE!!.... It will all be ok and you will get through it. You’re already in a stressed overwhelming situation; you might as well make the best out of it!

And if not, bust your ass and get it done so you can move on to the next meaningless task!!!


And to cut some of the fat, here are five things that waste time at work!!!

Our First Blog!!-- DMV Storms Suck!!

I would like to start this initial Blog by saying .....it is HOT AS HELL IN BALTIMORE!!! But I am thankful to still have power as over 2 MILLION PEOPLE in the DMV ( DC, MD, VA ) are still without thanks to the horrendous storms we had Friday night. While I sit in my office with an ice cold Sugar Free Monster on my desk and cold AC set to a Bone Chilling 65 degrees there are many people out there that are sweating their butts off in the always dreadful humid Maryland summer. And to those people I say, keep calling BGE and harrasing them until you get AC and Sugar Free monster on your desk as well!!!!
