It has been to long, my frineds!

Good Morning, World!

It has been to long that I haven't written on this lovely little blog. I have done some traveling but to places I have been before , however I have seen them in new light because I am a mommy now. I still work in retail ( man do I need a break from this field of work) and yes I am still in school. I will say that I am excited because school is almost over. I will graduate next December. It seems so far away but it is so close too!  There is a lot to catch you up on. So lets get started!!

This summer, my fiancee and I went to the west coast of Michigan. We visited Holland, Muskegon, Grand and South Haven, Michigan. We visited four lighthouses in two days. It was pretty awesome! They were beautiful and it was nice to send time with my man, just he and I! All the pictures were taken by me. I hope you enjoy them and I will try and not be a stranger again. We are planning a family trip to South Carolina so look forward to pictures!

Talk to you soon, World!  ~Kelly

2014 is a whole new experience for me!

Hello World,
I haven't written in a really long time. A lot has changed for me, two things that are the same is that I still work in retail and that I am a student! The things that have changed are that I got a divorce and finally meet someone that cares about me and wants to help me reach my goals in life. I in turn want to do the same for him. We had a beautiful baby girl on Jan 16, 2014 and I can't thank him enough for giving me a beautiful, loving and good baby. ( I know I had something to do with it but I didn't do it alone.) I have truly been blessed the past year and a half.

 

 

More to come though out the new year! Talk to you soon World!!

Semester is over

Hello World,

Winter semester 2013 is complete! Yay! I did my last final yesterday, which was a presentation in my writing class. I think I did well in it. I will admit it was not easy taking four classes. I got an A in my TV lab class. While I really enjoyed doing, the people in my group were really awesome, especially Nicole, Ray, Jake and Nick. I would work with them again in a heartbeat. Now I am just waiting on my grades from my Math class, my Media Management class and my Media Writing class. I hope I got all A's in them but I would be happy with B's as well. I will everything in my life is going really well at the moment. I am loving and enjoying life. I am hoping to go on a few adventures up north to see some light houses. So keep an eye out for post and pictures about that. Have a wonderful day, my friends.

April Shower's bring May Flowers!

Hello World,

It's the beginning of April and I am just now getting back to writing to you about myself. The month of March flew by so fast. I only have three weeks left in this semester. I pray that I pass all my classes, which I believe I will but it's always good to pray!   I then start the summer semesters on May 6 and don't get a break till August 21st, when school starts back on Sept 4th. I will be in school till April 2015, which is two years from now. I can do it, it's only 24 months and it's good to have short time goals and long time goals. I love challenges and look forward to what the future holds for me. I know there is something special meant for me out there, as well as for  all of you. You may  not feel that way but there is, even if it's just helping someone carry there grocery's in their home or wipe a baby's nose when it doesn't feel good. You are special and make an important change in some ones life.

Be Well My Dear Friends of the World,

Kelly

Hello World,

It's been a little over a month since I have written. As normal for me, the past month or so has been very busy.  The passing of my uncle and our family coming in, plus the starting of a new semester and work on top of it. I am finally trying to catch my breath.

The last two weeks I have been working midnights doing the Cos Reset for work. We have been working the midnight shift 8pm-4am on top of trying to go to my morning classes. It was very hard but I will say this the other girls on my team were AWESOME! They did an excellent job and made working them crazy hours bare able. We were able to finish three out of the five stores we had to do.

Now, I am trying to catch up on my school work. I got behind on my math homework and I am having a hard time understanding what it all means. It is very overwhelming and makes me really hate that I have to work and go to school at the same time. I wish sometimes that I could just be a full time student, but I know that these days are over. Well I am done venting for the moment. I have to get ready for my math class.

Kelly

P.S. If you pray please keep me in yours. I have an important test tomorrow, it will decide a lot for my future. Thank you!

New Year, New Beginnings and Losses!

Hello World,
It's been like ages since I have written to you. To be honest, I believe September was the last time. Since that time a lot has changed in my life. Some good things and some bad.

I wrote the above on Jan 1, 2013 and didn't get a chance to finish it.  I have so much to say, but have had a lot of things happen since Jan 1, 2013.  There are a lot changes happening in my life. For one, my husband of five years and I  separated, we did that in September. I am still going to school,  the semester that just ended I was taking Math, American Film Genre and Business Law. I got an A, B+ and a B- in those classes. I am really proud of myself. Starting this Monday, I will be taking 4 classes. I will be taking another Math class, Television Lab, A News Radio and TV writing class and lastly a Radio and TV management class. I also am working full time. So I am going to be very busy. But busy is good. When your not busy you think too much.

On Jan 2nd, my cousin in law, Jessie, called me looking to see if I had seen my uncle, her father in law. I hadn't, she told me he was missing and that they were making a missing person report. The next morning, they used the technology of today's age (gps on cell phones) and located my uncle. He was sitting on a bench in a park off the Detroit River. He was gone, we are not 100% sure what happen. We believe it was self inflicted, because that is what all the evidences points too. All I could think of is, " I just don't understand, I just don't understand". This man had so much to live for. He had a beautiful and loving son, who was his best friend. A smart and adorable grandson that he loved and would do anything for. That idolized his "Paps" and his daughter in law.  I just don't understand.
But let me say this to everyone, If you are depressed and thinking about hurting yourself. There are people out there who want to help you. We love you and when you hurt yourself, you don't just hurt yourself but you hurt your loved ones and friends. Really think is it worth it?

Just Becuase!

Hi World,

I am feeling alittle lonely right now.  I need to go to bed soon, but I wanted to write alittle before I drift off to sleepy land.  Today, I had a customer come up to me and ask what was wrong with my eye? She said it was all puffy and red, I was like i closed last night and had to be right back in the morning, so that's probably why. She was ahh okay.. Why do people do that? Is it really any of their business what is the matter with my eye. Then I had another customer that comes in all the time with his five year old and two year old sons, ask me out on a date. He smokes and I always try to get him to quit and to think of his sons. He said to me today, " If I quit smoking will you go out on a date with me?" I was alittle shocked at first, and was like am sorry, that would be alittle hard to do because am married. He was like am soo sorry i didn't know, you don't wear a ring. I was like its an honest mistake. But honestly, even if I was single I won't date a customer that comes into the store all the time. What happens if it didn't work out. That would just be plain weird. Have any of you worked retail and been asked out by a customer? Let me know.
