— Proverbs 27:15-16 —
A quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping on a rainy day;restraining her is like restraining the wind or grasping oil with the hand.
__________________________
Quarrelsome nagging, a steady stream of unwanted advice, is a form of torture. People nag because they think they're not getting through, but nagging hinders communication more than it helps. When tempted to engage in this destructive habit, stop and examine your motives. Are you more concerned about yourself — getting your way, being right — than about the person you are pretending to help? If you are truly concerned about other people, think of a more effective way to get through to them. Surprise them with words of patience and love, and see what happens. I feel like with children (or child like roomies) how else are you suppose to get a point across. i nicely ask....i hint at things...and that clearly does not get the point across. i have "nagged" an it has worked. but i guess ineed to find a better, more efficent way to solve problems. maybe a creative idea will pop in my head...we shall see....

Today's verse is very good
i find myself "nagging" people someties (esp mike or erica). it seems alot of the stuff they do they know they shouldnt do it...and they do not fix the problem until i "nag" them. but then a few weeks later they soon forget again and the cylce begins again....*sigh*...LOL its like having children...but we def hav good times...
last night was a blast! i had to work at the bar last night (the close shift :-/) the only reason i dont like to work the close shift on the weekends is b/c i have to wake up early the next morning (@ like 530 am after getting off at like 2:30 am...) to go to work at the hospital. but last night was alot of fun
in the past 24 hours i have had 2 people (that i did not know) that i was a beautiful person. and that felt amazing. to just have someone notice me...i guess i have been so use to attracting the wrong attention or not getting any attention at all that i just forgot how it feels to have someone look at you and just appreciate you. and last night i met a black cowboy..,.LoL...ya i know! that is what i said. but it was kool. he is in town working (with other cowboys from texas!!! )and he is actually pretty good looking...not sure of the age...but there is some thought he may be a little too old for my liking...but who knows...we shall see if he ever calls. i did the "here is my #...if you want to hang out YOU call me" kinda thing. i am not gonna chase any guy...EVER. i will flirt and gladly show interest, but i just cant put in all the effort. it should be the other way around. and its more fun that way. and if he dosnt call...no biggie....no prob.
and to my suprise another guy asked for my number. he was there with a band (and im not gonna lie the bands we AWFUL!!! LoL). but you could tell he had been working up the nerve for sumtime and clearly had an eye for me. so why not. like i said...if they dont call...then not my problem. just move and and wait for the next one.
to be told you are beautiful...is a great feeling. it helps the most when you arnt feeling the best about yourself or you have just had a bad day. i know that the past few months i have been unahppy with different aspects of my life but i am truthfully happy. i have accomplished so much and i have so much to look forwerd to. i am very blessed and happy to be in the position i am in now. things could be so much worse, but the Lord has blessed me with so much more. i cant wait to see what he has planned for in the future.
i hope that ever girl/woman in the world is told that they are beautiful at least once in their lifetime. it truly is a great feeling. i hope it is done with good intention and not to lure them to do something they are tricked into. falling in love is a wonderful thing...and i cant wait until i find that again....
.....until next time.....
