Do you like video games?

Do you like video games?  Are you what they call a gamer?

I play as much as I can.  I guess I would be considered a casual gamer. I have always been a fan of video games.  They can be good stress relievers also.  Trust me I know.  I like to keep my systems up to date and also stay up on all the new games coming out.

Some may ask what is a gamer.  Well www.wikipedia.org says a gamer is: Historically, the term “gamer” usually referred to someone who played role-playing games and wargames.[citation needed] More recently, the term has grown to include players of video games. While the term nominally includes those who do not necessarily consider themselves to be gamers (i.e., casual gamers),[1] it is commonly used to identify those who spend much of their leisure time playing or learning about games.

I have been bad this year and not gotten as many games as I would like.  It’s been hard because I like racing games and sports but I also like action games but not first person games which a lot of action games are. It’s hard to pick when you have such wide range of games you like to play.

I like my Nintendo Wii www.nintendo.com/wii because it gets you involved in the game.  Wii was the first gaming system that gave that option and it’s been great.  I got most of my sports game for wii just because you can be more active.  I am however not a fan of racing games for wii but that’s because I can’t race well.

Now of course you must have a PS3 or some type of Playstation system www.us.playstation.com .  Playstations are classic in my opinion.  My first gaming system was a playstation and I have been hooked ever since.  I always get my racing games for playstation the graphics are great and the controller is easier to use.

And of course we can’t for the XBOX www.xbox.com . I bought the xbox when it first came out a few years ago and I loved it.  The graphics are awesome and some of the xbox only games are sweet.  I bought the xbox 360 just so I could get Def Jam Icon and we beat the game the same day.

So as you can tell I like my games.  They can keep you active and relieve a stressful day.  With Playstation and Xbox both having motion controlled systems attachments know it’s no reason to not be active when gaming.

I use my wii fit active as my daily workout and I use my xbox & playstation as my relaxation method.  You can learn a lot from some of the games made for these systems.

So get out and get gaming,

So you work from home uh …

So you work from home uh.  You get to make the big bucks and work whenever you want.  What about people who get up each day and go into the office.  They don’t make much do they?  You get to do what you want when you want. 

How do some get so lucky?  Would it be because they are put on this pedestal of being perfect?  I feel bad for those that do the hard work by coming in.  The come in and work their butt of to make enough money to put gas in their car while some get to sit on a comfy couch and watch tv and do an hour or so worth of work and make enough to buy a new car.

That is just not fair or am I wrong?  I see people struggling to everyday struggling to get their medicine to save their life.  That’s pretty sad.  Why cant everyone be treated equal?  Why doesn’t everyone work in an office unless they have their own business that is run totally from home?

Is it fair to make more money working from home then the ones that come into work?

Is it fair to make people feel less important because they aren’t as talented as the home workers?

What about holidays.  Is it fair to get paid days for holidays if you work at home?  I mean you already off and not working how can you get paid.

Should work for home people get treated better than the come in staff?

How do you feel about this?

We are wondering what you think about these situations.  Unfortunately this stuff happens all the time in some places.  I think it’s good to talk about it and make others aware of some of these things.  I was also asked to ask how some people find perfect work at home jobs for these big companies out here.

So where do you think someone can find these jobs?

In short you should try to enjoy the job you have regardless because at least it is a job and many people can’t say that right now.

Think on those questions and again enjoy what you already have.

Peace

Moody people …

It’s like the more you try the more people seem to treat you like crap.  I just don’t understand it.  Maybe you can inform me on how to be perfect since so many out here think they are.  Don’t ever make a mistake because if you do the world may just end.

Some people act like that were born into this world with all the knowledge or etc they need and no one else has any.  It so pisses me off.  You are no better than I am so why you acting like you are.

Some people get up on this little high horse like they are golden and no one can be better than them.  I got news for you buddy because you need to come off your high horse because you can’t ride it to Heaven.

I wonder how people gonna act when they meet God.  I am sure some will try to tell Him He is wrong because they know everything.  It is gonna be a lot of humiliated people out here. 

They good thing about me is that I can vent about it and move on.  I always forgive but I will never forget.  I also don’t ever wish something on someone no matter how I am treated. 

I am sure that at some time in their life they two well get bad treatment and realize wow that’s how I treat people or at least we can only hope that they will learn how to be more respectful.

It’s a new day … never stop

Just wondering …

Sometimes we wonder why certain things happen.  Why some people have it made and others don’t.  Some get so sick and others are just so healthy.  It’s just amazing how some things work out.  We don’t realize what we have until it’s gone.

We go on about our day being all happy and having fun while someone somewhere is sick or suffering.  We sometimes never seem to worry about anything even if it’s right in our face.  That can be good sometimes I guess.

We complain about not having this or not having that but we seem to look pass those that have NOTHING at all not even a family.  We worry so much about material things and money that we forget the most important things and that’s God, family and friends.

We get caught up in the technology and other stuff that’s around us nowadays.  We even forget about our heath.  Our health should be the most important thing to keep let’s say upgraded.  Without our health we wouldn’t be anything.

So start to think more about what’s really important in life and put more focus on those things.

Do you know?

Friends, what is a friend?  I guess for some that’s hard to tell.  Well in my opinion a friend is there no matter what.  They check on you when you are sick and hurt, they help you when times are hard.  A true friend is not always there when you call but they are always on time. I got some great friends and I am very happy about that.  They are always around just in time and would do anything for their friends.

Also, I gotta touch on bosses nowadays.  What do you think makes a good boos?

Give me your feedback.  My ex-boss is in my opinion the best boss on the planet.  She is always around when you need her, she never look down on you.  She’s a true friend to the end.  She’s one that is still your friend long after you don’t work together, she calls or text everyday to see how you are doing.  I am truly grateful to have this person in my life.  She has truly made me a stronger person because I know when I need something and my family can’t help me I can always turn to her and I know I will never be let down.

My family is my rock and my true friends are to.  I couldn’t have made it this far without my family and true friends.  For them I am grateful.  The love I have for my family is irreplaceable and so it what I have for the very very few I call true friends.

I hope you can find someone special to you like I have found.

Keep on looking and it will happen.

Best regards

Children & the lack of respect

Ok so I want to touch on a topic that can be a little hard for some people.  That’s totally ok because it all depends on how you were raised and how you discipline your children.  I want to talk about children and the lack of respect they show their parents and elders.

It seems that the lack of respect children have for their parents is on the rise.  I don’t think some kids realize just how important their parents are.  The lack of respect for elders in general is on the rise also. I just sit back sometime and wonder what is wrong.

I heard a 14 year straight out disrespect her mother to the fact that she called her a b***h and the mother just looked at her.  What happen to the discipline?  How could you stand there and allow your child to talk to you like that without comforting her?

I am not that old but I can tell you right now that if I talked to my mother like that I would most likely either not be here today or would be in some type of disability from getting the crap slapped out of me.  I have so much respect for my mother that I would give her any and everything she needs.

I have never had a spanking because I knew better than to disrespect my family.  My grandparents made it real clear to us how to act and how to show respect and I am so grateful for them.  I believe that being raised mostly by my grandparents because my mom worked all day made me a little stronger.

I grew up with my half-brother for the most part.  We stayed at my grandparent’s house everyday while our parents were working.  We helped them if they needed something and if we weren’t helping them then we were outside playing.

We stayed outside and played all day unless it was bad weather.  We would come in for lunch then a nap then we were right back outside playing.  Kids nowadays won’t go outside in play if you paid them to.  They are so caught up in video games.

Don’t get me wrong we played video games also.  I sometimes wonder is the lack of fresh air causing some of the issues we have with children.  Maybe if they would get outside more and learn some hard work from their grandparents’ they would be a little more respectful.  What do you think?

These kids out here today have it made.  They get whatever they want.  You would think they would be more respectful.  You can’t discipline your child anymore because they want to call the cops.  Maybe when they threaten to call the cops the parents should just take them to the police station it would help save on your phone bill.

I say it’s time to go back to some old school teaching of discipline and respect.  It’s time these kids learn how to respect people not only their parents but everyone.  A lot of times when people are disrespectful to others they don’t even respect themselves.   It’s time for a change.

Young people you need to cherish your family.  You may get married and have a family n law as I call it but no one can ever replace your blood family.  You need to cherish your mother and father because you only get one and cherish your grandparents they are the backbone of your family.

Let’s try to make a change everyone and let’s start by learning to respect your own self.   I am not saying this is going to be easy but we have to start somewhere.  Parents you need to stand up and start showing your children who is the parent and start teaching them some discipline.  A little hard love won’t hurt anyone I promise.

And children you need to step it up and start respecting your parents they are your firm support when times are hard and when times are good.  Cherish them and love them daily show them that they mean more than anything to you

So they are calling for snow

So they are calling for another snow storm tomorrow.  Not really sure what time it will move in or how much we will get.  I have heard anywhere for 1 to 4 inches but no one really knows.

What I think is funny is when they call for snow everyone heads straight to the grocery store to get milk and eggs and of course bread.  I am not sure I understand why.

So my questions are

  1. Why do people go buy all the milk and eggs they can when they call for snow?
  2. How are you going to cook if the power goes out?
  3. How are you going to keep this food from going bad if the power goes out?
  4. What if we don’t get what they are calling for and you have all this milk and eggs?

Give me your answer to these.  I would love to know what others think about this.

Ready for Golf 2011

I can’t wait for spring to get here.  I am so ready for Golf.  I try play as much as I can during the spring and summer.  In the winter I always play Tiger Woods PGA games.  Those games are great.  I can say Tiger Woods influence was major on me and my friends to start playing more golf.

I have always liked golf but when he came into the game everything changed.  We watch him play all the time if we can get the channel the tournament is on.  The year he was out with knee surgery was the longest year ever. 

We didn’t watch any golf that year.  I mean who wants to watch something when it’s no competition on the field.  I was so happy to see him back.  We were finally able to watch golf again.  I know 2010 was a rough year for him so I am hoping that 2011 will be the year of return.

I have always been a huge fan and will always be.  No matter win or lose if he is playing we will be watching.  Golf has no meaning if Tiger isn’t on the field.  I know some may say you are crazy but hey that’s what true fans do they support their player.

It’s sad so many let someone personal life affects how they feel about someone.  Who really cares what someone does in their personal life.  That’s why it’s personal.  Search the meaning of personal if you need to.  I am not saying what he did was right but I am saying that’s his business and no one else’s.

I was super happy to see him return in 2010 and I will be even happier when he plays in 2011.  A true fan shouldn’t let personal affairs interfere with how they support someone.  We have to all realize that we aren’t perfect and everyone makes a mistake and deserve a second chance and respect.

So many want to bash him for what happen but if you would take a second to look in the mirror would you see a clean slate?  I would have to say most likely not.  So it’s not our job to judge him or anyone else for what they do in their private life.

So when you get the feeling wanting to bash someone about what they done or what they didn’t do just stop and think then go look in the mirror and if you do you will realize that you to aren’t perfect.  People see celebrities as if they were immune to problems and having a life.

News flash they aren’t they are people with feelings just like the everyday person.  They have to go about their day and do work just like we do.  Remember the only difference is that a celebrity has a larger bank account and they work in the public eye.

Celebrities just like me or you deserve respect.  They shouldn’t have to feel bad when something in their life goes wrong.  We are all on this earth for a reason some are here to shine others aren’t and that’s not anything anyone can do about it.

So let’s go Tiger Woods 2011.

What would you do?

What would you do if you were in my shoes and had to deal with this type of issue?

I sit here sometimes and just wonder how can someone so simple-minded and have no common sense have a job like the one he has.  I just don’t get it.  I mean come on the dude can’t type an email without asking a hundred times how to do it.  Dude you been working for 30 + years what tha heck you mean.

It’s like his knowledge is stuck on the ground floor.  It is sad how many times a day you have to repeat yourself.  Sometimes I feel like recording what I say so I can just hit the play button.  Make you just want to be rude and that’s not my style.

Like how many times in a day do I have to answer the same question over and over again?  Shouldn’t you know the answer after I have given it to you 50 times today why you still asking that question.  I just don’t get it.

Can someone tell me how can you be in your 60’s and been working for 30 + years and you still can’t figure out how to transfer a phone call?   Does that make sense to you?  Someone help me out on this one.

I bet a broken record won’t repeat itself and much as I have to do daily.  And don’t miss a day because it just goes straight down hill.  The poor person that covers me has to deal with it and that’s just horrible.  It’s bad enough for one to deal with it.

Sometimes I wonder was he dropped on his head as a baby because they lack of sense doesn’t make sense.  I guess anything is possible.  Maybe he does it to see how far he can push me?  Hmm he does a good job it that’s the case.

I wonder is it a test we can give him.  Then again he wouldn’t get it and I will be stuck explaining it a 100 times.  What is really bad it is starts first thing and last all day.  Do you know how long the day can be when you are dealing with something like this?

I try to be helpful and kind and I try really hard to not so that this is driving me insane.  Thank goodness for blogs LOL. 

I would like to know what you would do if you were in my shoes?  Be nice if you decide to comment please.

Best regards,
