Today is Pharmacy Technician Day.
The pharmacy manager took the pharmacy staff out to dinner tonight along with our shift leads. I was not invited. That bothers me a little bit. I know I'm a manager, but after weeks if spending all of my time in the pharmacy helping them, it just would've been nice to feel appreciated and included. After all, I'm still a SCPhT.
The Difference Between Helen and Teresa
Situation: Herb wants beer for his birthday.
Outcome A: Helen buys Herb beer for his birthday. Herb finds the beer in the fridge. He grabs a beer, happy about it, and says "hey have a beer with me!" They have a beer together.
(Two separate occasions)
Outcome B: Teresa buys Herb beer for his birthday. Herb finds the beer in the fridge. He grabs a beer, and sits down in front of the TV, never saying anything.
-----------------------------------------------
Situation: Telling Herb Off.
Outcome A: Helen could tell Herb off and she would be praised for standing up for herself. Herb would be proud!
Outcome B: If Teresa ever told Herb off he would just grind those teeth that he didn't have and tell he to get out!
After my mom died, I used to have these dreams that she didn't really die. She just went away. She went away because of me. Sometimes she would call and if I answered the phone, there would be just silence. Somehow I knew it was her. No one would tell me where she was. Maxine and Ruby knew, but they were the only ones who knew. She just had to go. My dad and my sister seemed ok with it. They didn't seem to care.
Today, like everyday, I find myself searching for self worth.
Why was I spared?
Why does GOD show me mercy?
What is my purpose?
How do I find my path?
Why am I always failing?
This could be an endless loop...
The Outside...
All those times that I cried
all this wasted
it's all inside
and I feel all this pain
stuffed down
its back again
and I lie here in bed
all alone
I cant mend
but I feel tomorrow will be ok
but I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
see your true colors
cause inside your ugly
ugly like me
I can see through you
see to the real you
A Little Mexican Therapy...
It's been a while since I've had some Mexican therapy. You might be wondering what exactly that is. For some of us, it's a few margaritas. For me, it's a tortilla for my face! But, you have to say that with a Mexican accent and you have to get your entire party involved, if not the entire Mexican restaurant. And if you're lucky, the waitress too!
Today, I was at one of the local restaurants, with some of the kids. We had already eaten, and we were waiting for a to-go order. They were restless and playing around at the table. So, naturally, it was time to make tortilla faces. But, when there isn't enough tortillas you have to improvise. There I was, with aluminum foil and napkins, and the kids! We were having a blast. I noticed eyes wandering from other tables. (There was a large party in another section of the restaurant. That's why our order was taking so long.)
A lady came up to our table and she asked if she could take a picture. She said, she had a bad day and just needed something to make her laugh. She was enjoying the show and really wanted to post a picture on Facebook. (Her son's brain was bleeding and he had been airlifted to Gainesville, Florida. She was waiting to hear from the family there.) The kids posed for her so she could take a picture. She walked away laughing. It really brightened her day. In turn, it changed mine. :)
With all the superheroes in the world, how is there room for Teri Ratt?
Morning Conversation With GOD
- I am thankful for one more day.
- I am thankful for safety and security.
- I am thankful for what He has provided.
- I ask how I can be of service.
- I ask for knowledge, wisdom, strength, and patience.
- I ask to be a better person than I was yesterday.
- I ask to be an example to someone.
- I ask that the right words fill my mouth.
- I ask to see the best in people.
- I ask that I fill someone's need.
Today, I drove to Clinton to have lunch with a friend. (Of course, there's always that argument that she is not my friend.) The question came up on whether or not I should go to the ocean.
E: Well, are you going because you want to go or because you want to get away from here?
T: I want to go. I want to go shelling.
E: Just don't let the waves carry you off somewhere and we never see you again.
T: What? Like just walk out into the water and be like American Online.-does the voice- Goodbye!
E: -makes the E face-
E: You are coming back, right?
T: Sure. It's just coincidence that I just went to my attorney to do my will.
E: Dude, that's not funny.
