Stop Talking

Have you ever felt like you where to talking to some one and they weren't listening? I mean, they were hearing what you were saying but they weren't actually listening? Like talking to a wall... Well, that is the time to stop talking. Don't make it personal, but if some isn't going to listen to you, just stop. Stop wasting your breath. Stop getting frustrated. Stop talking period. I had to learn that recently and lemme tell you, it isn't easy. So, speaking to myself here, this weeks verse to live by

Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

Proverbs 9:7

P.S. On a lighter note, I personally consider maxi skirts cute and more then modest. Older generation consider them hippie. My husband's grandma thinks "long isn't making me look any younger". What is your feeling towards maxi skirts?

Awkward
- Walking in on someone in bathroom stall - really awkward
- Realizing (at the store) I forgot all of my coupons that I so carefully cut up and put on the refrigerator
- Walking into the principal's office to talk to him about one of the students and being take for one of the students
- Taking a nice hot shower and having cold water burst into my face. Not cool. Well, actually very cool.
- A literally 4 inch butt crack like a shinning beacon in the middle of computer lab
- Seeing two of my friends from high school. You have to know - in high school I was one of the nerds. During my senior year I didn't skip even once, while these two other girls were almost never in class. Then I went to college and now 5 years later I'm a professional tutor at the community college, while those two are still attending the above mentioned college. So when they saw me, as I proudly strut my "faculty/staff" badge, they quickly said 'hi' and got the heck outta there.

Stupendous
- Finally getting to wear my white jeans
- Making some delicious pastry... Best moment of the day...
- Staying true to my commitment (see here for more details) although there was a sale @ TALBOTS and I found a gorgeous dress for my cousin's wedding.... my prayer tonight "Lord, please let it be on sale May 21st"
- Getting 3 paychecks in mail today - it's pay day, baby!
- Discovering a great new quote about choosing your mate "Chose your love. Love your choice"
- Talking with hubby until wee hours of the morning... Those were the best moments of my day

Love my first pedicure of the season with Fresh Mint 

               I am going to brag a little - I have the best man in my life! His names is Sergey (it's a Russian name) and he is my hubby. He is a manly man and all things a woman wants in a manly man. He is strong and sensitive at the same time. He is generous, never stingy, very hospitable, caring, thoughtful (especially in little things) and absolutely amazing at listening part. He knows when I'm at my low to plant many kisses on my cheeks or when I'm energized and full of vigor, to stay out of my way. I call him 'solntse' which translates into English as sun or sunshine, because he really does have that effect on my life. He encourages me in my ventures and supports unconditionally and all the way. Lately, there have been so much going on in life yet he has been there for me every step of the way. I think, yesterday I reached my all time low, I came home at the end of a long day, after disappointments, feeling like the weight of the entire world was on my shoulders and just cried. I cried about everything that was wrong and everything I had to do and threw myself a huge pity-party, but hubby was right there. He just sat there with me, holding me in his arms as I poured my heart out. And then... I felt so much better. I felt like the world wasn't going to end and the weight has lifted. He gave me kisses and brought some sweat treats (which is the key to a woman's heart after she broke down); then we sat on the couch, enjoying music and cheese, which was absolutely delicious by the way. 

P.S. I love you babe! 

P.P.S. I think God has a sense of humor. After I wrote this post, my hubby did the laundry for me. Long story short, that didn't turn out so well(lol) and two of my merino wool sweaters were kinda  ruined. We all make mistakes because we are human. You are still awesome and I still love you.

WHEN: Today @ work as a substitute teacher

I think it's my new thing - stripes. I should probably write it in my "About" page and put my mark on the history. Well... not quite. Honestly, I was just wandering this morning - how am I (a math teacher) going to come up with something to write about every day, if I have hardly taken any English courses in college AND   I'm a second language speaker, have been in USA only last 8 yrs? Not quite sure. Therefore sometimes I am going to just ramble on and you may skip the rambling part and just comment on pictures.

Yesterday I was lost. I looked at my closet for about 20 minutes and couldn't find anything inspiring to wear. So I came to a conclusion that some days are just going to be blah. A blah outfit, blah food, blah thoughts and blah everything else. And that's okay. It's OK not to be inspirational and wear jeans with a sweatshirt, sit on the couch with hubs and watch some lame movie. It's OK just want to stay in bed all day and not do anything. It's OK to leave dishes for the next day and completely forget to take laundry out of dryer. We need those days just to remind ourselves that life will go on and everything is going to be okzay!
