Believe in Yourself and People Will Be Forced to Believe in You

I been on the job hunt and going about it the wrong way... yes i believe i am good at what i do but sometimes have to look at my resume, pictures of food I've created, and just remember the journey i have traveled in my culinary career. I am far beyond many of my peers just by where I have been. I do not need someone to hold my hand i'm ready and have been.
By the way if You are unfamilar with my work here are a few pictures, I was lucky to have a professional food photographer help out....




What does being unstoppable mean?
Over the past years I keep examining the reasons that make some people resilient and that make others helpless. I was and am always trying to find out if there are some sort of actions that could make someone really unstoppable... and I was and am right about it.
I would Rack my brain at night when everyone else would be long sound asleep...What does being unstoppable mean? Does it mean being extra superior or being omnipotent? No,(of course not...) it only means that I will become a normal human being who will always reach what she wants.



I might feel sad or down just like anybody else but the main difference between them and I is that within few days my energy will be recharged back and I will find myself fighting again for what I believe in.
Being unstoppable means that life problems will never stop you or me from reaching what we want whatever happens.

Have a great day...

Interesting Thoughts... What is my intention?

To be positive... because i know what i want, and that is the first step, INTENTION.

Part of being positive is praying and meditating, Praying (the act of communicating with god or spirit in worship) and meditating (a mental discipline that one attempts to get beyond the reflexive, "thinking" mind into a deeper state of relaxation or awareness.) To calm the mind. So on my side bar I included some music that i like to meditate and pray with... Check it out, the music is lovely.

And then check out this video about intention, it is quite interesting.



I wish you happiness!

Here's some news....

In my quest to promote the positive.. i really was thinking about the news. Yes it's important to be informed and have a clue what is going on so I can be a good citizen of the world. Sometimes it's really hard to look at the tv or in many cases the internet with so much of it being a downer. I think if intellegent life outside of our planet was observing the news or many tv shows how aweful they might think this planet is. Yes I know i have to take the good with the bad so I ask why is there so little good news out there? i know you say it doesn't sell....sad isn't it. But i think If could start a tv show it would show case all the positive things happening... like this for example:



So as I was surfing looking for positive news I found a great web site which i have to add it to myside bar of my blog. Happy News, it real news about all the good things happening in the world You should check it out it's pretty cool if you ask me! Much Happiness until next time :^)

Using humor and play....To improve everything!!!

Have you ever sat around with family or friends and laughed so hard it almost hurt! I try to do this as often as I can.. because it's so much fun. Ohh, you haven't laughed lately? That's not so good, and if you have keep up the good work! Laughter is strong medicine for mind and body!!! All kidding aside there has been tons of research, proving the benefits of Laughter it relaxes the whole body. A good, hearty laugh relieves physical tension and stress, leaving your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes after.

Maybe I should become a laughalagist....
Laughter boosts the immune system. Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, so if we laugh more we will be well...
Laughter triggers the body’s natural feel-good chemicals. Endorphins (feel good chemicals) promote an overall sense of well-being and can even temporarily relieve pain.
Laughter protects the heart. Laughter improves the function of blood vessels and increases blood flow, which can help protect you against a heart attack and other cardiovascular problems.

Yes it does all that for free.. now you see why it's a good idea to hang out with funny people like me. Or in fact you can check this out....We have a local group in the pinellas county area...

So... start laughing.. remember...it's good for you!!!!

A little observation...
As I was doing my errands I was people watching.... people are allowing the world to get them down. What a shame it is to allow outside forces to control U. Life is pretty darn good, and I am unemployed. So i continued through my afternoon with a smile, I think they are contagious. And it looks like a lot of people need to find one....maybe you don't have one right now, try to catch one and use it. It makes me feel better....(hmmmm.).. that kinda sounds like om, how interesting. You know the ancient sanskrit word for God or everything the alpha and omega. Its a good way to meditate... or to focus or relax, we all could benefit from that so next time you or i sigh we should try a little excercise even for one minute. So I included a little youtube therapy... close your eyes... and get comfortable, try sitting with good posture, this helps with better breathing. Make the "OM" sound on your exhale...and I bid you happiness!

Youtube therapy is what I will call it!!!

I been thinking... I remember last year I kept thinking I needed a break. Well, I finally got it and just wasn't paying attention. Proof again that you get what you ask for, and I should be enjoying this opportunity.

So I want to use my blog as a way to bring more positivity into the world, there's so much negativity out there.. I will not contribute to that. So my glass is full...and it is with the finest champagn..... happiness to all!!!
I will explain the therapy ...this is funny to me!!!

Rays Kicked booty tonight!!

Awesome game!!! Woohoo!!!

Now that I have a little more time..not working.. I can scan the net for news (If you want to call it that) Check this one out it's from florida... I have nothin' to say...but huh?

Manliness: The Redneck Yacht Club opened in February near Naples, Fla., consisting of an 800-acre carefully designed mud pit that drivers pay $30 to frolic in with their own customized off-road vehicles. One mechanic told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune in April that he had spent $15,000 fixing up his rig, with 6-foot-high tires and a skull ornament. His review: "This place is kick-butt."

Time To Make The Donuts?

Depending on your age and where you are located, you may or may not remember the famous Dunkin' Donuts commercial in which "Fred The Baker" declares "Time to Make the Doughnuts"

What was true for Fred The Baker is true for all of us...the minute we raise that first eyelid in the morning and set that first foot on the floor, it's time for us to make the donuts.

Here's my personal Manifesto Challenge , and I invite all of you to join in too.....when you get out of bed tomorrow morning, what's it going to take for us to make the donuts?

Who do need to forgive (even if it's myself)?

What do I need to forget (the past is the past)

Where do I need to go in order to get the job done?

Before i go to bed tonight, take all of the excuses that have held me back out to the trash. Put the lid on the can, get a good night's sleep, and get out of bed tomorrow ready to make the donuts.There's no rehearsal for life. This is it.

Time to make the doughnuts everyone....life's short.. i need to make my own doughnuts...

B. Johnny Damon dances like a girl while batting

C. Johnny Damon acts a lot like Matt Damon's character in Team America
(see this clip)

D. One should not make fun of Johnny Damon because he will hit a home run on you

E. Cookies taste good

Unemployed, or What You Do With All This Free Time ?????


Maybe (we're) going about this "laid off" thing the wrong way. Sure, finding work is tough right now, but look at the bright side: this is (YOU Or Me) time. Finally, you (me) can everything you've (I've) always meant to do, including open that frozen custard shop! (I love that stuff!!!)

Go On A Spritiual Journey
or
Write A Philosophical (I had to spell check that) Manifesto (Wow impressive thoughts)
or
DO SOME SIT UPS
I mean, if you’re going to be broke, bored and jobless….you may as well be sexy.
or
Read Some Russian Novels
Because you have plenty of time, and why not match the downcast times with Russian literature?
or
Learn a Language
You get bonus points if it’s a semi-obscure that you’re never actually going to be able to use.
or
Hibernate
Haven’t you always wanted to try?? Now’s the perfect time! It doesn’t matter if it’s winter; you can hibernate through any season. See how long you can last.

I Know what you all are contemplating... she's totally looney tooney...but your really thinking..
It's a recession people. I gotta pay rent... How can you make some quick cash before the end of the month? Well you'll have to tune in next time and I can give you some fantastic ideas!!!

Look what I found while researching Jobs!!!

that's a good time!!!

We all know the downsides to unemployment, so I'll talk about the good.
No longer being stuck to the usual monotonous routine day in and day out, I was able to stop for a moment and enjoy life. Ahhhh...All the time in the world with none of the $$$ to go with it. If you're crafty though, you'll notice that the Bay Area has a ton of free things going on to occupy your time.

......can be a gift. I don't mean joblessness that results in lack of direction, causing idleness and poverty. I mean the abandonment of a "real job" in favor of pursuing one's true calling. Maybe this is the time, or at least have the opportunity to think about it. I often say that people are too busy earning a living to get rich. Rich doesn't always mean money..if you know what I mean. Hmmm..that's an interesting thought...

I'm pretty thankful for the break. It sucks not getting money but it could be a lot worse. I'm pretty happy that I can sleep in (well I've beening doing this my whole life really) and have random adventures. Hurray for the advancement of random adventures!

I want to raise my glass for a toast....The glass is always half Full!!!

Back by Popular Demand!!!!

It's peanut butter jelly time!!!! That's for you Mom... hehaaheee

Well today was 2000 times better then yesterday... And that's no exageration by any means. The K-C's started the day with going to church with the family. This weekend My Sister Karen, Bro-in-law Joe and our the Two cutiest Nieces in the world made the trek from Jax, to visit with my Aunt Pat, and everyone else. My Aunt Pat is down visiting from the frozen tundra of Indiana. We spent the day having lunch and snacks, chit chatting, and of course have quality time with all. The two cutiest nieces (Abby and Chloe) are growing like little flowers, and they are doing fantastic. It was a great day and flew by too fast.

A Tale of Two Days

Today has been a tale of days. First Greg had his best round of golf ever. On a par 71 course he shot a 98 98!!! He then went up and spent the evening with his brother and family. The other day was Laura's. Laura's day was supposed to be simple, go to work get off and join Greg or see sister, bro in law, and nieces. Apparantly God had other plans because they went through hell with multiple groups of conflicting mothers each thinking that they were right and driving them all crazy. So you see it is a tale of two days one happier than the other. Well Goodnight!

Is this really a word??

Nougatocity – nu-gat-a-si-te
A heightened yet fleeting state of accomplishment that makes you realize how unbelievably unmotivated you normally are.

Huh? Is that what your saying.. so you want the heck am I talking about? Well, it’s 1:15 in the morning and I’m over tired and really should be in bed since I only have one day off this week. I’m hungry, there’s nothing good to eat.. that’s normal in my house, most of you know this already. So I happen to remember Greg brought home a snickers from work that he got on Friday. That’s right you guessed it right I ate it… Yummy..it was so good. And that was the word on the inside of the candy wrapper…Hmmm. So I googled it and yes it is another made up word, but I did stumble upon urbandictionary.com. What a great site. You should check it out if you like to make up nonsense like I do….

Here’s some vacab for everyone:
hungerectomy
1. The complete and total removal of your hunger
Drafternoon
Anytime after 12 pm to start pouring cold ones
abedgasm
A feeling of complete and utter euphoria which peaks when climbing into bed at the end of an 18-hour workday.

Well that's all I got folks see you next time....

Lesson Learned...

Monday I was off from work, I was thoroughly exhausted from the previous night work. It was busy...in the ruff and tumble way. Well, back to Monday.. I woke up at the crack of noon and was hungry. Well if you know anything about my fridge it's not know for being well stocked. So I decided to eat cereal, sounds great right? Not exactly.. My sister Sarah showed me this new honey, whatever Kashi brand cereal the friday before. I bought some and decided to try it out.. it was delicious!!! I had 3 bowls throughout the day, plusa bunch of celery sticks in the afternoon, and Kashi flatbread for dinner.....do yah see where i'm going? That's right today the fiber train had a party in my gut... I won't be doing that any time soon. Note to self...the nearest super market is 5 min away by car...
