This year I was scheduled to work for New Year's Eve, and while I wasnt HAPPY about it, I  was just resigned to the fact that I would ring in another year with my coworkers.  Then a girl on the opposite color squad came out looking for a trade for the days just before it,... Continue Reading →

I feel like every time I make plans to meet up with someone for lunch or dinner, I am normally the one picking the place to eat.  Thanks to my super fun Yelp community, and my fab friends the Nom Noms, I have quite a large list of places that I want to go, and... Continue Reading →

While I still had some days off from work, and I was pretty bummed about my fam squad leaving, I decided on a whim to just get outta town. I showered, packed myself and my tiny sidekick, and off I went. Destination-Savannah! I have quite a love affair with Savannah, and I have been there... Continue Reading →

That could be a perfectly valid reason for me not stopping by, but really I have to apologize.  I know it has been a long while since there have been any entries here in the Diary. I have been a little on the busy side. When I say that I have been busy, I just... Continue Reading →

Yall..when I say it was a long day and night, that is not an exaggeration.  It felt like we were there talking to these dang citizens for a couple days all smushed together.  We took call after call about downed wires, trees blocking road ways, power outages, bridge closures and more.  Those were just the...

Well there I was, when it happened…When you live in Jacksonville Florida, you get used to the idea of rain and winds.  I would love to tell you that this is all dancing in the rain in cute outfits and swinging umbrellas around looking fabulous while listening to Rhianna music, but I would be lying. ...
