I am fully aware of any judgment I face for even planning how I can go about getting a second bachelor's degree online related to a strong interest that I have, including my intent to improve upon my writing and strengthen my existing  creativity for reasons that I would prefer to avoid elaborating on for good reasons. Yet, I find this story of student loan article inspirational.

So You Want To Be A Writer Essential Tips For Aspiring Novelists

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/may/13/so-you-want-to-be-a-writer-colum-mccanns-tips-for-young-novelists


An online source that I looked at showed Kimberly Guilfoyle  listed to have been born and raised in California in addition to being very accomplished both educationally and professionally. Regardless of  what becomes of Sean Spicer in his White House Life, Spicer is affiliated with the U.S. Navy Reserve as a Public Affairs Officer with the rank of a commander. This obviously means that Spicer will still have more professional opportunities ahead of him in the future especially because becoming a public affairs officer in the navy is a very competitive process. I do not know what Guilfoyle has been through in both her personal and professional life since she was technically put in mainstream media spotlight after it was mentioned online (less than three months ago) that Roger Ailes implied Guilfoyle to be promiscous after mentioning supposedly how she is in private (erotically speaking) after another woman after Gretchen  Carlson came forward about being sexually harrassed. What this has to do with this story is that I wonder if Guilfoyle felt the need to prove to her critics that she is more than just a pretty face and hot body (professionally speaking) when it comes to proving that her career qualifications netted her consideration for White House Press Secretary. Even if Kimberley Guilfoyle is highly qualified for the job, I have mixed feelings about her publicly mentioning her being considered for the job before the fate of Sean Spicer is confirmed. As a woman who voted for Hillary Clinton, I am far from a Sean Spicer fan nor a hater, yet even I can see that Spicer was given an extremely challenging job (even as a  high profile U.S. Navy Public Affairs officer) of having to continually defend President Donald Trump. Guilfoyle publicly mentioning about consideration for the job (before the outcome of current White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer) may be a justified way for her to get back at her critics who may imply that it is only her beauty and rumored powers of seduction that have carried her in her professional career. However, there are other ways for her to show that she is more than just how she looks when it comes to her career without it being at the expense of the spotlight further shining on what is to become of current White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer (such as  mentioning that she wishes the best for Spicer in his career-whether publicly or privately-while also thinking of her plan B for her career future to show that she is more than how she looks on the outside while finding out the status of her selection for White House Press Secretary, volunteering etc.).

I'm far from a Donald Trump fan, yet I do believe that Kellyane Conway is telling the truth, especially since the idea of being a White House employee is known to carry some prestige. I also saw a picture last year where Conway was at a party affiliated with a billionaire who introduced Trump to Steve Bannon. She actually seemed happy to be working for Trump and maybe even in professional awe of him (as crazy as it sounds). Once again, I am definitely not taking up for Trump yet it is easy to see that Trump has professionally/career wise rewarded Conway for holding job loyalty to him since the 2016 Presidential election last year (not every employer in the public or private sector rewards loyalty especially if you are a woman over the age of 35 andor married).

I respectfully disagree with what Kara McCullough said about healthcare because it overlooks that getting healthcare through working for the U.S. government andor military is a completely different process (financially speaking)than if you are working in the private sector andor as a temporary employee. However, this is the United States of America and McCullough has a right to voice her beliefs in a harm-free manner even if it is different from what was expected of what she would say. I also do consider myself a feminist and yet I was also not offended when she was originally quoted to not consider herself a feminist.

A woman who left her $500,000-a-year job to work for herself says a side hustle can't be successful without 3 factors

http://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-start-a-side-hustle-2017-5

My intuition is guiding me to keep this link in mind because I do believe that Susie Moore is coming from her intuitive heart when giving her advice on the three factors. This article also truthfully makes me wonder if I am in fact meant to work in something related to taco making. This is due to the fact that I had a dream less than 18 months ago, before my current job, where I was actually working in my own business making tacos/burritos similar to what is sold at Taco Bell even though I was sure in my waking life that I was meant to pursue copywriting andor something related to writing.

I am getting better at taking courageous action, but I am still in the process of learning to courageously speak up andor courageously share my thoughts/viewpoints online and offline. This is especially because there are conflicting sources of information out there that talk about being your authentic self and speaking your mind. Then there are sources that point to reputation management and how what you say can indirectly affect your professional life even if you express yourself in a harm-free manner. However, I am keeping this article to help frequently ask myself what would my courageous/brave self do.

I'm very aware that I am going into the snake pit of people who love to name call each other based on beliefs and political affiliation. I respectfully disagree with some of the things that the late Roger Ailes was said to have done when it came to some of the women who were his subordinates. However, prayers and thoughts to his family and friends. It is obvious from the wife's statement that she is very much hurting on her husband's sudden death and for that alone at least some semblance of compassion must be extended.

This article to me is very motivating on what can be possible and I understand that I may be in the minority for how I feel and far from the target audience for this article (as I am a temporary class employee on unpaid vacation from now until August 13 at my current job who is in the process of working out manifesting paid employment). I say that this article pertaining to the student loan success story of David and Meg Cahill is inspirational because usually many student loan success stories are commonly attributed to usually either the student got help paying off their loan through money sources outside their employment andor living rent-free at a family member's place. I do not dare judge anyone who has paid off student loans either accepting help from others andor living rent-free in someone else's place. This is especially because I admit that my husband and I recently got money help from his mother (my mother in law) especially when we were coming to terms with me needing to find a way to get employment from May 18 2017 to August 12, 2017.  However, it is still uncommon for single people andor couples to be able to pay off their student loans simply from the after tax money of their jobs and this is why I find the story of David and Meg Cahill extraordinary and I am actually glad that their story was featured in the mainstream media on what is possible.

I find Dwayne the Rock Johnson and Tom Hanks to be talented actors and I understand that their mock presidential announcement was done just for comedy. However, after the 2016 election, I would not dare laugh at a man or woman who would throw their hat into the presidential ring because I do believe that becoming President is actually open to more people than I originally thought after last year's election results.

I admit that I have been guilty of sometimes missing out on opportunities in the past due to being too concerned about my comfort. This stemmed from the unforeseen of what happened when I voluntarily left a financially comfortable career in the navy. However, life has sometimes nudged me to brace discomfort which has at times helped me bounce back quicker and to the surprise of even some of my critics. As a result, I am going to keep this article as a reminder to myself to embrace discomfort when it comes to important career decisions I need to make.

Due to my professional/career background and being an Amazon fan, I must try to be impartial when commenting on a story such as this. However, an Amazon store carrying only around six to ten employees is a big deal if this article is true.

As an Amazon writing enthusiast, I admit that sometimes seeing how a book is ranked has been very helpful when I budget which kindlebooks to get, which products to consider for my audible membership, andor free kindlebook membership  gifted to my husband and I from my mother in law. Other times, I simply go by my intuition when it comes to whether or not to get the book. However, having list rankings of books on Amazon has exposed me to a world of knowledge and information that would take me longer to get offline andor online through my own discoveries.

VIRGINIA'S SUMMER FESTIVALS

https://www.virginia.org/summerfestivals/

I am normally not one to get involved in other people's soap operas for karmic reasons. However, I had to comment on this story because I am strongly interested in certain politic manners and but in all fairness,I do not believe in forcing a husband to get involved in activism if they do not want to. If this woman in the story were a friend I would tell her to get involved in a club in the area or a volunteer opportunity that would allow her to vent her political leanings. Fortunately, my husband of 13 years and I have a close marriage that has only grown stronger each year we have been together and so I would tell the woman in this story to try to plan activities that involve her and her husband without the pressure of politics. Luckily, my husband is the type of person to show his support if I ever got involved in some type of activism. I see that Andrea Bonner was only trying to help but I am surprised that what may be overlooked is the fact that the lady's husband may simply not want to involve himself in activism due to the danger it can put them both in due to the neighborhood they may live in andor maybe the husband might have a justified reason to not get involved for concern as to how he might be perceived by his coworkers andor managers at his job. After all, for some people their political views andor activism may have cost them a job opportunity in the past. Additionally, the husband might have family members who are supporters of Donald Trump and he may be concerned about how much he might offend them depending on what the lady of the story expects(which I can relate to being concerned about my political views offending some of my family members as I have some family members who are supporters of Trump).

I’m fired up for political protests but my husband is too lazy to join in.

I admit, like many other people, I would not have even known how a London waitress by the name of Viviana Ross became acquainted with Orlando Bloom if not for this story. I want to avoid jumping on the bandwagon for judging her for what she did because it sounds like she got starstruck when Orlando Bloom invited her to spend some time alone with him. However, based on her association with Orlando Bloom, Viviana Ross is probably going to bounce back quickly with another job probably before she would even have to apply andor ask for unemployment benefit money. As for the manager who fired her for her erotic affair with Orlando Bloom that is the manager's right to do as they wish when it comes to those situations. However, like other people, I am surprised that the manager somehow ended up in the same room that Viviana Ross and Orlando Bloom shared.

I'm actually grateful to have come across this article in my yahoo newsfeed because less than 20 hours ago, I ordered an  Amazon kindlebook titled Gems from Buffett by Mark Gavagan and Warren Buffett for free as a way to help me understand the concept of shareholders as it relates to investing. I'm aware of popular critics who may question if I am even ready to dive more into investing. However, I intend to follow my logic and intuition and learn all I can about investing and giving myself a deadline to dive into it. Coming across this article was the encouragement and proof I needed to go forward.

I preface expressing myself online by making it clear that I would not dare judge anyone that is on welfare, foodstamps, andor medicaid. This is especially because my husband and I are fortunate to not  have to use them. However, I am a temporary/seasonal employee at my current job who is saved for now from having to apply for foodstamps even as I job search thanks to help from my husband and mother in law. With that said, I only have harm-free intent when it comes to some of my family members and friends who support Donald Trump. However, I must keep this link for my own education  on how the cuts may impact things to come.

I am currently a seasonal/temporary employee who is in the process of creating more income certainty in my life towards having some type of legal and after tax income to last through most of a whole year. Still, I actually find this motivational article very helpful because it gives a good idea on how much after tax income is needed as a goal benchmark. I understand everyone is different, but I also found it helpful how each person shared the career/job occupation that they are in as I know from personal experience that info like that matters.

As someone who enjoys the Last Ship television show, this is welcome news that the show is going to
be returning on August 20, 2017 for a fourth season. There are a multiple number of talented actors and actresses that are a part of this show. However, I admit that Eric Dane's epic portrayal as Captain Tom Chandler is one of the multiple reasons why I enjoy watching the Last Ship. I use to be in the navy and Dane's effortless demeanor as Captain Chandler does remind me a little bit of some of the officers I use to work around in the military.

I actually look forward to watching Tom Cruise in Top Gun 2. I enjoyed the first Top Gun movie and I strongly believe that Tom Cruise is going to give his best for the second movie.

I already shared an article website link from Australia yesterday related to Top Gun 2. However, even if my sentiment is in the minority, I strongly believe that Tom Cruise is going to give his best in Top Gun 2 and that there is a highly probable chance that Top Gun 2 could be just as good as the first Top Gun. I know that the movies are not exactly related but Guardians of Galaxy 2 turned out to be a great movie. Yes, there is a time gap factor when it comes to Top Gun 2, yet I believe that even that time gap factor can be used advantageously for creating the plot for Top Gun 2.

Miami/South Florida’s Top 100 Events 2017

I want to avoid passing judgement or commenting on this story related to the USS Eisenhower a great aircraft carrier that I use to be stationed on. However, when you mix extremely long working hours with days where a sailor has to stay on the ship because they have to section duty and mix it with being around enough people of the opposite gender who they do spend time with, then this is what you are going to get. To complicate matters, I have personally seen some of the strongest men turn very lustful when they are expected to work more hours on the ship than be allowed off time. Yes, there are people who get away with forbidden affairs but they are usually not as high profile as the CMC in the story was. I wonder if one of the CMC's professional rivals targeted him, which led to this story. I say this from experience because I personally had a chance to report two people who were carrying on interactions that were better left occurring discreetly. At the advice of someone else, I let it go for karmic reasons but I could have easily thrown them in a challenging spotlight even if I wanted to but changed my mind for karmic reasons. This is why I wonder if the CMC may have unintentionally made a professional rival andor subordinate extremely angry that may not have cared andor been aware of karma.

That is tough what happened to the maid (in relation to the Mayflower hotel in Washington D.C.)and what is tricky about this situation is that he could easily say that he (John Joseph Boswell) did something else and could be believed. I do not excuse his behavior but I think the maid might have reminded him of someone else he was allowed to have free reign over touching wise in the past and he might have stereotyped and thought that the maid he "touched" in his own way would like it too and keep it secret. I also know this from experience  before my current job,as I had someone just come up and massage me on my shoulders before in front of other people which put me in a spotlight that I was not ready for. I am aware that the person doing this only meant to be friendly but it was unexpected for me because they did this only after the second time I had met them in person and did it in public in front of multiple people to where some people stopped to watch. For obvious reasons, this comment is only going on my googleplus but my main point is that I do not care how popular you are with even the most beautiful of ladies, it should not be assumed that you can touch another woman in any old way, especially in her abdomen area if you did not ask andor especially if you have only known her a brief time (less than a few weeks). Even then, this goes for women too, if you know that the way that you touch a person might cross the line then refrain from doing so until andor unless your are sure that they would let you andor if you are in doubt only touch them in a way that you would touch a family member/platonic friend, especially if there are multiple people around in public.

Some of this stuff is easier said than done when it comes to being a temporary employee who is in the process of securing legal employment for the summer due to being off from work from part of May until part of August.
However, I agree on the self-confidence part but I have learned the challenging way of being too careful about working to be liked because in real-life there are always going to be some people who naturally accept you and others who you wish well but let go of wanting them to like you.

I understand as an Amazon fan and with my professional/career background that I must try to show neutrality. However, less than 18 months ago, as crazy it sounds, I actually had a dream that was set past  andor around 2080 where Amazon was still thriving and in business. I was inside a large multi train warehouse in an undisclosed location that shipped  Amazon supplies across various locations within just a few hours in what would take at least one to two days during the present day. As a result, there were actually many jobs needed for both the people connected to the trains and the supply workers ordering the supplies connected to the items being shipped across the futuristic Amazon trains. Obviously, the jury is still out on if I am going to live until the year 2080 during my current lifetime. However, when it comes to what this article discusses in how Amazon is playing a role in the grocery business, I can see a connection between the info in this article and the dream set in the future that I had. I spotted this article in my yahoo newsfeed.

I'm actually surprised and thought that Trump would let/allow Sean Spicer to see the pope. Trump may have more power than Sean Spicer right now but Sean Spicer is a high ranking  public affairs officer in the United States Naval Reserve. I guarantee and have a strong feeling that Sean Spicer is going to remember Trump doing this long after Trump is finished with his Presidency. I predict, even though Trump may not see it now being Sean Spicer's boss, that Trump may actually need a favor of some sorts from Spicer, it could even be something related to outside the job,  and he is actually going to have to turn to Sean Spicer at a moment that he least expects.

'That’s all he wanted': Spicer, a devout Catholic, was snubbed from Trump's big meeting with the Pope

songs for me to remember today; say it right nelly furtado (this song reminds me of some happy and carefree moments I  had in the navy),

I'm intuitively and logically aware that there are parents from both sides of the political aisle who are for what Betsy Davos is doing when it comes to school choice and I completely understand why. However, what some of those parents are overlooking is that fact that some of these same schools that they would use as first choice could end up turning away kids with high potential from families that are different from what the school represents if Davos completely gets her way. Yes, I would want my nieces and nephews to be able to go to a better school, and I see many parents having justification of taking advantage of that. However, what if those same schools got more exclusive the next year in turning away students that they accepted the following year in favor of parents from wealthier families andor whoever owned that school saw fit to only include kids whose parents hold political views or some other arbitrary reason even if the kids from other parents holding different political views andor some other arbitrary difference show just as much potential or maybe even more potential.

When Men Talk About Women's Looks


https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/cp/opinion/clinton-trump-first-debate-election-2016/when-men-talk-about-womens-looks
I need to cut and paste the following blurb from Susan Chara's website because I have intuitively figured out the hard way that a multiple number of men that I have worked with in my professional life have judged me on my weight and other women even when they try to cleverly hide it. I am actually harder to trick and I can easily see through deception regardless of how I am perceived to do so. It is actually one of the multiple reasons why I continue to sharpen my intuition. However, I applaud Susan Chira for bravely talking about what women like me have gone through.
“I know that person,” he said. “That person was a Miss Universe person. And she was the worst we ever had, the worst, the absolute worst, she was impossible. She gained a massive amount of weight.”
The person in question is Alicia Machado, the Miss Universe winner in 1996. Mr. Trump threatened to fire her and then invited reporters to watch him put her through a workout. He called her “Miss Piggy,” as Mrs. Clinton reminded the audience last night.
“That joke caused me a lot of pain,” Ms. Machado said in a video the Clinton campaign posted soon after the debate.
Mr. Trump has long had a fixation with women’s weight, and many have felt the sting of his mockery. Join the club. Like most women I know, I’m obsessed with weight and bombarded with cultural messages reinforcing that obsession. Skinny jeans. Clingy knits. Flat bellies. Tight torsos. Low-carb diets. French-women-don’t-get-fat diets. The voices on the outside are often echoing the ones on the inside.

What Mr. Trump doesn’t seem to understand is that when men talk about what women look like, what women hear is somebody saying, “There’s something wrong with you.” Sadly, women are still too vulnerable to that message.

I love this song because it reminds me of part of 2008 and part of 2009 when my husband and I were living in Norfolk Virginia

I am a happily married woman who sexually favors men yet I am comfortable enough in my sexuality to admit when I see the beauty in another female. Many of these women that are romantically featured in Tom Cruise's life are understandable choices given their popularity, accomplishments, andor beauty. However, the one woman I can easily see why Tom Cruise was possibly romantically enthralled by even with her apparently being married is a key player in the Netflix series The Crown: actress Vanessa Kirby who plays Princess Margaret. The picture of Tom Cruise and Vanessa Kirby together does scream chemistry and I for one am curious to see what looks to be sizzling chemistry between them in the movie Mission Impossible 6 that comes out July 2018 (a film that I intend to see).

The Perks of Wintertime Exercise

https://weather.com/health/fitness/news/reasons-to-exercise-outside-even-in-the-cold#/1

for me to remember even when it gets hotter

It's Better for Your Brain

Even walking sans snow can help: Several studies have suggested that a regular walking routine performed anywhere — indoors or out — can affect the growth of new blood vessels in the brain and even brain cell survival, the Harvard Health Letter reported. Other types of aerobic exercise likely have a similar impact, though more research is needed, the author noted.

It Makes You Happier


The get-happy effect of nature is cited as the top reason why outdoor exercisers stick with their routines better than those who sweat indoors. “Compared with exercising indoors, exercising in natural environments was associated with greater feelings of revitalization and positive engagement, decreases in tension, confusion, anger, and depression and increased energy,” authors of the 2011 analysis on exercise adherence said in the study's abstract.

I confess that I would like to see the new Pirates of the Carribbean film Dead  Men Tell No Tales regardless of how it is reviewed for multiple reasons, especially some related to me being a writer. However, as a temporary/seasonal employee whether I see the film in theaters andor when it is released on dvd this year is truthfully tied into how my job search goes a week from now. I luckily have some money coming in this week but my logic and intuition is influencing me to see how my job search situation goes within the next two weeks before deciding whether to see the movie in theaters or wait until it is released on dvd.

My husband and I have been to two different Costcos which were both positive experiences within  past four weeks so this news of Costco expanding is little surprise to me.

Back around 2008, when I was stationed in Norfolk Virginia through the navy, I actually met another sailor through a supply school that was going to be stationed on the USS George H.W. Bush. He seemed both nervous and excited about going there and I hope that wherever he is, that he is ok. Yes, this was over 9 years ago but I actually met someone during my time on the USS Eisenhower who had voluntarily agreed to be on the ship for at least 6 years at the time I met her.

The government is offering up 103 historic buildings – but there’s a catch

http://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/italy-castles-villas-monasteries-give-away-free-100-historic-buildings-a7739001.html

I use to work a job before where one of the jobs I had required me to stock the candy aisle, the snack aisle, and the cookie aisle. I actually first heard this song Laffy Taffy by D4L around 2007 when my husband and I were still living in Mayport Florida via local radio and cable television. I have an idea of the meaning of this shocking yet catchy song and I recently heard this song  on one of the Amazon playlists that were recommended to me online. Now because of hearing this song I am probably not going to see Laffy Taffy candy the same way again.
There is actually an Aldi's store that is pretty close to the apartment that my husband and I live in. I admit that there have been times where I have alternated between shopping at Giant's or Aldi's for my grocery story budget. One reason why I intend to share and keep this link is because I have a strong logical and intuitive feeling that this article is going to come in handy for at least this summer when I am going to be going to Aldi's more often for some of my food grocery shopping

Cyclone by Baby Bash featuring T-Pain is also another song that I first heard in Mayport Florida via local radio and television. I admit that there was at least one time where my husband and I played this song a little loud in a mazda3 car that I was driving in. Regardless of how I am judged, I am going to share and keep this song for positive memories.
Cyclone by Baby Bash feat. TPain can hear through Amazon for free as a prime member and youtube

Lady by Austine Mahone feat. Pitbull is a fun song that I discovered recently online through youtube. Fortunately, I can also listen to this song through Amazon.
Lady by Austin Mahone feat. Pitbull on youtube, Amazon, and other place

I actually first heard this song Let Me Blow Ya Mind by Eve feat. Gwen Stefani  in the early 2000s when  I was first stationed in Yokosuka Japan through a various artists music collection. I am glad that the video to this funny and brilliant song collaboration is available to view online. I also recently noticed that this song is in one of my Amazon music playlists 100 Greatest 2000s Hip-Hop songs (along with some of the other songs that I featured on my facebook timeline today Cyclone by Baby Bash and TPain and Laffy Taffy by D4L.

Both the music video version and audio version of Best Day of My Life by American Authors are good to listen to for both mood boosters and actual
inspiration when it comes to some of the things I enjoy doing such as writing. Yes, I understand that I shared this on social media online before yet I am following my logic and intuition in sharing the link to the audio version of Best Day of My Life by American Authors today.


My husband is actually super supportive of me going back into the navy. There is truthfully only one factor that is indirectly influencing me to put my goal to rejoin the navy on hold. However, now that I have spotted this article today, I intend to think and act more outside the box on dealing with this one factor to give myself a shot at going back in by 2018.

Fortunately, I enjoy this type of love that this song Baby I Love Your Way by Big Mountain describes in this song because of Rusty my husband of 13 years. He is very rarely on facebook yet I still feel comfortable sharing some of the songs that remind me of him because he is there for me through good times and challenging times.  I first heard this song as a teenager through local radio and television. available online through places such as youtube and amazon

I intend to make time for watching the Last Ship tv show this summer, fall, and beyond. However, I am following both my intuition and logic to also keep this link for the Veep tv show and to make some time to watch episodes from that show as well because there is content in the show that is indirectly related to some of the courses that I intend to study and write about online as well as related indirectly to some of my personal/career goals.

Fortunately, it is getting much better temperature wise outside. However, I intend to share and keep this link because of the persuasive benefits that are  listed for a consistent walking routine, which works around my time and money budget. This is important to me because I am aware that I must step it up in my walking routine (persistence and distance wise) if I intend to eventually take the next step/level when it comes to aiming towards being an improved runner. This is also important to me because I have seen too many well meaning articles tout gym membership which are helpful articles in their own right but ignore the fact that a gym membership is not for everybody either due to budget, privacy, andor other concerns.

I am aware that I may be skating into dangerous territory because even I can see when gifted writers affiliated with certain companies may feel a creative vibe to write about either the same company they are affiliated with andor a rival company. However, I admit that I have to credit this article for giving me ideas to start to track and document many of my Amazon purchases for present and future money ideas such as related to writing ideas, how they have tied into my career interests etc. regardless of how I may be perceived. Up until I had spotted this article pertaining to Amazon, I had overlooked an important money mine for multiple good uses until now.

I'm glad that it worked out for Bob Iger but it is not the same thing as an employee such as myself who is working on going back to school for a second bachelors degree to make myself more marketable for a job (public relations/marketing/advertising) that is available in the military, government, and civilian sectors. Additionally, public relations is a field that is available worldwide and available to many women regardless if they are married or older.  The first caveat to my current job is that my current job is only available at a university andor I would need to get approved for a more permanent job and I have tried in vain to apply to a more permanent job connected to my current employer at least three times already since 2016.The second challenge with my current job is that most of the job promotions/year long job assignments that are beyond temporary and are more permanent go either to women who are unmarried if they are older andor a minority or women who are younger. andor attractive As a woman who is mixed race and happily married, I can easily see the signs on my current job wall that I must think beyond putting all of my eggs into one job basket and refocus my efforts into getting a  year round job that would cross over into the government andor military sectors.   However, all the best to Bob Iger in his current life and many more years to come. I have a feeling that we (the general public) is going to hear more about Bob Iger in the years to come, it is evident that he has a happy and bright future ahead of time regardless of how long he stays with Disney andor runs for U.S. President in 2020.

My husband and I want to eventually see the Pirates of the Carribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales film understanding that every person is going to have their own take and opinion on the film. An open mind is necessary as this article takes a more harsher approach to the Pirates films, yet I admit that I am going to keep this article for research.

However, this well meaning article overlooks that the income trajectory is different for many people who are also in the process of improving both their savings and increasing their incomes (or in my case striving to secure career opportunities that would net me more year long/permanent employment due to me being a current temporary/seasonal employee)

30 Tips When You're Walking for Weight Loss

http://www.eatthis.com/walking-for-weight-loss


Tuesday May 30, 2017 and Wednesday May 31, 2017

I am going to have an abundance of time this summer to work on my walking and fitness goals so I figure that I might as well keep this article for encouragement. I admit that the heaviest I have ever been was 217 pounds and I now hover/fluctuate between 177-182.9 pounds which I understand is still alot to carry on a 5 feet and 3 inch frame. I must make it clear that my husband loves me even as I am now which is a positive thing to me as I reluctantly admit that I weighed 119 pounds when we first met in 2002 and I weighted 135 pounds by the time we married on January 22, 2004. My husband loves me how I am but even he understands that some of the reasons why I am working on my weight extend deeper past vanity reasons. A few of my family members have an idea of why I persist on my weight loss goals and I have even confided one of the major reasons to some of my coworkers before less than a couple of months ago.  I understand that it is important to accept yourself how you currently are and I see the positive in men and women who accept themselves as they are body weight wise. However, I know that the personal path I am on requires me to persist and do what I have to in order to continue to work towards my weight loss goals regardless of how long it takes.

It is not an easy decision for me to post this extremely controversial article as I understand that beauty comes in various skin complexions, hair textures/lengths, and body shapes. I have lived in Hyattsville, Maryland since May 19, 2010 (technically still part of the Washington D.C. area) . Additionally, I have been exposed to a wide range of knowledge/history both during my undergrad college years here in the Washington D.C. area and  my high school years in Illinois that  help me understand why the makeup depiction discussed in the article would be considered insensitive, even if the makeup artist expressed that she is being harm-free with her makeup art.  I admit that I also do wonder if the makeup artist did at least try to get a black female model before publishing these controversial makeup photos that are being widely talked about in mainstream media. I prefer to avoid saying anything further on this area and leave it up to others  who may have more informed perspectives on this arena.

Well, if it looks, smells, and tastes like blackface, it's probably blackface.

I'm far from a fan of Trump but if he is fine with allowing Mike Dubke to voluntarily leave his White House Communications director position and help with the transition process then that seems reasonable enough. However, I admit that I do wonder if Dubke is tapped into his workplace grapevine and knows about things that are going to happen weeks andor maybe even days down the road that are not yet even media common knowledge. I say this because I was at a job before where a key assistant manager voluntarily left her position on good terms, which came as a surprise to multiple people as it was common knowledge that she was set to eventually be promoted higher at the same company. I sensed that she was probably seeing and aware of things that were taking place that she had to keep discreet andor secret from most employees. Lo and behold only weeks later, the structure of upper management changed at this particular place and I only wished that I would have listened to my intuition that something was up when one of the most popular female managers was suddenly and voluntarily left. My point; I wonder if Mike Dubke is leaving now because he sees something major that is going to take place. Either way, he is trained in public relations and is leaving a highly prestigious job, which obviously makes it evident to many people of the general public that he is going to easily and successfully find another job related to what he is currently doing and go on to greater professional/career success.
