Micromanage

What is the definition of micromanagement? Well, according to the Websters dictionary it is: "To manage with great or excessive control, or attention to details." Most people consider this a negative thing, me being one of them. Most people would like to be left alone to do there work but when you are micromanaged it is difficult. There is no need to be so specific and so detailed that it drives others mad... A great manager should hire the very best people out there and give them the tools they need to do the job. Make sure that you communicate and give recognition when deserved. 

Thought for the day

God doesn't give you the people you want, he gives you the people you need. To help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you, and to make you into the person you were meant to be.

Holidays

So I have to say, holidays are much more important now that I have a son. I actually decorated and carved pumpkins for the first time! I want my son to have everything I didn't growing up. I want him to experience all the good things that come along with it. Halloween was great! I dressed him up and we just had the best time playing and passing out candy. Although he's not old enough to help carve pumpkins he still wanted to participate. He had to know what mommy was doing! He gets so excited over the littlest things, it's great! I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving and I'm even more excited about Christmas. Some people say that they don't understand or even care about gifts and all the stuff that goes along with it. Even though he can't talk he knows something special is going on. He's such a smart boy.

The Pig Sickness

So I finally managed to get over this sickness. It has been a week and it wasn't so easy. I still can't figure out why everyone is making such a huge deal over the swine flu. It is just like influenza. Every time I turn on the news I hear about it. Why can't they talk about something more important and meaningful. Just as many people die for influenza as they do H1N1. What about all the people that die every day from more serious things such as cancer, emphysema, and HIV. Or how many people die from smoking, car accidents, and even hunger. This so called epidemic is getting on my nerves even more so than Jon and Kate Gosselin. Get over it people!!

Supermom

I often wonder where the term "supermom" came from. I do my absolute best everyday trying to juggle my work and home life. I wake up at the last minute because I don't know what sleeping in is anymore. While trying to get ready for work, I'm taking care of and playing with my wonderful son. Time with him means more to me than putting on makeup. Who has time for that anyway? As I try to do my hair, he's busy getting into something he's not supposed to. I put him back to bed so daddy can rest, and than rush to work. After my long day at work it's time to get home quickly because it's daddy's time to make some money. There really isn't enough hours in the day!! By this time Bam's hungry so I feed him while trying to clean. After chasing him around for a couple of hours, I get him ready for bed. I give him a bath, read him a story, and sing him a song. Now it's my time to relax. So instead of going to bed like I should, I stay up. I have to wind down from a long day. 12 o'clock rolls around and I know I need to get some shut eye. I get my dogs Zoey and Lilly and we go to bed. I get up the next day and do it all over again. I would like to think i'm doing a great job but sometimes I question it. Being a mom isn't easy at all. I probably wouldn't know what to do with myself if I didn't have bam. So every night I thank god for being so blessed. I enjoy every minute I have with my son. He means the world to me. Every single crazy and hectic day melts away every time I see him smile.
