Difficult conversations – 4/2/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Having difficult conversations has become a regular thing for me. I learned to speak up for myself, but it’s ignored. At least I said it and I can move on. I’m being asked to make decisions and communicate those to the MD’s and certain things that should happen and…

Last call! – 04/01/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. The title of my blog entry is the same as the email I sent today. “Last call for budget needs.” I used this phrase to capture the attention of my audience, LOL! No other way to do it. I needed them to review their budgets to be sure they…

Was I reprimanded? And she’s MIA – 3/18/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was having a good morning getting my day organized and chatting via teams with Director 2 answering questions regarding her budgets. Then she began to explain to me that she had an awkward conversation with MD “LAU,” “I was given a directive that I am not the head…

What is she stuck on? – 3/17/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am just laughing so hard despite the annoying events of today. It’s not funny because there’s important work that takes place, but this woman takes the title “stuck on stupid.” I have never seen it anything like it before. There is one thing that you are intelligent and…

Friday reflection – pushing through – 2/13/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have had challenges this week, but people are beginning to listen and are accepting guidance. I do have people on my side and that’s okay. Despite the many of negative responses and emotions from others I’m holding strong through my experience, facts, and authenticity. A problem-solver I’ve become…

Are you bored? – 2/9/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. It’s been a while since I blogged. I haven’t had a chance to blog and read everyone’s posts either. So, just now I got some time to myself. My son’s birthday, my nieces baby shower, and my brother’s legal battle have kept me a little busy. As we all…

No one wants to talk to you – 2/4/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I don’t like to be mean and I took the time to explain to the Sr. Manager the update on my projects. She tells me no one wants to talk to her and she was wondering why. I, of course, lied and told her I wasn’t sure. It’s not…

Friday reflection – pressure on me again? – 1/23/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. What a stressful week. Boy was I getting it from every direction. What the heck is wrong with people? Had another tough week, busy, and my problem task went smooth yesterday, it worked out. And today was no exception, here we go again. The administrator tried to stress me…

Going with the flow despite the unknown – 1/15/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m being stretched thin. If anyone watched gumby back in the day (90’s) that’s me today. Everyone needs something from me and it hasn’t stopped since the beginning of the year, two weeks ago. I’m still in my element with more confidence each day that passes. I gladly take…

Friday reflection – accountability staring you in the face – 12/19/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. And it is here. I really do not want to say it, but it’s time for people to answer for their careless work. Some haven’t been held to the minimal standard and now it comes out and this is small too and another problem to solve. Director 2 shared…
