Random Thoughts

I know that I have told you before about my friend weeding and I have actually found that I really have not had to make much of an effort to do this lately.
I have noticed that my “negative” friends in my life are not really making a point to keep in touch with me either. I am thinking that, what makes sense, is that when you are unhappy, happy people just seem to irritate you even more and make you uncomfortable, so you leave them alone. Is this making sense to anyone else out there?

I know that I used to vent about such happy people in my life when I was angry all the time. So maybe now my positive outlook is driving those nuts that are not on my same path. Too bad isn’t it? I wish that everyone in my life was on this same journey, it is just such a happier place to be!

Not that I am bragging and thinking that I am the “bomb” or better then anyone else. I am merely stating what seems to be happening in my life and I can’t complain about it. Maybe one day those old friends will see my change and want it too and we can reconnect again on a more positive note and build each other up instead of bringing each other down. That is my hope anyway!

I hope you are all having a positively positive day!

Positive anything is better than negative nothing. –From The Road to Success is Always Under Construction

What you see is what you get! –Geraldine (a.k.a. Flip Wilson)

Don’t cry because it is over. Smile because it happened. –Dr. Suess
 
The second one is/was the hardest for me! What you see is what you get! We have all heard this before and for some reason(s) there are many of us that keep trying to change into something that can never be. Why is that? For me, before my journey, it was the fear that I was never enough.
I went to school for 10 years, got a BS and a MS and still was not satisfied. I was never quite sure why but I just never felt that “finished” feeling. Of course it is great for us to better ourselves but that is not what i was really doing.
 
I always felt like I had something to prove and I kept saying “well if I just do this then I will feel worth while.” The problem is that I was/am already worth while but I kept letting my head get in the way and telling myself that I needed more! Now I have a $56,000 student loan and no job. Of course I chose to be a stay-at-home Mom right now but if you would have asked me 10 years ago if I were to be one I probably would have said “I have more goals than being a Mom, jeez!”
 
I am not putting this out there to offend anyone, this is seriously where my mind set was. I always thought I had to have all the pressure of school, career etc to feel like I was worth a darn. Since I have been on this positive energy journey I am realizing that I AM good enough and that I AM worth while.
 
I always said I would get my PhD in the past but you know what….now….no way! I am not in any way shape or form ridiculing those that have one, I am just saying that my reasons for wanting one were not right and I am not going to let myself get back into something that I really do not want to do.
 
Do I regret getting an education? Oh NOW WAY! I believe education is important. I justt wish that I would have been OK with myself back in school and the years prior. Maybe I would still have the MS degree, who knows, but maybe not. Who knows where I wold have ended up. I know that I would be in the right place regardless.
 
I see things in such a different way then I did before and I love it. I am finally starting to believe that “what you get” is just fine!
 
Have a positively positive day!

The company has granted my warranty a number of times and they have actually not fought me too hard on it so I can’t complain about that either. What I can complain about is this:

I called on my 3rd tilt 2 phone and told them the freezing was better, not gone, but better when I did not install the FB or Twitter on it. She said “well your warranty does not cover those programs so just don’t install them.” OK well I guess I won’t because I like how it runs better but this is my argument. The phone it self comes with both FB and Twitter shortcuts on the today screen , out of the box. Now if you are telling me that I should not run them then can I make a suggestion?  Don’t put it on my today screen because to me that is advertising that this phone can handle it! Point!

Am I the only one that see this point? The warranty does not cover it is a little disheartening for the same reason. If this was an application that I added to the phone myself I would so totally not have issues with the warranty not covering it. This is NOT the case. The phone comes with these on my opening screen so for me this is just as good as someone saying “this phone can handle them so use them!”

Well it did not take care of the freezing problem totally so I got a new one, this is #4 and guess what….it freezes too. Did I install FB and Twitter, aw no. So will I be calling again on Monday? “YES.” I will then be taken through on the trouble shooting mumbo jumbo I have done numerous time. Will I accept a tilt 2 phone again as a replacement? “NO!” I am so not being nice again. This wold be phone 5. Do you think its me? I don’t think so! They freeze out of the box. HTC even has a service pack for it on their site but it does not work either.

Again, just to be clear. I do not dislike AT&T at all and have had the best service I have ever had talking around my neck of the woods and everywhere else including Canada. I have more good then bad to say. My biggest gripe is this warranty issue. I wish my company was gong to web based software NOW and not waiting til the summer, argh!!!!!

have a wonderful day everyone!
