RESTORE, RECLAIM, RENEW & BE FRUITFUL

Those are my words for 2009! They are what I need to do in order to get peace back into my heart and soul! I have been off-balance for a good while now, life and sickness got in the way, but I now know where my solution lies.

I "gots thangs" to do and places to go and I want to do them with enthusiasm, purpose and joy! I want to be bear lots of fruit instead of whining about why things haven't gone my way (Thank you Joyce Meyer!)

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control." (Galatians 5:22)

You Are a Grace!

You are a Grace -- "I need to understand the world."



Graces have a need for knowledge and are introverted, curious, analytical, and insightful.



How to Get Along with Me

  • * Be independent, not clingy

  • * Speak in a straightforward and brief manner

  • * I need time alone to process my feelings and thoughts

  • * Remember that If I seem aloof, distant, or arrogant, it may be that I am feeling uncomfortable

  • * Make me feel welcome, but not too intensely, or I might doubt your sincerity

  • * If I become irritated when I have to repeat things, it may be because it was such an effort to get my thoughts out in the first place

  • * don't come on like a bulldozer

  • * Help me to avoid my pet peeves: big parties, other people's loud music, overdone emotions, and intrusions on my privacy




What I Like About Being a Grace
* standing back and viewing life objectively
* coming to a thorough understanding; perceiving causes and effects
* my sense of integrity: doing what I think is right and not being influenced by social pressure
* not being caught up in material possessions and status
* being calm in a crisis



What's Hard About Being a Grace

  • * being slow to put my knowledge and insights out in the world

  • * feeling bad when I act defensive or like a know-it-all

  • * being pressured to be with people when I don't want to be

  • * watching others with better social skills, but less intelligence or technical skill, do better professionally




Graces as Children Often

  • * spend a lot of time alone reading, making collections, and so on

  • * have a few special friends rather than many

  • * are very bright and curious and do well in school

  • * have independent minds and often question their parents and teachers

  • * watch events from a detached point of view, gathering information

  • * assume a poker face in order not to look afraid

  • * are sensitive; avoid interpersonal conflict

  • * feel intruded upon and controlled and/or ignored and neglected




Graces as Parents

  • * are often kind, perceptive, and devoted

  • * are sometimes authoritarian and demanding

  • * may expect more intellectual achievement than is developmentally appropriate

  • * may be intolerant of their children expressing strong emotions

Moving the Office

Hi Guys, sorry I havent posted in 2 weeks.
My office moved over the past week to the next building. It isn't as bad as it could have been. Our office manager is great and she did a wonderful job. Our company owns this building and the building we moved from so it works out fine. Our own landlord. LOL

Anyway, things are good. Thanksgiving was fine. No drama, so I liked that alot.

Our company had its Christmas party last Thursday night and that is always fun. Watching your co-workers get drunk and act a straight fool-big fun! I drank 3 white wine spritzers, did my thang with the Cha Cha Slide and broke out!

Anyway, that's all for now. Will get back at y'all later!

Peace,
Charisse
