Bio
I live a quiet, peaceful, non-violent life. And that's the way I want it to be. I have a precious kitten named Nala who appeared at my doorstep in the middle of the night crying, and I kept her. And recently an abandoned baby bunny found me too. He was starving and lost. He now lives in his own home with my kitty and I, and is very happy now. I live in southern California, where everyone knows that the rent and real estate is too high, and the wages aren't. And I have a work-at-home typing business (which I love because it puts me in control). I'm in college pursuing my AA in graphic art. I used to live in a convent. My favorite thing to do is.....nothing. To anyone who ventures through any of my blogs, just be warned that I only write what I see and feel. I try not to look at issues and people and events through a lens, I try to write exactly what I see.

Do I Have A Conscience?

Rate: 2 Flag
Today I was on my way to the bank to deposit a check that sister Louise gave to me for a reimbursement for my school fees. As I was getting reading to walk into the bank I took a look at the check and it was made out for too much, way too much. I thought....I could really use that money right now, I should just keep my mouth shut and keep it. But I didn't. I called sister Louise immediately and told her "you gave me too much money." So she took out the receipt from my school and she could see on the bottom of the recipt the correct amount. I so wanted to keep that check. I could have kept that check and she would have never noticed. She said to bring it back and she'd give me something different. So I drove back and she gave me cash for a much smaller amount. She was so happy that I did that. I was kinda reluctant to give back that money. But after I left I felt better. Because I'm an honest person, even though nobody was looking. And what else is that I am honest with the people that I need to be honest with. Sister Louise is part of Bethany. And the Bethany program helps me a lot. And now she knows that she can trust me.

Alright, I actually went to the gym today too. And I had a pretty good work out. Pretty good I think.

I woke up really early today and made some cinnamon rolls and just began working on the rolodex file for Josh. I got a lot of it done too. I think I'll be finished with it tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the drawing at work. The auction owner is giving away money each month, to all of us drivers. The amount goes up $50 a month, it's up to $500. It's for not having any accidents. Since he's started this drawing there haven't been any accidents. All of the money is given away in $10, $20 and $50's. And they also give away cash for "good attendance." Last month I got a $20 out of the drawing.

This minute I'm in the imac lab at school. This lab is always sooo cold. I have a knitted cap on my head. And right this minute I wish that I would've put on a warmer top, like a sweater. I'm finishing the self promotion brochure. I think I'll post it here.

 

Originally I wanted to design something about baby bunnies. I started working in this project and really started liking baby giraffes. Giraffes are something new for me as far as drawing. They came out cuter than I expected them to be.

Rated for honesty when no one is looking.

PS: Some of us are looking. ;)
It's good to be able to look people in the eye, especially those closest to you. Glad you didn't trade that for a few trinkets :)
I have come to feel that the world is populated with those who possess a conscience and those who don't...not much in between.
