Happy Anniversary Blog!!!! (Belated)

Yesterday, I planned to REALLY slack off at work and devote a mass amount of time to my blog 1 year anniversary. But as the saying goes, "If you want to make God laugh, make plans." I had a little inclination on Monday morning that something was not right with Miss Beasley. She woke up at 5am(the time I normally wake up) and she seemed extra whiny(something I hate). She said she didn't feel well, but I know my child.....she is dramatic......like her mama! I just kept on getting her ready and strangely, she was knocked out asleep before we hit the end of the street. I got a call later on that day at work. It was Miss Silla, telling me to come pick Gabby up from the daycare, she has a fever of 102.00. That was all I needed to hear. I got my ass in gear. But let me sidebar here and let you all know that I learned an important lesson about procrastination. I waited ALL day to do my billing as it only takes me 30 minutes and it was going to cut into my morning "chill time". Do you know I had to finish that before I could pick my baby up because I knew I would not be there the next day and I did not want some HUGE uproar about how I am not doing my work. Hell, they already think I am lazy. So I entered in the billing all willy nilly(forgetting the nursing department) and got the heck out of Dodge. As I drove I felt guilty as hell that I didn't listen to her that morning. You never realize how much you love your kids until they get really sick. When I got to the daycare, Miss Beasley was shivering and they had her in blankets. I picked her up and held her in my arms. Her spirit did not even feel like it's self. Her crazy ass daddy was there(Lord, help me) tomabout, "They don't have my updated information" Negro, please. It is not my responsibility to update your information anymore. A parent would make sure that the daycare had their numbers if they change cell phones, or jobs, or say...move to Atlanta. I digress, we took Miss Beasley to the doctors office(thank God for after-hours appointments). After some poking and prodding and testing of my baby we find out she has strep throat. Gross. I know who the culprit was. My sister, bringing all them GA germs up here. She was sucking back Theraflu while she was here. Uh huh.... I am happy to report Miss Beasley is feeling 100 percent better. Yesterday we did nothing by sit at home and chill. Rev came by that night and we watched Charlotte's Web (for the fifty eleventh time) and later on, Jungle Fever(you know a sister had to buy that one for the collection!). I redid Miss Beasley's two strand twist, and I must say they were looking fly. I cannot wait until I grow the rest of this Chemical Fire Cream(CFC) out of my hair. I think that will be my signature style.
One year ago, I started this blog as an extension of my ramblings on MySpace. I have a passion for writing. If I could make it a productive career, I totally would, but I need to know where my next paycheck is coming from. When I look back from the beginning to now, I see a couple of things: 1)How far I have progressed in my Christianity 2)How scantily I used to post. Since getting back on the blog bandwagon, I this blog has served as a release. It is hard being the fiancee of a Minister, and one of the things I wanted to accomplish on this blog was to break the stereotype of the "First Lady". I am not a Stepford Wife to my Fiance. I am coming to realize that I may never be like those other wives. I still like to bump my slow jams in my car as I speed down the highway. I think 300 dollars is outrageous for a suit. I recently dropped out of the "If I am not there when he preaches, the world will come to an end" club. I am finally finding my way in "this life". Keep reading....the best is yet to come! Be Blessed!
