You Betta Learn It.....

This past week I have learned a lot. Let's share....fun times....

• I need to keep people out my business

Rev and I have been having our fair share of drama this week regarding people being all up in our pending nuptials. On some Days of our Lives shizz, my mama and my Pastor are conspiring with each other to get me to not marry Rev. My mom always imagined I would marry someone with a pile of money, but the older I get I realize that is not the most important thing(see any post I have written regarding Ron Mexico). From now, on, Rev and I are a united front. Solid as a rock baby!

• Stop the cycle of getting paid, going out to eat fifty 'leven times, and spending 200 dollars at Wally World or Tar-Jay

I have a habit y'all. I love going out to eat. Why? I am too lazy to cook. I am tired when I get home, I have a three year old. Yeah, get there. I love Wally World and Tar-Jay. If I am feeling down or I am lacking something, like every last product that neutragena has ever made, I go to there. It is just something about those places that gets my spending juices flowing. I did a budget today and Rev and I combined have a lot of money left over when we pay all of our bills. I gotta let my fetish go. I guess I will take up another habit.....like smoking...I keed, I keed....

• Exercise + Eating More does NOT equal weight loss

I know that combination sounds crazy.....I was just under the impression that I would just eat what I like and exercise more. Negative. Not a plan. First of July, I am getting a healthier lifestyle poppin'. It's not about being skinny it's about being in shape. I mean that.

• I can sing a lil sumthin sumthin(at least the piano player at church thinks so)

Anyone who knows me, knows I have two big fears. I am afraid of public speaking and I am petrified of singing solo. Well, our musician seems to think my voice has a nice "texture"(his words not mine). He even gave me a song to sing. There is life after Rev and his choir dictatorship ( I still love you babe!)

Well, that is all for now, I am sorry this is so short. So much has been happening, and I just have not been able to verbalize it all. I did want to let everybody know that I have picked out a cake(it's jammin on the ones!) and my dress came Saturday(vision of loveliness). Thanks for reading! Be Blessed!

Pre-School Graduation, Neutrogena, and Flowers.......

Hello, Winners! I am back with good news to report regarding the great acne breakout of 2007. The Neutrogena system worked well. The only downside was the excessive dryness and irritation. I read the instructions(probably something I should have done prior to using) and it said if dryness occurs cut down to every other day. But other than that my skin is starting to look 100 percent better.
Miss Beasley graduated on Friday. I will definitely post pictures yesterday. Her daddy showed up with his hood ass niece looking like she just got off the pole. Jesus Wept. In regards to pre-school graduations, I have to tell you all about the funniest thing I saw. There is a little girl in Miss Beasley's class who's mama said she was going to dress her up. I was like cool, I'm dressing mine up too. I am thinking something like you wear to church. We get to the graduation, that little girl was dressed up like she was going to the PROM! She had a little updo, complete with three spiral curls in the front, a prom dress that looks like it was made for a 4 year old, complete with shawl, pearl necklace and dangly pearl earrings. I thought I was making a big deal.
Last week at work, we got new file cabinets for the medical records office where I work. I swear some people are fascinated by little things. If I hear one more person come in my office and proclaim, "OH MY GOD!!!!! IT"S SO BIG......I DID NOT KNOW IT WAS GOING TO BE LIKE THIS........THAT'S GOING TO BE A LOT OF TURNING......" I am going to scream. Yes, people its a new file cabinet. No, I don't feel closed in. Yes, I know it's bigger than the previous one. Yes, you have to turn the handles to get to the year you want. It's a damn file cabinet not a spaceship. If that fascinates you, you need to get out, live life.
Wedding planning, is...going. I don't know what is going on. This Saturday at 2 we have an appointment for a cake tasting. I know I am going to have a story about that. Next week we are going to the florist. That is going to be the fun part. I love flowers. I am thinking about going with roses. I know they may be cliche, but I love the way pink roses look. I'll keep you posted. Be Blessed!
