Perfection’s Synonym (Letter to Poet)
The fluid of anticipation drenches my heart as I wait your arrival. As I must stress that your presence is the foundation of my survival. Such a morbid absence lingers around my shell when you leave. Sometimes I have to remind myself that you are merely of flesh, because my heart deceives. My mind into thinking that I have possibly captured an angel. That somehow or someway the universe is going to take this love and untangle. The coils of everything we’ve built though love, trust and commitment. The challenge is purposeless; my internal pulse shows no resentment. Mental rejection is phantom, there’s strength in weakness and you taught me that. So believe that no matter where you go in this world, it’s my heart where your home is at.
You’ve overcome many impediments and I bow to you my obsession of poetic desire. Don’t falter the physical because every spark of you, in me ignites a fire. I yearn for that unreformed simplicity in your tone. I covet that presence of yours that moves my shell to the bone. I plead to be your soul's vitamin; so you are required to take me everyday. No need to dominate because I’ll willingly submit to you in every way. I’m giving you the sole invitation to compress the covers of my love, and give me you. There’s no possible situation in this world we can’t walk as equals through. Mr. Intentional you are, let’s continue to swim in the tempting pools in each others eyes. No more hurt, we will harmoniously laugh at the pain that uses temptation as a disguise.
The world isn’t ready for our association, a true fairytale, something so divine and real. Nothing can break us but God, our connection alone summons existence to be still. I hope that our truth isn’t privy from the inspection of your eyes through false vernacular. False tongues are to be expected while we possess true love, something rare and so spectacular. In years to come our legend will season the lives of the bland with invisible clout. As listening to our stories and seeing our pictures shows them what real love is all about. I will hold on to you, because happiness is hard to keep and real love is hard to find. And I plan on loving you Poet, like Maya said, in and out of time.

Boys: Well. There are a few but I need some reciepts to take a few of them back and choose again. I think that I
am picky when it comes to the men that i surround myself with but I dont see anything wrong with being selfish with my time and space. I think that's smarter than allowing any ole' joe smoe to fill my space. I actually think my nit picking is due to the fear of falling in love with a man-child. I dont want to raise my man. I dont want to go through unnecessary drama. I dont expect a perfect relationship but I do expect a man who can hold his own with or without me.
Money: I swear it never fails. When a little money comes in, bills follow right in behind it making it go right back out. I am still not in the hole, but close enough so that I am penny pinching to make sure that I can stay as comfortable as possible with my bills being on time and paid in full.
School: Well, I didn't study like I needed to so last week didn't end so well....academic wise but this week I am determined to get back on track. You get out what you put in. I didn't study for an A....so that's not what I got.

POSTED ON: Monday, April 11, 2011 @ 6:23 PM | 0 comments
For my first green smoothie I used organic baby spinach that I found at walmart. I used canned
not fresh pineapples because I didnt want to look for the fresh kind in the store. IT was way too many ppl in there. So I used a small can about 8 ounces and I used 2 cups of OJ. I used my new elite blender to blend it and it came out to anywhere between 24-36 ounces. It made a lot and I was
surprised by that. It did take me like at least...um, five minutes to sip it. I mean spinach, pineapples and oj...... doesn't sound good but it actually was ok. I could have over done it on the oj I dont know but that and a nice small salad would have satisfied me. I am excited because I have a whole bundle of banana's and I want to go get some kale to try it with. This green smoothie thing may just be for me after all. Recipe and pics below.
Two handfuls of baby spinach (rinse)
1 cup of pineapples (drained or not your choice)
1.5 cups of orange juice
*blend well 2min minimum*
Side note, I'm going to make another batch before i go to bed and put it in two bottles freeze one and put the other one in the fridge. That way I can sip the one that isn't frozen for breakfast and by the time the other one thaws out sip it if i get hungry in between meals tomorrow. That's the plan....now lets see how well it works.

Sooo, I'm thinking about starting a
cleanse. But not for weight loss... for clarity...I keep reading about how people would go on a cleanse and come out of it successfully with more clarity on everything, better habits and another side effect
good one at that is some weight loss. I figure that it will help me balance my emotions and help my eating habits. I also figure that since now i have so much work to do to finish out the rest of my classes, it would be the perfect time to start now so that any other side effects that I endure can be ignored by writing an essay, studying or completing other assignments. I wanted to do a fruit and vegtable all natural clease for 5-7 days. If the side effects aren't that bad I will go longer. However, if they are I wont because I dont want the backlash. This is one of the cleanses from ehow.com that I came across although I'm not going to be following it.
How to Do a Natural Body Cleanse
X Jennifer Glennon
Body cleanses are the hottest thing to do to lose weight. There are many companies out there that package body cleanses to the masses to help them lose weight. You do not need to spend money on these over priced laxatives. A body cleanse is basically a laxative that has been marketed as a body cleanse to help you to lose weight. The inside of these body cleanses give you a specific diet that you need to follow while on them to help rid your body of toxins. You do not need to take these body cleanse laxatives to cleanse your body of the toxins that have built up over time. A small change in your diet can cleanse your body and start you on the road to healthy weight loss.
Difficulty:Moderately Easy
Instructions
1
While you are on this body cleanse it is important that you stay away from any food that contains any artificial ingredients. These are the items that help your body to build up toxins that stop you from losing weight. One weight loss show that I have watched summed it up best. If you can not pronounce the ingredient then you should not be eating it.
2
There is nothing healthier that you can drink for your body then water. This is plain water. None of the flavored or vitamin waters should be consumed when you are doing a body cleanse. Drink at least 6 bottles of water a day. This will help to keep everything flowing naturally through your body as you do the body cleanse.
3
For breakfast, you need to eat fresh fruit. The denser the fresh fruit is the better that it for your body cleanse. These fruits contain a lot of water that will help to clear out your digestive system.
4
The rest of your meals and snack should contain only fresh and raw fruits and vegetables. This will keep your body from taking in any extra toxins during your body cleanse. Do not use any salt, oils, or dressings on your fruits and vegetables. They will halt the body cleanse in its tracks. You will see a sudden weight loss from the water weight that you will drop when you are on the body cleanse.
5
Follow this fruit and vegetable body cleanse for a week. When you start eating normally again, you will want to eat high fiber carbs and low fat proteins along with your fruits and vegetables. This will help to increase the weight that you will lose from having done a body cleanse.
Here is another one.
Natural Recipes for Body Cleansing
X Amber D. WalkerAmber D. Walker has been writing professionally since 1989. She has had essays published in "Fort Worth Weekly," "Starsong," "Paper Bag," "Living Buddhism" and more. Walker holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from the University of Texas and worked as an English teacher abroad for six years.
By Amber D. Walker, eHow Contributor
.Body cleanses rid the body of toxins and impurities and help you to lose weight. Though scientists dispute the necessity of body cleansing, many people report feeling both better and healthier after a cleanse. There are many products sold to aid in body cleansing and detoxification, but you can do natural body cleansing yourself, cheaper and more naturally. Natural body cleansing is also less harsh on the system than using things such as enemas or laxatives.
Colon Cleansing
When beginning body cleanses, many people start with the colon. Colon cleansing is recommended by Dr. Ben Kim for a number of ailments such as constipation and irritable bowel syndrome, and is considered a good all-around place to start detoxifying your system.
A simple colon cleanse is a water fast. This can be too much for beginners, as the psychological and physical effects of not eating for several days can be difficult to handle. But a water fast can promote colon cleansing with no need to buy special ingredients. Water fasts are exactly what they sound like: going for a certain number of days consuming nothing but pure water.
Juice and fruit fasting will also cause a cleansing of the colon. In juice fasting, you consume only the juice of fresh (preferably organic) fruits for a certain amount of time, generally one or two weeks to thirty days. Fruit fasting is a similar diet. Those on a fruit fast eat only fresh fruits for ten days to two weeks, or longer.
There are also homemade recipes for colon cleansing using only fruits, herbs and water. One recipe calls for white raisins, senna (an herb) and rose hips extract. The raisins and senna are boiled in 1 L of water each and then left to infuse for thirty minutes. The raisins and senna are then filtered out, all the liquid poured into one container, and 200 g of rose hips added. Drink 100 ml of the mixture daily.
Another recipe reputed to be good for colon cleansing is raw green soup. The soup is made with 2 to 3 cucumbers (peeled), 1 or 2 avocados, 1/2 of a yellow onion, the juice of half a lemon, 3 cloves of roasted garlic, 2 cups of vegetable stock, 1 tbsp. of cilantro, 1 tbsp. of parsley and 1 seeded jalapeno pepper. All of the ingredients are blended together and consumed without heating.
Full Body Cleansing
If you prefer to not focus on one part of your body at a time, you can perform a full-body cleanse. Green smoothies can be used as a full-body cleanse. Just blend dark, leafy greens such as spinach or kale with water or juice and a complimentary choice of fruit together, then drink. One easy recipe for green smoothies is 2 cups of fresh spinach, 2 seeded peaches, and one cup of orange juice.
The master cleanse is also used as a full-body detoxifier. The master cleanse generally consists of drinking nothing but a lemonade made of 10 oz. of water, 2 tbsp. of freshly-squeezed lemon juice, 2 pinches of cayenne pepper, and 2 tbsp. of maple syrup for three to fourteen days. It is also recommended by MasterCleanse.Org that you either begin or end the day with a saltwater flush, consuming 2 tbsp. of sea salt dissolved into 32 oz. of water.

See...this is why not all people in uniforms get respected... i mean. So Tusday on my way home. I had the pleasure of standing on a crowded bus stop with two bus drivers who were having a little
too much fun. One of them made a joke about a lady and that entire side of the busstop (about 8-12 people) cracked up laughing. The other one had a digital camera and walked around her and TOOK her picture. THEN...to make matters even worse got on another bus with the door open and showed another bus driver the womans pictures started laughing right there in her face. I was sooooooo appauled. I was pissed off. Now im not the petty type but the bus driver that made the joke looks like a burnt lizard. He is short, black as hell and will NOT be the next america's top model in any way shape or form. I mean he's puts ugly people to shame. What makes it worse is that he tries to be a comedian EVERY day of the week. He's always talking mess about SOMEBODY it's actually pretty sad that he does that since he's at minimum 48. I mean come on at
some point you
HAVE to grow the F*** up. NExt.... the female bus driver, the one with the camera is like 5'8 and at LEAST 320, she looks to be in her late 20's to early 30's. once again...it's time for you to grow the F*** up. This is childish. That woman had just gotten off work and didn't deserve to have to grow through that. That was a mess. So when I got home I called and complained. I hated being put in the position to have to listen to that. I felt so bad for her. Getting off work and having to deal with that...smdh. Now I am going home today to call and see what was done about it.

Have we stopped liking our chocolate hue that much that she feels comfortable walking around looking like this? Comfortable knowing that her face is 2000 hues lighter than her neck and the rest of her body.....really? She
really painted that shit on....smdh
so that was my first reaction. I wanted to save this picture because it just speaks volumes and not only on this particular girl. But on the state of black girls and women.
NOT the black girl lost. There aren't too many of those because these black girls/women that need help aren't lost. They are just over stimulated. Told too many things and told that they could yet can't be all of them. So they try. and try. and try. and THAT picture is the result of the trying. Why you would need to be that many hues lighter than what you really are is BEYOND me.

Moon Child
The presence of the moon fills her bejeweled eyes
That sparkle like the mist that dances in the bittersweet skies
Her iridescent skin plays tribute to the beauty that's undisguised
The perfectness that forms her face, is found where her smile is revised
Floating in the veil of darkness, concealed by the expanse of sea
Her eyes swim in the isolation from the day, product of bullion's melody
The clouded skies start to hold her hostage and consume her view,
until all entities surrounding her are plagued with morning dew
The water that splashes the shores, forms it and gives it a rebirth
As her pupils notice and dwell upon the image of the weakened earth
She gives herself up to a particular landscape in her mind
Looking for the beauty that her eyes hasn't seen, but yet so many others find
Her heart is stolen by the faintest motions of the wind that her attention confines
She imagines that she touches and directs it with her hand to unwind
The remembrance of the moon child and sun's blessed neonate
As she fades in the glare of the lurking shadow and all the colors of fate
I
rememberwriting this. One of my favorite non
adult ones.

Ok. So today the kids came over around 2 or 3.
We went to my mother's house to feed her dog..., then went to family dollar to get some tp....now. I went in to spend about 10 bucks on tp but spent 26 on tp and some damn toys...That is reason number
one million twelve why I don't like taking kids to the store. Needless to say Jay whined about how hot it was (although with the weather being the way it has been for the past three months I welcome to heat). Jaz couldn't keep her thumb out her mouth nor her mouth shut. That girl
never runs out of anything to talk about. Well, we got home, I didnt feel like doing it but I took them to the park in my apartments because I figure it's going to rain for the next few days so if I didn't take them today they probably wouldn't see a park again until well into next week. After the park we tracked down the ice cream truck and they went outside and played cops and robbers. Jazzy was the cop...and aparently the robber because after she handcuffed jay (after chasing him for like.....um ever..) she robbed him. lol. Anyways, I came in, studied m118 and baked the peppy pizza and heart cookies for dinner/desert. Nowwwwww, Jazzy's two black barbies were in the midst of arguing over a dog...or something and she announced to them and us that she has to "pee pee" and that she'd be right back. Jay is like always...playing a game.

Well.....so far it's been kinda boring. I mean, I think it's taking too long to get to the meat of the story.
I'm one chapter in! HA!. Seriously, it went from her meeting a creepy
German lady in the museum, to her picking a fight about eating her husbands chocolate cake while he wasnt there, to her being separated from her husband and son and her thinking that he left her there, so she went home and they never
showed up.....wow!!! They just found the husband and the baby is gone. He hasn't woken up but although at the beginning of the book all she wanted him to do was love on her like he
did when they were first together, now she wants to beat him because she wants to know what
he did with the baby..... I mean i know that she is just going through the motions but still..... um k. reading on.

Creature of Habit
POSTED ON: Saturday, April 2, 2011 @ 5:48 PM | 0 comments
I am trying to find some self help guru advice on breaking habits. Everything we do is a habit, no matter if it's good or bad, it's a habit. What we eat, our lifestyles, our relationships, our fears.....they are all habits. I have a few that I want to break.
-what I eat
-how i think (self-talk)
-what I accept (relationships)
My thing is I am
25 years old! I want a family by
35 and in order to have a happy healthy family I feel like I have to get myself together. I dont want to be with someone for six or seven years and marry them because....um, we've been together for six or seven years and apparently theres a limit on how long two people can date without being married. I want to be happy, I will take whatever baby mama drama or family drama that comes along because life is life. It's not a smooth ride but I sure dont want a bad relationship making it worse.
When a woman falls in love, she falls in love. Period. I know it's going to happen and when it does I want it
to be right. I dont want to have to make excuses for my man. I dont want to have to restart our relationship a million times because although I know I should stick a fork in it, I dont want to. I have my friends now but i dont want to be in a relationship right now. I'm having more fun setting goals and trying to further my program. #thankyouverymuch

Perfection’s Synonym (Letter to Poet)
The fluid of anticipation drenches my heart as I wait your arrival. As I must stress that your presence is the foundation of my survival. Such a morbid absence lingers around my shell when you leave. Sometimes I have to remind myself that you are merely of flesh, because my heart deceives. My mind into thinking that I have possibly captured an angel. That somehow or someway the universe is going to take this love and untangle. The coils of everything we’ve built though love, trust and commitment. The challenge is purposeless; my internal pulse shows no resentment. Mental rejection is phantom, there’s strength in weakness and you taught me that. So believe that no matter where you go in this world, it’s my heart where your home is at.
You’ve overcome many impediments and I bow to you my obsession of poetic desire. Don’t falter the physical because every spark of you, in me ignites a fire. I yearn for that unreformed simplicity in your tone. I covet that presence of yours that moves my shell to the bone. I plead to be your soul's vitamin; so you are required to take me everyday. No need to dominate because I’ll willingly submit to you in every way. I’m giving you the sole invitation to compress the covers of my love, and give me you. There’s no possible situation in this world we can’t walk as equals through. Mr. Intentional you are, let’s continue to swim in the tempting pools in each others eyes. No more hurt, we will harmoniously laugh at the pain that uses temptation as a disguise.
The world isn’t ready for our association, a true fairytale, something so divine and real. Nothing can break us but God, our connection alone summons existence to be still. I hope that our truth isn’t privy from the inspection of your eyes through false vernacular. False tongues are to be expected while we possess true love, something rare and so spectacular. In years to come our legend will season the lives of the bland with invisible clout. As listening to our stories and seeing our pictures shows them what real love is all about. I will hold on to you, because happiness is hard to keep and real love is hard to find. And I plan on loving you Poet, like Maya said, in and out of time.

Sooo, I'm thinking about starting a
cleanse. But not for weight loss... for clarity...I keep reading about how people would go on a cleanse and come out of it successfully with more clarity on everything, better habits and another side effect
good one at that is some weight loss. I figure that it will help me balance my emotions and help my eating habits. I also figure that since now i have so much work to do to finish out the rest of my classes, it would be the perfect time to start now so that any other side effects that I endure can be ignored by writing an essay, studying or completing other assignments. I wanted to do a fruit and vegtable all natural clease for 5-7 days. If the side effects aren't that bad I will go longer. However, if they are I wont because I dont want the backlash. This is one of the cleanses from ehow.com that I came across although I'm not going to be following it.
How to Do a Natural Body Cleanse
X Jennifer Glennon
Body cleanses are the hottest thing to do to lose weight. There are many companies out there that package body cleanses to the masses to help them lose weight. You do not need to spend money on these over priced laxatives. A body cleanse is basically a laxative that has been marketed as a body cleanse to help you to lose weight. The inside of these body cleanses give you a specific diet that you need to follow while on them to help rid your body of toxins. You do not need to take these body cleanse laxatives to cleanse your body of the toxins that have built up over time. A small change in your diet can cleanse your body and start you on the road to healthy weight loss.
Difficulty:Moderately Easy
Instructions
1
While you are on this body cleanse it is important that you stay away from any food that contains any artificial ingredients. These are the items that help your body to build up toxins that stop you from losing weight. One weight loss show that I have watched summed it up best. If you can not pronounce the ingredient then you should not be eating it.
2
There is nothing healthier that you can drink for your body then water. This is plain water. None of the flavored or vitamin waters should be consumed when you are doing a body cleanse. Drink at least 6 bottles of water a day. This will help to keep everything flowing naturally through your body as you do the body cleanse.
3
For breakfast, you need to eat fresh fruit. The denser the fresh fruit is the better that it for your body cleanse. These fruits contain a lot of water that will help to clear out your digestive system.
4
The rest of your meals and snack should contain only fresh and raw fruits and vegetables. This will keep your body from taking in any extra toxins during your body cleanse. Do not use any salt, oils, or dressings on your fruits and vegetables. They will halt the body cleanse in its tracks. You will see a sudden weight loss from the water weight that you will drop when you are on the body cleanse.
5
Follow this fruit and vegetable body cleanse for a week. When you start eating normally again, you will want to eat high fiber carbs and low fat proteins along with your fruits and vegetables. This will help to increase the weight that you will lose from having done a body cleanse.
Here is another one.

.Body cleanses rid the body of toxins and impurities and help you to lose weight. Though scientists dispute the necessity of body cleansing, many people report feeling both better and healthier after a cleanse. There are many products sold to aid in body cleansing and detoxification, but you can do natural body cleansing yourself, cheaper and more naturally. Natural body cleansing is also less harsh on the system than using things such as enemas or laxatives.
Colon Cleansing
When beginning body cleanses, many people start with the colon. Colon cleansing is recommended by Dr. Ben Kim for a number of ailments such as constipation and irritable bowel syndrome, and is considered a good all-around place to start detoxifying your system.
A simple colon cleanse is a water fast. This can be too much for beginners, as the psychological and physical effects of not eating for several days can be difficult to handle. But a water fast can promote colon cleansing with no need to buy special ingredients. Water fasts are exactly what they sound like: going for a certain number of days consuming nothing but pure water.
Juice and fruit fasting will also cause a cleansing of the colon. In juice fasting, you consume only the juice of fresh (preferably organic) fruits for a certain amount of time, generally one or two weeks to thirty days. Fruit fasting is a similar diet. Those on a fruit fast eat only fresh fruits for ten days to two weeks, or longer.
There are also homemade recipes for colon cleansing using only fruits, herbs and water. One recipe calls for white raisins, senna (an herb) and rose hips extract. The raisins and senna are boiled in 1 L of water each and then left to infuse for thirty minutes. The raisins and senna are then filtered out, all the liquid poured into one container, and 200 g of rose hips added. Drink 100 ml of the mixture daily.
Another recipe reputed to be good for colon cleansing is raw green soup. The soup is made with 2 to 3 cucumbers (peeled), 1 or 2 avocados, 1/2 of a yellow onion, the juice of half a lemon, 3 cloves of roasted garlic, 2 cups of vegetable stock, 1 tbsp. of cilantro, 1 tbsp. of parsley and 1 seeded jalapeno pepper. All of the ingredients are blended together and consumed without heating.
Full Body Cleansing
If you prefer to not focus on one part of your body at a time, you can perform a full-body cleanse. Green smoothies can be used as a full-body cleanse. Just blend dark, leafy greens such as spinach or kale with water or juice and a complimentary choice of fruit together, then drink. One easy recipe for green smoothies is 2 cups of fresh spinach, 2 seeded peaches, and one cup of orange juice.
The master cleanse is also used as a full-body detoxifier. The master cleanse generally consists of drinking nothing but a lemonade made of 10 oz. of water, 2 tbsp. of freshly-squeezed lemon juice, 2 pinches of cayenne pepper, and 2 tbsp. of maple syrup for three to fourteen days. It is also recommended by MasterCleanse.Org that you either begin or end the day with a saltwater flush, consuming 2 tbsp. of sea salt dissolved into 32 oz. of water.

See...this is why not all people in uniforms get respected... i mean. So Tusday on my way home. I had the pleasure of standing on a crowded bus stop with two bus drivers who were having a little
too much fun. One of them made a joke about a lady and that entire side of the busstop (about 8-12 people) cracked up laughing. The other one had a digital camera and walked around her and TOOK her picture. THEN...to make matters even worse got on another bus with the door open and showed another bus driver the womans pictures started laughing right there in her face. I was sooooooo appauled. I was pissed off. Now im not the petty type but the bus driver that made the joke looks like a burnt lizard. He is short, black as hell and will NOT be the next america's top model in any way shape or form. I mean he's puts ugly people to shame. What makes it worse is that he tries to be a comedian EVERY day of the week. He's always talking mess about SOMEBODY it's actually pretty sad that he does that since he's at minimum 48. I mean come on at
some point you
HAVE to grow the F*** up. NExt.... the female bus driver, the one with the camera is like 5'8 and at LEAST 320, she looks to be in her late 20's to early 30's. once again...it's time for you to grow the F*** up. This is childish. That woman had just gotten off work and didn't deserve to have to grow through that. That was a mess. So when I got home I called and complained. I hated being put in the position to have to listen to that. I felt so bad for her. Getting off work and having to deal with that...smdh. Now I am going home today to call and see what was done about it.

Have we stopped liking our chocolate hue that much that she feels comfortable walking around looking like this? Comfortable knowing that her face is 2000 hues lighter than her neck and the rest of her body.....really? She
really painted that shit on....smdh
so that was my first reaction. I wanted to save this picture because it just speaks volumes and not only on this particular girl. But on the state of black girls and women.
NOT the black girl lost. There aren't too many of those because these black girls/women that need help aren't lost. They are just over stimulated. Told too many things and told that they could yet can't be all of them. So they try. and try. and try. and THAT picture is the result of the trying. Why you would need to be that many hues lighter than what you really are is BEYOND me.

Moon Child
The presence of the moon fills her bejeweled eyes
That sparkle like the mist that dances in the bittersweet skies
Her iridescent skin plays tribute to the beauty that's undisguised
The perfectness that forms her face, is found where her smile is revised
Floating in the veil of darkness, concealed by the expanse of sea
Her eyes swim in the isolation from the day, product of bullion's melody
The clouded skies start to hold her hostage and consume her view,
until all entities surrounding her are plagued with morning dew
The water that splashes the shores, forms it and gives it a rebirth
As her pupils notice and dwell upon the image of the weakened earth
She gives herself up to a particular landscape in her mind
Looking for the beauty that her eyes hasn't seen, but yet so many others find
Her heart is stolen by the faintest motions of the wind that her attention confines
She imagines that she touches and directs it with her hand to unwind
The remembrance of the moon child and sun's blessed neonate
As she fades in the glare of the lurking shadow and all the colors of fate
I
rememberwriting this. One of my favorite non
adult ones.

Day 1
POSTED ON: @ 5:58 PM | 0 comments
Ok. So today the kids came over around 2 or 3.
We went to my mother's house to feed her dog..., then went to family dollar to get some tp....now. I went in to spend about 10 bucks on tp but spent 26 on tp and some damn toys...That is reason number
one million twelve why I don't like taking kids to the store. Needless to say Jay whined about how hot it was (although with the weather being the way it has been for the past three months I welcome to heat). Jaz couldn't keep her thumb out her mouth nor her mouth shut. That girl
never runs out of anything to talk about. Well, we got home, I didnt feel like doing it but I took them to the park in my apartments because I figure it's going to rain for the next few days so if I didn't take them today they probably wouldn't see a park again until well into next week. After the park we tracked down the ice cream truck and they went outside and played cops and robbers. Jazzy was the cop...and aparently the robber because after she handcuffed jay (after chasing him for like.....um ever..) she robbed him. lol. Anyways, I came in, studied m118 and baked the peppy pizza and heart cookies for dinner/desert. Nowwwwww, Jazzy's two black barbies were in the midst of arguing over a dog...or something and she announced to them and us that she has to "pee pee" and that she'd be right back. Jay is like always...playing a game.

Lullaby - Clarie Seeber
Well.....so far it's been kinda boring. I mean, I think it's taking too long to get to the meat of the story.
I'm one chapter in! HA!. Seriously, it went from her meeting a creepy
German lady in the museum, to her picking a fight about eating her husbands chocolate cake while he wasnt there, to her being separated from her husband and son and her thinking that he left her there, so she went home and they never
showed up.....wow!!! They just found the husband and the baby is gone. He hasn't woken up but although at the beginning of the book all she wanted him to do was love on her like he
did when they were first together, now she wants to beat him because she wants to know what
he did with the baby..... I mean i know that she is just going through the motions but still..... um k. reading on.

Creature of Habit
POSTED ON: Saturday, April 2, 2011 @ 5:48 PM | 0 comments
I am trying to find some self help guru advice on breaking habits. Everything we do is a habit, no matter if it's good or bad, it's a habit. What we eat, our lifestyles, our relationships, our fears.....they are all habits. I have a few that I want to break.
-what I eat
-how i think (self-talk)
-what I accept (relationships)
My thing is I am
25 years old! I want a family by
35 and in order to have a happy healthy family I feel like I have to get myself together. I dont want to be with someone for six or seven years and marry them because....um, we've been together for six or seven years and apparently theres a limit on how long two people can date without being married. I want to be happy, I will take whatever baby mama drama or family drama that comes along because life is life. It's not a smooth ride but I sure dont want a bad relationship making it worse.
When a woman falls in love, she falls in love. Period. I know it's going to happen and when it does I want it
to be right. I dont want to have to make excuses for my man. I dont want to have to restart our relationship a million times because although I know I should stick a fork in it, I dont want to. I have my friends now but i dont want to be in a relationship right now. I'm having more fun setting goals and trying to further my program. #thankyouverymuch
