Hey everyone and thank you for joining me on my blog tonight. My post is kind of late because I was going to post about my Christmas tree, but. . . Here goes my story lol. A few months back we bought this beautiful 7ft pre-it(which I usually hate) tree from this older couple and they were saying that they were getting rid of it because they were going for a real one this year..... HA! Well the joke was on us tonight because the entire bottom row was burned out. I was really looking forward to putting up our tree and Christmas decorations, and now I'm really bummed! My hubby and I usually put on Christmas music and decorate but I must say we are both a bit annoyed lmao, "well it was GOING to look a lot like Christmas." On a lighter note my son and my niece Phaedra are playing and having a good time, we are having a sleep over and it is pretty eventful so far. They played games together, ate and angel got a bath and Phae took a shower. They watched some of a smurfs Chri

What an Inspiration!

Hey everyone and thank you so much for joining me on my blog tonight! Today I have a special fire inside me.... I found the picture attached on the Internet and my focus today is these amazing children and their families who face the battle of cancer and are robbed of their youth and happiness. I would like everyone to take a moment and just say a prayer for those battling cancer! (thank you!!!) I saw a commercial yesterday with Jennifer Aniston and two young girls who were battling cancer and they wished to get better and have hair and Jennifer Aniston kissed one of their foreheads and said St. Jude is working on it! Ugh, brought me to tears, to think how brave these kids are to face such a fate(survival or not) they are strong and brave and we should continue to support parents with ailing children!!! Today I was playing with my son and as we stopped to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, I was thinking I'd like to write another book. You see I have already written one I just haven

An attitude makes for one UGLY Face!!!

Hey everyone, thanks for joining me today on my blog! This morning I woke up sooooo tired, achy and cranky! I really had to pull myself out of the funk and just try to have a great day with my son. So I got dressed and decided that me and my son were going to run some errands and have Fun! I got a little dressed up in my KARDASHIAN Kollection shirt and shoes and a pair of shirts. I was feeling much better and it gave me a little more pep in my step lol. My son and I went to Target first I found beautiful cloth placemats and with my coupons I only paid $1.07 for 4 of them. Anyway as I'm waiting the customer service line that an employee directed me to I was waiting behind this older woman and she was ranting about how her card was charged for something it shouldn't have been billed for and they better do this and better that or else she's returning the television and get the manager now because you're not listening to me..... The poor lady behind the counter was like ma

Happy Birthday!

Hey everyone thank you for joining me once again on my blog, today I have to dedicate this blog to my beautiful Niece Phaedra. Today is her 6th birthday! HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABYGIRL TITI LOVES YOU SO VERY MUCH!! Today was a very productive day for me. I actually got a boat load of things done around the house and I was able to take a shower during the day(rather than in the early morning or late evening) my son and I laughed and played and I cleaned and then I went to pick up my niece from school and treated her to a happy meal and some playtime with her cousin(my son). As the day is winding down I feel as if there is something I'm missing, I was so busy today and now that I've finished it feels so late lol. I actually have time to relax now which of course I won't do because I'll find a million things to do on the computer and then there is always finding new ways to make my little ham n cheese laugh. He is such a happy little boy! This morning I sat him on his

Well if not, watch it it's a pretty cute movie but anyway I. The movie the lady over years a conversation and thinks its about her but really she only heard enough to make her feel that way. In fact they were not talking about her they really liked her, well something like that happened to me today and I must say I was so sad to think this person was upset at me when I didn't recall doing anything to make them feel this way but that is what happens when you Assume..... I have definitely learned a valuable lesson today, ASK before you assume, it will save you headache and also be much easier on your heart lol. All is well now thank God we cleared that up, and so it&

Sweet Dreams

Hey everyone thanks for checking back in with me! Today I find that in the midst of my own chaotic thoughts no one seems to care very much these days about respect or humility. I am trying to tie in last nights post to this one so stay with me. People deserve to feel that all is not lost in this lifetime, that our youth still has a chance to make major changes that those before us only dreamt about. I'll do my part to make my son see the possibilities in life and to also know the reality and dangers as well. Knowledge is power so with that being said learn, listen, love, laugh and most of all LIVE! Live life each day at a time and try to understand that the choices we make impact our future, but most importantly it will impact the future of those to come after us (like our children). So help someone today change their course for the better! Our generation has more opportunity than ever let's not expect anyone but ourselves to be responsible for our destiny MAKE THIS DAY COUN

Love....happiness......or both?

Hey everyone! Thanks for joining me tonight! I have questions on my mind and I'd love to get some feedback....  Life can be pretty tricky there are many choices we have to make and we pray the ones we make are the right ones... Am I right?  Well tonight I find myself in a battle of the minds.... During the holiday season we come to realize the importance of family and friends and even life itself, yet there are times you can still find there are people who cannot shake the woes if their own daily grind to be in the "Holiday Spirit".  Do we get mad at them? I mean how dare they try to bring us down...right? Do we ignore them and let them be miserable all by themselves? Well I don't know but I'd love to hear what you think!  I think in a situation like this I am going to have to take a moment and breathe deep and try to understand why people can be so down. Patience is key here!  Ill have to put all personal feeling aside and just find out why they're

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey everyone! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!! I must say today was an Amazing Thanksgiving, I missed a lot of my family but I have all of them in my heart always! This morning was chaotic because there is always so many things to do and not enough time to do it in. . . But for the most part I must say I have a wonderful family and I'm so very grateful for everything I have been blessed with in life. My parents opened their home to us all and we each brought a dish of some kind there was a beautiful spread of food. I got the opportunity to meet my newest niece Aubree (Princess Aubree, I call her). She is so precious  and what a cutie pie I fell in love INSTANTLY! My sister in law and Brother drove from Georgia to make it for the holiday, and I'm glad they did! I got to video chat with family that is far and I was able to spend time with family that's close. And in the spirit of family and being thankful here are a few words I'd like to share with everyone tonight........

Time flies.......even when you're not having that much fun!

Hey everyone welcome back to my blog! I'm happy to report that the apple of my eye had me up at 3:30am to play and watch tv and he made me hold his cup of puffs while he rocked back on the sofa lol that little boy is something else but I think he's just adjusting to being without his pacifier this is officially day three (even though my parents gave it to him during nap time) but it was my fault I forgot to tell them :-) Today was a long day but thank God for coffee because it saved my butt today. I left work, picked up my son then I was off to the supermarket. I have to make a salad and a veggie tray to bring to my moms house for Thanksgiving. I really enjoy shopping especially when I have coupons. If you are not an extreme couponer you should really at least give it a try, it's amazing how many things people can get for little or nothing with coupons!!!!! Have you seen those extreme couponing shows? It's so much fun but its truly hard work. I've got a little stoc

The first of many. . .

Hey everyone and welcome to my blog where I will write about anything and everything that I can. I believe that I can change the world one WORD at a time but I've gotta start somewhere. Please do not expect perfect grammar or punctuation all of the time lol I just enjoy writing in the moment and just know I'll try my best. Today was a long day. It started off at work where I just was so tired but I knew I had a lot to do so there was no slacking lol. Then after I got out I went straight to pick up my son from my sister in law who literally saved the day by filling in last minute for the sitter(my mother in law) who is very sick. Mothers really don't get enough credit ya know! So before I forget GO HUG YOUR MOM AND TELL HER YOU LOVE AND APPRECIATE HER!!! I say this because I truly live for my son and when I pick him up from the sitter he does NOT want me lol it breaks my heart but I know (or at least I tell myself) he just doesn't want the fun to end by leaving.  Anywa
