Pet Peeves



I am sitting here trying to think positive and be happy but . . .

PET PEEVES

1. Men who don't take no for an answer. If I have told you for the last three weeks I am not interested . . GUESS WHAT? I am NOT interested.

2. Running the vacuum three times a day cause the dog is shedding. I am not mad at the dog. He can't help it.

3. The fact that for the last three weeks I have ignored the fact that the weeds need pulled in the front yard from among the flowers. Maybe this weekend I will take care of it . . my neighbors hate me :)

4. Black people and the term "stop snitching". I guess we rather have crime ridden neighborhoods. I am sorry but have a prayer vigil is not going to make it stop.

5. Sending someone something a week ago and still sitting around waiting for an answer.
My time is vaulable too.

6. Typing this when I should be working on the media kit. It not the blog it is my lack of staying focus that bothers me.

That is what is botherig me right at this moment . . tomorrow there will be more .. I am sure.

Conversations and Overhearing




Me: Mommy's a little tired. I am going to to take a 15 minute nap. (Gets up and walks toward the stairs)

Son: Make it 30 minutes (sarcastically to himself)

Me: *giggles* WOW

Watching one of the Betty White skits on SNL . . .repeat On Demand. She is on a radio talk show talking about "muffins". After a minute into the skit . . .

Me: you know they are really being nasty and talking about Va-ja-ja.

Daughter: I know this mommy (as if I insulted her teenage intelligence).

Me: Oh yeah (raise eyebrow) and what else do you know?

Daughter: *giggles

Me: Whatever

Promoting my Love: My Site

So, here I am listening to Ciara's Goodies CD.

I woke thinking up this CD. Singing a few songs. Moving my body. Feeling pretty good. I like this CD. I can listen to the entire CD without skipping. Plus, it was time to give Maxwell a break.
So, here I am sitting at my dining room table with papers, magazines, notebooks, catalogs, markers and pens everywhere. I can't decide where I want to work from home at. I tried my bedroom but the bed and TV interfere with my productivity. I have my desk down in the game room but the TV, children, and not feeling the space made me not get things done. So, now I am at the dining room table trying to see if this feels right. I covered the table with a plastic cloth (can't have the glass scratched) and it may work but I hate the mess. Plus, I would have to bring more items into my dining room which would mean it will no longer be magazine clean.

I don't have an extra room so, something has to give. I figure that if things work out I'll be moving soon anyway. Or at least rent an office space.
So, the dining room looks like it will become the office and the living room (which no one sits in) a storage space. I have orders of bags and other things coming in.


Notice how I like to say so . . a lot. Well, so what. HAHA.

Besides, business I need to get back to writing. That plays a major part in the upcoming plans.

I got to get my hustle on.

For those of you who haven't guessed . . I have another site too.


Queen in Heels is about two things high heels and empowering women. (Something I had to remind myself of when I was moping) It was time to get back on the throne.

So, the site is about to undergo major changes . . . games, a community, etc . .and I am super excited (and one major project being planned . . I am so gitty about it).

But the reason I am talking about it here is because for my lovely ladies who are reading this I want to tell you about two features.

First are the interviews: Queens in Heels . . those are for women who are making waves, striving hard, accomplishing goals, and chasing dreams. So, if you are interested let me know. (We will need a picture of you to put up with the interview . . and I like to interview preferably by phone . . don't like email much)(plus any links or things you want mentioned go up).

Second the guest spots: If you want to write a post. All credit and linking back to you and your spot . . about heels, empowerment, or both (any photos pertaining to the post will do)Let me know.

For both: they will be featured on the home page for two weeks.

I Know Blog Sorry


* I know I haven't blogged here in a few. Don't know what it is. It is not that I couldn't make the time it is just that I haven't felt like it.

* I have been suffering from a brokeheart for the last two months. Seems it will last for a few more.

* How can I go to the nail salon on Friday to get my toes done and the polish is chipped off Monday. #FAILNAILSALON I haven't been anywhere all weekend.

* Any time I put in a CD . . .it is Maxwell (with a once in a moment Chrisette Michelle). He is the only one who can soothe me and comfort me. I mean all day on repeat. I just took all my favorites put them on CD and let them play.

* At work there is a song that comes on the radio I am l-o-v-i-n-g. Downloaded it. Don't listen to it yet at home . . because of the Maxwell need.
Uprising by Muse . . .this song rocks!


* Speaking of work. I am on the 5 month plan to leave. September is the month. If I don't get fired first. I know that is bad to say. I can't afford to but my attitude of no caring may make it sooner.
As much as I need a job the stress is not worth it. Hopefully, everything in the plans will fall in place.
Hell, I'll work at Mickey D's. Sike. No I won't. Let me quit lying.
