Why you might need to put money on my books…

Posted on by

Recently I posted about the things I didn’t think of when I had a baby girl.  There was one thing I forgot to put on that list:

That I might need bail money!!!

I don’t know what is going on lately, but this little girl turnt tween is “on one” (as my hubby would say).  She has become this argumentative, huffing and puffing, then turn to crying person I feel like I have never met.

Earlier this week, we had a bout in the morning where I got frustrated because I have only been telling her the same things over and over every. single. day. for forever…they are pretty basic:  Read more...

  • Go brush your teeth and get yourself cleaned up before you come talking – even if it’s to say “good morning”
  • On school days, get yourself cleaned up and dressed, straighten your space (your room, that only you mess up) gather your things and then head down to have breakfast.

Friday Letter’s: I am over it all…

Posted on by

Happy Friday folks!

Dear Friday,

I am so happy to see you.  I have been back to work a full month and I am over it! I know that a little sunshine will help, but it has not shown up yet and I am struggling…speak of….

Dear March,

I am glad you finally left if all you were gonna do is continue on with the same ol same ol that we experienced for the last few months before you.  I am welcoming April with open arms and high hopes of sunshine and the ability to take my little guy on a walk in his stroller.  I don’t want much.

Dear Friday,

What a joy to see you.  For no other reason than I wont have to go to work for two whole days.  Its not like those two days will allow me the opportunity to catch up on rest or get anything id like to get done, but the time off from work is all that I could ask for.

Dear Universe,

What have I done to you?  I’d like to think I am a pretty good occupant of space.  But the circumstances as of late lead me to feel like there’s something I have done that I have inadvertatly scratched off my list of memories.  Whatever it is/was, I sincerely apologize.  Would you forgive me and give me a break??

Dear Post pregnancy body,

You are free to leave here now.  I know I haven’t put in as much work as I should to get my dear friend, pre pregnancy body to come back, but you are no longer welcome.  I’m sorry that I sent you the wrong message that you were welcome to stay while I was nursing, changing stinky diapers, dealing with sleep deprivation and still trying to my regular awesome self.

Things are getting ready to get back to a new state of normal around these parts and you are not welcome to be a part of that endeavor.

I do, however, want to thank you for not being as bad as you could have been.  I mean with all the snacking and cravings I had while carrying the little bambino, you sure could have done me way worse.  I appreciate you for that.  Read more...

The devalued state of marriage

Posted on by

What’s the point of getting married? No really.  It seems that currently in the state of our culture, marriage has been devalued.  Our society has shifted from a God fearing, held to a higher being than our own selves kind of lifestyle to a grab some Jesus in the drive through and make sure that no one’s feelings are hurt or feel left out kind of life, those principles that made people more accountable and upstanding are falling by the way side.

I reflect on this often, but as I was reading an article titled, “Not Married, Not Single”, in my November 2012 issue (yea I am a little behind) of Essence magazine, I felt myself cringe.  Read more...
