Whoa – I couldn’t help it! We played a game over Thanksgiving. The question was asked, “What is the most important thing in a relationship?” I have pondered this question over time since Thanksgiving which was several weeks ago – and I stick with my answer: love. I have to love first – before I … Continue reading
Two Weeks Ago
Two weeks ago I put in my two week notice at work. It was kind of impulsive. I had no intention of quitting. But something really terrible happened at work and there was no resolution. So I quit. I quit because at that moment I felt devalued. Those feelings have not changed. And I know … Continue reading
You Ain’t Gotta Jock Jay Z, Jock Fly Ish
…like Thissofly. Now Jay Z is irrelevent in the BB’S generation so they’re not jocking him. During a recent snow day this month, I assigned the BB’s a Black History research paper/project and gave them recommendations of events/people to research. The older one chose Martin Luther King Jr. Normally I’d be opposed to this selection … Continue reading
Thissofly is Taking Care of Ones Own Self
Thissofly is Taking Care of Ones Own Self. I am currently typing this on my sons’ laptop because for xmas, we purchased mini convertible laptop/tablets for the boys in which neither of them use. They both have gaming equipment where they can access their favorite site – YouTube – and both (now) have cell phones. … Continue reading
14 years ago
14 years ago, I changed my number, left my mother, and moved to Illinois to live with a boy. We married a few weeks later on this day, January 26th. It’s been an “Adventure of a lifetime” – Coldplay. As Gwen Stefani in her No Doubt days sang, “A real love survives a rocksteady vibe.” … Continue reading
Getting whose life?
I’ve recently come to the conclusion that all this time I’ve spent trying to get my life, it is something I am incapable of getting. It’s so interesting and refreshing how this fact was simply revealed to me after many years of living (not really that many in comparison, unless you’re like, ten). So simple … Continue reading
Livin in Leggins
Though there’s definitely a few more weeks of heat (it’s been hot and humid out in my parts), I’ve, as of late, been thinking about my winter clothing game. So, since I walk the kiddos to and from school e’reday, I don’t really like/feel comfortable stepping out decked in my trendiest pieces. That’s practically my … Continue reading
Coastin’
Let me tell you all how I’ve been getting my life. This summer has been all about the kiddos. Now that they’ve grown up a lil bit, they can do all this stuff. Summer camp, soccer, football. We’re taking more “family” trips and such. One to Georgia, then we’ll head to Saugatuck just smack dab … Continue reading
On Sale @ Urbanoutfitters.com
Urban Outfitters is that store that used to be my absolute favorite. Then, either they changed, or I changed. Probably the latter. I still find myself browsing their site occasionally but I will not walk into their store ever again. (That’s harsh, and a lie cause I might if I’m feeling nostalgic but I haven’t … Continue reading
I thought it was the new vitamins
I started taking some new vitamins about three weeks ago. I’d mentioned to my mother that I’d been feeling a little fatigued for what seemed to be absolutely no reason. I faithfully ingested a tablespoon of diatomaceous earth every morning since October and initially felt the difference. I think my body had become too familiar … Continue reading
