The big day is quickly approaching, in 81 days I’ll be married. That seems kind of funny…I’ll be married in 81 days. When I tell you that I would have never thunk it, I’m serious. First of all, growing up I always said that I would never marry. I’m not really sure why I felt that way, particularly because I grew up in a home with both my parents. My parents did and still continue to have a great marriage…so I don’t know where I got it in my head that I would not marry. But alas those where the thoughts of a child. However, as I got older, I continued to think that I would not get married; only this time it had more to do with the quality of men that I met. This is not to say that I have only dated losers, because that is not true. I’ve dated some interesting folks, they’ve just not been right for me.
Thankfully in 81 days I’ll be wed to the man that God had intended for me all along.
Couldn’t Do It

I broke down and got my hair relaxed today. I don’t know what I was thinking. The natural hair thing is more than a notion. Going to the gym was becoming a pain. The after swell was too much. I couldn’t even get a comb through my hair…kinky, kinky, kinky!
Not only did I get a relaxer, I went to a new person. Can you believe it? You know black folks don’t do a lot of chair hopping. She even cut my hair. I haven’t let anyone cut my hair except Shu in years. I’m totally pleased with Korrey and to top it all off, she’s located in Middleburg Heights (15 minutes away) and not all the way on the east side. It’s hard to find a black stylist in the burbs. I think I’ll keep her.
Joy

People mean well, but some times their comments sting and are very hurtful.
What do you do when someone’s comments steal your joy?
This day is done

I’m so tried and ready to go home for the day. I was so excited about the day when I left for work. I had all these grand ideas of what I was going to accomplish today. I should have known better. Whenever I have big plans for work something always, always, always happens to throw me off course. No sooner than I had booted up my computer I was already faced with the fire for the day. I think that I should get hazard pay since I’m always putting out fires. And these are not just any ole fires; these are fires on which folks have added gasoline to make the flames larger. Come on people…we’re not curing cancer here…it’s not really that important…simmer (no pun intended) down.
Who Said What?
