food for thought

No one falls in love by choice
ITS BY CHANCE
No one stays in love by chance
ITS BY WORK
And no one falls out of love by chance
ITS BY CHOICE

Work, Work, Work

So i'm at my second job....."praying for 11 pm to hurry." This is my 3rd 15 hr work day and i have one left. Geez.........

My BFF

My sister who once got on my everlasting nerves, being as though we are 8 years apart. Thanx Mom & Dad. Anywho, with such an age difference we didn't have much in common. She rattled on any & every and did i say every thing i did wrong. Well now that she's older and maturer i find myself hanging with her alot. Some friendships are only meant for certain periods of your life. A sister will be there til the end.

Princess Sasha

Meet Sasha, my baby. I couldnt get her trained for nothing, didn't have much time to do it so i got fed up one day & took her to the humane society. Did it while i was angry......bad mistake. She was the best dog ever i just didn't have the patience.I cried for 4 days. I miss her sooooooooo much, but she deserved a better home.......

Daddy's Girl

Yes that's correct. I'm a daddy's little girl. My father sufferred a stroke in December 09. Approximately 3 wks after celebrating his 60th suprise Bday. I thought my world was over. But he overcame it and is doing great. Still alot of bumps in the road ahead. He had to learn how to walk all over again. He couldn't move his right side but with the power of prayer he's moving it again!!!! My mom, who also sufferred a stroke back in '98. Also had to learn to walk and talk again. Their both great. (HOW IRONIC FOR BOTH PARENTS TO SUFFER FROM A STROKE) Thanks for everyones prayers and support during this very hard time in our lives~

Ballet

I have a niece whom i love dearly. Little Ms.Trin or Jenn Jr.(whatever u want to call her).....she had her first dance recital on Saturday. Brought tears to my eyes. She just grew up overnite. Then i look in front of me & my brother (her daddy) was wiping his eyes and blowing his nose. LOL. That was a site. ( he swears he had something in his eye, yeah a tear) lol

California

So, last month i went to LA with some of my family. The trip was so much fun. We stayed at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel downtown LA. The hotel view was amazing. There's so much to do out there. We shopped, ate, took a private limo tour around the city, went to see Dream Girls Broadway production, went to the Lakers Game @ the Staples Center and visited long lost family there ( that I didn't even know existed). We visited the Hollywood Walk of Fame, saw 2 Michael Jacksons......"AND YALL THOUGHT THE KING WAS DEAD"....LOL........so if you ever think of visiting make sure to take lots of cash and go to the shopping district downtown LA. AMAZING!!!! I wanted to lose my ever loving mind there, but i started thinking about car note, insurance, bills....bills......bills and i stuck to 3 pair of jeans, a shirt and a purse all for under $100...GOOD?, yeah i know. LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!
