What I’m Thankful For

I hate to sound like a follower, but I have read a lot of blogs about what bloggers are thankful for. So I decided why know do one too.

It’s in no specific order… but here it goes.

1.) I’m thankful for God/Jesus for without Him I am nothing and would have nothing.

2.) I’m thankful for my daughter for she’s is my reason for everything I do. She gave me a reason to continue.

3.) I’m thankful for my mother, for showing me that every mom isn’t perfect…we’re allowed to make mistakes.

4.) I’m thankful for my family and the lesson and challenges I learn and go through with them.

5.) I’m thankful for my health. As well as my daughter’s health.

6.) I’m thankful for my job, for allowing me to provide for my household. My co-worker and bosses, for being understanding and their wise advice.

7.) I’m thankful for my best friends and friends for every moment we share and things I learn from them.

8.) I’m thankful for my blog reader and those who truly inspire me. Also, to those who let me know the way I think is cool and I’m not alone. LOL

9.) I’m thankful to my daughter yet again for teaching me how to be a better parent.

10.) I’m thankful for all my bad relationships, heartaches and drama they have truly made me a stronger person.

11.) I’m thankful for my cat Princess…without I’d have mice in my house. LOL. Lord knows I’m terrified of them.

If I left you out sorry!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING ALL!! SAVE ME A PLATE!!!

Print and give to each guest that enters your home.

10 RULES FOR THANKSGIVING DINNER AT MY HOUSE

1.. Don’t get in line asking questions about the food. ‘Who made the potato salad? Is it egg in there? Are the greens fresh? Is the meat in the greens turkey or pork? Who made the macaroni and cheese? What kind of pie is that; who made it? Ask one more question and I will punch you in your mouth, knocking out all your fronts so you won’t be able to eat anything.

2.. If you can’t walk, or are missing any limbs, sit your ass down until someone makes your plate for you. Dinner time is not the time for you to be independent. Nibble on them damn peanuts and walnuts to hold you over until someone makes you a plate.

3.. If you have kids under the age of twelve, I will escort their little asses down to the basement and bring their food down to them. They are not going to tear up my damn house this year. Tell them that they are not allowed upstairs until it’s time for Uncle Butchie to start telling family stories about their mommas and papas. If they come upstairs for any reason except that they are bleeding to death, I will break a foot off in their asses.

4.. There is going to be one prayer for Thanksgiving dinner! JUST ONE!
We do not care that you are thankful that your thirteen year old daughter gave birth to a healthy baby or your nephew just got out of jail. Save the talk for someone that gives a damn. The time limit for the prayer is one minute. If you are still talking after that one minute is up, you will feel something hard come across your lips and they will be swollen for approximately 20 minutes.

5.. Finish everything on your plate before you go for seconds! If you don’t, you will be cursed out and asked to stay your greedy ass home next year.

6.. BRING YOUR OWN TUPPERWARE!! Don’t let me catch you fixing yourself a plate in my good tupperware knowing damn well that I will never see it again! Furthermore, if you didn’t bring anything over, don’t let me catch you making a plate period or it will be a misunderstanding.

7.. What you came with is what you should leave with! Do not leave my house with anything that doesn’t belong to you. EVERYBODY WILL BE SUBJECTED TO A BODY SEARCH COMING AND GOING OUT OF MY DOMAIN!!!

8.. Do not leave your kids so you can go hopping from house to house.
This is not a DAYCARE CENTER . There will be a kid parent roll call every ten minutes. Any parent that is not present at the time of roll call, your child will be put outside until you come and get him or her.
After 24 hours, I will call CPS on your ignorant ass!!

9.. BOOK YOUR HOTEL ROOM BEFORE YOU COME INTO TOWN!! There will be no sleeping over at my house! You are to come and eat your dinner then take your ass home or to your hotel room. EVERYBODY GETS KICKED OUT AT 11:00 pm. You will get a 15 minute warning bell ring.

10.. Last but not least; ONE PLATE PER PERSON!! This is not a soup kitchen. I am not trying to feed your family until Christmas dinner. You will be supervised when you fix your plate. Anything over the appropiate amount will be charged to you before you leave. There will be a cash register at the door. Thanks to Cousin Alfred and his greedy ass family, we now have a credit card machine. So Visa and Mastercard are now being accepted.

Remember: You are too blessed, to be stressed!

Relationship Recap

My BOO:

He already knows how I feel and I know he cares about me and its shows in his actions when he’s around me, but I don’t know if it’s going to go any further. I don’t want to have the chat with him, because I fear the outcome. Good or Bad, if that makes any sense.

My boo, I just like everything about him. Except for the fact that his is not one of those guys who expresses his feelings. You can see it in his actions, but you know us girls like to hear it.

I know I’m ready to be done with the dating thing. I want that someone who I want to be around always. To share those laughs about nothing with and just lay in bed enjoying each others company. And all the other things people do who are dating exclusively do.

I guess after the talk I’ll let the chips fall where they may.

Throwback Season:

So over the last week a lot of my throwbacks have been calling. But there’s only one worth mentioning because the other are lames.

He is from the great city of NYC; we met a couple of years ago. He was visiting Philly with some friends and they ended up going to a club I was at that night. We locked eyes and we did the usual, exchanged numbers and flirted. He the first cute light skinned Haitian I’ve seen, but then again I haven’t been around many Haitian men. I told him that, but he didn’t get offended (I don’t mean to offend anyone with this comment.). I knew he wasn’t from Philly or Jersey, because he had a different type of swagga then Philly & Jersey Dudes.

Anyways, he got in contact with me and we’ve been chatting ever since. We exchanged pictures to refresh each others memory. But we didn’t need to because we both remembered each other to a T. We talked about hanging out and getting to know each other better, than beyond the club.

I usually never back track, be this was a case of losing contact and the switching of phones company and such. So, with that being said I will see things out.

What’s a girl to do? Any comments or male point of views?
