What about your friends . . .

How do you feel when a friendship ends? Have you ever had to cut someone off? What about that feeling when you're right about to cut someone off? You know . . . that mixture of excitement because you are about to rid yourself of dead weight and uncertainty about whether you're doing the right thing. Well, I'm about at that point right nah!!!!

I get so sick of so-called friends who only call when they want to discuss their problems but who NEVER answer their phones when you're in the middle of that crisis (you know . . . like when you're contemplating doing the "drive by" to see if Dude's home at 3am --not that I've done this) and who don't even return phone calls. But let you decide not to take the 4 a.m. phone call commiserating about the no-good (fill in the moniker) or not return calls promptly and all Hiz-ell breaks loose.

Well, like my Uncle used to say to me and my brother when we would creep past his bedroom with sheets on our heads like ghosts trying to get him to come "get" us . . . "I got a trick fo yo azz". I'm sooo over the one-sided BS that comes with "so-called" friendships. If you're not willing to give me the same respect and consideration that you'd like I have absolutely NO QUALMS about cutting you OFF!!!! I'm too grown for this ish and I have people in my life who value my friendship. Here's to cleaning out my closet for the Spring and beyond . . .




On another note . . . how about exes who had manymanymanymany chances to "Act Right" and when you finally cut their azzes off wanna do "pop ups", phone calls and texts at all hours professing their "love" for you. *eyeroll* Please . . . I have no sympathy for you.

Doing the D@#N Thang!!!!

Right about now I'm in a point in my life where I just feel like doing whatever the Hell I want. I've achieved a major goal that while I am immensely grateful for it I feel . . . unfulfilled. I mean, it's as if I was expecting it to feel like MORE. Anywho, I've decided to work on some other things that I've wanted to do for the longest, but for whatever reason have not done them.

#1 GET BODY T-I-G-H-T

Don't get me wrong, ya gurl IS smokin' in general, let alone to be a mother of TWO and of a "certain age". I just feel that I'm not at my BEST and it's up to me to make it happen.

As I am a female who is . . . amply blessed in the gluteal region, I know that I will have to focus on lowering my overall bodyfat and tightening that area to see some results.

What I am doing:

I am in Week 2 of the "Couch to 5k" plan (which can be found at: http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml )

I must say I am quite proud of myself thus far. I just got back from my workout and it's 11:33 p.m.!!!! I am determined to stick with this.

I am eating more fiber and lean protein in the form of beans and fish and minimizing my "white" foods (sugar, rice, flour). Water, Water, Water!!!!


I'm going to Jamaica with my best Girlfriend in a little less than nine weeks and I'd like to get my stank stride on. But seriously, this is a lifestyle change.

Please stay tuned for more entries on "Me doing Me".

I just learned how to embed videos and for now I MUST do it with every post.

This is for all the Queens out there who need to put a little "stank" in their stride:
