Thought You Might Like to Know

I haven’t done one of these random posts about me in awhile. I’m in a random mood..lucky for you.

I’m an insomniac. I don’t sleep. I watch videos, tweet and blog at all hours of the night.

I bite my nails. Really a part of the reason why they must be painted. The taste of nail polish chips. Naw, I’m good.

I’m a major slacker when it comes to housework. As my Twitter bio states…I’m a sad excuse for a housewife *shrugs*

I wish I had a big booty..but I don’t.

My husband is the best ever. Sometimes I feel like I don’t show him how appreciative I really am of him and all he does for our family. Will rectify that in the new year.

I want to be a mogul. Something like a Kimoro but you can leave the bling and bring Djimon…I’m kidding, about the bling. I digress.

I love hood music. This is not new.

When I’m home alone, I play dress up and put on makeup. This doesn’t happen often.

I am thinking about donating my hair to Locks of Love. hmmmmm…..

I get scared when things go well in my life. I always think the bad times are coming and often wonder what they will bring with them..real talk. Gotta keep that umbrella handy.

I eat sugar on my grits and rice

My mind is always going a million miles a minute. If I don’t write things down I forget them…I never write things down. You do the math. If I told you I was going to do something and I didn’t. Please remind me. Then hand me a Post It…I didn’t say it had to be my handwriting.

I’m going to start back running. Half marathon in March. I think I have time to get ready.

I’m addicted to that show Storage Wars. I think I am going to buy a locker this year. Once I convince the Mr. I only have $200 on it though.

I’m a Beyonce stan.

I walk in circles in the store. So?

I daydream..a whole lot. Like, people may have to say Hello…is anyone home. Like I be somewhere else. Welp. Knock on the door if you need my attention.

If I need to spend a large amount in the store. I’ll make two trips. Two $40 bills is > than one $80 one. No?

That’s enough random foolishness. Share something random about yourself so we all can feel a little bit normal.

In the New Year {Me Edition}

With the year quickly closing in on us, I think it is only natural to reflect on what was and make plans on what’s to come. Like everyone else I have been pondering these things amongst the hustle and bustle of preparing for the holidays, building my brand and taking care of my family.

I am afraid to say that I think one of the major changes that I am going to be making will not settle well with others. Oh well. See, I’m the type of person that ignores other people’s madness. If I am bothered by things or comments they make I tend to ignore them, out of the sheer fact that I don’t care and I accept people as they are. Unfortunately I am seeing people rattling off their feelings and the like and their tendency to ignore how I am and quite frankly I’m tired of it. In the new year no more.

If I have a problem with it, it’s getting put out there. Yes, you and your madness will be called out. My feelings will be heard. Everyone else is getting it off their chest…why not me? Don’t answer that!

Organization is a must. I have been following alot of blogs and diligiently working at designing a system that will work for me and keep me AND my car ~~somewhat~~ organized.

Gone are the days of starting and not finishing. The fear of failure has always crippled me, but not in 2012. I would really rather fail trying than to fail sitting around pondering the what ifs. Ya feel me?

Taking care of me will be a priority. A least a facial, or massage once a month. Call me a Diva if you must.

I will regain my style. I have turned a bit conservative. Instead of fitting into the standard of what a mom “should” look like I am up to setting a new standard. Watch out now

That pretty much sums up some of the major changes I will be making concerning myself in the new year.

This is my new motto..You can steal it if you want to. I stole it from Pinterest!!!!! Consider me liberated…Watch out 2012

Where does your liberation start in the new year? Do share!

To Bare or Not To Bare

I’ll cut to the chase. I’m a nudist. I don’t like clothes or shoes. Now that I put that out there.

My son is now six and my husband thinks its high time I put some clothes on around the house. Disclaimer: I don’t do it when others are around. Just thought I would put that out there.

I do agree that I need to cover up but I don’t think there is anything wrong with the human body. Yet I would freak out if Lil Mama saw the Mr. bucked naked * that was in my Bernie Mac voice* Not familiar? here you go. FYI there is cursing and profanity in this clip. You have been warned! You can stop it after 0:16 or watch the whole thing for some flash back giggles. I digress.

My mom and aunts walked nude around me so its second nature but I do have to remember that I have a son and it just might not be the best thing. I have started to cover up, but when he streaked across the house while my niece was here I think I may be a day late with this epiphany. I’m just curious. What’s your take on nudity around your child(ren)?

The Takeover

I know I was supposed to post pics from my trip today but for some reason my computer is acting funny and I am not in the mood to fight with it. Tomorrow, or some day after I will post them.

I was stretching for something to write about. This blog challenge is getting just that…challenging. Then I thought about something that perturbed me and thought I would bring it to you my extended family.

So look. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I run with a few women early in the morning as in 5a. Initially there was only three of us. We had our route, we opened the group for others to join us. Weeeelllllll, this lady joined the group and practically took over. We are a part of a bigger organization called Black Girls Run and she just took over posting about others joining the run, she changed the route, time and everything. No credit given to the lady who was the originator of the route.

Now. I am thinking protocol would say consult with the person who initially started the run to see if they were willing to hand over the reigns, if not work with them to see if they need your assistance. Otherwise, go somewhere else and start your own run…at least that’s my opinion.

Needless to say I haven’t ran with the group since this coup took over. I am really funny about stuff like that. I just think its a respect and common courtesy issue. I don’t know. These are some of the reasons why I don’t get involved in church activities and things of the like. Some people have that take over spirit and it just doesn’t settle well with me. God is still working on me so I’ve decided to fall back and be quiet.

Bloggies…am I being silly. Is it just that this lady is on a hundred thousand trillion while I’m chilling on the beach with a Corona that I don’t get the thirst she has in taking over this run. What do you think? I said I am going to run in the morning, but I’m just not sure I can properly edit my thoughts at that hour of the morning if something out of the way is said. I might be stretching..seriously. Am I? Don’t lie.
