I’ve had a bite to eat, flat ironed and pin curled my hair. So my day is moving along. I can’t believe it’s just about 3, I’m gonna try to sneak in a nap before the baby shower.
Yeah, I'm abit bored that I'm posting my actions as if I'm writing a manual.

Solicitation
Ok, so I’m minding my own business running my errands. Well I pull into the parking lot of the grocery store and before I can even put the car in park, this little girl is at my window trying to get me to purchase some items. Unfortunate for her I was on the phone so I didn’t bother to even respond.
And then I get to the entrance to the store, and this young guy approaches me and asks for my help. My immediate response is, “Sorry I don’t have anything on me.” He’s like, “oh now I don’t need any money. I live in _______ and I left my ID at home, I was wondering if you could purchase a 30 pack of beer and I’d give you three dollars.” I shook my head and walked away. To which he responded, “you could have at least said no.” I’m thinking to myself, self (yeah I go thru this sometimes, it helps me to rationalize things), I say “self, do I really look like I need three dollars? Do I look like I’d jump at the chance to get three dollars from anyone?”
I then go on to think, he must really don’t have it all, why would an adult jeopardize their livelihood by walking into a store and purchasing him alcohol.
Note to self…..I really need to step up my appearance game if people on the street are offering to pay ME to run an errand for them.
Peace out, and enjoy the rest of the evening, I'm off to the movies to see the Incredible Hulk.

A Lazy Saturday
So here I am on a Saturday afternoon with not much to do. Maybe I should take that back. There are several things I could do:
Ø Homework – due tomorrow night by 11:45 pm
Ø Hair – I’m supposed to be going to a baby shower, and can’t readily go with my hair looking like this
Ø Washing clothes
Ø Eating
Ø Pedicure
Ø Finding something to wear for tonight – going to the club with hubby and his friends……
Ø Hair – oh I mentioned this already, but a second mention is needed since I REALLY need to do something to my hair.
I was up early this morning, thanks in part to my mother. I mentioned to her that I was going try to hit the track for some walking this morning. And she was my wake up call, a little earlier than I’d like. So I went to the track walked 4 laps, went to the library to return books and now I’m back home trying to figure out what to do……..
Ok, so I have some food cooking, plugged in the flat iron and put a load of clothes in the washer. My day is officially jumpstarted.

Second post
Ok, I'm about to get up out of here......I have an errand to run. Gotta go find another babyshower gift for my cousin. I sure hope she appreciates my gifts, nothing like running around looking for just the right items to give, only to have it not appreciated by the person that receives it.
At any rate, I wanted to leave with a little spiritual inspiration:
Jesus said, "The seed on a good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retainit, and by perservering produce a crop." Luke 8:15
Peace out and have a blessed evening.

The Beginning......
ok, so I've done....finally started a blog that is. After reading several blogs for a few months now, I flirted with the idea of starting one myself.
So let me get the akward introduction out of the way. As my profile reads, my preference is to remain anonymous, at least for the time being. It's much easier to talk/write/type when you aren't afraid of who'll read. At any rate, so I'm married, comignup on three years now, with no kids. I am also pursuing my undergraduate degree, I take online classes. It's been a long journey and hopefully I'll be done by this time next year.
Let's see what else need I mention........oh why blog? Well, again after reading several blogs, I began to notice how some bloggers use their blogs to vent, and I aint made at them. So that's basically my reasoning. I do have a journal, and find it abit easier to type my rants, versus write them. But I'll continue to write in my journal as some things I don't want to mention here.
What else, the blog name......now that was hard. I had a very difficult time trying to come up with a name for this blog. I needed something that would be thought provoking, but simplistic. So the title evolved from other titles that included serenity, journey, happiness. But then I got emotional, and then it hit me. Cry and then Live.
So, BLOG WORLD, here I am.......
What I hope to accomplish by blogging? Well I hope to use this as a outlet for my emotions and things that happen in my life. Along the way, I hope I can pass on some wisdom, humor and advice.
