So my brother texted me back with an update.....and things have worked out for the best. I'm so happy I can't stop crying......
I'm still praying though.....I need the bad news hubby shared to work out in our favor. I'll stay in prayer for that!
There's is truth in the saying that you have to stay PRAYED up!

Good News needed
Hubby shared some bad news last night. I asked some questions. He doesn't have a plan. I had a restless sleep last night. And I got up this morning and one of my brothers texts me with more bad news. So I'm praying for strength, guidance and courage right now.

That damn Marshall’s
I attempted to meet my brothers girlfriend last night o pass on his mail. Well the girlfriend was just about on her side of town, so we agreed to meet today. And instead of me going back in the house I headed to the beauty supply store. For what you might ask, especially since I have several bottles of shampoo and conditioner in the house already. Well I wanted to see if I could find this hot sauce for my hair. Yeah hot sauce, it’s a heat protectant for flat ironing your hair. At any rate I kinda sorta bypassed the beauty store because Marshall’s sign was shining so brightly. So I was lured in.
I wont say how long I was in the store, and you should be able to gage from that. At any rate, the shoe section was cool, nothing in my size. But I found the cutest blue Keds for my niece, and they were only $8.
I moved on the handbag section, and I saw a few bags…….but um, the colors were a little too not my speed; so I passed.
Next up was the kitchen section, not looking for anything in particular, especially since I’m on a spending hiatus (supposedly). Nothing jump out there either. I didn’t even find any cute picture frames, URGH!
So as they began making the announcements that the layaway department would be closing in 5 minutes and the store in 30 minutes (yeah I was in there that long, I did say I went to the shoe section and the handbag section didn’t I), I made my way to the front to pay for my nieces’ shoes.
But oh see, I saw these cute jeans…..and they had my size. Ok, not bad….shoes for niecey and jeans for me, total under $30. Cool, let me get up out of there right, naw the suits were calling me…..and of course I found a few in my size. So I got a new blue suit…….I’m so bad.
I get home and review my purchase and feeling guilty. And what do I discover, the shoes are the wrong size, the box says one size and the actual shoes are another size…….next I try on the jeans and well…..the button feels flimsy, almost as if it’s about to pop off and the jeans are too long.
So back they go……and now I’m sitting here debating on taking the suit back.
Decisions, decisions, decisions!

that's all you called me for?
My grandmother just called me on my cell while I'm at work:
Me: Hello
Grandmother: Good Morning, I know you are at work. But How do you spell your cousins name?
Me: (spelling the name)
Grandmother: (repeating the spelling)
Me: yeah
Grandmother: Ok, talk to you later
Really????.......must be nice to be able to pick up the phone and call people with small questions.
Doesn't she know I read blogs in the morning!!!
Ok, now I'm off to go grab a multi grain bagel from Cosi. I sure hope they are pleasant this time.
Happy Thursday!
Peace, Blessings and Laughs

You Are a Red Light |
 You take life at a slow pace. Life is long, so what's the rush? You are very selective. You don't make a decision until you're sure it's the right one. You have amassed some wisdom in your life, and you put it to good use. You don't act rashly. You are fair and impartial. People can count on you to do the right thing, even if you take some time to figure out what that is. |
Peace, Blessings and Laughs

You Are Apple Juice |
 You're very likable and quite popular. It's hard not to find something to love about you. You are playful and fun. You try to bring levity to situations. While you are entertaining, you're not very hyper or mischievous. You are laid back, low key, and even a bit sensitive. |
Peace, Blessings and Laughs

Crazy E Cheese - Weekend recap
Friday after work I hit the target to look for a gift for my niece. I wanted to purchase a toy, but since I’ve always been the gift giver that prefers clothes over toys I was at a loss. I headed over to the children’s book in hopes of finding something worthwhile and I was fortunate enough to find a little sesame street collection of books.
I was then off to find a little something for my older niece for Luv-Luv day……I don’t like the sound of Valentine’s Day so I refer to the day as Luv-Luv day……..at any rate I stumbled on 75% off clearance items……..I got gift bags and an assortment of cute candies for my niece. And I was out of there in time to make it home for The Game. But it was a repeat, I was disturbed because the advertisement listed a new episode. At any rate I had a paper due Sunday, so I started working on that.
Saturday morning I was up too early thanks in part to a call from my mother reminding me I needed to pick up my niece for the party. My niece mother was to drop her off, but her car started acting up on the highway. So someone needed to pick my niece up from the side of the highway, my mother rushes to the aid and brings my niece to me, my hair was freshly washed and on rollers so I couldn’t leave the house.
Niecey and I had about an hour to kill before the party. I showered and attempted to dry my hair more, but to no avail I had to go the day with a ponytail and bushy ends……not a good look.
We finally arrive at Crazy E Cheese and greeted with a very long line. Good thing we were attending a party. The place was a mad house, and I’ve vowed to never ever attend another party there. My niece didn’t want to leave, no surprise there. And I had a massive headache and was highly irritated by the time I got in the car.
From there I had to run back home to pick up a few items needed for the party at a girlfriends house. Then I needed to drop my niece off, hit the liquor store, and meet another girlfriend who was attending the party as well. My night ended around 11:30 when I finally made it home and Hubby walked in with a crabcake from Jasper’s, YUMMY!
Sunday I awoke to the worst headache, as if I’d been drinking. I still had a paper to turn in so the rest of the day was spent getting my paper ready. I finally submitted it at 11:47 after a few glitches…….
Woe’s me, cause now I’m at work and eagerly anticipating my supervisor’s early departure.
Hope you had a great weekend and Happy Monday to ya!
