New Addiction Coming Soon

Tis Nyab is in labor. I'm so excited! She was at the hopsital this morning- she's only 2 cm dialated so they sent her home. I'm expecting baby in the next 8 hours.!!!

By this time tommorrow...Grace will be here!

Found It

Finally got a long lasting lip color that I like. I got $23's worth of stuff at CVS for only $8 b/c of all my coupons. Yippee. I love love love coupons.

Dad's Girl

Talked to my dad this morning after his surgery. Told him I loved him. I'm so thankful the surgery went well.

Lazy Weekend

We basically sat home all weekend. I should be ironing my clothes and preping for my interview tommorrow but I so do not feel like it. Got a load of laundry to do still and the slim in 6 video.
The workout has been sucessful because I can feel my back shaping up a bit. My ass is also starting to shape up a little. Heheh..

Dad's surgery is tommorrow. I called him to tell him I'd pray for him. I love him! I really want to go home but I can't so all I can do is pray. I love you dad!

I've been looking at Preschool for Emmers. Redeemer has preschool but they charge $85 a month for 2 days a week. If I find a good paying job, I'd like her to attend. It will only make my girl smarter. I"m so proud of her. She's as smart as can be. She's maxed out smart. Smarter than any other kid I know.

Hmm...i'm blank so goodnight bloggers! God bless you!

Bethel University

Another interview on Monday. I need all the prayers I can get. It's tooo competitive nowadays. Please let there only be like 3 of us applicants and not 50.

My Love for my Family

My grandpa's been having back issues...apparently the tissues btwn this spinal cord are worn out and that causes the pains. Besides medication, the only cure to this pain is having surgery...however with his diebetic problem, having a surgery usually leads to negative outcomes because of their healing process. I'm so worried. I'm worried outta my mind. To top that my daddy is having surgery on Monday. He has a herna and has been having gal bladder issues...therefore 2 operations are being done at once. Grandma is still in constant pain with her legs...and Steven is having bloody stools. I feel so bad, so hopeless. All I want to do is go home to them so I can love them, care for them, and cook for them. But I can't even do that...all i can do is sit here and cry about it. The pain that I feel is so deep....and so helpless. It's always only my mom. My mom has to take care of everyone...I feel for her and I want to be there to support her. I love my family.....and all I want is happiness and good health for them...for all of us.

"My second life time will be spent with you..."

Restless Leg Syndrome?

Goly- my legs have been bothering me lately throughout the early mornings. Its a tingly feeling that bothers me. It's only 6am and I'm up b/c of it. Darn-it. I guess it gets me up early but i'd rather be sleeping.

Family meetings beyond family meetings

This baptist church mixed with our family does not go. They're weird to the max. Anyway-Sunday's family meeting on Grandpa's funeral was lame. Johnny got upset and almost cried. Everyone was talking over everyone. Nothing really got accomplished. Thus, with all the overwhelming emails today, I then take a deep breath and again think to myself, I will not argue with anyone over this. It's not worth it. I'm going with the flow and whatever goes, goes. Regardless of how we do it, outsiders will always have something to say. Am I right? So we do it the best we can and that's all that matters.

In Chicago

Floral a try

I helped Tina put 2 floral boutiques together and I thought I did a pretty good job for a first timer. I'm pretty proud of myself. Hehehe..I'm bored. I need a new hobby to keep myself busy. Bouts to look into JoAnn and Micheals. Liza!!! I wish you lived near me. We'd be the bomb diggy with all our fricken hobbies.

Grandpa Passed

He's offically gone. Left us at about 9ish this morning. It's his time-He's suffered too long. Along with one's loss brings family drama. I hate it. I've decided that I'm going to stay out of it. No need for drama or to point fingers. There's no need..no reason... at a time like this, I think comfort and support is what's needed.

Puppy Chow

is Yummy...thanks to chee-lee. Austin is weird. he just flashed me...he has a red dragon fan on top of his head while he moves the chicken. weirdo ...and he says, b/c we're family.

Chicago

Here I come! In milwaukee at Tis Nyab and Tony's place. I'm excited for Chicago..hopefully it's not too cold.

My Sassy Girl

Ready for Chicago

So ready to pack and get the hell outta hea!! I took some pictures today and realize how freakin fugly I am. I hate myself. Time for a new me.

FOUND MY RING

OMG...YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHERE IT WAS! For some odd reason, it was inside my quilt blanket. I don't know how it got in there...but damn- I'm sooo fricken happy! I really though I lost 10 g's. My ring is never leaving my finger again and if it is- it's going in a safe spot. Learned my lesson for life!

Grandpa

He was admitted to Woodwinds again. Poor Gramps is really hanging in there, fighting for his life. He can't even talk anymore...can't eat- food is going through a tube only. I honestly don't think he'll be around too long anymore.

Casting Call for Gap Babies

I submitted these 2 photos to Baby Gap for the Casting Call. We'll see if she gets in. If she does, we're due for a trip to San Fran and more!

Bargins @ Baby Gap

Hot steamy shoes for Princess Jasmine (Emmy). She loves the pink ones! Got em for 3-4 bucks each. Love the deals!

Emmy's 1st Bike

Auntie Chee bought Emmy her first bike ever! She loves it!!!! Riding bikes together has been the highlight of her day. My dad taught her how to ride it and she caught on in seconds. Too smart.

Interview

Northwestern called me in for an interview. I'm super duper excited and I hope this is the position I have been waiting for. I am putting this position in God's hands and going from there. I'm at school in the lab..was suppose to be downstairs for the Job Fair but I went down there and there's not much at all. Plus, I'm kind of nervous and don't know what to do or expect for a Job Fair. We'll, I'm off to Roseville. I want a new purse so I'm stopping at Macy's.
