It's our Anniversary...

It's our anniversary...To Us, Thank you for loving me unconditionally and not allowing anyone to put a title/tag/or sterotype on "us". You are my friend and beyond...
 

I'm still floored that you've put up with me this long LMAO!

 

 

CanCan's Little Helper

My grandson son spent the weekend with me and boy is he a ball of energy.  He wanted to play when all I wanted to do was lounge around and do nothing.  His uncle Jeffery took him to the barbershop, his aunt Nina played hide and seek and football with him, and his CanCan read him stories made his favorite breakfast and gave him a bubble bath.  Then the next day we had to wake up and do it all over again LOL!  I put that little ball of energy to WORK!
He was more than happy to handle the big rake

As far as I'm concerned he has already earned his first car!
And when it was all said and done...
I was making his snack and about to clean him up, he went in aunt Nina's room while she was suppose to be cleaning it, climbed up in her bed and passed out before she could put the fresh sheets on it LOL!  Honey he slept for about two hours and woke up ready to go some more!

He's coming back over Wednesday when I get off from work and help me mix up all the Thanksgiving yumminess we have planned!

Big Chop 11/23/09

I did it!!!!!!!!! Yeah I did it!  I chopped all that processed, tangled, hard to manage hair right off my head at 1:00am this merning!

One side done more to go!

The last Chunk of hair...

After the morning after...

On my way to work this morning...Ya'll like my hair bling?

A full view of the tiny fro!

Yep that's me, I love it!  I cried as I chopped the last chunk of processed hair off, that's what you see above the last bit!  Then I looked at myself, laughed out of control, ya'll I was so excited I texted Cliff knowing full well he was asleep that time of morning...or maybe not, but his reply this morning still has me smiling.  It's wonderful having friends like him.

People are reacting differently...

My oldest sister cussed me out on FB hilarious!  She even threatened to buy me two bags of hair and come up here and do my hair!  I called her a troll doll and kept it moving LMAO!

My baby girl was shocked! She had the biggest smile on her face, she says it's different but she loves it.

My baby boy is so indifferent, he thinks his momma is beautiful with or without hair.

My oldest son asked me if I was going through menopause or a mid life crisis!  MID LIFE...Dammit I'm not at the half way point yet LOL!  After he looked at it he touched it called me Angie Stone and gave me a kiss saying that "It really looks good momma"

My co-workers LOVE IT! My boss even asked me if I had gotten new glasses after he touched my hair...I told him no since the hair is gone you can see my face LOL!

My girl Tia gave me some natural hair care tips...Chamomile extract is the key...

I texted a picture of my new do to my ex-husband *he was a sucker for long hair* he just responded that it looks nice, not what I was expecting but ok! LOL

A person, who shall remain nameless had no reaction, well the lack of response let me know that they didn't care for it, but hey FUGG EM, I gotta Be ME!

Big Cliff LOVES IT he has supported me since I began this journey...

And me...I LOVE MY HAIR IT'S SO FLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The video/song below is the vibe I'm on, I saw it over on Glamazini's blog and decided to post it  here!

The Second Time Around...

 
I think we did a much better job the second time around, there was NO CONSUMPTION of alcohol and we did ok!  Remember the first mess we made? 
I still laugh at the thought of this cake...Well here is what we did today!
We both have the art of baking cakes down to a science its the decorating part that kills me...We are by no means Martha S. but darn if we're not getting better, we should have worked with the smoothing of the buttercream icing more but hey!!!!!!!!!!!A sista was watching Saints football, did yall see that game!?  we 9-0 BabyYYYYYYYYYYYYY Geaux Saints!

15 and Fabulous!!!!!!!!

It was this time 15 years ago I went into labor, 8:25 AM.  I remember because we had just dropped my oldest son off to school and my husband was preparing breakfast for me our baby son.  She arrived at 1:12 PM in enough time for my husband to leave the hospital and go pick our oldest son up from kindergarten.  Oh the Memories! 

I would like to wish my darling baby girl a very happy and blessed birthday!  I love you Tunka!
