Just Leaving "Tyler Perry's New Movie"

Well this is my sister and she didn't want me to take her picture.Her sisterlocks are 10 months and she started with a relaxer like me but she still has her ends. I don't encourage her to cut them at all. I don't think she is ready because she has never been natural before but I have on several occasions. I think she should wait until she gets some length that way she will be more comfortable and probably her husband will too. She thought I was crazy to break out my camera after the movie. I always forget to take her picture to show her progress. I think it's the hormones. Oh guess what after leaving the movies her water broke and she is a bit nervous not at full term yet 36 weeks to be exact but I know that things will be fine. I decided to blog as I wait anxiously by the phone to find out if it is indeed amniotic fluid........

I guess I will talk about the movie. Dang wasn't Sanaa stank in that movie. What an itch. She was very crude to her husband and very snobbish. The theme made me think about myself (not the crude and snobby parts)and some of the poor decisions I have made in life and how your parents really influence you. Do you believe in generational or family curses? She was trying so hard not to be what she thought her mom was and ended up in a similar situation. Of course there is a story there with me but I won't share it on the Internet. Anyway in the movie the question was posed Are you living your life or are you merely existing. I hate to admit it but I am merely existing. I am content with the status quo because who knows whats out there. Merely existing. I did do something interesting on Friday night I went to a Lebanese restaurant with two coworkers. That was different. They invited me to water rafting the next day but as usual I have an excuse not to go. I do have limitations with my rheumatoid arthritis. I am Merely existing and wasting each day that God has blessed me with. I must apologize to my father in heaven for not doing anything great. Do you ever wonder what's your purpose?

.....Still not a word from my sister....... I gotta go..... Long day tomorrow.

Next week I will see Lake view Terrace with Sam Jackson.

Things have been busy.

I don't have much time to blog lately. I have been busy busy since school has started and I must admit work has been stressful. Anyway I am trying not to sweat the small stuff and trying to ignore the big stuff. I also joined by buddy Nihuru's weight loss challenge group. I don't know how to find the time. I have been getting home late and then when I am home I am working and I have to help with homework, make a meal etc.... Just swamped. My hair is just doing what it do! It looks the same to me. I will post again after I retighten. I think my sister made me an appointment in Oct. However I will retighten a few before then.

You know what I hate my computer room/guest room/junk room. I really need to do something about it. It has lots of potential but right now it's so blah! Just a space to log onto the Internet and work and close the door. I want to convert it into an office but I am afraid when I have relatives over they won't have anywhere to sleep. Maybe I will disguise the computer and get a computer cabinet. It's such an eyesore looking at all those plugs and flashing lights and the two printers. I have thought about changing the door to a french door and buying home office furniture but what about the bed. I wouldn't get a tacky futon maybe a sectional sleeper. Oh well it won't be anytime soon.I should be ashamed to put pictures of such a tacky room online for all the world to see.

Random Shots

My sister says that I can't see my color. She thinks I am colorblind. Ok I can tell I have a color under the light. Well anway the relatives just left to go back to Louisana. Many people are without lights and are discovering damage to their homes. The shelters were filled here. In my sister's neighborhood their were lots of cars with Louisana plates. My mom didn't have any damage to her home but shcool is out until next week. My ex stated that trees fell through the roof of his aunt's home and my sister's entire extended family had to evacuate because they live in Morgan City which was also near the water. Dang as a kid we never left. Never!

"I colored my hair"

Before the color After the color ( the pic in the blue t-shirt is the before shot and other is the after shot)

Well I decided I needed a change so I colored my hair. I used Dark and Lovely "auburn". Personally I can't tell the difference. I notice my scalp is another color. I guess I thought it would be more dramatic. I was worried that the color would straighten my hair. I read that on someones blog. I am happy to say it didn't but I needed to retighten my hair anyway. I am almost finished but I really hate it. My neck hurts. I am trying to do it all in 2 days. As far as styling goes I set my hair on sponge rollers and wear that look for a day then free style the next and the same routine all over again so I freestyle every other day. I don't wear a head band either. I like the messy layered look! In this picture I didn't do anything to my hair. I just let it air dry because I am still retightening.
