*Just ckecking in*

Hey,

Today was a good day. It really was. My dad had a light stroke today. But he\’s home and doing fine. He can be stubborn at times, and not listen to the doctor, but we are up on him for real!!! He knows it too. His speech was off and he could barely walk. But he can walk and talk well, he is good. So pray for me and my family.

I was going to do my #1 Hollywood person tonight. But I\’m tired from working today * it was busy*. And plus I gotta be right back to work in the morning at 10:00 am. When I got off at 3:30. I\’m going to get my nails done, brows, shopping and all that other gurl stuff. Imma be A TIED Sister this weekend. But its cool. My gurl is getting married. I will have plenty of VIDEO footage, and photos to share.

I\’ll post my #1 person on Monday night! Plus I want this person\’s page to be the bomb!

In the meantime, thatgurltheycallcreedog is OUT!

You can email me @ neshacrese@aol.com

Whew Chile!

Hey,

Today was a good day! Well, it started off * spooky*. I worked from 12-9 and it was off the hook!! LOL With those stimulus checks, the first of the month approaching * on the weekend* pay day, people were spending money like they had it like that. Guess they did. I was tied!! LOL

Of course with a day like this, there will be * Cree stories* to tell. I wanna understand why people don\’t speak up in situations where they need too? I was ringing this lady up, and the way she had her basket, it was blocking the way for the customers behind her. Now the lady I was ringing up didn\’t know that it was someone behind her wanting to pass. So the lady who was waiting to pass, kept, I mean kept, kept, kept looking at ME as if she wanted ME to ask the lady to move for her, when all she had to do was say excuse me. This happens EVERYDAY, I don\’t know what it is about me, that people expect me to move mountains and climb trees. But I ain\’t her!!!

I said to myself, this is gon kill me, but Imma stand right here, ring up this lady, and see how long it takes for gurlfriend * a middle aged white woman* to say * excuse me* to this * OLDER aged white woman *. I\’m standing there scanning her items, and the lady just stands there for at least 3 minutes. I\’m saying to myself…….now when is she gon say excuse me? Why would she want to stand there and wait on ME to finish this transaction, when she could be gone.? The lady doesn\’t even know someone\’s behind her. Everytime the middle aged woman looked at me, I gave her this fake smile* the smile where you squint your eyes real little and twitch your nose to the side, and bring your mouth up to your nose* and turned my head. Her eye contact was BEGGING me to ask this lady to move up. I kept on scanning like we were in the only ones in the building.

See, I have this thing about me where I have to make sure everyone alright, everything in order, people are cool, no body\’s com planing, dishes washed, clothes cleaned, people happy, how many I help you, here\’s a few dollars, here\’s a bed time story, do you need a jacket kinda person. And you know what? I\’m not God! And its about time I let him be him and I let Lacrease be Lacrease. There is no reason for me to feel guilty for not saying * oh excuse her, she wants to get by*. THAT WOMAN HAS A MOUTH OF HER OWN LET HER OPEN UP HER MOUTH AND SAY EXCUSE ME MAAM, MAY I GET PASS HERE?

So then…………

Nooooo the middle aged woman, didn\’t bump the older lady basket sooooo hard, that it rolled like it had 100 wheels.She mumbled something under her breath, looked and me and left the store ON FIRE! The older lady STILL DIDN\’T KNOW IT. ROFLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL. The middle aged lady was maddddddddddddddddddd at me!!! Once she got pass, she looked ova at me, and zoomed outta there!!! People crack me up. Now all that lady had to say was excuse me. That\’s not my job, when I need to get pass, I\’ll say excuse me Ms. Maam. And when I need to pass a man, young or old, Ill say excuse me boo, or sir. People don\’t want to do anything these days. They are so proud. They don\’t speak, people will walk pass you 50 times and not open their mouth!! I don\’t understand that. When someone drop money, be kind and pick it up for them. So what they are reaching, pick it up. If someone needs to get by, let them by before yourself. Say excuse me, thank you, have a nice day. SPEAK LIFE INTO SOMEONES DAY. If I posted how many compliments I get daily, it would be as if I am bragging. so I wont. Point being, be kind to one another!!!! ITS FREE! Now if you had to pass out a dollar everytime you got paid, then I can see you cutting back on the niceness,. LOL BUT ITS FREE!! GOODNESS.

What I learned today in that situation is, I have to let people do their own thing. I\’m always trying to * make everything alright* and end up getting upset in the end, because I try to help people and they still don\’t get it.

Tonight at 9pm it was time for me to leave my register TO GO HOME. It was sooooooooooooooooo many customers in the store, it was crazy. When I turned my light off , guess how many registers were opened? ONE 1! Yes one. So I said well Ill take a few more people, just so that I wont leave my coworker out there too bad. I took one, then 2 then 3 then 4 and that\’s when I said OK that\’s it, my light is off now. I said Maam * eye to eye contact* after you I\’m closed.You are my last customers. She was happy and said OK. Didn\’t I look up minutes later, and see a man behind her. I said OH sir I\’m closed after her * pointing to the lady I looked in the eyes. Then she said out of her mouth * rolling my eyes* right now thinking about it lol* ummmmmmm the lady in front of me left, so I told him he could get in line.?????????????????I know my face turned purple. LOL I said WHO? She said in a scary voice after she seen my face, the lady that was in front of me left. I said okay she left, ANDDDDDDDDDDD, but I told YOU that I was closed. I said maam its wayyyyyyyy time for me to leave, I was just being nice TAKING YOU. She said okay I understand I do. So the guy left. And see I wasn\’t being mean, but I told about 3 people WHO was still getting in line when she and the other lady was standing there , that I was closed. How would it look for me to take him and the other people come to me and say, I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WERE CLOSED?

Whew these people crazy!!! Everything was cool tho, I worked over 9 hours and I was outta there!! Well I gotta get up and do it tomorrow again until 8pm. Good Night!

EXCUSE THE TYPOS…..IM CROSSED EYED SLEEPY!

My Favorite Hollywood Men * pair #2*

This is really been fun. And hard!!!! As the days went by, I kept on thinking about more and more Hollywood Men that are just great!!! But, we have come to the # 2 spot.

Brad Pitt and Shaquille O Neal!

I love me some Shaq! Big Deeeeee-sel! What I love about this man is off the court he has a big heart. He loves kids, his family, he\’s a people person. He\’s sarcastic like I am, but in a funny and truthful way. He\’s a big kid at heart, and I love that about him. Even tho I can be selfish with my Hollywood Men, when it comes to their wives or gurlfriends…….they always seem to pick the best.

When I found out that he and Shaunie was divorcing, I was sick about it. I just couldn\’t believe it. I don\’t care about the details, just get it together and get back together. Again no Hollywood gossip from these men I have chosen so far. And I love that about them! Shaq is probably in his last 5 years in the NBA. The next season 2008-2009 I will see him Live at the Palace against the Detroit Pistons. I was suppose to go and meet him this year when he came to Detroit, but he got traded :(. But its all good. I\’ll see you soon Shaq!

Below is a photo of my Sister\’s best friend who LOVES SHAQ more than me… let her tell it!!!

Below is a photo of the lady above daughter * my God Niece*
Brad Pitt!!
What can I say about this SEXY HANDSOME MAN!!! OMG! LOL
Check out this movie scene from one of my favorite movies
Mr. and Mrs. Smith!!!

Brad Pitt! I use to see Brad Pitt everywhere, never did I really really rally pay any attention to how sexy and such a great actor he was, until I went to the movies to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith!!! I\’m probably one of his biggest fans!! The chemistry he had with Angelina was undeniable!! Jennifer couldn\’t deny that! I had never seen chemistry like this EVER on a screen . I went to see this movie 2 times at the show, and when it came out on DVD, I bought it and watched it a thousand times!!! LOL

I\’m happy that Brad is getting the children that he\’s always wanted, Angelina is happy given them to him, and they look to be great great parents. I\’m always reading about how they are fixing up New Orleans, and how they always have their children together. I\’m happy for them both. Now if we could just get some wedding bells.

*My Favorite Hollywood Men*

I wanted to do my Favorite Hollywood Men in a separate entry. Were getting down to the nitty gritty of this, and I also want to show some videos. Even though I have thought of more men that I won\’t post, but the #1 person will stay the same!!!

Here are my favorite men for the #3 slot.

Denzel Washington and Gene Simmons!!

Gene Simmons

I love Denzel Washington. Not only is he good looking *OOOWEEEEE* but he play the heck out of every role he\’s been in. A few of my favorite movies from him is Mo Better Blues, Malcolm X, Inside Man, and Out of Time.The song Mo Better Blues is one of my favorite scenes in the movie. I have to pop in this DVD at least once a month. My soul craves the music. He\’s also married to his beautiful wife Paulette, and I love the way he loves her. You never hear any gossip or anything about him, and that\’s really a turn on!! Denzel I love ya Bro.

Gene Simmons~ I had heard of the kiss group long time ago, but when I seen Gene Simmons out of make up. I fell in LOVE . When I found out that his first episode of Gene Simmons Family Jewels was coming on. I was front and center!!! When I saw the way he loved his gurlfriend Shannon and his kids Nick and Sophie, it made me love him even more!!! And he\’s a Virgo like me!!! LOL Even though I wish that he would marry Shannon, he loves her and respects her to the fullest. That\’s what I look at. I LOVE HIS SHOW!!! LOVE IT! Gene you\’re alright with me!

Above is one of my favorite episodes!!! Watch it.

I\’ll be back with my last 2 tomorrow before THE #1 PERSON IS REVEALED!!

*King David, One Year Bible, Tamar*

Hey,

Today was a good day!!! Thank you Jesus. I had to be at work at 9, things went smooth and fast. My sister and niece came over today and ate dinner with us. That was cool. We watch the Pistons game, they lost. That\’s okay, because we\’re tied 2-2.

On to the heavy stuff. Today\’s One Year Bible Reading is about when Tamar got raped by her brother Amnon. I read the story before, but this time I was so into the story of David and how he plotted and killed Uriah so that he could marry Bathsheba who was Uriah\’s husband.

Then when God told Nathan to tell David…….. 11 \”This is what the LORD says: \’Out of your own household I am going to bring calamity on you. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to one who is close to you, and he will sleep with your wives in broad daylight. 12 You did it in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.\’ \”

I was outdone. I cried for Tamar. I felt her pain. Before I read I ask God to let me feel the Spirit of the people I\’m reading about. I cried, I almost closed down my computer and went to bed. I was just devastated. I felt as if I was her. I felt ashamed. Then when I read about how her brother * which are all David\’s children* Absalom later killed Amnon that did something to me, because I felt David\’s pain. I\’m sure some of you have read this story before , but its something about reading it again and again, seems like you get something different every time.

Below is some of it, when you are done. Please click here to read the rest. Find today\’s date and read, read read read!!!!

One Year Bible OnLine – May

2 Samuel 11

David and Bathsheba

1 In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, David sent Joab out with the king\’s men and the whole Israelite army. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained in Jerusalem.

2 One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing. The woman was very beautiful, 3 and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, \”She is Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite.\” 4 Then David sent messengers to get her. She came to him, and he slept with her. (Now she was purifying herself from her monthly uncleanness.) Then she went back home. 5 The woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, \”I am pregnant.\”

6 So David sent this word to Joab: \”Send me Uriah the Hittite.\” And Joab sent him to David. 7 When Uriah came to him, David asked him how Joab was, how the soldiers were and how the war was going. 8 Then David said to Uriah, \”Go down to your house and wash your feet.\” So Uriah left the palace, and a gift from the king was sent after him. 9 But Uriah slept at the entrance to the palace with all his master\’s servants and did not go down to his house.

10 David was told, \”Uriah did not go home.\” So he asked Uriah, \”Haven\’t you just come from a military campaign? Why didn\’t you go home?\”

11 Uriah said to David, \”The ark and Israel and Judah are staying in tents, [c] and my commander Joab and my lord\’s men are camped in the open country. How could I go to my house to eat and drink and make love to my wife? As surely as you live, I will not do such a thing!\”

12 Then David said to him, \”Stay here one more day, and tomorrow I will send you back.\” So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day and the next. 13 At David\’s invitation, he ate and drank with him, and David made him drunk. But in the evening Uriah went out to sleep on his mat among his master\’s servants; he did not go home.

14 In the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah. 15 In it he wrote, \”Put Uriah out in front where the fighting is fiercest. Then withdraw from him so he will be struck down and die.\”

16 So while Joab had the city under siege, he put Uriah at a place where he knew the strongest defenders were. 17 When the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of the men in David\’s army fell; moreover, Uriah the Hittite died.

18 Joab sent David a full account of the battle. 19 He instructed the messenger: \”When you have finished giving the king this account of the battle, 20 the king\’s anger may flare up, and he may ask you, \’Why did you get so close to the city to fight? Didn\’t you know they would shoot arrows from the wall? 21 Who killed Abimelek son of Jerub-Besheth [d]? Didn\’t a woman drop an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?\’ If he asks you this, then say to him, \’Moreover, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.\’ \”

22 The messenger set out, and when he arrived he told David everything Joab had sent him to say. 23 The messenger said to David, \”The men overpowered us and came out against us in the open, but we drove them back to the entrance of the city gate. 24 Then the archers shot arrows at your servants from the wall, and some of the king\’s men died. Moreover, your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.\”

25 David told the messenger, \”Say this to Joab: \’Don\’t let this upset you; the sword devours one as well as another. Press the attack against the city and destroy it.\’ Say this to encourage Joab.\”

26 When Uriah\’s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him. 27 After the time of mourning was over, David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing David had done displeased the LORD.

God Bless You All

* My gift*

Good Evening!

Today was a good day!! I didn\’t have to work today, but I have a full load ahead. Plus as I mentioned before my friend LaSonja is getting married on Sunday. I slept in late today, my phone was ringing this morning as usual. I laid on the couch just thinking about some of everything. Why do I think so much? I\’m always sorting things out in my head. There was something I was suppose to do this morning and still I can\’t think what it was. When I have business to take care of, if I don\’t do it, it will stay on my mind until I do. I did go to the cleaners to drop off my black gauchos that I\’m wearing Sunday. I love those babies, now I have to go to the mail Saturday after work and find me some shoes to go with it. Normally I wear my boots but its gonna be too warm for those.

After I left the cleaners, I ran in the store to buy some bread. As soon as I walked in some guy who works there was standing near the door. I walked in fast and in a hurry , looked up at him and said hey boooooo how you doing? He says: I\’m doing fine and you, I said pretty good, pretty good. * my momma talks like that*. He says: I see you are doing pretty good, I felt your Spirit when you walked into the door. I was bending down looking at bread trying to hurry up and get outta dodge, cause I was LOOKING RUFF!!! LOL But when he said that, I looked up at him and said thank you so much, I try to, Lord knows I do. So I went and paid for my bread and as I was leaving, he said wooooooooeee let me open up the door for you. He was flirting a little, but it was something else. It was my Spirit. If I could be this way all the time, that would be a good thing. Its hard work, and I\’m willing to do it. God wants his light to shine through us.The bible says: 16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16 (New International Version) We must all encourage each other, and stay in the race. Tomorrow I\’m back to work and I must remember these same words I\’m sharing with you all. Be a light……….. Lacrease.

This morning when I was thinking about God, I started remembering the time when I was in my early 20\’s. I had just moved out from my parents home and moved into my own place. God would tell me things before they would happen and I was like wowwwwwwwww. He would whisper things to me, and when it was actually happening I would think about how he told me it would be. In my mind that was the good part. But when he told me that my daughter\’s father and my *supposedly* best friend exchange phone numbers. I didn\’t like that part. I couldn\’t put together a loving God telling me something after/before it happened, without stopping it. I couldn\’t comprehend that. So, guess what I did? I said God take this THING away from me. I said I\’m tired of knowing stuff before it happens, and when I tell others they don\’t believe me………….. and it end up happening anyway. I said I don\’t want to know. So guess what? He took it from me. Yep, he show did. For a long time, Cree-dog didn\’t know nothing!!!! I was in the dark just like eerrrrrrrrybody else.

As I got older I started going through my own challenges. I had went through so much mentally with my daughter\’s father that I needed God. I was mad because I had pushed him away. I prayed and prayed and prayed and I told him that I was sorry and that I wanted my gift back. I knew I was young and inmature and didn\’t know what I was experiencing. When he finally gave it back to me, it was stronger than EVER!!! I wouldn\’t trade my gift in for nothing in the world!!! Everyday he tells me something new, and the more I share it with others, the more they don\’t believe. And when it come to pass, I really don\’t have much to say. I just don\’t. But that\’s okay and its all good. I\’m keeping my goodies to myself. AND I GOT SOME TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

* rolling my eyes* tryna focus. Okay……………

I sit back and think about me and my husband * if the Lord say the same* and how I want to treat him. Something in me wants to just spoil him to death. When I give LaSonja her gift in a card, I\’m going to write a one page letter to her. Its mostly going to be my words, and Scriptures in the bible about marriage. I\’m so happy for them.

Well, I\’m closing for now, gotta go and read my bible lesson for today. Let me tell you all about that again. My and Neisha are doing this One year bible study, its dated daily and they have it so that you can read the Old Test, the New Test, psalm, and proverbs. Its sooooooooo interesting, and its not too much at the same time. Here is the link, please if you\’re not reading the word daily. Here you are! CLICK ON THAT LINK BELOW AND LETS START READING DAILY!

I\’m gone!

Cree

Cree is in the house!!!!

Hey,

Today was a good day!! I woke up to hotness this morning. Its been 60ish and 70ish all year. Then this morning I woke up early, it was hot denamug!!! You know how you try to go back to sleep, but you gotta pee and as soon as you open your eyes, its like the pee know you\’re awake and want to come out faster and aggressive? LOL Well that\’s how it did me this morning. After I got up I stayed up, make some spaghetti for dinner before I went to work * my daughter loves mines* and I work for 7 hours today. Time flew by too, maybe because I was off for 2 days in a row * which never happens unless I request it .*

This morning, I forgot to read my Faith for a Lifetime Inspirations. I thought about it when I got to work, and the first thing I said was Lord, let today be a good day. And it was. These days, you shouldn\’t go a day without praying. When I\’m reading my bible daily, I feel so good. I feel so good you can slap me and I probably won\’t feel it. As soon as I close it, there is the enemy trying to make up for that time I gained with God. It amazes me how Satan just wont give up. Then I hear God will this calm, soft spoken, but with authority voice overpower the enemy.

Everyday I try to examine myself to see what areas I need God to work on, I am truly a work in progress, God aint hardly done with me yet. He knows everything there is no know about me. I was thinking recently how big of an influence I have on people at work because it\’s so many people, and when I\’m upset about something, they watch me. They want to see how I handle things, they want to see all this God stuff I talk * in season* is still the God I serve *out of season*. Its funny too, because in the middle of my ranting and raving, I can hear God say: Aiiiiiiight Lacrease calm down, cause when you\’re not upset anymore, you\’re going to have to explain to them why you\’re not acting Godly. LOL Isn\’t that amazing? And it never fails!!! That\’s why Christians have to be careful of what you say to and around people, because they want to know if you are going to *be yourself*, or if you are going to do *what Jesus would do*.

Aiight, I\’m getting sleepy, my eyes are crossing. Here is day 2 of naming my Top 10 Hollywood Favorite Men. When I get to the last day and person, I\’m going to write a full page on this person.

Idris Elba

Something about those male Virgos!!! I\’m 5 years and 3 days older than he is. He seem to be a good and loving person. I love his accent, and I love the way he carries himself. I loved him in Daddy\’s Little Girls and I plan to see all his movies.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

I have seen all of his movies, he is my favorite male actor EVER! I loved him in Terminator and when he became Governor I was upset because I wanted him to still do movies. Its okay tho, as long as he\’s happy, I\’m happy. I was hoping for a Terminator 4! But that may never happen. This is one bad dude!

Have a Blessed Day!

Cree!

*Sorry Lord* and My Favorite Hollywood Men

I\’m here!!

I said to myself that I wasn\’t going to blog today, that I was going to chill , finish painting and read a book. But I\’m addicted to blogging as you can see.

Well the real reason why I\’m here is because after last night when I posted, I got to thinking about something. I can be selfish sometimes with myself. I like to be alone at times, I like to go to the movies alone sometimes, I like to take rides around the city alone, I like to shop alone, I like to go to the book store alone, and when people demand my time, I can act selfish.

I can\’t be that way.

Maybe people see something in me that I don\’t see. Maybe I give good advice, maybe I listen well, maybe I\’m honest and will tell them to truth, maybe I can comfort them, maybe I lead them to God, maybe that\’s my job on this earth. I will never understand why people call me for advice or need to talk to me. But one thing I do know is, God told me to pick up my phone tonight to talk to a friend. When I picked it up, she told me that her daughter *she\’s 9* dad had committed suicide and that his funeral will be this week. I felt like crying, tears were in my eyes. And here I am acting funky and stank with my gift to comfort. Everything comes from God, and I know this, and I got to regroup my self, and stop being so selfish. We talked for a long time , she said only a few people she can call and I was one of the 3. I haven\’t seen her in years. Tell me that aint God. I listened to her and she needed that. And it taught me something too. I need to be ashamed of myself. But you know what? I\’m glad she called, because none of this stuff is about Lacrease. I see that Lord.We are all here to help one another, and that\’s what I love doing.

Sometimes I feel so overwhelmed with phone calls and visits, that I\’m not getting a chance to know myself. I believe this is why I\’m feeling this way. I\’m still learning Lacrease, and who she is. But Lord, I know in the meantime, that I am to encourage the people you send my way, and not to be selfish and to myself. Thank you for telling me to answer the phone, my friend really needed me, and I got some healing out of it as well. I lost a boyfriend to suicide and I know what she\’s going through. Forgive me Lord and work on me.

Tonight, I want to say Lord, I\’m sorry, and please work on me in this area. Teach me Lord to have more patience and to understand that to be able to listen to a friend is a gift and to minister is also. I know Lord that you can take this away from me at anytime. This is who I am. Again, this is who I am!!! I need to understand that. You taught me everything I know good, and I am to share it with others. Please forgive me for being selfish. I need for you to work on me!!! In Jesus name. Amen!

Okay, lets have some fun!!

Last night and the night before me and Neisha was having our *mother daughter* talk as we do every night before going to bed. When she asked me to name all my favorite *Hollywood actors MALE*. It was so funny to do this because she knows me like a book, and she knows what I\’m attracted to as far as people and personality. So, starting tonight, and every night, I\’m going to kick this off in a blog my Top 10 male Hollywood actors and singers. This is going to be fun. I\’m going to write a brief story on why I love and admire them, and when it comes to the #1 person, I\’m going to write a full page on them. I have made a list of 5 white and 5 black.

Ready?

George Clooney and Tyrese

George Clooney~ This is one fione older man! When I first saw him, I was like danggggg he SEXY. I remember a long time ago I was working at a drug store and this lady came in and was telling me that she was going to California to visit someone in her family, and that she was going to the set of E.R. I was like wow, I love George Clooney. When that lady came back from her visit, she came up to my job and gave me a photo with her and George Clooney on the set. I have that photo to this day. George, you\’re on my Top 10 List of my *Hollywood Men

Tyrese~ I will never forget that Coco Cola Commercial he did. Boy he can sing! But wait, he took the cake when he did Baby Boy. Tyrese is one of the sexiest men in the game these days. You don\’t hear gossip or anything about him. I love his role in Baby boy because it reminds me of my younger days, and I can laugh at myself. I loved him in the Four Brothers. Um um um. I love the closeness of the brothers. Did I mention how fione he is!!

Aiight, check in tomorrow for the next Set of my Favorite Hollywood Men!

*Cree\’s Ramblings*

I\’m back!!

I\’m blogging a lot lately, it has really helped me to clear my head!! Goodness all those thoughts wont sit in my head any longer, they are out in the atmosphere.

I got up this morning and had my nephew come over and cut the grass. Whew it was high!! WE had so much rain, shoo I wasn\’t going to cut it just so that it could grow back in 1 hour. LOL But dang, it had gotten to high. I have a lot to do in the coming weeks. I had requested to have today off, because LaSonja was suppose to get married on this day, but she moved it up to June 1. So since it was already approved…….I\’m just chilling!!! My coworker called me from work and ask me can we open the BD list up to this lady who wants to join. I told her that it wouldn\’t bea good idea because it has already started, and guess what? Her BD is coming up next. Which mean I would have to tell the others that we have a new person. They\’ll look at me like…………you got us messed up!!! How you gon let another person join, and she comes in and her Birthday is next? LOL Gurl Bye!

One of my good friends was mad at me. I mean really mad at me. She use to live here in Detroit, now she lives in Chicago. She says that every time we talk on the phone, she will have my attention for a while, then…….all of a sudden she hears me typing on the computer. And she feels that I am disrespecting the fact that she\’s talking, and she has no time to waste, if I\’m not listening. Well, I get that part, and she\’s right.I\’m sorry if I can cook, talk on the phone with the cordless phone in my bra, ear piece in my ear, run to my car, paint, read, and push mute and talk to the person who is in the room with me. Don\’t get mad tho.. LOL EVERYBODY tells me the same thing. My phone rings all day.If I talk to everybody who calls me, then I wont be doing anything for myself. I talk to the same people about the same things, and still they want me to go over it over and over and over and over and over again. Now talk about a disrespect. Then when they see me doing well, they want to know the * secret*. How bout ain\’t none! How bout, if you had listen and watched me, instead of getting out all your stories out then you would know. I\’m talking about my other friend now. He calls and want to come over, and talk about his same issue over and over and over again. I\’m sorry. I gotta cook, and run my errands too……..how bout that?

But you know what? Its all my fault. Because I started off with my friends like that. I\’m a natural teacher and listener. That\’s who I am. Back when I got my own place my couch was a place where you could come and we\’d talk for hours. I cant do that any more. I\’m sorry. After a while, I get bored and be ready to hang up in the middle of a sentence.LOL I wouldn\’t dare do that tho.I\’m not needy or clingy. Seems like I attract people who always need to talk……..all the time. I dunno, its not a bad thing, I just can\’t handle all that anymore.

See, back in the day my door was open to everyone, you didn\’t have to call to come over, shoo it became overwhelming for me. I\’d look up and none of my house work was done, no food was cooking, the bathroom was nasty, the floors needed mopping. Naw, its a wrap for that stuff. Say what you gotta say, and lets DEPART for a minute.

I\’m sorry I need my space. When I get married. I swear my husband has to have his own space for the things he like. He has to have his own room for whateva. And the same with me. I gotta have a place where I can go to think and regroup myself. I have so many messages, and so many names on my caller ID that it\’s crazy.

The good part about it is, we made up. She didn\’t talk to me for over a month. But it was me who called her tonight #67 * Anonymous* so she picked up the phone. Guess I tricked her, she let me have it too. he he

I love my friends tho, I wouldn\’t trade them for anything in the world. When I get married whewwwwwwww, my list is going to be long. My friends WILL KILL ME, if I leave them out of my wedding. OMG! I really dread for that part to come, especially if we are working on a serious budget. Thinking about how many people I know, just gives me a headache. I\’m glad that I don\’t have to worry about that right now.

Speaking of getting married. I plan to continue to sustain from Sex until that day. My coworkers talk about me all the time at work, making jokes. They say I have cob webs. LOL I crack up. I tell them yeah I do, but when he knocks the dust off, it\’ll be a feeling better than the same ole thrill your getting!!! Shuts them up every time! This guy who I use to kick it with came through my line yesterday. LOOKING GOOD! OOOOWEEEEE. He gave me a big ole hug, saying gurl you don\’t look a day over the age we were at that time * 23 -24ish*. All this weight I\’ve gained. Boy Bye! LOL His son is going to College this year, and he\’s still married. That\’s a blessing! He\’s doing good too. It just reminds me that all the sex you\’re having with people who has no intentions on being with you, they go off and marry someone else. I could have save my stuff, KLINK KLINK and locked it down! Instead we left each other thinking about the past. We didn\’t say it, but of course we thought it. LOL

Me and my coworker was talking the other day, she has a favorite manager and I have one too. They don\’t play favoritism, but its fair to say that some managers vibe better with an employee than the next. My favorite manager is a Christian, and we understand each other. One day recently, her husband called up to the job to talk with her because he is a bank manager and his bank got robbed at gunpoint. She\’s a private person like me, and she knows that if she tells me ANYTHING, she don\’t have to worry about it getting back to anyone. Anyway, she was looking for me, the others knew something was going on but they didn\’t know what it was. When my other coworker* who don\’t care too much for my favorite manager* came and asked ME what was wrong with her, I didn\’t know that something had happened at that time. So I told her I didn\’t know what she was talking about. So, I went to her later and
asked her what\’s wrong? She told me and that was the end of that. Later on my coworker came back to me * guess cause I didn\’t run to her and tell her what happened* she said yeah I know you know what happened. I said gurl……….why would I tell you somebody else business? Gurl Bye! LOL We laughed, people are funny.

This coming up week is going to be a busy one. I have to work 9 hours a day. Plus I gotta get my brows, lashes and nails done for the wedding. I gotta go and buy me some shoes, and do my hair. I\’m going to finish painting my room tomorrow, and straighten up my business room. I have my Sister Pearls Linda and Cookie coming to Detroit to stay with me July 23 until we fly out to ATL on July 24. I want to do something nice for them the day I pick them up from the bus station. But then again I dunno, because we\’re getting up early the next day. Neisha is going to Cincinnati for a month in June instead of July now. Which is cool. Then I have a wedding on the 7th of June. OOOOO goodness. Oh yea and my Anita Baker friends are coming to Detroit. Me and my best friend Charlene is going to Las Vegas in Oct. She called me to day asking……. WHEN ARE WE BUYING OUR PLANE TICKETS??? LOL My sister is about to plan our 3rd trip to Florida Disney World! We go 4 trucks deep, rest in ATL and then ride on out. Last time we went was about 4 years ago, we stopped over in the suburbs of Atlanta, we went in the room and this bug was so big, we couldn\’t kill that thing for nothing in the world. The skin/scab/crust/back/wings/scale/ peeled off and took off running. All the ladies were RUNNING AND SCREAMING on the bed, and the men were looking like WTH Shoo none of us slept good that night. We got another room, and the next day my Sisters mentioned the bug to the front desk person, and we got the room for free anyway!! They told the lady, we live in Detroit we aint use to bugs like that! Baby, when daylight came we hot tailed out of ATL. I hate bugs, just today a ant was on me, I was screaming,jumping and hollering, and made a mistake and flipped the thang on to my daughter. She was screaming, I was screaming, Then we just laughed. ROFL. Il\’l jump out of your car if a bug get on me, I don\’t care if its moving or not. I\’m jumping out!!! LOL

Talk to you all later.

Have a Happy Memorial Day. and

Be Blessed

Cree!!!

* My friend is getting married in 8 days*

I’m so excited! My friend is getting married Next Sunday June 1, 2008. I’m so happy for her.
I met LaSonja about 13 years ago. We lived in a 4 family flat. When they fixed up the apartment in the basement * which was better than the others* she moved in. That was during the time when all my friends would come over and we’d play cards till the wee hours on the morning, drinking, talking, laughing, and eating. She was the kinda person who mind her own business, she had the cutest little 2 gurls you would ever see. I was the one who had the music playing all the time, me and my friends would do all kinds of new hustles for when we go out to the club. She would speak and go back into her apartment.
Making friends with her was hard. Maybe it was because she didn’t want to make friends with a bunch of women. It was something about her that was different. She had the warmest Spirit. She kept her gurls up, and she always had her hair and nails done. One day me and the ladies that lived in the building were sitting on the front porch, when she came out and sat with us because her kids wanted to play outside with our kids. We all started talking and laughing. We would sit on the porch all day after work and let our kids play together. We would be going through problems with our kids dad, and that was another thing that bought us all close. We were all young experiencing the same things.
In the winter months we would watch each other kids while we’d run errands to keep from dragging the other kids along. When we had to walk to the grocery store, one stayed home to watch our kids. There were so so so many times when food was low, we would all come together and eat. We would put our money together and cook us up a good meal. None of us had a car back then. lol We were young and making it the best way we can. We always respected each other, and NOT ONCE did any of us have a fallen out. We were all very tight, and our kids loved each other. I will never forget those times.
LaSonja was the first one to move out of the building. We were sad because we would miss the closeness we all had. But she only moved one block over into a home and it was nice, very nice. We all helped her move in and we would visit her whenever we could. As time went on, I moved back in with my parents for 2 years, it was very hard to find a place to move once the landlord had went up on our rent. After a while we all lost contact.
Several years ago, Sonja came into Walmart, we were so happy to see each other. Her daughter who wasnt even born yet when I first met La Sonja, was about 10 years old. It was good seeing them all again. I met her fiancee and he seems like he loves her to pieces. That’s when she told me that she had a son for him, and they were getting married. I was just so over joyed. She so deserves it.
I went to her Bridal Shower a few weeks ago, and I forgot to take my camera. She had so, so so many people that showed up. I had a grand time. And she asked me to sit at her table with her 2 new Sister N Laws.
When I see how God has bought us all from where we use to be, my soul says Thank you Jesus. To know the struggles of a friend, and to see her about to marry her best friend, her soul mate, makes me wanna cry. I’m happy when others are happy. I cry when others cry. God is in the area, he is in the area of my friends being blessed, you cant be anything but happy for them. I know my time will come too.
LaSonja this is your week boo! I love you gurl, and I cant wait to see you on Sunday. * Congratulations*
