A concert ticket, a scam, and The Family That Preys!

Today was a good day for me. Thank you Jesus. I got up and called in to work. LOL I was only scheduled for 4 hours so I decided to make today my rip and run day. Plus I did something I have been waiting to do. Ill tell yall later.
As some of you may know * since its all over the news* including Essence Magazine. My Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick resigned yesterday. I was at work when he was in court, but just so happened it was lunch time for me and I watched the preceding LIVE for an hour. I was very happy that he did that. I know it may have been hard to do, but the city needed it, the people and his wife and kids the most. My heart went out to her as she held him with this look on her face, and tears in her eyes. But it is what it is, and let me say this.
Now that the Mayor has resigned, and too all the people who keep talking about it, and still trying to bring him down…. they are messing with God now. Once he admitted his guilt to God, the people and his family, that\’s a wrap. He don\’t owe anyone anything. Its time to move on. If I was him I would move so far out of the city, and when I return….. I would be a totally new person. One thing he did say, that I was really loving, he said this has bought him and his wife closer than they have ever been before. Maybe it was God\’s way of saying, hey, she loves you, and you need to know what you have. Who knows what this was about God. But please believe me when I say…God is in the midst.
During the resignation speech, he and his wife looked so peaceful, and so excited that this is behind them. I was LOVING IT. And see these are not people who are saying… Oh God come into my life. God has always been there lives they are Christians, the sin separates us from him. And so to those who don\’t know about God, you can see God resting on them in the press room. I was in awe. Its so sad that some didn\’t even recognize it. All I know is, to all those that still have something to say…..they are going to be re-directed to God. Yes, I do agree that he should pay for everything that he has done. Everything!!! But at that same time, he apologized to everyone for his mistakes, people need to let him do his time, pay the $1,000,000, resign, and regroup. Those days and nights in jail will be a time for him to see God face to face. That will be a time where he can build a even stronger relationship with him. This will be a time for healing for all of us. I\’m just excited to see what God is going to do through him when this is all over in the years to come. Wanna see God…… watch Kwame Kilpatrick!!!

This morning I had to call in because I had to go and renew my plates. My BD was Sept 3, and I didn\’t want to drive my car with bogus plates. Plus…… Maxwell tickets went on sale this morning @ 10:am!! Yep, and I will be sitting in the 4Th row from the stage. So I end up paying a total of $103.00 for my ticket on line this morning. I asked about 3 people and they talking about buy my ticket and I\’ll pay you back. I SAID AT $103.00 GURL BYE! You won\’t be going to this concert!!! LOL Shoo my momma bought me this ticket as my BD gift. Even if I was paying out of my own pocket, I ain\’t bout to come up with $306.00 for nobody!! I had to pay my cable bill, phone bill, lights, gas, $200.00 for my cruise, food, insurance, and a coupla otha thangs. So I guess I\’ll be doing a solo………….and to see my baby Maxwell whom Ive been waiting on for years, and years, and years…… to come to Detroit……oh well. I don\’t like to talk through plays or concerts anyway.
This evening I also purchased 2 tickets to see Tyler Perry\’s The Family that Preys for that Thursday night at a special late night showing. I know its going to be sold out, so I bought ours on line. I know me, I will be going back to see it with my mom that Sat, and with my gurls that Sunday. So as usual I will have a jammed packed Tyler Perry weekend. So make sure you all go out and support him on OPENING WEEKEND. The numbers on the first weekend SAYS A LOT!
I want to share a story with you all. Read carefully.
My good friend called to wish me and Happy Birthday* Sept 3* and she was telling me how God has really blessed her with this job paying really well being a secret shopper, and this is how it goes. They send her a check for a certain amount, normally over $3,000.00, she would take it to HER bank to deposit it, the bank will hold the check for 4-5 days. If she have enough in her account to cover it, she can get the money on the spot. She would get the money, take out her portion, and then send the rest * about $3500.00 to a Money Gram or Western Union, to someone in Canada.If your last name is Thomas, they will tell you to tell * Walmart* that you are sending this to your relative, and that person will use your last name as the person receiving. In Canada they don\’t have to show ID to collect Money Grams. We do here in United States. This is a scam!!!
She called her bank today and they said it didn\’t clear, and she wanted to know why * not knowing it was a scam*, they couldn\’t tell her. Then she had a flash back of what I told her about this when she told me about it. I work for Walmart I knew it was a scam. we weren\’t for sure, so she\’s going to her bank on Monday to report it.I hope they don\’t look at her like this…. They even froze her account.It just goes to show you how gullible we can be sometimes. Especially in hard times, anything sounds good. If it doesn\’t seem right in your Spirit….chances are its not.
So, I went on line just tonight and looked it up for myself. And OMG. Please read this for yourself. Click Below. These stories will give you chills. Be ware people!
Aiight, I\’m gone to do some work in my home office. I will talk to you all later.
