 Sunday, March 11, 2012  But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words. – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
I’m a fool, I’m such a fool
What?! That real, that deep, that burning, that amazing unconditional, inseparable love
That feel like forever, that always emotional but still exceptional love
Can’t nobody tell me nothing it is what it is
And any mistake you make I, I just may forgive Oooh,
Right now, right now at this very moment , still love her like I loved her then
Oooooh
I love her in and out and up and down and ’round and ’round and over and over again
So rare they swear that you just don’t exist
And It’s only one person I can think of make me feel like this
And I’m a fool, such a fool for you!
(Melanie Fiona – Verse)
OH, So sweet, so deep, so real, oooh weeee got dayum That’s some powerful stuff Ooh,
How you do it?
Do do do it G Keep it coming baby, I can’t seem to get enough
What you do, what you say
Makes me want to luh luh love you Baby, I don’t even have a choice
Ooh
and if I did it’d still be you Cuz you’re the man, among these other boys
Sweet sugar, I surrender, white flag,Oh I won’t even put up a fight Ooooh
cuz there ain’t a damn thing wrong About this kind of loving Ooh when it feels so right
Call her, write a letter, tell it to my mama And she gon’ tell the world that I love You!
Oooooh
some people probably say I’m crazy But I don’t mind, being a fool a for you.
I’m a fool, I’m a fool, I’m such a fool….
Where works of the flesh exists, there is NO joy
Seems like the closer I get to my breakthrough the more attacked I am. I’m just shaking my head right now at everything that is coming up against me. If I wasn’t strong and knew God the way I do, I’ll be somewhere crying. But I’m the baddest chick ( Spiritually speaking) and I’m not breaking down. I’m about to push through some doors, people I talk too everyday don’t have a clue about what’s going down with me. Some stuff you just can’t share. And by me being a giving and sharing person, I know….. I’m going to have to make people understand that *YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME… BUT YOU HAVE NO IDEA*. And they’re going to feel *left behind*. Not because of me, but because of themselves.
Everybody knows * Pheadra Parks voice* that I love to plan gatherings. And also, I’m invited to a lot of them. Most of the people I go with are coworkers. Yesterday my coworker * MY BOSS* called me and asked me to go with her and some others. I’m not the type of person that’s gonna call up my friends, to go with me. I don’t do that. Its not my function and to me its rude to invite others. I don’t hang out often but when I do….. we have a good time. I love to laugh and have fun. It was a big thing on my FB page that I didn’t invite a few others. Well its not my function, I WAS INVITED…. okay you may know all of the people who were there, but still ITS NOT LACREASE’S FUNCTION. My thing is this, I always do the planning. Why don’t someone else plan the gatherings, why do they always wait on me? Its easy… I’ll show them how to do it. Anywayyyyyyyy I’m so done with that!!!!
Then today….. Lord help me. I was ringing up customers still in the zone from many things last week. The guy who raped me when I was a 18 year old virgin came through my line today with his wife, who is also my friend. MY heart wasn’t beating fast like it did a time before he came through my line. But I found my self being weird… looking at his fingers that he stuck so far up in me, I thought I was going to die. He’s so tall and strong, it just made me think about that night he left me bleeding. *SMH* Anyway… as they were leaving, he said to me something like …I still wonder if she’s my daughter and want a test. That irritated the HELL OUT OF ME. Every time he see me he says that. I met Neisha’s dad shortly after that happened to me. I was crazy about him. And it may sound foolish now, but I had sex with him, so that the guy who raped me wouldn’t be the last person. I got pregnant 3 months later, so when the guy who raped me found out I was pregnant, he bugged me and bugged me and still to this day…. KEEP F***ING BUGGING ME ABOUT IT. NOOOOOO SHE IS NOT YOUR CHILD! THANK GOD!!
SO, now I want Peace to continue to live in me, I want to do what I have to do to make my moves and take care of my business, doing what I love to do…. and that’s working with Teens.
In the meantime I have to keep PRESSING MY WAY…..my time is COMING 2012

We will miss Whitney Houston
Sitting here still DEVASTATED by the loss of Whitney Houston. My 2 Sisters absolutely loved this Woman. Back in the day they use to double team me about who was the BEST……her or Anita Baker. LOL Truth was, we LOVED them both. When Whitney was going through, I would pray for her, and pray for her, and pray for her, because I knew that God was bigger than any addiction. I knew that when she left this world, she would be at her best ever. And when I saw her do a interview with Shaun Robinson, and also with Jordan Sparks, she LOOKED DAYUM GOOD! She looked better older than she did younger, and I’m happy. Thank you Jesus!I know Saturday, that I’m going to boo hoo, and want to be alone, for a few hours. But the bigger picture is that she KNEW JESUS. She knew that he would come and save her, she knew that he loved her. He did. And for that I can smile 🙂
Hey
Hey
Thanks for the messages about my blog entries. So much is going on in my life right now, that I haven’t really been blogging like I normally do. But just know that when I do, I’m going to do some catching up.
Ok where do I start? LOL I went to one of my 2 BFF friends apartment for her BD celebration. I have to always get there early before her friends arrive so that we can catch up, laugh and talk our junk. Gloria is my RIDE OR DIE FRIEND. Have you ever had a friend that if you did some dirt, dirt, dirt and you know, you wont hear it again? Well she’s that person in my life. I met her in my/our “off the hook days”. So if anybody knows La’Crease…its Ms. Gloria. She keeps it REAL.. 100% ALL THE TIME, and she can handle me because I’m something else ( in a good way). LOL But anyway, since we live a ways from each other , and work daily, we don’t always get a chance to see each other often. So it was really good to celebrate her BD with her and her friends.
As she was in her kitchen mixing us up a LIQUOR FRUIT DRINK… which was OFF THE HENGES!!!! I was driving alone that night and had a ways to go ,so I only drank 3 cups. Ahhh it was so good. Yesterday she invited me to her cousins BOAT RIDE ON THE DETROIT PRINCESS BOAT FOR A MIDNIGHT CRUISE on March 10, that’s going to be fun. Oh yeah Gloria is the one who has came to all of my FEEDING THE HOMELESS FUNCTION. She is in all of my videos. Well enjoy. I had to add music over this, because we laughed and talked to much, plus we didn’t want anyone to hear our conversation.
Okay, I was going to write more, but I want/need to get back to this book I’m reading.

Staying true and honest
Standing outside of the line that separates me from the “world” and the things in it. I can look inside and speak to it. Staying true and honest to myself, has allowed people to look at me and know I come from God. I speak…. they listen.

Learn to GIVE your best…..
At work we have this food donation box and as I went to go look in it to see what people were giving, I realized that it was all NO NAME BRAND items, and stuff people wouldn’t eat. The boxes were bent in and chewed up on the corners.
This has always bothered me.
Why do people call themselves giving especially when it comes to food, but give THE FOOD THEY WOULDNT EAT? What is the purpose of that? That’s not giving, that’s cleaning out your food pantry and giving away food you can’t see yourself throwing in the garbage. That’s selfish as HELL!!! If you’re going to give, GIVE YOUR BEST. If you’re going to a baby shower, take your best gift. If you’re going to a wedding give your best!!! People get out of the “dollar sto” mentality!!! If you want good gifts you have to learn to GIVE good gifts. I don’t have anything against the dollar store at all ( let me make that clear), but I don’t shop there for myself, and its out of order to shop there for anyone else… IF YOU DON’T SHOP THERE!!!! Yes, I know you can buy cards and other small items there, THATS FINE, but don’t make it a habit to buy a gift for someone from the dollar store.
If you want to donate, go to your OWN food cabinet and give it away. Learn to get in habit of giving away your “good stuff”. Its just “Stuff”. And what bothers me is that the people who are donating say” well, at least I’m giving them something”. What? Food that was headed to the garbage because you didn’t want it? If you want BIG Blessings, you have to give BIG BLESSINGS. We have to put away the “dollar sto” mentality. If you want a lady that wears the same shoe size as you to have some nice shoes, don’t give her shoes that are old and running over, what’s wrong with going to your closet and giving her your best?
I remember when my online Ministry Leader would send for us to come to Chicago to stay at her home, then take us to a resort to be pampered. She would tell us all the time, always give your best, God wants your best, never half step with giving. This was new to me, I felt if you are giving, then nothing should be said about it. But I kept it in my heart, and with the work that I do TODAY, I see how important it is to give your best. She would have gifts and more gifts and more gifts waiting for us. When it was time to fly back to Detroit, I had so much stuff to take with me. She gave us the works, and you can tell she spent good money on it. I was like wow. Here is someone who gives us something and its not cheesy, and not only that, but she had to buy several. And I looked at that and I adopted for myself.
If you want the best from God……learn to GIVE YOUR BEST!
Inside the *crazy* mind of Ms. Walker ( La’Crease) #2
Happy New Year!!!!! Now that the Christmas Season is over, I can calm down ( mentality speaking). LOL Working retail is NO JOKE.
Now, I know the saying goes “the customer is always right”. But NOT this time. And whether or not she wanted to admit it, I put a whopping on her conscience!!!!! This lady came through my line a few days ago. She was with her 2 kids around the ages of 9 and 11. She had to have been in her early 30’s. When she walked up to the counter, she was very very friendly, and so was her children. Now, when a customer brief you on a certain item, 9 times out of 10, she will dispute you about it later, because she knows there is some controversy about it. As she set her things on the belt, she says to me….. ” I bought one of the different sets to this doll at Christmas and now its on sale”. That told me then that it was some BS in the game. As I got to the doll, I rung it up, and gave her the total. She said oh wow, I don’t have enough money, so she starts taking things off the bill. No problem, I’ll just click the void button. Then she said what is my total? I gave it to her, then she says….”hey how much did that doll ring up for”? I said um $29.99. She said “No, that doll is on sale for $16.99”. I looked at it, and said are you sure, because normally it will ring for the sale price, and the sticker is on it. She said yeah. And I said No, its not on sale, I said well let me call my manager over, then she said….Well Ill go back and get the sale price that was attached to it. So, Im like okay….. She comes back with this sign with tape attached to it saying “Green Jacket” WAS $32.99 now $16.99. I said Maam… what is a Green Jacket? What you want is a baby doll!!!! She said I know but I didnt want the green jacket doll, I wanted this one. I said well okay this sign DOES NOT SAY $16.99 FOR THE DOLL YOU WANT. She said but the sign was hanging on this doll. I said, you went back and got that sign, and its NOT the same one. I said maam LOOK……this doll RINGS up for $29.99 and the sticker price SAYS $29.99. She ( kept this permanent business smile on ALL WHILE we went back and forth about it). The she says….but this is the sign that was on it. JUST LYING!!!! I said maam I REFUSE to let you leave here NOT UNDERSTANDING what IM SAYING TO YOU. I said listen, If this sign said DIET COKE $16,99 and YOU BRING ME A REGULAR COKE…… WOULD YOU EXPECT ME TO GIVE YOU THAT COKE FOR THAT PRICE JUST BECAUSE THE “STICKER” WAS ON IT? She said ( in that dam business smile) AND I HAD MINES ON TOO ( ONE OF THE MANY …NENE LEAKES FACIAL EXPRESSION)Â 
I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU’RE SAYING, BUT THIS STICKER WAS HANGING ON THERE!!! I said to myself if this heffa say that ONE MO TIME!!!!!!! I said maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam, IF Â Â Â Â YOUÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â GOÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â ANDÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â GETÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â THEÂ Â Â Â Â Â GREEN Â Â Â JACKET Â Â Â DOLLÂ Â Â Â Â , JUST Â Â Â LIKE Â Â Â Â THEÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â TICKET Â Â Â SAYS, Â Â Â THENÂ Â Â Â Â Â IÂ Â Â Â Â Â WILL Â Â Â HONOR Â Â Â THE Â Â Â Â PRICEÂ Â Â Â Â Â ( it would AUTOMATICALLY RING UP FOR THE SALE PRICE)………. Then she said BUT I DONT WANT THAT ONE…. I know my voice went up to 6 when she said that, cause I followed up and said, ………..MAAM PLEASEEEEEE PLEASEEEEEEEEE PLEASEEEEEEEEE TELL ME that you ARE GETTING WHAT IM SAYING…….. ( in my mind I’m saying I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE THIS DAYUM STUPID LADY WTH ARE YOU SERIOUS?) !!!!!!!! …….THEN SHE LAWYER UPEDÂ ON ME. LOL LOL LOL
She said well, can I see your manager? I knew then that she was going to win, THANKS TO THE PERSON who came over. This person came over, looked at the doll, and gave it to her. Oh, I was pissed. If my insides could burn up, I would have been on fire right there at the register. She kept that business smile on that irrated me to NO END. Her kids were watching it all. We weren’t screaming or anything, but her kids saw first hand HOW TO SCHEME!!! SMH. After my shift was over, I marched MY #VIRGO self to the toys department, and guess what I saw? The DOLL THAT SHE HAD WAS IN THE SPOT OF $29.99. and RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT NEXT TO IT WAS THE GREEN JACKET DOLL SPOT. SHE SNATCHED THAT STICKER SIGN OFF THE GREEN JACKET SPOT AND BOUGHT IT TO THE REGISTER. LYING FAKE PHONY HEFFA!!! My thang is this, I could have given her that doll for $15.00…… but she stood there and LIED, and I knew better. She wouldn’t be honest for nothing in the world.And see the customers behind her, they will watch and see how I handle things, and some may say.. okay Im getting in her line because she gives in to the foolishness, then some may say,thats right cashier, she IS DEAD WRONG!! Then some feel that I should have given her the doll without a debate about it, BECAUSE ITS GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE. And trust me…. I HAVE LET THINGS SLIDE WITHOUT A DEBATE MANY TIMES, JUST TO SATISFY THE CUSTOMER. But not this time. She wanted her daughter to have the doll so badly, and her daughter saw first hand how to get your way, if you LIE AND STEAL. It s not even about giving it to her, its about me going to get lengths to get her to understand that YOU ARE WRONG. QUIT SCHEMING FOR DAYUM $16.00. I had a headache after dealing with her and her lies. Had one of my other managers came to my register SHE WOULDN’T HAVE GOTTEN JACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And you know whats funny? When I call a manager over, I NEVER LET A CUSTOMER DO THE BRIEFING… I DO IT!!! This is how I presented my case. I said…this doll rings up for $29.99, and THE STICKER THATS ON THE DOLL SAYS $29.00. When it didn’t ring up for the price “she said”, she went back and bought back a sticker that says “Green Jacket” and that is no where on the BOX of this DOLL that she wants to purchase. ( THEN SHE SPEAKS BLAH BLAH LIE) Then this person looked at it, then looked back at my line ( which was longer than the letters in Mississippi) and then said “GIVE IT TO HER”. SMHHHHH HUH.LOL ANYWAYYY
NOW LOOK AT THE PHOTO ABOVE….. TELL ME WHY SHE DIDNT WANT THE GREEN JACKET DOLL?
LIFE GOES ON!!
