Laughter IS the best medicine……………. From the Desk of Cree

lol tablets

Hey,

What’s going on family? Didn’t I lay on the couch to watch Maid in Manhattan for the 1000 time and fell asleep? When I fall asleep, its a wrap! I’ll probably be up until after 5 am. I did not mean to do that.

Have you ever been so angry with someone that the thought of it made your whole insides boil? Yesterday this was my situation. I was so angry, God told me to get up and go lay down on the couch. I did it.

Today was the same thing. God told me to get up and go lay on the couch. I’m proud of myself because I never said a word. I allowed God to calm me down. These types of people……. you have to totally cut off. And so it shall be done. I got you!

 

 
I was going to do some writing, guess I’ll watch Flip or Flop until I fall asleep.

 

This boy Ed Bassmaster is a FOOL. LOL LOL LOL

Met Another Virgo……. From the Desk of Cree

hulk 2
If you’ve been following my blogs you’ll know my Town and Country was stolen the end of Feb from my apartment complex. I was very upset about this, but at the same time everything is in Gods control and there is nothing I can do about it. I’m okay.

A few weeks after that, I was looking into the parking lot from my window, when I noticed that the 24 hour security guy had the gate opened. Every time someone has to come through the gate, he has to push the button to let them in. Well, I was heated that it was open. I want that gate to be closed at all times. To go outside to your car and its not there is a terrible feeling, and I don’t wish that on anyone. So, I marched down stairs like I was the POLICE and asked him why did he have that gate open? He said “I have it open sometimes because its not a lot of traffic at night and I’m facing them anyway. I said … SO WHATS YOUR PUPOSE OF EVEN BEING HERE THEN? I said … my van was stolen on this shift and I feel that it should be closed and when someone pull up then you open it. I guess he saw that I was mad. LOL He was blunt and truthful too. He said.. if they wanted to steal a car in here, all they have to do is what they did to you. Come in through the gate, one on the passenger side and one driver. Pull up to the car and hop in it. He said all I can do is call the Police . I was so irritated when he said that… but he was telling the truth. I went up to my apartment and was on FIRE.

Through the night I had time to think about it , he was right. That’s what made me question myself and ask…. was I mad at what he said, or how to the point he said it? I guess my answer would be…. to the point. So, the next day as I was leaving the building, I wanted to make friends with him, because I was wrong, and he knew I was 15 seconds away from turning into the Incredible Hulk in that lobby. LOL This is how I approached him. I said… Wasn’t I mad at you last night and you still didn’t close the gate”? He laughed!!! HE said yes… all I was doing was telling you that if they wanted to steal a car they’ll get it anyway. He said I’m right here watching the gate and cameras, and still all I could physically do is call the Police. Once he started talking, and I listened…. I knew it was something about him that reminded me of MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.. I asked him…. when is your birthday? He said Sep 6. I knew it.. I knew it.. He’s a VIRGO just like me. He said yess, people get mad because I’ll tell the truth. I couldn’t do anything but laugh. Now he’s my boy. LOL

Yesterday I call my self chatting with him for a few minutes before I went to my apartment, even though I had groceries in my hands. Whew Chile…. he can GO!!! Baaaaaby I thought my ice cream was never going to make it to the freezer. LOL It never fails… whenever I meet a MALE VIRGO.. we always get into it. Never fails. Then once we start to talking and understanding each other …. we find out that were so much alike.

I still think the MEN are crazy… the women are SWEET LOL

Oprah’s …The Life You Want Weekend”…. I won’t be there From the Desk of Cree

only me

 

I’m so disappointed!

I read that Oprah was coming to the Detroit area with guess, to speak at The Palace of Auburn Hills Friday Sep 12 and 13th. I didn’t know all the details of Oprah’s “The Life You Want Weekend”  but I WAS READY!!!

I went on line and BOOKED my hotel! I’ve stayed at this hotel at least a dozen times when I go to a Piston game and don’t feel like driving home. I knew that I had to book this hotel RIGHT AWAY before tickets went on sale. I booked for Thursday-Saturday. I was so excited and happy. I didn’t care who was going with me, if I had to go alone… that was fine with me.

Later on that day, I checked my email and put in the password to purchase tickets early before they went on sale to the general public. What happened next…. I THOUGHT MY FAMILY WAS GOING TO FIND ME DEAD IN MY APARTMENT FROM SHOCK!

Once to the ticket page, you can roll over your mouse to see the TICKET PRICES. And not only that… you get to see WHERE YOU’LL BE SITTING FOR THE PRICE . Now, I’m thinking okay, this is a 2 day event. tickets should be no more than $100.00. I paid $238.00 to see Maxwell, Jill Scott, Chrisette Michele, Robin Thick and comedian Guy Torey  … AND I’M STILL ON “CONCERT PUNISHMENT” FOR DOING THAT. As I rolled over the mouse, I was so SHOCKED AND SO OUTDONE by what I was seeing concerning TICKET PRICES.

Ticket prices: $99.00 to sit AT THE TIP TOP AT THE ROOF OF THE PALACE $199.00 , $299.00, $599.00 $999.00., as you make your way to the floor. LOOK AT THESE TICKET PRICES!!!! ARE YOU SERIOUS?

I sat at my desk and stared at the screen. There is NO WAY in the world… would I pay $199.00 to sit at THE TOP OF THE PALACE/ARENA TO SEE A N Y B O D Y!!! Even if I had $1000.00 I wouldn’t pay that to be in YOUR FACE!!!I’m still trying to figure out, what team of people would agree that these prices are ACCEPTABLE? Why aren’t tickets GENERAL ADMISSION… FIRST COME FIRST SERVED. No one can EVER explain to me why these tickets are so high. I guess this will turn in a conversation of “WHERE ARE YOU SITTING”? I am so pissed off about the thought process that went into this planning.
if you have money, or COME UP with the money to pay $1000.00 and $599.00 you receive a gift pack along with other goodies and A PHOTO. I’m guessing the money is in the photo and the “in your face” experience. But the people like me…. who really WANT to hear this word, HAVE TO SIT AT THE TOP OF THE PALACE with the heat, dust and screens everywhere to get the same experience as the others. Sorta reminds me of the MENTALITY OF FLYING FIRST CLASS: You pay more, get to sit in larger seats, get all of these extra AMENITIES, BUT IF THE PLANE GO DOWN. THEY ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL GO DOWN…… am I the only one who figured that out? *blank stare* *

 

I can hear some people saying right now.. ((((((wow))))))… .well if you want to “LIVE THE LIFE YOU WANT” then you would do what you have to do to BE THERE. Or, if you want to ” LIVE THE LIFE YOU WANT”… you shouldn’t put a dollar amount on your success. Well guess what? When Joyce Meyer, Creflo Dollar, or TD Jakes come to town, they don’t charge for their conferences. And they sure don’t charge by where you sit to see and hear them. For free conferences like those, that’s when you show your appreciation and you give offerings.

I’m really disappointed in Oprah this time. I was really looking forward to seeing her on this tour, but too bad I can’t afford to pay the high ticket price. I have to cancel my hotel reservation. That’s okay… ILL SEE HER ON JUDGEMENT DAY….FOR FREE

Change the atmosphere of that dysfunction …….. From the desk of Cree

phonephotriasing
Yesterday when I was in Meijer, I met these 2 lovely young ladies who was stacking salad and other items in that area. I was instantly connected to them because they were friendly and very helpful. Somehow we got on the subject of their mothers. One gurl moved here from Indiana and said she missed her mother so much. But the other gurl went on about how she felt her mom didn’t show her love at all growing up, and that when she have her baby she’ll show her baby much LOVE. So, I said… Let me ask you this: To your knowledge what have YOUR mother been through as a child? She said… my mother was poor, she went through a lot growing up. And after she had me, she got on drugs, couldn’t keep a job, she shared many things with us.
 
 
I told her sometimes after a woman has been though a lot, she doesn’t KNOW HOW to build a relationship with her children, she doesn’t KNOW HOW to love you like you should be loved. Sometimes a woman don’t know where to start with building a relationship with her children. She could be so hurt and so far gone IN HER DYSFUNCTION, that she doesn’t even recognize that she’s wrong even after hearing it all of her life. I said but do you have any children? She said I’m pregnant now. I told her, well this is YOUR chance and time to CHANGE THE CYCLE. Change the atmosphere, change the story, change your story with your mom. Do things YOUR way, be different, think different.
 
 
I told her, in NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO way am I saying that YOUR MOM was right. * she wasn’t* … but I AM saying since you cannot change that….. YOU must change the atmosphere of that dysfunction. I told her and when you do… don’t rub it in your mothers face how much better of a mother YOU ARE, because when you think you’ve done everything so perfect and different from your mom…. you daughter/son will get grown and TELL YOU how she/he felt YOU COULD HAVE DONE BETTER. She got it. I planted a seed. My work was done. Thank you Lord for placing me at the right place at the right time.

My Town & Country……..gone Crees Blog Entry

my baby
So, my van was found Thursday afternoon by the Detroit Police Department. I went to see it yesterday the damage was bad, they tore it up.
2002 creasy
 
 
When I first bought this van it was so clean it looked brand new. These clowns ripped the second and third row seats out to do their dirty work. My windshield was busted, they hit something and tore off the whole front bumper. The battery was hissing, and front passenger door opens not even half way. The hood wont close, the ignition was tore up and it was so dirty in the inside. The Spirit was gone away from my baby. I LOVED that Town & Country. I prayed and prayed and prayed for years and years and years for God to give me one. And I finally got it. It never gave me any problems, I drove it to Atlanta and back, plus around the city for a year before some GOONS came into my apartment complex and stole it. I’m just so outdone by this. Exactly two days later I got the call I’ve been waiting for… a job at Detroit Public Schools. All I could say at that time is GOD ARE YOU SERIOUS? I’m glad I was honest to them about my situation, so hopefully soon I can come up with something, so that I can start back working. I’ve never had this to happen to me before, its a feeling of being raped. I couldn’t even sit in my van or even touch it. This is just so sad for me.
In my mind, I was making all kinds of “movies” about what I could do to those GOONS. This morning when I woke up, those thoughts were the first thing on my mind. Then I thought to myself… LaCrease you can really be mean. Find a way to get rid of the anger. I am still very upset and angry at these guys. I thought I had forgiven them, until I went to see the damage they did to a van that had NO ISSUES.
Another thing I keep thinking about is this: Job 2:6 6 The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, he is in your hands; but you must spare his life.”
 
 
The reason why I kept thinking about that was because for a year and 9 months, I’ve been catching it, and that Scripture reminds me that everything Job went though.. it had to pass through the DESK OF GOD FOR APPROVAL. God knew everything Job was going through before he went through it… and he passed. This is why no matter what…… I have to stay strong and know my help is on the way.
 
 
Be Blessed!

Rants, Vents, and Ramblings Crees Blog Entry

aunt-esther.thumbnail
Hey,
 
I guess this would be a blog of my rants and rambling.
 
So Beyonce tweeted and posted on her FB page the remix Kanye did….. Drunk In Love. Its so beyond pitiful, that it makes me question the sanity of these people. Who are these people around everyday? Where are the friends who sit you down and talk you out of POSTING THIS KINDA MESS? What person would AMEN their friend to let a NOTHING like Kanye come into the picture and “turn out” YOUR already questionable/private ??? song as is? Who in their right mind would say to their friend…. “gurl yeah you should post and Amen this remix, it sounds good”.
 
 
Now let me make this CLEAR. I know I can be very opinionated, but that has nothing to do with the LOVE and Admiration I have for people. Yes, I enjoy Beyonce’s music… and will continue…. but I have a serious problem with the mentality of her right now. The lyrics that came out of his mouth is DISRESPECFUL AND UNACCEPTABLE. Of course Beyonce didn’t write it.. but she allowed the remix and to me that’s “lost behavior” DISRESEPECTFUL!!!! Its just as bad.
 
 
Reminds me about Tyler Perry. Everyone knows I love and admire him dearly. But when I saw Madea in*AMC* mentioning “Glee” and making Nene Leakes feel important with all the BS shes starts.
The bragging she does, the way she puts people down, the side ways talking , sneak dissing and laughing to make herself look good ….. YES I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THIS. Then Madea went outside the department store and bust a Kenya Moore “Gone with the Wind Twirl”…. I JUST CAN’T…… NOT ONE SECOND… I CAN’T. This is why these women act the way they do. As long as they see “someone they admire” repeat, shout out, copy, reference the BS they do….. then they will ASSUME its acceptable and then continue to behave this way. That’s not funny to me. This is why people continue to behave the way they do.. when people “OF INFLUENCE” AMEN THEIR BEHAVIOR. I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT!!! A HUGE PROBLEM.
 
 
I live in a building where they’re lots of older people who had been here for years and years. There are also lots of students from Wayne State University… mostly Indians. Nice people too. Its this one older black guy who talks too much. As soon as he sees people * his audience* he just talks talks and talks. He loves to side talk people, and I noticed something else about him. You can tell that once upon a time in his life, he was a person of great influence. Not only is he good looking now, but you can tell he was THE BOMB back in the day. Seems like every time I leaving the building or coming in, we cross paths in the lobby or elevator. I just don’t like the slick talk he does, and the smart mouth he has. His friends may not catch on to it, but I do. I know this, because he tried to slick talk me one day. When he’s been drinking, he wants all the “sun” ( attention) on him, and will make sure that he goes out of his way, to get the person who IS NOT PAYING ONE CENT TO HIM. THAT WOULD BE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
 
 
I kept saying to myself, its something about him that makes him feel “some kinda way” about HIMSELF. Well, as the summer came and I was seeing him more in the lobby. I heard him talking to some other guys about how he use to own several business, had lots of women, did drugs, had lots of money, drove the best cars. I knew it…………. because he spoke with arrogance and POWER every time he opened his mouth. I can tell that the person he use to be, he wish he still was, and he wants others to KNOW his history. Now I know why he acts this way. Wow, if you keep on listening you will learn a lot from people.
 
 
So………. TODAY .. as I was going downstairs to the convenient store, he got on the elevator on the 3rd floor* … I was already on with another guy. When he first saw me BEFORE he could talk slick…… I GAVE HIM MY ESTER LOOK LaWanda-Page-as-Esther
 … LOL LOL LOL I SWEAR he bought his self down 9 notches. As I look back on it… its funny. I don’t play that side talking, slick mess. I don’t care what you owned, what you bought, what kind of car you drove, how many pretty women you’ve been with, how much money you made…. BRING THAT ARROGANCE DOWN WHEN YOURE TALKING TO ME… I’m not your audience member…….BOO! * rolls eyes for 40 minutes straight before opening them*
 
 
BE BLESSED

Who really has the Power? Crees Blog Entry

Real-Housewives-of-Atlanta-Official-Cast-Photo-SFTA
I realized that I’m REAL QUICK to tell somebody….. if someone on your Facebook page is negative and post attention seeking stats….. to delete them or ignore their post.
 
 
But when it comes to RHOA Nene Leakes and Kenya Moore…. I can’t seem to follow my own advice….. to stop watching the show.
 
 
After this past Sunday’s episode…. my blood was boiling, and all I could do was walk around my apartment, to try and understand “what type of people are these women”? I can EASILY SIT HERE AND SAY… you know what.. that’s them! This is how they are, this has nothing to do with me, I’m going to HEAVEN.. what they do is on them. I could sit here and say….I don’t care what comes out of their mouth…. they’ll have to pay the consequences for being MEAN GURLS. And when things start to fall apart for them…. they did it to themselves.
 
 
But I don’t want to feel that way. I care too much. So, I asked myself why? 
 
 
For me…. when I see these BEAUTIFUL, SUCCESSFUL, BLACK WOMEN with their OWN TV show… IN MY MIND…. they’re suppose to represent just who they are. I HATE to see them gossiping, disrespecting each others marriages and relationships. A few of them are so insecure that they PRIDE themselves on learning and studying “damaging information” on their cast mates….anything to look better. Its so sickening and sad.
RHOA-Season-6-Screenshots-7
 
 
But here is my biggest issue. These women not only have the PODUIM AND STAGE to uplift themselves and others, but they have the POWER to show the world God. I know not everyone will get on TV and do that…. but here is what I DO KNOW. If they continue to get on TV to disrespect themselves and others instead of uplifting and motivating……… where they show out on STAGE ( TV, Media) WILL BE WHERE GOD SHOW THEM…………..WHO REALLY HAS THE POWER. That day is coming. I see it. One by one.
 
 
My prayer is that someone will pull them to the side and talk to them.
 
 
BE BLESSED

Inside the crazy mind of Ms. Walker

babies in shapes
A mother and father finds out that they’re expecting a baby
 
everyone is excited
 
they call up everyone and tell them of the good news
 
later on in the pregnancy they  find out what sex the baby is
 
the baby moves for the first time… and its pure excitement
 
a baby shower is planned
 
gifts are bought, food is served, games are played
 
the labor begins
 
lots of pain
 
the baby is born and the pain is no longer remembered
 
the first eye to contact with baby and parents are breath taking
 
they promise to love and protect the baby
 
 
 
Now, I could go on and on with the stages of life… but I’ll stop here for a reason. How does a mother and father go through these stages but someplace between the beginning and the growing years, they grow up to be disrespectful, killers, thieves and other things that are NOT good. I just sit back and wonder….WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT HAPPENED? I just don’t get it.
 
 
Be Blessed

Offended turned Correction………..Crees Blog Entry

skort dress

I remember when I first started going to my Church, Second Ebenezer. I would sit in the back because I was new and didn’t want to be seen or heard. I never imagined myself sitting in the front rows, to me it seemed as if you were there longer…. that was YOUR spot. At my Church you could “come as you are” and that was one of the main reasons for me joining at that time in my life. I didn’t have a wide selection of dress clothes, and the little I had, I could mix them up with dress pants, and jeans.

 

As time went on I became comfortable, and started sitting in the first 5 rows every Sunday. One day I wore a dressy skort. It was my favorite outfit. But one of the older ladies of the church came over to me and placed a lap scarf over my legs with a smile, and walked away. I WAS SO OFFENDED. Not to mention EMBARRASSED. In order for her to come over to place the scarf over MY leg, SHE must have felt that my skort was too short. Boy was I on fire in that service.

DSCN1523

After service, I never mentioned it, I just went home. But it stayed on my mind. I couldn’t shake the feeling that she did that. I knew that if I called and told several of my friends what had happened, they would tell me that she was out of order, that she was wrong, that I shouldn’t go back there again, that I should have confronted her about it. But I’m not the type of person who will call my Sisters or Friends and say… “Let me tell you what this lady did to me “. I go to God… all the time. Because what I found out in doing that is…..friends will tell me what seem right to THEM. Maybe a few of them would ask to see the skort, and say…. yeah maybe that is too short. We tend to ask people just to hear “their opinion” when in reality, our mind is already made it that we were “offended”. There’s nothing else to be said, nothing to be discussed. I felt offended…. and that’s final.

 

It stayed on my MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIND…. yes it did. Every time I went to Church and saw that woman… it was on my mind. I never got an answer from God at that time when I felt that way. But he surely reminded me of it when it was my time to “get it”. As time went on ( been there for 20 years now) I started to build my wardrobe. For some reason I didn’t want to wear jeans any more. My mentality had changed in the way I dressed. I was very conscience of the way this woman of God carried herself. I cared about the way I dressed in the house of the Lord. I knew better, and I did better. I would see women coming in church with their cleavage showing, with short dresses and skirts. And I remember thinking…. wow.. people come to the house of the Lord…. any old kinda way. THEN, God bought back to MY remembrance, of when I was wearing my short skort…. I didn’t think it was too short. But as you leave the MILK… and start eating solid food… you see things totally different than you did before. God had answered my question. I had every reason to be offended… when I didn’t know any better. When I knew better, and dressed better, and respected the way I felt about myself….. I understood. That lady wasn’t trying to hurt my feelings or offend me ….. she helped me. I would never in my life wear that skort again. Never ever. It was so short. I wouldn’t even wear it outside. I’m not a person who care if someone likes my shoes or boots. My clothes or anything that I wear. BUT I DO CARE if someone says… your dress, skirt or skort is too short. As a woman of God.. that would be something , that I TAKE CARE OF ON THE SPOT … EVEN IF I FELT DIFFERENTLY. I don’t want men staring at me, or coming on to me because of the way I dress. I don’t want my breast hanging out, or cleavage showing. I don’t want my behind showing, and I want to be covered up.

 

What I learned in this Life Lesson that I’ll never forget is that… there are some things in the house of the Lord that YOU JUST DONT DO when you know better. IF……. you know better. Ask God to show you if you’re wrong about being “offended”. I was use to dressing the way ” I wanted” and felt that I was in the house of the Lord. I came to hear the word not to be judged. No one had any BUSINESS to correct the way I dressed.

 

Seasoned Christians know better. Babes in Christ….. will have to learn.

New Living Translation 1 Corinthians 3:2
I had to feed you with milk, not with solid food, because you weren’t ready for anything stronger. And you still aren’t ready,

*photo with friends is the skort I wore to Church*
*photo above is how I looked at the lady when she places the scarf over my legs*
