Almost that time...

Why is it that no matter how old you become, ur parents (esplly ur
mother) have a way of making you feel like a kid again? I mean it is so
weird to me that I am approaching 34 in 3 days and my Mother still
treats me like a child. Not to mention how she talks to
me...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I just want to scream at the top of my lungs
sometimes.
We live in the same house (well its my sisters house...don't ask) and I
try my best to stay out of her way. I know that the person I am and the
way I think sets her off, so I mind my own business. But then there are
times when she will need me to do something for her or with her, and no
matter how hard I try to make things smooth; I can't seem to do/say
anything right.

Take tonight for instance. I have been gone from my first apt which has
gone condo since october of last year. And since that time I have moved
not once...not twice...but three times. Now keep that in mind ur gonna
need that info later. My oldest nephew was taking out the trash and when
he returned, we find there are no more big garbage bags left. So my
Mother says to me "where are those big black bags u bought from walmart
that time?" Now I'm thinking to myself what time is she talking about. I
don't remember buying any bags so I say "I didn't buy any black bags
ma..." She starts yelling at me which makes me upset. Then out of
nowhere she says "I'm talking about the bags u bought when u moved..."
and I go "moved from where?" and you know what she said.... "when you
moved from 81st street!" Folks 81st street was my 1st moved I told you
about last year...how the heck would I know where those bags were
now?!?!

I aksed her to stop yelling at me about things I don't remember and she
goes off even further. Its a no win situation I think. Because on one
hand I would never yell at my Mother, but on the other hand I hate it to
no end when she does and I feel like screaming everytime.

When all is said and done I wind up feeling bad and losing sleep. I hate
confrontations disputes, strife or battles of any kind. I really do. And
everytime we do it makes me think about all the other hurts in my life.
I hate feeling like this. I quit....


Until we read again...

i can totally relate. my mom and i butt heads a lot and it doesn't get any easier with age. i think the key is to try to become more understanding and to learn to ignore her. try to not let it get to you. easier said than done, i know. good luck. i'm sure it'll all end up being fine

Lifestyles Conversation...Take 1(Clack!)

Okay so while me and a few of my co~workers were in the breakroom early this morning, I began to tell them about this board game I bought. In this game there is a part where you have to tell the truth about whatever the next player ask you...it's sort of like "Truth or Dare"... but with a twist...and it's for grown folks...okayyyyy! Well One of the cards you can play is called "Lunch with the girls!" and it has several different open~ended questions on it. For instance one card might say: How do you... and then you have to fill in the blank...with whatever comes to your mind first, but it has to be something real true and honest. Well we played a bit of it during our break and let me tell you...them folks I work with are NASTY YA'LL! *LOL* They had me rolling...but it was all in good fun. I decided to do one and post it. Now I won't tag anyone to do one of their own, but I will encourage you to. It's a fun way of revealing just a little bi...

Okay so like the day before Thanksgiving my girl Belle (we call her that cause she loves to read books like Belle from Beauty and the Beast...plus she sings everything!) Anyway, she called me and told me she was going to her company's Pre~Thanksgiving party and she needed to borrow some really trendy shoes to complete the outfit wearing. Well this is how she said it ..."Danni, can I use a pair of your shoes to go with these new jeans I'm wearing to my jobs party tonight?" No class at all folks! Anyway, at first I was like (in the back of my mind) Hell Naw you can't use a pair of my shoes! Are you crazy? But then I sorta felt sorry for her and her new pair of jeans...I mean they deserve to be the hit of the party right? And what way to do that then with a fabulous pair of shoes. So I reluctantly said yes and asked her to describe her outfit to me so that I could pick just the right pair. She told me she was wearing this Seafoam green and Pink silk blouse and of co...
