Young and the Reckless

It's super gloomy here in the ATL so why not get a few dumb young people together shall we :)

Yesterday I got an email from a girl asking me about birth control. This lead to a HOST of emotions I began to feel. For one, I got on birth control because I KNEW in my spirit someone would spike my drink at a college party, rape me, and now I have a rap baby. (I'm being real, I hope I don't offend anyone). Now I KNOW I would not be able to deal with that, so pop 1 pop 2 ... birth control here we come.

Now my birth control had me up and down, and very much up on the weight scale. I gained A LOT. No one ever tells you about all the shit inside those little pills that spot birth. I even had one pill that gave me EVERY SINGLE pregnancy system. I threw that shit at my doctor the next visit. Do you know how many pregnancy test you can buy in 10 weeks pass your cycle day? A LOT! Chile .. the lady at CVS was so confused when I was buying tampons and pee test. LOL.

This all leads to me saying, why don't you young people want to protect yourselves more and why are you rushing to settle? But girl, they tell me , we been together for like 2 years and I'm ready to get married and have kids. MEANWHILE you NOR the person you are dating can combine you income to not live on section 8. You want kids, but your parents are still paying ALL your bills. And BEFORE YOU SAY IT ... cellphone bills ain't shat! Half of you'll got Terrible mobile and they will let you be late 8 months before they stop you from calling out.

Don't want a kid because they are cute. Because you are already struggling and you want to bring a baby in this world? Look at your neighbor and say neighbor ..... these young couples dumb. I have lived with my boyfriend many of years and I just recently started to like him enough to see marriage in our future. No like for real for real. You have so many hurdles to over come before you can even get to married that some of you don't seem to understand. Let's not even talk about how you have to adjust financially. You THINK he paying for all those nice dinners and vacations. NO NO NO honey! It's time to compromise on some things. This here here dinner is coming out of OUR account. If you even make it to the part where there is your money, their money, and ya'll monies!!!

This post is getting long so let me just chop it up in a few points umkay!
1. You don't want anything rushed. Take your time. Live on your own before you EVER move in with someone you date. Know that you can do it on your own income. Don't have it where you have to have their portion of the rent to make it to next month.
2.You want a kid? Let's try keeping a family members for a week. I mean new one. Not one of those old ass babies. Get a fresh 5 month old. Pass that test and we can talk.
3. Stop getting on birth control because of man. Let it be your own choice. EVEN WHEN YOU DO get on birth control ... he needs to wear a condom. STD'S are alive and well ..uuuummmmkkkkkaayyyy!!!

Check On Your Friends

So I had this whole blog written out in the shower about 30 minutes ago. For some strange reason I have been staring at this screen for 10 minutes with nothing to type. First let's talk about me, then we'll talk about you. Many of you do not follow me on social media but I am currently 37 weeks pregnant, still married, with a 20 month old. This second baby was NOT planned and honestly threw me into a world wind of emotions from day one when I found out. You can really prepare everything you need/want for your baby but still not be mentally ready. I, for one, am just now starting to get there. For the past few months I have been struggling with depression. I mean it was really bad. I didn't talk about it with anyone because honestly I did not want to hear any of the following : 1. You need to just go to church and pray about it. - FYI mental health is not something your pastor can scripture away. 2. You aren't the first person to have two babies back to back. - I

If It Were You, Would You Be Proud

I don't really know how to start this post, but ya'll rock with me so just let me have a moment. I love to blog but I am having time management issues with everything going on in my life. It doesn't make me money so it kind of goes on the back burner even though I love to do it. My small home town had a double homicide yesterday. I'm not listing names or locations because I respect the privacy of everyone in that situation. With a sad heart, my mind began to race with thoughts of "if this happened to me, have I lived the life I wanted?" Because it can happened to any of us. I live in Stone Mountain, GA and although my block is very quiet, little to no children on the block, just a few weeks ago my husband and I came home to a road full with police, fire department trucks, ambulance vans and cars everywhere. We still don't know what happened down there. I work for myself. My husband and I started a few businesses together and each of them has there se

He couldn't be me. STARVE THEN BIH! Listen .... follow me umkay? 1. NONE OF YA'LL (me included) makes enough money to eat at a restaurant everyday where the food is that damn bomb!
