Leaving My Crutches

Today I officially leave the corporate working world. LAWDDDD HELP ME!!! I went back and forth on whether I wanted to share this with others or not, and said hell why not! I'm not sharing er'thang - but - I can give you a little bit umkay!! 

First let's get into this BEAT! That lash got my eye looking a little like it's off that purp but thats neither here nor there. :) I'm also really starting to embrace these big ass eyes of mine. BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT THIS POST IS ABOUT ...

So today is my last day at my current job. I am leaving because my fiance started a business as well as helping with other people visions as well. No lie - a bih nervous as hell - but I am excited as shit! People at work have been asking me how I prepared myself to leave and truth be told I don't know how I did it. You want to plan everything and make sure everything is in place before you leave - but sometimes it doesn't happen that way. I was pushed into having to resign. LITERALLY I was getting no sleep from coming to work from 730-430 to going home and helping my fiance until 2 or 3am - to doing other things LIKE PLAN A DAMN WEDDING ... until one day I literally cried all the way to work because I was so tired but I knew I had to go in. Also it was the only way I knew I wouldn't fall asleep at the wheel and die umkay!! You can sing Jesus take the wheel all you want but yo ass gone end up in the tree with the Mobile leprechaun if you try to nap and drive. 



I'm used to getting paid on the 1st and 15th of each month. Those are my crutches. I never have to worry about when money is coming or how much because - I'm salaried and I ALWAYS get paid twice a month. So when you rip those away from up under you .... shit gets real scary ... but that is not my fear. Failure is not my fear. I have failed at a few things in life - like being a college drop out, my tennis career I never started, being tall, one time I tried to make turnovers and that was a BIG fail - so I'm not afraid of that. Success is what I am afraid of. LOL. BISH WHET!!! Yes, I am afraid of success. I honestly think a lot of us are. My job has already stated I can come back - low key I'm counting the months until I will be back. Ain't that ass backwards? I feel like what if I succeed, then what? What is the next step? How do I keep this going? OMG I HAVE TO LEAVE MY JOB?? Yes girl, you have to leave your job. But what about my bills!! Girl you have bill money ... But But But what about my nail appointments .. girl you have nail appointment money ... but .... And I'm out of buts - well other than the one I'm sitting on - because everything is covered. I have no other excuse any more on how/when/why I am going to fail at this. 

So before this post gets any longer .. lets chop this shit up real quick like umkay!

1. I enjoyed my job - it was stressful at times - but the team made it better on days. I have some great long term friends
2. Do It! Just Do It. #nonike You can plan and plan and plan ... but WORK YOUR PLAN
3. I still don't love these hoes but whatever 
4. I'm blogging and vlogging more so get ready for these reader letter hunny ummkkay!!
5. The hardest thing to do was leave my job, but I knew I had too. Don't be out here in these street, homeless, but you decided you want to start a tshirt line and quit your job today with no COINT in the bank. Chile ..... 
6. In the last month I have heard/known/saw a total of 6 people pass away suddenly. Live now. Stress Less and Live More. Take chances!! I feel like my 20s I'm suppose to BOMB, my 30's is what I become a "real adult" and my 40's is when my fiances are fully where they should be, business where it should be, and I am breathing easy from the hard work I've already put in. It's always when I'm getting these breast chopped down but whatever. 

Whats the point in having a dream, if you are never going to wake up to live it ....

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

Who's Cooking Nah?

Who started this cooking for your man is something that only wives do and not girlfriends? Do ya'll smoke crack? I'm convenience you early-mid 20 somethings smoke crack. I've seen a meme rolling around social media where the man says he wants to see his girl like this (she's cooking in underwear ... which leads to a whole 'notha story. Like I hope she not frying NATHAN!! Because baby bout to get burnt up trying to be cute.) and the girl replies "this is wife level package, you can upgrade your girlfriend package by buying a ring. 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! Like you gone be eating Applebee's happy hour on the 4th day! AAANNDDDD ain't NOBODY trying to take yo bap ass out to eat EVERYDAY. Hoe I got bills to pay! Say it with me now ... I'mmmm oooonnnn aaaaaaa bbbuuuddddggggeeettt!!!
