Let It Snow!

Well not really because I don't want to be stuck in the house. Anywho HAPPY MONDAY!!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday. We welcomed a new baby into the world and celebrated family. I stayed in Atlanta, but I will be hitting the road back to Decatur for Christmas. I miss my family like no other. Thank God for Skype because I was able to see their smiling faces. For those of you that hit the stores on Black Friday ...... glad to see you may it out alive. I also want to say RIP to Paul Walker. SMH. I was so shocked and hurt. I love his movies.

So I finally got my tree up ....... I think we did a good job for our first tree!

 

Although we forgot lights, everything on our tree came from The Dollar Tree. Our Tree came from Wal-Mart for $20, which wasn't bad at all. I didn't want to get a huge tree because I really didn't have that much room in my living room with all my furniture. If you get ornaments from The Dollar Tree, be sure to place them on something or you will have glitter everywhere. Overall I love it! I have enjoyed seeing everyone's Christmas tree picture on IG. Send me yours! I'll post it!

Until next time .....

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 ...

Dear MCM, I am a Husband

My girlfriend and I have been dating for 3 years. Recently we started talking about moving in together and I brought up marriage. She brushed off the question and I really paid it no mind. As we started going to look at rental places, I wanted more rooms than she and when she asked me why I brought up future kids and marriage. She laughed at me and said who said I was going to marry you. Honestly this took me back and hurt my feelings. I guess she noticed it and tried to "please" me later that night. Yes it was great sex, but I was still mad about what she said. This is her way of "hoping I don't bring it up again." We were deciding on what place to pick and I asked her what did she think about getting married in the next year or so. We both are stable, great jobs and in our early 30s. She said she doesn't know if she wants to marry me. I asked her why and she couldn't give me an explanation. I thought about it over the weekend and that following Mon...

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...
