Dear MEM, Your Name Part II

....... Part I

Dear MEM, 

I know you are looking at me weird because I just yelled at you to not say your name. I just panicked, ok! See, I can't know you name. Because if I did, then that would make this real. I would Google you, because I would want to know things. You would start asking me whats my favorite this and that, or trying to friend me on social media and THAT MY DEAR will NOT happen! You have to stay the stranger on the elevator,and  I have to stay the unaccredited counselor. So I will call you Mr. Elevator Man. Which is why I'm laughing now, because you have NO idea there is a whole blog that was started about our encounters and now I am officially saying it out loud. I don't really like Miss Elevator Girl, but I'll let it go for the time. Kind of sounds like we are dating so I will change it to Noble Counselor. Yeah, I like that better. You seem to be feeling weird because of the no name exchange, but if I knew your name; I probably wouldn't talk to you anymore. People already give me the side eye when I tell them about us, so I feel the less I know, the better. I really wish I could stop you and I "us" but I'm caught up in this madness as much as you are. So go into 2014 with an open heart and clear mind.

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...
