The green tea thing yeah naw it didn’t work. I’m still Ms. Dry ass scalp but maybe I have to do the tea thing more than once. Yeah I’ll give it another shot.

Dollface is sweet as ever for those of you who asked about her. She’s starting her extracurricular classes again now that I’m able to actively take her to and from. So it’s swimming and African dance. Let’s just hope this dance class is much better than the last one.

I’ve been going to the mall every week now and let’s just say I haven’t been to an actual mall for well over 2 or 3 years because I couldn’t walk that far. It’s been so joyful to me eventhough I can’t afford a single freakin’ thing LOL. Just to be able to walk and look and enjoy is a blessing!! Dollface baby on the other hand is like next time can we actually shop? *I created that monster so I can’t say a word*

Why the hell was the last gas bill $385.00???

And why in the sam hell was gas $3.26 a gallon last week and damn near $4.00 a gallon this week? That shit ain’t right?

Shorty Boss is dating y’all!! Whoo hoo!! I’m sooooo happy for her and dude was “The Guy” AGAIN for like 2 weeks then he had a name LOL!!! I love my friend, she’s a freakin’ nut, just like me!

My mom is doing well and the funeral, oh hell the horror!!! Let’s just say big ass family secrets and funerals do not mix. Several folks walked out because it was a disgrace and a slap to my grandmother’s legacy. I couldn’t begin to explain, trust.

Homemade broccoli cheese soup is the mofokin’ bomb!!! I put my foot all up in that there!!

I want one of those cute little dogs again. So I better go grab the little dog purse, that’s right DOG SHAPED PURSE, Shorty Boss gave me last year and call it a day cause it ain’t going on for reals.

I need a job, man!!

Sweet potato pie oh yum!!

Current weight lost drumroll please…. 172 pounds!!!! OH HELLS YEAH!!!

***Edited to add I made an error on my weightloss. I recalculated and it’s 162 pounds. That’s still awesome as hell right!!!***

Random I tell ya!!

Ooh it’s almost St. Paddy’s day y’all. Aren’t you excited? Yeah me either but here in the Chi they makes a big deal out of it. I mean big parades and they even dye the river green too. Funny stuff. I had green beer once wayyyyy back in the 80’s. Hell I wasn’t even of drinking age, hanging out with my crazy ass high school Irish friends. Them girls was wild as hell boy!!

So I’m going to brew some green tea and wash my hair with it. They said on GMA that it will take away dandruff and every winter my hair gets soooo super dry and flakey. So I’m hoping this is going to do the trick.

I have been feeling so good these past few weeks and I’m on the go all the time now and that in itself is beyond awesome cause yall know how I was homebound like a mugg!! The weather is supposed to get cold again for the weekend but will gradually start to warm up early next week and I’ll be hittin’ the streets once again. I can’t stand this cold weather. A sista gotta wear 6 layers of clothes to be comfortable and that ain’t right LOL!!!

Still cooking and baking and lovin’ every minute of it. Did I mention I made Turkey a couple of weeks ago? Yeah probably did but you know I suffer from SAS (short attention span) and um can’t remember shit, so pardon me for repeating if I am, ya dig?? From that turkey I also made turkey soup and turkey pot pie and both were super delish and so yummy to my tummy!!! I tell you what though I can not make bread pudding to save my soul!! I tried this recipe from S.and.ra L.ee and baby yuck. I ate a teaspoon of it and threw that sucka in the garbage. Straight up nastiness, gives me shivers it was so gross!!! I’m mad I messed over my ingredients though cause that was 6 slices of raisin bread that could have been utilized in other ways ya know.

This weekend I’m trying out new cake recipes, all *Spl.enda* cause my burfday will be rolling around next month and ya gurl gots to have some cake for her burfday. Wish me luck and it’s a chocolate cake YUM!!!

I’m down 155lbs as of yesterday *Hey, Ho, Hey, Ho* and it feels incredible and I give all the glory to God because without Him it would not be possible. I am eternally grateful for the awesome gift He has given me and I’m loving my life again. The wound is almost closed, no more packing it. I’m just using bandages now which is soooo great!!

On a sad note though my mom’s sister passed yesterday which was totally unexpected and it happened so very quickly. She was suffering with pain but she was Chris.tian Scie.nce and she didn’t believe in doctors or hospitals and didn’t want to go when she had the intense pain but this past week it became too overwhelming and her son convinced her to go to the hospital. Once there they found three tumors in her body. The very next day they were transferring her to another hospital and she went into full cardiac arrest and never was revived. My mom is doing well with the news. I mean it happened so quickly that I don’t think she has had a chance to even accept the fact that she is gone. No plans have been finalized yet. Family members have to come from Vegas, Denver and Georgia so by tomorrow we should know something.

The one thing that I am really, really grateful for is that even though this Aunt didn’t believe in hospitals, she came with mom and stayed the entire day when I had my leg surgery in December. I loveded her for that man because I knew it was against her beliefs. When asked why she was doing it she said simply without fanfare or bickering, “You do what you gotta do.”

Big ups to my Auntie Burt, I love you lady and Rest In Peace!!
