As of now I'm taking my lunch break at my desk...at work...::sigh:: I mean, who feels like spending money on food you have to pay someone else to make for you when I can make it myself...maybe..."What on the menu today?" you ask? Well, today: Healthy Choice Slow Roasted Turkey, mashed potatoes, and mixed vegetables; Yoplait Light blackberry yogurt, and about 3 slices of cucumbers with fat free ceasar dressing. Yummy! I intended on eating more cucumbers, but I'm full. How many people can say that they've had all their vegatable servings before 1:00pm? Believe me, it's not the norm. I normally struggle to get in veggies and fruits. I don't have that problem with starches though. Anyway, I've rambled enough.
I really wanted to talk about the WONDERFUL wedding I went to this past weekend. Tiffany and Chris got married this weekend and it was really nice. It was good to see people that I hadn't seen in years. Why in the world does everybody look so skinny now? I think I missed that memo. I thought that when you got married, you got fat! I mean, that's what happened to me! Cruel world...Anyway, yeah, everyone's all skinny now. I mean, I've lost 10 pounds, but obviously that wasn't enough. Needless to say, everyone looked good...and happy, so that's a plus. I had the honor of singing with Christina, Jermaine, and BP on the praise team for Tip's wedding (Lamar was on the keys). Yeah, Tip went gansta and had a praise team at her wedding. I think we did ok. I've definitely done better before, but it definitely wasn't too much. People weren't falling out in the floor and confessing what they must do to be saved, but I believe God was still glorified. I also did makeup and was a hostess for the event, so I wore many hats that day. Let's just say that by the end of the night, I stole some roses to use for later on (wink, wink)...they still in the bag somewhere. I was KNOCKED OUT. Besides there only so much you can do with your husband sharing a room with your daughter. LOL...such is life... Anyway the bride was BEAUTIFUL! She was graceful...and boy was she ready! Not an ounce of nervousness in her, which is a good thing. Oh, did I mention that Nyelah was one of the flowergirls? My big girl did such a good job, and she looked good doing it. Come on now, you know I'm not gonna have my child looking any kind of way. Her dress was cute, even though it wasn't the one Tip picked out for the wedding. David's Bridal supposedly didn't keep any white and apple dresses in ANY store in America. It would've taken a supposed 12 weeks to get here. Needless to say, it was $99! $99! What in the world?! So, we got her dress online for $68, and it worked out well.
After the wedding, we went to my mom's to visit and got a chance to meet my 2 new cousins from Africa (my Aunt Lillian and Uncle Lin adopted them). I think they are about 5 and 6. Really great kids! We they left, we all talked about old times and my mom's constant drama in my family...LONG STORY. We left my mom's and went to my mother-in-law's in NOVA for Labor Day. That was nice, except for the fact that I was in a real ill mood and I still don't know why. I think Jeffrey made me upset in the car or something like that. It's amazing how when you're married, things set you off so fast, and then you forget them when someone asks you about it later. Who knows? Obviously I don't.
Anyway, I really don't have much to say...what I've said was a gracious plenty. I'm tired, too, by the way. I'd really like to take a nap; however, since I have choir rehearsal tonight, that probably won't happen. Until next time, blessed people.
