Not even 24hrs in and I totally bailed on the Master Cleanse. *shrug* I feel bad because I got Mare to do it and she’s been sticking with it. Doesn’t help that my son said I was no longer his hero! I know he was joking but still. *LoL* However, I did pack my gym bag and have been drinking water since I woke up! I even wore a dress today! Yep! I’m determined to feel good so that I can motivate myself to get in that gym regularly! I have a damn cruise in Sept! I need to look and feel AWESOME! I really need to start using my tripod *adds that to list*.

Boss is out this week so there are some things I’m going to work on getting done. Some minor goals I’ve set. One being getting my ass to the doctor for a physical! Doing that tomorrow. I’m actually considering taking tomorrow off so I can knock out most of these errands but I’m not sure. We’ll see. I’m also getting shit done around here (work) too. Yeah, there will be no playing while the boss is away! Besides I’m tired of going home and thinking about what needs to be done here. Not to mention Ann Marie just sent me the calendar for the next two months….whoa! momma! Can you say hella busy? Concerts out da ass! There’s no way my mind can be preoccupied with all this other mess! Nope.

On that note, I’m out! Have a great week!

Thank you Nicky & AriesRamGirl for your comments on my previous post.

The other day I posted my feelings regarding my son’s upcoming graduation. Well he graduated Thursday, 6/25 and I gotta tell ya that that boy done frustrated me down to the very last minute BEFORE he was due in that church! Man, oh man! I wanted to beat him, but I didn’t! I kept calm and refused to let anything he did get to me. It was his day and I was going to let him be as late and unprepared as he wanted to be.

To be honest the day started off mellow. I went to work, left early (too early actually), got home, napped, showered, dressed & off I went. We arrived at the church on time until he decided he wanted to pick up a friend. Fine. Had a mini spat with a friend who wasn’t feeling my mood that day and that’s fine too. Took pics and had a great dinner with family!

Despite my mood that day, my previous post or any ill feelings I may have expressed to anyone, I’m EXTREMELY PROUD of my son!

Anyways, on to my weekend. Not that I remember much of it right now other than my trip to Philly. I decided last week that I needed a me day. Just me, my iPod, the car and the road! At the last minute I called a few friends to see if they wanted to come but no one was available and that was cool. I was good on my own. I did get to meet ms. @dopegirlfresh once I got there and that was cool. Definitely going back!

Yesterday, I was supposed to go see Ledisi at Central Park Summerstage but some stuff came up and that didn’t happen. Later in the evening a friend invited me out to a movie. He was driving so I said fuck it why not. That’s not really what I said. *LoL* But hey I didn’t lose my parking! Yay! Got there and that joint was pizzzzacked! We ended up, rather I ended up having dinner while he watched. Good times. LOL Came home, made my lemonade and hit the sack.

Oh, yeah I’m doing the master cleanse again. We’ll see how many days I last this time around. I caved the last time by day 6. This time I kinda set myself up considering the fourth of July is around the corner. Pray for me.

*LoL* @ my title…

Da Teen graduates high school tomorrow. I must say this last year of school has been the hardest, most challenging, most frustrating year ever for us both. At the beginning of his high school career we never thought it would end this way. The feelings of excitement and pride are not there for me. Instead I’m sad, disappointed even. Hurts to type that. But I can’t help but go over it, this whole year, in my head again and again wondering where did I go wrong?

Am I looking forward to this next chapter in our lives, not so much. Simply because I’m not sure, rather he’s not sure what he wants, what his next step will be. Me, I know exactly what I’d like him to do and how he should do it but in his mind my plans are all wrong. So I’ll take a step back let him learn what life is about and do what mommy’s do best — listen & try to catch them when & if they fall.

In the end I’m just grateful that he graduated.
