The Goddess
Got milk?
Hey everyone! I hope everyone's weekend went well and didn't go as fast as mine did. Wouldn't it be nice if things were reversed and we only worked Saturday and Sunday and had Monday through Friday off but still got paid the same pay? How lovely would that be? I swear sometimes it feels like I go to sleep Sunday and when I wake up again it's Monday.
Yall, my tummy is hurting so bad. I went to Starbucks this morning cause I was craving a Vanilla Latte. I guess they have these new Skinny Lattes and I've been wanting to try one, but have been hesitant because I couldn't imagine them being too appetizing. So I pull up to the window to pay for my drink and the Oh so friendly woman at the window asks me if I want to sample a Mocha Skinny Latte. It always amazes me, especially early in the morning, how the people that work at Starbucks are ALWAYS so friendly and perky. It's almost sickening. But I guess I'd be perky too if I had an unlimited supply of coffee at my disposal. People would probably think I was looney. So anyway, since I've been wanting to try them and their giving samples I'm like 'what the hey, I'll try it.' BIG BIG mistake. I don't know what the HECK I was thinking. Actually I WASN'T thinking at all, that's the problem. Me and milk do NOT get along at all. We have this love hate relationship; I LOVE it and it HATES me and my digestive system. Lol. So thanks to that damn skinny latte, that was made with milk and not SOY milk, I'm doubled over in some serious pain right now. Damn Starbucks. Grrrr!!!!
Anyway, my weekend was pretty good. I woke up Saturday morning to my honey Hubby cooking me breakfast. He's not really one to cook so this was such a great surprise. I thought it was so sweet that he wanted to cook for me. I worked for a few hours on Saturday, so it was nice to be able to eat something before I left. He made waffles, cheese eggs and bacon. Awwww! And it tasted good too. Lol. And guess what else yall???? My husband also made dinner on Sunday. He found this recipe for this picante' chicken and decided that he was going to try his hand at making it with some Spanish rice and beans. It was SOOOO good. I was like "GO HUBBY!!!!" He looked so cute working in the kitchen. It was so nice to have a break from cooking, not to mention that he did such a fabulous job. I'm telling you I could really get used to this. He didn't believe that I liked it as much as I did with his silly self. He thinks I keep telling him how well he did because I want him to cook every Sunday. Not to say that I mind THAT idea, and did mention him doing that, but it really did taste great. So we'll see if this Sunday dinner thing continues. *Fingers Crossed* and toes.....
Of course we watched a few games this weekend. I was SO pissed that the Chargers beat the Colts. I'm not a huge fan, actually I don't care for them much at all, but I can't stand the Chargers so I'm not happy about this game at all. I was pleased about the Patriots win, and wasn't surprised at all. I'm pretty confident that they'll be superbowl champs. Although, shoot let me take that back cause I swear my teams ALWAYS F up in the superbowl without fail. So let me take that back. I'm not confident at all; nope not one little bit. And I'm not even going to talk about Dallas and T.O's drama queen ass. He really gets on my nerves, but WHATEVER!!!!
One day me and the hubby were scrolling through movies on On Demand and caught a preview for a Billy Blanks Tae bo video. It was only 15 minutes but we were up trying to get out Tae bo on. After about 15 minutes I was telling Hubby "Hmmmm, we can do this." Psh! Yeah right! Who was I kidding. We went out on Sunday and picked up one of his dvd's and damn if that thing didn't kill me. For an hour I was trying to keep up, but I was sweating, breathing like crazy, holding on to the wall for support and it just wasn't a pretty sight. I'm not even one that sweats a lot but I felt like I had been standing out in the pouring rain. After we finished the first hour he's talking about the next part is the Ultimate extreme workout. WHAT THE????? We're gonna have to get into the first hour and be able to keep up with that one before even attempting to tackle the 2nd half. That crap was no joke. I'm not discouraged though, yall are gonna just have to pray for me. LMAO.
It was cool though cause the kids were even doing it with us. My ol stankin teenager thinks he's just Mr. fitness all star and was talking about how easy it was. I'm like Yeah, if I was 16 I'd think the same thing but I think I did pretty good considering. The baby was trying to keep up for a minute then he sat down and started playing. You know a two year olds attention span will NOT allow for him to do the same activity for an hour, just not gonna happen.
Anyway, that was our weekend in a nutshell.
Everyone have a good week and I'll check in with yall later. Peace and Blessings.
That is such a fun activity you all took on! I would be falling over with
all that working out! Oy, I am so out of shape!
Get your family Tae-bo on! I think I'm all out of excuses for T.O. I kept
defending him, saying he's misunderstood, but the crying thing was just too
much for me. I got no answer for that one. You should sue Starbucks. LOL
gurl me and milk ain't friends either. but i drink it anyway and suffer
the consequences later. so... is soy milk good? i keep saying i'm gonna
try it but never do.
@ Gina: I would have been falling all over the place had I not had the
wall to support me. Lol I'm very out of shape too but I'm going to keep
at it. If yall don't hear from me anymore you know Tae bo killed me. LMAO
Case of the bubble guts huh? Too bad girl. You know I've never tried
Starbucks before cuz people say it's like crack.
LMAO at the Tae Bo Visions swirling in my head...hehe... I tried Tae Bo,
umm...ONCE. Have no idea where that stinkin DVD went. Might be a
coaster... Anywho, go you! I applaud your whole family for getting up and
trying it, it's definatly a work out. I'm just too lazy...
@ Kasandra: LMAO. It IS like crack, which is why I want some more today
SOOOOO bad. I'm about to go get my tae bo on now since my little terror is
still asleep.
Hey Lady! Happy New Year to you! Glad to see everything seems to be going
well for you. Well I'm back now :) I'll send you an email.
@ Newy: Hey Girly, it's SO good to see you back. Hooray!!! I'll look for
that e-mail. Happy New Year to you Sis.
Girl, I know how you feel with the milk!! I can only eat it with cereal,
and even then I have to be careful cuz that ish will sneak up on me *if you
know what I'm sayin*. I'm a hardcore Giants fan, so seeing T.O.'s cryin azz
made my weekend!!
@ Tasha: I hope you're feeling better.
I actually had last weekend of and it went far too quickly,but it was nice
anyways!I'm sorry to hear about your tummy.Good for The God and his
generous ways,I'll cross my fingers that you will have Sunday dinner cooked
for you this weekend and the following weekends.
@ Ang: I'm glad you had a good weekend.
sorry bout that lactose intolerant crap but u really should have known
betta
lol @ the tae bo workout. that shit aint no joke
@ Dejanae: You're right, I should have known better with my greedy butt.
Lol Imma get my taebo on again in the morning. I'll be crying and
complaining the whole time too, but it's worth it.
One day I'd love to stop working for others and start working for myself. I
have some ideas but they hinge on a few other things going well. Unless you
are CEO of a major company most people will not get rich from collecting a
paycheck... I'm actually about to make some salmon and grits, not quite
croquettes, but close.
@ Keith: I don't think I'll get rich, but I'm sure gonna try. You never
know I guess.
I think that is too sweet and cute...your husband throwing it down in the
kitchen. Sounds like yoy have a wonderful family.
@ Seven: Thanks for stopping by.
Silk Soy milk is the best ever.
@ Lady: Girl I need some billy blanks abs, arms, legs, thighs. Shoot, I
need my whole body redone. I haven't done it since earlier this week so
I'm slacking. I need to find a way to build in into my daily routine so it
becomes a habit. That is if it doesn't kill me first. Billy Blanks is NO
JOKE. Lol
When men do something nice for the lady, we are often scared that you guys
will expect this all the time. ;]
Hey Capt:
