I’m having no luck and it’s making me sad. :-(

I’ma need to call in some backup ‘cuz this here is an EEE-MUR-JENT-C!!

Help me, help me puh-leeze!!

Life would be wonderful if I could find something like this…


…in a deep, dark red.

Any ideas? K’thanks! :-)

ETA: Can’t afford ‘em but I’d love to have these.

Money, Men, and Shoes

…typical Single Ma thought process. LOL I feel scatter brained today. My ADD and anxiety are in overdrive. I get this way when there’s so much to do and I don’t know where to begin. This post is a data dump of random ish (read: more procrastination) to help my brain cells play nice again:

- Spelman College costs $28k per year. Lawd I hope BabyGirl earns a scholarship. No way I can afford that. Well, unless I defer my retirement dreams until age 95.

- I want these boots. Baby Phat, $94.99 in Macy’s. Fabulous and super sexy. I’m so tempted. Somebody tell me I can’t have them. Puh-leeze!

- Have I mentioned how happy I am that BabyGirl’s father has taken a more active role in her life? Since she’s entered the world of “teen-devil,” I’ve needed his help more than ever. He asked if I wanted him to take her until she finished high school. ::blank stare:: I said look’a here, I appreciate your help, but I’m 15 years in bruh. I got this!

- A well dressed man is hella attractive to me. I can tell quality when I see it. Tailored suit, dimpled tie, Allen Edmonds shoes. Yes, I peeped the detail. LOL Add smart and articulate to the mix - Single Ma is DONE! *fanning myself* Why oh why must he stare at me when I’m talking? *sigh*

- Flashbacks of that image made me forget what else I was going to type. There was going to be a money message in one of these bullets somewhere. I promise! HA HA HA

Ok gotta run. Presentation at 8, flight at 10.

Have a fabulous work week!

Shoes Update

Remember this post? Red Pumps for the Holidays
I bought these shoes:


Well they came in the mail today. Uh-guh-lie!

Uncomfortable.
The patent looks like cheap plastic.
And the heel is NOT 3 inches.

Ugh! They’re going back.

Delayed Gratification

…can be the hardest thing in the world. Sometimes.

So I’ll just stare at these babies from my computer screen.

Excuse me while I have a moment…
