LOOK AT ME NOW!


THE BULL IS ALWAYS READY TO CHARGE!

Alright, I’m just going to come right out and say it.  TAURUS is what’s up right about now!  It is most definitely OUR time!
For those that don't know:

1. Astronomy . the Bull, a zodiacal constellation between gemini and aries, containing the bright star Aldebaran.
2. Astrology . a. the second sign of the zodiac: the fixed earth sign.
b. a person born under this sign, usually between April 20th and May 20th. 


#TRUTHIS I got lots of Bday love and am so grateful. 
#TRUTHIS I just had to stop writing this post because some flowers were just delivered to my office.  With my birthday being behind me now, it's that crazy feeling when you really have no idea who they are from  and all the women at the office want to stand around and watch you open the card...#MINDYOURS 
#TRUTHIS I am feeling rather suprised, more like shocked because of who they are from. But always most appreciative of the thoughts. They are my favorite flowers (Stargazer Lillies), too which is always a plus.  I opened the card and it simply read HAPPY BIRTHDAY.... followed by the senders initials.  The initials are those of an old friend with whom I have not spoken for sometime...on purpose. I definitely just had to take a moment and pick up the phone.  #TRUTHIS The ones that care, never forget.
 
#TRUTHIS I watched Dancing with the Stars last night.  The channel got changed after Romeo danced to “My heart will go on” by Celine Dion.  Not because it was cheesy, but because after hearing that song, the divas HAAAAD to watch the movie The TITANIC, which is one of my faves.  But I’ll get to that in a minute.  Let’s get back to Romeo for a quick sec.  Clearly, he is no longer “Lil” Romeo. He has grown up rather nicely.  He is a cutie... (not to be confused with grown ass man) and he reminds me of one of the cousins you meet at the family reunion ;). And since he is a little youngin, I bet @cristilovequeen will just adore him  or give him the corny seal with a quickness...Either way, I am sure Percy Miller Sr. is proud of his boy!  Romeo snuck in a kiss with his dancing partner at the end of their dance last night… haaa... He is a character!  He got the first 10 of the season after that dance, too!  It's almost funny to watch these rappers/athletes do these ballroom dances, but they are serious, okay! Don’t count him out.  Wasn’t his daddy like the first one kicked off, on the season he was on there? Lol Go ‘head Romeo!  Check out his performance last night!
(Bruno called him Romeo DiCaprio) ;)

Ok, now back to the movie- As y’all know that is a Looong movie, so the girls eventually dozed off but I of course, watched the whole thing!  ;)  The love story captured was magical! That is that good good that you feel at the beginning of a relationship!  Yes, I said the beginning! Hopefully, we have all felt that kind of "can't live without you" " You jump, I jump" love. Some of us may be feeling it now! Enjoy it and hold onto every moment of it!  Eventually, as life continues to happen, you will have to work to maintain it, but it can be done! Rose jumped OUT of the life boat and back onto the sinking ship to be with her man! I love that! Crazy or not.  #TRUTHIS I wonder if she would have done it, had they been living together for 10+ years and faced lifes trials and tribulations, or if she would have been one of those women in the lifeboat watching from afar...
#TRUTHIS Da Brat is back on the scene and just simply rippin’ it.  Please turn it up and hit replay, so that you can really let her voice sink in.  She does not miss a beat.  She is out and on probation, so she can't leave the state, but she can be all over yo radio and ipods.  Check her out.



#TRUTHIS That Highlander Commercial! You know the one with the folks singing "Angel" and the little boy in the backseat looking at his friend in the other car and mouthing "Helllp Me!!"  I love that ish.  It cracks me up!!  That is definitely me and their dad! lol  Fortunately, the kids sing along though!  If y'all can find it, send it to me.  I couldn't find it on you tube.  Hilarious!


#TRUTHIS FROM THE MOUTHS OF BABES  I was getting dressed and Addyson, who is 3, said "Mommy, what's that?" as she is pointing to my side.  I'm like "What is what?" and she says "That"? and reaches out and touches some fat.  haha  I said "Addyson, That is FAT!" lol And she just started giggling!  I love my babies!
 
#TRUTHIS I am a grown ass woman with grown ass problems, a grown ass body, and some thank they grown kids, but I also got grown ass blessings and wouldn't change a thing ....ok, there is maybe one or two things I would change lol
But you know what? Another blessing is that I still have today to do it! ;) Always count em, baby!

OH KELLY, OH KELLY ACCESSORIZE ME!

MS. KELLY BABY
Okay so we all know her as CRAZY ASS KELLY from the Real Housewives of New York which happens to be season premiering tonight on BRAVO so brace yourself.  Anyway it seems as if CRAZY ASS KELLY has been officially added to my list of people who ride the thin line between brilliance and insanity because her creative vision I find pretty dope.  She gave us all a sneek peek on the show of her owl line of jewelry but now she is moving into a hippy sheek collection that I AM SO FEELING.  If you don't know LOVEQUEEN got a thing for the punk rock, heavy metal vibe and jewelry is my second love after sunglasses. Unlike most chicks, the shoes don't do it for me...GIVE ME SOME HAVAIANAS and I'm cool!  

Anyway I wanted to bring a few pieces out and show everyone what CRAZY ASS KELLY is working with in her jewelry.  Also I was surprised to see how affordable it is and can really work for any budget.  Here are a couple of the necklaces from her line. LET ME KNOW WHAT YA THINKIN?

MY HEMATITE ROMANCE NECKLACE, retailing at $128
FULL CHAINMAIL JACKET NECKLACE, retailing at $128


Here are a couple of my favorite braclets in the collection as well:

METAL SLAVE, retailing at $78

MY "SHE'S GOTTA HAVE IT PIECE", THE FRINGE BRACELET, retailing at $88

FINALLY THERE IS MY POCASHANTE SIDE THAT HAS A SOFT SPOT FOR TURQUOISE AND FEATHER EARRINGS...KELLY'S TURQUOISE, retailing at $65

Most of Kelly's piece can be found at INTERMIX but if you want to check out more then hit up http://www.kellykillorenbensimon.com/  JUST THOUGHT I DROP SOME FLAVOR IN YOUR EAR!

ALL DAY EVERY DAY, I LIVE #TRUTHIS

#TRUTHIS I am in love with my family. They are some crazy characters but nonetheless, you always know what you are going to get from them.  My sistercousin Timi came down to visit me for the weekend and we had an amazing time with her beautiful girls, Seattle and Aja.  I swear those are my babies even tho my baby Aja is 6'2 and Cece is a few inches taller than me as well.  I am just so proud of them and who they've become as young ladies but I know a lot of who they are has to do with the amazing mother they have. She works extremely hard for her children giving them everything she has to give and supporting them endlessly.  I swear love those kids as if they were my very own.
#TRUTHIS These days I am feeling super blessed.  Even though I feel like all I do is work and go to school, I am fully capable of seeing the purpose in it.  In order to achieve the things I desire then I must sacrifice to get it.  It is all in the game when you have big dreams and a vision that's limitless.  I don't believe in chasing the money, I chase the dream and the money will come. And I dream of Emmy's...LOTS OF THEM!

#TRUTHIS I think I've got JUNGLE FEVER and a feeling for SOMETHING NEW. I never saw myself being attracted to W boys before but I am really expanding my horizons after coming across a couple of dope ones.  Also I've found out that we could connect on a lot of levels as well.  However my Jungle Fever will not allow me to cop one who doesn't have any flavor…FLAVOR IS A MUST!  I need you to know about the hot songs and not just House and Electronica YA DIG! Also if you rock a fitted hat then that is just an added bonus over here.
#TRUTHIS I am so happy that my favorite show, Nurse Jackie, is back on the air.  She is helping ease my pain of missing SONS OF ANARCHY.  Nurse Jackie is a pill-popping drug addict who at the same time is the most loving mother and nurse a hospital could ask for.  She makes up her own rules and lies to almost everyone she comes across but I can't help but to root for her every show.  Check it out Monday nights on Showtime.
#TRUTHIS Despite everyone's hate, I actually liked the GREY'S ANATOMY music event and my favorite song was at the end called The Story by Brandi Carlile.  Even though I wasn't anticipating singing the whole time, I still got into it because I seriously love every single one of those characters on the show.  Also McDreamy and McSteamy could get it any day of the week…FLAVOR OR NOT!  Thank God Callie is okay but I can't wait to see what happens with the baby…more drama is on the horizons!
#TRUTHIS I am starting to believe in happy endings again. I know I am so far from perfect and so is my figure and so is my life but I am starting to feel like God's got something amazing pending in terms of love for me.  I don't know whether it will be in the form of a career or a man but I feel like I am on the verge of possessing it.  Hopefully it will be both but just like I told my girlfriend the other night, there is nothing that I wouldn't trade to have a family to call my own. Also my days of playing special friend  like Queen Latifah's character in Just Wright (who I have been compared to a million times) are over and just like she said in the movie, "I deserve better than that."   So if you come at me then make sure come correct cuz I've reach the point where YOU CAN LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME ALONE!
