The "M" Word

At this stage in my life I am focusing more on my career, deciding what I really want for myself and trying to be all that God created me to be. The balance in striving for success in those areas is hard to manage.

Then I have the other side of life that is a relationship, potentially having children one day but my reality is I don't know what that life looks like. Will I have to give up everything I have created in order to be married?

I get asked so much about when I will walk down the aisle that I forget it is so much more than that. Marriage is not just the walk to say "YES" because it doesn't stop there. I look at all the current issues I see around me and I wonder if I can do it. I wonder why folks are in a rush for me to deal with another situation that is out of my control. How do you define a good wife if in your life you have not seen many.

I really wish I could wrap my head around this whole thing but in the meanwhile I pray that the questions and concerns go to the person that will ask the question. No one can make a proposal happen and to rush into a marriage is not the way I want to go either.

For now let's all be happy with being here today.

Alexandria Cupcake hmmm

I am not big on the cupcake rave but since their is a new spot new me I thought I would try it out. I wanted to be able to say I tried something different and let you know how I felt about it.

So here we go.

I ordered the Vanilla Bean cupcake. The place is very nice and clean inside. Only one table and chair though. They don't want people hanging out inside I guess.

So I got it wrapped up so that I could eat it the way I want to in a cool location.

I took the top off the cupcake and went to work. I eat the frosting first because that is my style. It was just like bean. Yummy! After most of the frosting was gone I worked on the cupcake itself. It was ok but kinda dry. I was expecting the works for $3.15.

As I got close to the end I saw a foreign object. My mama always said don't eat things that you cannot identify with. This might mean a trip back to the store.

Anyway I have decided that I should've stayed away from the cupcake rave but since I tried it I am still not impressed. I am sticking to my love for the all time favorites strawberry shortcake, pineapple upside down cake and lemon meringue pie.

Oh Well I have learned once again the hard way.

Yoga

I always wanted to try yoga to see how it could benefit me.

I did it for awhile in the basement of a church but could not seem to get my body to do what the instructor displayed.

It is possible that I will try again since this is DC Yoga Week. Maybe as time has passed my body is ready to be stretched to the limits.

Keep It To Yourself

As I sit at a networking event this guy comes over and talks to me and my friend. He was really nice. He offered to buy me a drink but no alcohol for this one.

He sat beside me and just started to talk about all kinda things. It was ok until I started I felt something wet with air. I thought maybe I had taken a daydream moment and was at the spa. No! As he was talking the spit flowed with air. Come on sir!

Be mindful when you are out to networking to not spray people.

I am just saying!

Happy May!

It is May 2010 and it feels good.

I hope all is well with all that love and adore me.

I plan to start back up again because my life is funny....
