Backpast notes.....Time for recap

Song of the Day: Complicated by Avril Lavine

I cant even believe its been 3 weeks since my last entry, well yes I can. My life has been going 900 mph and im just now starting to hit the brakes. BUT THERE IS SOOOOO MUCH TO SAY. Guess Imma have to do it in the form of BACKPAST NOTES!!!

• Grandma is out of the hospital and in the nursing home. She is doing fine but she gives my mom hell from time to time. I hope when she goes home my mom can get get some much needed stress relief
• My sister moved her children out of the house. She found a nice condo and bought some furniture for a good price. Im proud of her for being independent!!!
• Work is work! A co-worker, Chasity, and I have become friends. She is sooo cool and we hang out from time to time.

Now for the real juice. I got "involved" with this guy, we will refer to him as Ric. He delivers food for the program I work for. I would speak to him when he came in and I called him once for a business matter, but we were basically strictly on a hi and bye basis. But Monday I had to call him for another business matter, and this Nigga decides to text me back. We texted for about 40 hours straight, when we were awake that is. It was nice. I thought he would be the summer fling I was looking for. Then he tells me he has a girlfriend....WHY LAWD!?!?!? He said we wanted to continue texting me so he did. He started getting raunchy. That should have been my cue to let him know the deal, but me being the hard headed person I am, I just played into it. Well some boundaries got crossed (not going into detail) and he felt some kind of regret. He told me he strictly wanted to be friends. That kinda hurt me, but he still texts me, sometimes more than what I want. I dont think he will keep this up for long. I feel that sooner than later he will be back to his old tricks. He thinks Im cute and he sees me 5 of 7 days in a week so.....(update to follow soon, I hope)

RECAP YALL!!!1

Song of the Day: Celebration by Kool & The Gang

WOW! I have learned so many things this summer. The ladies at my job keep me laughing, but they also teach me life lessons on a daily basis. May I share them with you?

• Be yourself, no matter what people say or do, you can only be YOU!
• A Puerto Rican Suitcase is a grocery bag, this is useful info no matter what.
• Never let a man worry you, especially if he is not your husband. Even if you love him to death, letting him fray your nerves is no good.
• Watch your mouth, you never know who may be listening.
• Be ye also ready.....nuff said.
• Laugh, A LOT

I am happy to report that my sister made it home from Iraq. She is fine and her children were very happy to see her. Im sure she was happy to see them as well. She is reporting to base in the morning but will be back on the weekend.

My fourth of July was ok. I worked most of the day but when i got off, I went to Elle's house for food. My mom, sister, and nieces were there and we had a good time. I went with Elle and her children to see the fireworks sponsored by my small city. They were ok, but we were late getting a good spot to watch them. I was just glad to be out. :)
