Well I've been MIA for a while but I am back with some updates. So hubby and I are not moving to Houstons. Turns out this company wasn't serious about paying him what he is worth. Yupe all about the money here. So we are still in Dallas and I'm loving it.
My hair is great! My transition is going very well. I actually installed some individual braids about a week ago and I will be posting some pictures later on tonight. I am planning on keeping these braids til the end of October or should I say I'm gonna "try" to to keep them til the end of October. You all know my hair changes with the weather.
I was talking to hubby last night and I realize I have the most different, strange, weird encounters with people its amazing. Sometimes I think back and think "I should have taken offense to that", or "I should have said something", or "I should have just walked away". I think I am just soooo nice and I give people the benefit of the doubt. Let me give you an example.
A couple days ago I was in Walmart looking threw the CD's after I had just made a deposit in one of my bank accounts "yes I still buy CD". So I am looking and I decide to get Sean Paul's new album because have been aching to hear some reggae and move my body to the smooth reggae beats and then I notice KJon which I luv the single he has out right now called ummmm "Sail Away?" or something like that. So anyways I went to the cash register to check out and there stood the cashier who was a tall, skinny, caucasian, young man maybe about a couple years out of High school. I noticed that he was acting a little nervous but I didn't think too much of it so I waited there for him to ring up my 2 CD.
The Cashier kinda slowed down and looked at me and said " I know your married because I see your ring there and don't take this the wrong way but I like your outfit and it very unique". So I thought what's so unique about a wrap dress? But I appreciated the gesture and thought it was very nice. So I said "Owww thank you that was really nice" actually it made me smile and I was gonna have a little bit more pep in my step until he made this next confession..."I just quit smoking yesterday so I'm a little on edge right now" Yes, just like that out of no where. So I did what any normal person would do I commended him on quitting and assured him that he had made the right decision. But then I thought to myself " Why am I talking to this guy about him quitting smoking? I am not his counselor or 12 step partner...oh wait 12steps I think that alcohol (LOL) Well anyways back to the story... And just when I was handing him my 24.00 dollars and completing the transaction yet another confession "I quit smoking cigarettes but I may smoke a lil of something else now and then though". So this time I smiled politely and reached for my bag to leave not even worried about my change or receipt...
Next time I'll tell you about the women I meet in Walgreens that followed me threw out the store to the cash register and then to my car trying to convince me that going to Houston with her to finds a Man was a good idea...

Hey Krystal,
ReplyDeleteWell, in reference to you and Allen not moving to Houston, not to worry (which I am sure you are not) but anytime one thing doesn't work out, that just means it is because something better is going to come along for you all. I hope you are doing well. And in reference to your other blog note, I hope your mouth is healing well too from getting that tooth pulled!! You are just like me, getting wisdom teeth pulled in your late twenties. People made fun of me because most of my friends had them out as teenagers!!!
Peace & Love, Auntie Lisi
