throwing elbows & such

Have you gotten an email that starts like this? Well let me introduce you to snopes.com.

snopes is your friend, people. If you have recently received "Nine Tips" from one of your dear e-buddies, rather than throwing elbows and wallets at various perceived predators, peep the link.

As always, snopes will give you clarity and help you separate the wheat from the chaff.

zapnin!

just thought i'd take a break from prep for an end of the week blessedstarcards.com vendor opportunity on Saturday--yay! but sheesh!--and say howdy y'all!

hope all is super well.

so glad it's summertime i don't know what to do!

love just throwing on a 1/4 lb. of cloth, grabbing my keys and a coupla Jacksons and out the door! now, that's what i call liberation.

speaking of which...

your DivaCardista finally got herself some wheels!

holla if you, too, are loving the SUV life! my initial intention was to get myself a sweet lil Toy-yota, but then this pretty lil SUV just caught my heart, let me tell you. Her name is Baybee. And, Lord have mercy, with all the pure-d stress that i have had to endure just to get something as quotidian as a doggone car, you would have thought I was trying to adopt an Eritrean orphan child! SO much we have gone through since last we spoke. Mph mph mph. but Baybee is mine now, tags and all.

now... all we need to do is learn how to park and rock the K turn without blemish or flaw. (Pray my strength!)

and, yes, they have finished mashing my insides around and draining off my life fluids for a while because--yay!--they didn't find a n ything rare or terribly disturbing going on inside. Thank you Lord!

now we just have to make our annual LadyDr. appointments and we will be straight re: the medical professionals in my life.

oh, and I joined a gym! the Good Lord built one right on the corner, as in: no matter what i do in the neighborhood i have to pass it anyway, so i may as well git in where i fit in...before i can't fit no more (clothes, furniture, public/private transport...)

got me a trainer and everything.

now how blessed is that?

now, you take care of your lovely self as well, ok? promise?
