I guess it's better to have the day filled with activities.dcfemellaMon, 19 Oct 2009 15:51:01 -0000http://familyfoodies.disqus.com/four_foods_on_friday/#comment-20507261Mozzarella cheese<br>Cheddar Cheese<br>Mayonaise<br>Ranch DressingAdriannaMon, 19 Oct 2009 14:20:41 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/weekend_is_filled_with_nothingness_a_good_thing/#comment-20507008I can't picture you sitting still. From what it looks like on my end, you seem to be busy all the time. Not necessarily just work, but also play. It seems you have a healthy balance. But rest and "nothingness," is necessary too. I hope you enjoyed your "nothingness" day. ; )AdriannaMon, 19 Oct 2009 14:16:26 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/my_heart_is_pounding8230/#comment-19172048=DdcfemellaTue, 06 Oct 2009 12:00:20 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/my_heart_is_pounding8230/#comment-19157478I am excited for you Shevonne. You sound very happy and you deserve that my friend. I want to hear more about this guy!AdriannaTue, 06 Oct 2009 11:39:49 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/how_much_should_the_tooth_fairy_give_a_child/#comment-17332589I think part of the reason the "tooth fairy" gives kiddos money is so they can enjoy it But I like you, don't think going overboard is healthy. I would have to say anything over 5 dollars is over doing it. I will probably give Vaness 3 to 5 dollars with the time comes. She will have a field day at the dollar store lol. But that gold piece is a brilliant idea!AdriannaThu, 24 Sep 2009 19:23:29 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/i_don8217t_want_to_have_a_bad_relationship/#comment-15983564What?? Please tell me you are kidding? How can I be the only one that understands? Either we really are both cursed LOL or we are the only Jerry Springer families, and that is not possible! LOl ; )<br><br>I know what you mean when you say the luck worries you. God knows you have all the reason to be worried. I'm not saying that to be negative, I am saying that to be real. BUT what is even more real is that if you don't put that aside somehow, someway, you will die saying, "Shat if?" "What if I had stopped thinking and just loved or allowed someone to love me?" Don't let family take that away from you. YOU are AMAZING and you deserve love. The thing is, it's on it's way. But you have to be ready to receive it when it arrives, or it will just walk on by.AdriannaFri, 04 Sep 2009 13:47:44 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/i_don8217t_want_to_have_a_bad_relationship/#comment-15743772I know I shouldn't let my family's luck in relationships affect me. I've been super happy for awhile, and I am ready for a healthy relationship, but my family's luck scares me. I wrote this pretty quickly, so it probably doesn't make sense, but do you know that you are the only one who understood what I was saying?dcfemellaTue, 01 Sep 2009 21:45:27 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/i_don8217t_want_to_have_a_bad_relationship/#comment-15731196We must come from the same mold. To be honest, there is not one woman whose marriage or relationships have worked out in my family either. The curse is broad because the men's luck is no better. Don't let this bring you to the point where you miss out on the love you deserve. If you embrace the insecurities or the fear, you are letting this curse take over. Enough is enough! It's time to enjoy YOUR life and fall in love!AdriannaTue, 01 Sep 2009 15:48:20 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/needed_tips_and_advice_needed_to_run_ten_miler/#comment-15331830I will never say I'm a horrible runner again. Thanks! =DdcfemellaMon, 24 Aug 2009 19:57:09 -0000http://freeagentwriter.disqus.com/meeting_other_bloggers_is_always_fun/#comment-15331301In the blogger group that I am a part of, there are different people doing it for different reasons. The one thing we have in common is how passionate we are about blogging. Definitely try to find a group there. I will not give up on my writing group. I'll probably create one next year.=DdcfemellaMon, 24 Aug 2009 19:41:55 -0000http://freeagentwriter.disqus.com/meeting_other_bloggers_is_always_fun/#comment-15327719I bet meeting other bloggers or people that share your interests is great fun. I unfortunately don't have ONE friend who blogs or even has Facebook. All my FB or blogging friends I have met online or are people from my past. Currently I don't think my friends even use a computer! Sad huh? <br><br>I am thinking about getting more involved with people that hold my interest such as blogging. The thing is I don't do it for profit or even to get followers (even though that is fun and great as well). I do it more than anything just for the fun of it. To be able to express myself, to myself, if that makes any sense. <br><br>Don't give up on your writing group. It can take up to 11 tries for something like that to take. If you love it, do it! In the meantime it's a great idea you have to join an already established writing group.AdriannaMon, 24 Aug 2009 17:56:02 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/needed_tips_and_advice_needed_to_run_ten_miler/#comment-15327186OK, the first tip is not to say you are a horrible runner! Take that out of your mind and don't say it again, or no matter what you do, you WILL be a horrible runner. ; )<br><br>As for a second tip, I don't have one as I have never run myself. LOL But I do know that my X was a runner and what he ate and how much fluid he drank was of upmost importance to him. He said it made a great difference. Stretching, yoga, pilates are all a great help. The exercise ball. Also learn the the proper running techniques. If you don't you may get hurt and then you lost all your hard work. I would advice you google it and see what you can find. Another person to ask is Joseph. You may have him on your FB I'm not sure. If you don't I'll ask him for you. He is an AVID runner. I think he runs like 8 miles a day or something insane. Actually maybe I'm the one that's insane and I am way off. LOL Either way, he is amazing. Let me know if you want me to get in touch with him or you. <br><br>Good luck! I know you are going to do GREAT!!AdriannaMon, 24 Aug 2009 17:42:03 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/he_let_me_go_so_i_could_be_happy/#comment-14966076I am finally at peace with it cause I really didn't think he cared about me at all, but now I know that he did. Girl, no crying!dcfemellaMon, 17 Aug 2009 13:49:55 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/he_let_me_go_so_i_could_be_happy/#comment-14965015Damn it Shevonne! Now I'm crying. I can TOTALLY picture you looking through the letters and going through all these emotions. It is so upsetting to fall in love only to find it can't work. Now do you know how much he must have loved to to be able to let go so you could have better? Stay strong, and YES the right one for you IS around the corner. : )AdriannaMon, 17 Aug 2009 13:21:00 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/sometimes_not_doing_a_damn_thing_is_the_best_therapy/#comment-14877105I love your comments! I wonder if it also has to do with our culture. My family is always on the go, and I have noticed the same with my other latin friends. We are constantly visiting someone's house, going shopping, restaurants, trips, etc. I know my mom doesn't know how to relax, so I know that is another reason I can't. You'd be proud of me though. I went out to dinner with Lindsey Dragun (on FF), and then got text messages from five people asking me to meet them at this or that location, and I was tempted, but I turned them down. =DdcfemellaSat, 15 Aug 2009 11:01:46 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/sometimes_not_doing_a_damn_thing_is_the_best_therapy/#comment-14854399I felt rushed just reading about your business! lol Seriously, you are always busy. I see it in your writing. I think that is wonderful. It's better than being stagnant. However, as you say, it does have it's down side, and you need to think of YOU too!<br><br>I think this world is all about getting it NOW! Fast food service, cars, high speed internet, EVERYTHING. My x was Jamaican. I learned something from him. RELAX. I used to watch him and want to beat his a-- LOL. It was like watching a duck waddle across the street. I was always like, "Hurry UP!" "Come on!" "What are you waiting for?" For goodness sake would you move your butt!!!!" LOL <br><br>Then one day I thought to myself, "Ok Adriana, this is him. Don't fight it. Accept it for what it is." And I started watching him. Every night he would sit outdoors and just think under the florida stars. In the mornings, he would sit outside and watch the kids in the private school across the street from our home as they played. He would laugh and cheer them on. On days off he would put on his fishing hat and take the boat fishing. When he spoke, he spoke soft and beautifuly. <br><br>When his family came to visit and I realized I sound like a loud obnoxious person because I speak so fast and move so fast. I guess that's the difference between and island boy and a city girl. <br><br>So even if you don't pencil yourself in, do it in your every day moments. Give yourself a breather. Turn your cell phone off, hide your computer in the closet for an afternoon. Sit outside by yourself and just shut your eyes and feel the breeze. Life is TOO SHORT to slip by.AdriannaFri, 14 Aug 2009 16:51:15 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/h_pylori_is_no_laughing_matter/#comment-13881914Adriana, I've always had stomach issues, so I guess it's something that progressively got worse. Not really sure. Since I've started taking the medication, I have started feeling better, so I am on my way!dcfemellaTue, 04 Aug 2009 11:17:37 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/h_pylori_is_no_laughing_matter/#comment-13870393Shevonne, do you ever watch 'The Doctors? They talked about this today. About the Gastritis. I hadn't heard of the other one. Did they say how you got it? I'm glad you finally found out what this discomfort and pain was. Hope you feel better.AdriannaTue, 04 Aug 2009 03:06:30 -0000http://freeagentwriter.disqus.com/twitter_could_be_a_mini_friendfeed/#comment-13815377I attended my second virtual wine tasting via TwitterMoms this Friday. Definitely try and attend one. It's really great to meet fellow moms on Twitter. One thing I can say that what they are doing is really ingenious.dcfemellaSun, 02 Aug 2009 15:45:54 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/why_do_men_love_btches_women_love_asholes/#comment-13783420You have it right. Men love a challenge. I'm not a bitch but I REFUSE to take crap from anyone, especially men I m dating. I expect complete respect or what's the use in being with them? When I stand up and voice that I don't like something, they alwys tell me that's a turn on. Every one of them have said the same thing. Some say, "I love when you're bitchy and wont' tke my s---. To me it's not about being bitchy but they have gone out with enough submissive woman that I come across that way. So I wonder if it's bitchiness or the attraction is a woman who doesn't need them unless they treat her right? I don't know. I don't even think THEY know the answer.<br><br>You were saying your friend is beautiful. Did you know that most men are attracted to "beautiful," but beautiful isn't what keeps them at these women's side? That's why it has been proven that most women that men cheat with are most often than not, not as attractive as the women they are cheating on. It has been said by experts on the subject, that it's the physical attraction that gets them initially, HOWEVER, it's the way the woman makes them feel and not taking any crap, that keeps them. Hmmm...something to think about? lolAdriannaSat, 01 Aug 2009 11:59:35 -0000http://freeagentwriter.disqus.com/twitter_could_be_a_mini_friendfeed/#comment-13783069I love TwitterMoms and always look forward to their newletters in my inbox. They do lots of fun things and using Twitter is pretty creative. I wanted to make it to the wine tasting but couldn't. : (AdriannaSat, 01 Aug 2009 11:42:08 -0000http://dcfemella.disqus.com/vision_statements_are_like_mantras_for_the_soul/#comment-13446749Happiness project sounds interesting.
