"I 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. ; )"

I am who I am…just let me be. I will be better than you imagine. But I can only be my best under my own terms. Your terms will only be warn as a garment. My terms will pour out of my soul and seep through my bones. It will be a beauty unimagined. - http://adrianna.tumblr.com/post...
My husband and I split up almost two years ago. My daughter is almost three. For two years, she hasn’t seen her father. Today, someone forwarded me this picture. She looked at it, turned to me, smiled and in the most joyful voice I’ve heard come out of her little body, she said, “Mommy and Daddy…Loveeeee” And she squeezed my hand. These are the... - http://adrianna.tumblr.com/post...
"I 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!"

"What?? 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 ; ) 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."

"We 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!"

"I 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? 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. 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."

"OK, 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. ; ) 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. Good luck! I know you are going..."

"I 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! 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 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..."

How can someone not love dogs. They always make me smile. Look at how relaxed this one is on the swing. You can tell he is enjoying life.

"Shevonne, 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."

"Shevonne, could it be that your hair is shorter? Maybe that might have a little to do with it. I love curls. I don't have them myself but my daughter's is spiral curls. I say you start wearing it curly. ; )"
