For those of you who don't really know me... Well I love commercials with talking babies, or talking dogs. That shit just gets me. This has no talking... but hip hop roller babies? Can't beat it!

It's A Beautiful Day!
Today is a high of 93 degrees! I wore a sundress and called it a day. Lol, it’s so beautiful outside though. I am going to try to get home at a decent hour so I can just sit outside and watch the sunset. I walked to Borders on 34th St. on my lunch break. I like their Christian Fiction collection. It’s pretty decent. I actually saw books I wanted to buy from them. I am going to have to slow down in the book buying department which I am learning is easier said than done. Lol.

It tell about A troubled young woman reunites a grieving couple who have been driven apart by the death of their daughter. Filming took place in New Orleans in late Fall 2008. No official release dates have been announced.
Kristen Stewart plays Mallory, the troubled young woman.
Synopsis Welcome to the Rileys
Doug Riley and his wife Lois have been living a half life since their daughter Emily was killed eight years ago. Doug has coped by having an affair with Vivian, a waitress. Lois has struggled, harbouring a secret and devastating sense of guilt for her daughters death. She has withdrawn into herself and hides away from the outside world, relying on hairdressers who make house calls, her sister, Harriet, and the local pastor.
When Vivian dies, Doug is lost. On a business trip to Baton Rouge he finds himself at a crossroads. And in a strip club. A 16 year old lap dancer Mallory offers him extras in a private room. He turns her down but goes home to her run down apartment and makes his own proposition. He offers to pay her $100 a day if he can stay for a while, get his head together. No sex. No strings. Mallory isnt used to getting money for nothing, but whatever
Doug rings Lois and tells her he isnt coming home.
He and Mallory settle into a certain kind of domesticity although Mallory wandering around naked and offering sex are a little off-putting!
Helpless on her own, Lois, a woman previously unable to make it the 20 yards to the mailbox, realises she will have to take drastic action if she is to save her marriage. For the first time in 8 years, and after a couple of failed attempts, she manages to reach her car and start driving, headed south.
Back in Louisiana, Doug tidies Mallorys apartment and then sets about trying to clean up her life. Shes an underage hooker after all.
Lois, paper bag at the ready to save her from hyperventilating, makes slow but steady progress. When she finally arrives to find her husband living with a foul-mouthed young hooker, Lois is, predictably, horrified. But, like Doug before her, she is taken with Mallorys similarities to Emily. Lois moves in. And the three of them form an unusual family unit. But Mallory soon bridles at the attempts to mend her wicked ways. Shes not ready to be anyones surrogate daughter just yet. Sparks fly.
After she is beaten up and hospitalised by a client, Doug and Lois rush to Mallorys bedside. They are asked what their relationship is to the girl. Only family are allowed in after all. Lois hesitates. Then declares that she and Doug are her parents.
Doug and Lois are finally re-united. Lois admits to Doug how their daughter died and he finally understands why she has been so consumed by guilt. The weight of the last few years are finally lifted from her shoulders and life seems like it is coming back together
But Mallory isnt about to complete the pretty picture just yet. Shes a teenager after all

The Newly- Wed Game
My cousins (she’s my cousin now too, lol) invited me and his sister over for dinner tonight. It was hilarious. The only difference now is that she doesn’t ride home with us anymore. Any who; they were talking about their honeymoon in the Pocono’s and how much fun it was. They mentioned a game that the other honeymooners were playing called the Newly-Wed Game. It was a game to figure out how much you knew about your spouse. I think it is absolutely hilarious to see my cousin and his wife (it sounds so funny to say) talk with us; they are sickening! It made me happy that I am waiting. I want that; not the cute pukey stuff but the companionship that God has intended for me. Sigh, I am so happy for them; even though they were extremely sickening.

We Have the Victory!
Service was amazing today! I woke up this morning telling myself “Enough is enough!” I am sick and tired of constantly running around in circles on cycles that I have no business being in. I played “Yearn” by Shane & Shane on my way to service and “Beautiful Lord” by Leeland (love them!) and prepared myself for worship. My cousin (who is a mighty Woman of God) was called upon to do the Welcome Address for the new visitors and as the say the rest is history…..Lol, she started to talk about enough was enough, we have the Victory! I tell you it was so amazing! It seems like the Body of Christ is suffering for too long. Its time to tell the devil: “Enough!” We have the Victory. It’s time to shout it from the mountain tops and take what God has for us; it doesn’t have to be financial. It could be a peace of mind, salvation for a love one, deliverance from a situation, etc. Today let us proclaim “We Have the Victory!”

You Keep Me Coming Back for More...
My ex is a drug that is slowly killing me. Every time I try to get over him and move on; he keeps saying or doing something that makes me want to go back. But no more! I am ridding myself of him and asking God to break the ties that keeps us connected some way or another. Keep me in prayer.
