You know I read the news blogs and the face.book. post about the unemployment benefits being extended and I'm reading the comments about how people are scamming the system. I'm not saying there aren't people who are but the majority of people are looking for a job. People say well you are only looking for a job like the one you used to have. Well that could be because I'm qualified for those jobs. 0_o
Others would like you to apply at fast food places and stores of that nature. Do you think WE aren't? You have no idea how many of us have been told:
Them: you're over qualified
Me: yeah but I don't have a job and anything is better then nothing
Them: you'll just leave as soon as you find something else
Me: duh isn't that the point to do better
Them: you'll just be bored
Me: really idk I just need a job.
I'm just tired of the people who have jobs acting like it's so easy. It's not. People say they are hiring and for one position you have 100 people apply for it the employers have their pick.
Sorry y'all I'm just venting right now. I just received yet another rejection letter and I'm beyond frustrated. It was for a position I was clearly over qualified for and I feel like I'm being penalized for that fact.
If you are struggling finding a job tell your story! If you've been able to find a job let me know what you did!

I know dang! I can't believe I am even this size. Those who knew me way back when know I was a bean pole. As you can see my weight is mainly in my belly area. I can tone up the arms and legs but the tummy is gonna be the killer area. My oldest and I went walking again today and I sweat my but off. I purchased one of those belts you put around your waist that make you sweat more. It was soaking wet!
I feel really good about getting back on track and finally getting to my ideal size never to return to this^^^^!
Announcement!! .... Y'all Listening??

THIS IS BIG Y'ALL!!!!!! MY OLDEST DAUGHTER WHO IS 16YRS OLD HAS DECIDED TO GO NATURAL!!!!!!
Ok am I having a proud mommy moment, YUP! I am so happy. I know her hair will be thick, full and beautiful. She has a tightly coiled texture (I think a 4 not sure the # yet). My baby was teased all the time as a youngster about her hair and requested perms all the time. If it wasn't permed it was braided in some style or another to cover up what she had growing underneath.
She cut her hair short this past spring break wanting to get it healthier BUT she permed it. Her hair is growing really fast and she has seen the coils of her new growth popping through. She is wondering, like I am, what she would look like with her hair in it's natural state. Right now she has it braided. She's keeping it under wraps for at least 6 months to a year, until she gets a good amount of hair under there and then she'll start cutting off the permed ends. SHE'S TRANSITIONING! This is major for her! She even told her best friend she was doing it. My daughter is a very popular girl at school. I wonder what the reaction will be when she lets her hair loose. She told me she didn't care what people might say. Luckily she has the confidence to pull it off and I am so proud of her!

OK ladies I have been trolling the discussion boards and blogs on the web and have decided that it is time for me to get back to loosing this weight. I need to trim up all over but specifically my stomach!!! I genetically seem to hold this weight in my tummy area and as we all know that's not good. So I am starting back exercising! I have been home for two months (I was laid off my job) and I have been kinda in a funk and I gained back 10lbs of the 30lbs I worked so hard to loose. I was 215 went down to 184 and now I'm 194. YUP I can't bare the thought of me hitting 200 much less going over it. I will post my before, during and after pictures. I'm hoping that it will motivate me. If I post up how big I am then seeing it and knowing other will see it might be the kick in the pants I need!
Pray for me y'all. This is going to be really hard for me but I did it before ..... a loooooooong time ago and I can do it again! Right?? RIGHT!!!
I'm going walking tonight but starting tomorrow I am going to do a 20 min ab DVD and 20 on my elliptical machine. It's been too hot to walk, which is what I love to do, but I will do it at least 3x's a week for 2 miles then build myself back up to jogging. My goal is to run the Cooper River Bridge Run April 2011. That is a 7/8 mile run. That is my goal! I use to be in the military and running many, many miles was nothing. Mind you I was 19yrs old then too. =/ hahahaha
Thanks for listening! Yolei
You ARE The Father, Maybe???
Lawyer sues basketball star LeBron James, alleging he is his father.
Where they do that et?
Really Dude???? Where where you when he was a baby?
How many chances do you need??
Lindsy Lohan is disappointed in a harsh and unfair treatment. Doooooof !!!! 0_o
Did I miss something? Was she not given several chances to get herself together? I'm glad she's doing jail time. Maybe, just maybe she'll learn from this that there are consequences to her actions.
Do you think the judge was too harsh or did she get what she deserves?
Dre is off today!!!!!!
