Re: Dear So & So

LOL Pamcrow!!!!!!!!!! so stop denying Mr. Biggs. I personally think she shot him herself so she could get a little rest... LOL

Authorities said the girlfriend went to a spare bedroom, and several minutes later she heard two gunshots. She told deputies her boyfriend came into her room and threatened her. He then stumbled into the kitchen before falling into the oven, knocking himself unconscious. The man was treated for two gunshot wounds to the arm and was taken to jail.

LMAO. Girl Mr. Biggs got to much appetite for me sometimes. Never satisfied with just a snack. Wants a full course meal ALL the time. It's like working another job, LOL.

BTW, now that you mention it, you're probably right about homegirl shooting him. Makes more sense.

[quote="Musikana"]Dear eyebrows,

Since high school, I've always thought we were unique and exotic. Now i look back at pictures and find that you made me the cliche, the light-skinned hairy girl who doesn't know she looks like Bert. Now that i'm older i know how to tame and shape you but you grow so fast that I wake up one day and there are caterpillars on my face. Get this straight eyebrows, i own you. So stay put, don't get curly, don't join hands, and stop growing so damn fast. I have a day job!

Sincerely,
your face

Don't join hands! LMAO

Calm Down Kaholgah....LOL
But thats just like some Men..... They dont know how to treat you when they have you , then the minute you move on, here they come trying to get back in or mess up what you have going on.
But you know what, just dont respond to him or entertain any of his messages. Silence will hurt him far more than any words will.

Now Cinny that is too funny -- another one (caveman)??? Yes you ladies have to talk -- too funny! LOL!!!

My hubby is a caveman too, but for different reasons. He is stuck in the past as far as his views of what a womans place should be.

Dear Cafeteria cashier:

First of all, I think you are a cool girl, but must I remind you when we are at the office among "them" you need to be a little more professional?!?!? Don't talk to them about Jennifer Hudson's new album and the song that you like and start singing the only verse you know...half of them probably don't even know who Jennifer Hudson is!!! also, your hair be cute girl, but must you rock the blond and when "they" ask you did you color your hair blurt out "naw, it's a weave"!!!!! Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be "them" but there is a time and place for EVERYTHING and this company and the people we work for/with is not it!!! you know it is only a handful (ok maybe 2 handfuls) of "Us" so we need to let them know we do know how to act.

Sincerely,

Your morning visitor that gets 1 toast and 2 bacons!! :)

Re: Dear So & So

Wow, Rhonda...that's a tough one! This is the 2st Century. He needs to get over it. I remind my husband about that one by simply reminding him that our household is a dual-income one. If he wants me to 'stay in my place', I shouldn't have to work. Anywho...on to my letter....

Dear Starbucks Cashier,
How dare you have the audacity, to give ME career advice. Just because I'm a volunteer with the Police department, doesn't mean I should become a police officer. Did you know that I am the Capital Improvements Project Coordinator for the City? Did you know this position is quite lucrative and I am extremely happy with it! I'd be taking a serious pay cut, if I became an officer. Nor does my current job come with a fraction of the headache or unpredictability that officers have to deal with everyday. Maybe you should take your own advice, and get out of the coffee shop. Nevermind, apparently you can't do much, because you've never been the barista (as long as I've been coming here), you just sit at the register and swipe credit cards all day. So here's your tip: stay in your lane-I only accept advice from successful people...By the way, I didn't mean to embarrass you in front of your manager, but you dug that hole yourself, when you opened your mouth.

I'm a married woman as of December 2, 2006.

Re: Dear So & So

This is a great link. Okay, here's mine!!!

Attention you SOB who cut in front of me this morning. Where the Hell did you get your license from? Albertson's? Listen, the manufacturers added your blinkers for a reason Jerk, so that you could use them properly. When you turn your signal to the left, the rest of us behind you assume that you're going to make a left turn. I know that you probably didn't notice since your ass was on the cell phone yacking away, but I had to swerve, nearly hitting the separating post to avoid hitting your ass. So next time you put your blinkers indicating left, turn left instead of making a sharp right at a ridiculous speed, causing the rest of us to almost hit each other.

Exactly Cinny, I told brother man that if he can afford for me to stay home (seven figured salary) then I would. Otherwise, since I work and bring in 50% of the income in our home then we will share 50% of the household chores. If he earns a seven-figured salary and is paying 100% of the bills then I would stay home and do all of the cleaning and have his dinner ready when he comes home. But since that is not the case then we will share the whole responsiblity of running our home. There is no room for that caveman mentality in my house!!!!

Re: Dear So & So

Dear lady at the local coffee shopwho makes some weak a$$ cappuccino's,

If I have to tell you ONE MORE TIME to put NON-FAT/Skim milk with my expresso, then you will be wearing it! And your expresso is weak! Are you using the same coffee grinds from the previous customer? Do THAT one more time, and you will have to make me a new one on the spot. I don't care if 15 people are behind me! Do you sleep with a caveman who wants it in the wee hours in the morning, after he was too tired to do it at bedtime like 10 PM (12 AM if I didn't have papers to grade from some unmotivated college students), have to rush to get dressed, FIX my lunch and the caveman's, AND then double check his clothes to make sure that now that he irons his own he doesn't do as good as you, can I very well can't have him looking crazy cause all his co-workers know me?!?!...Is that how your morning went? NO! So when I come in for my ususal "Tall non-fat cafe mocha (or white mocha)", I needs it to be correct and strong. I BEEN told you I was lactose intolerant now that I am older, and anything more than skim will put me in a funk, and then the expresso in the drink is weak too? Do it ONE MORE TIME, and you're gonna be having a bad morning too!

Sincerely,

That girl from the Health Department Tag, and the cute hairdo...

Re: Dear So & So

I got another.

Dear Caveman,

I am no longer available at 3AM to do you. When I was trying to get it at bedtime you were too tired, but 3AM is too close to morning, so you are out of luck. If you are lucky enough to get me up (cause I know some days you will give up, and others you will whine until I wake up), I AM not getting on top of you. You are just asking a half-sleep wife a little too much. I think I will say you're being a little "extra". I will give you until 1 AM but after that you are stuck. AND if you are wanting it before breakfast, you have until 6:30AM. My boss DOES appreciate my hard work and all and lets me slide, but you don't have to look at EVERYONE's face when you are the one walking in at 5 after. Everyone is not best friends with their boss like you are.....But I love you though!

Love,
Your bumblebee

I wish I WAS exaggerating. I think he did it before but many weekends I am busy running errands. So one weekend I simply decided to pay more attention. All I could say is "Baby I didn;t think you could surprise me much more after 9 years together." He just smiled that little smirk cause he thinks its funny!

BumbleBeeKee...girl, either our husbands were seperated at birth or me & you were. I'm LOL over here, because, I'm cosigning on the weak lattes at the coffee shop (that taste more like water than chai tea) and the awkward hours of good loving.

Dear my SWEET SWEET HUBBY,

I just want to tell you that I love you! The fact that you love me SO much makes me love you even more. I love that you love the Lord.I love that you've been right there taking care of me before during and after my surgery. I love that you are so sensitive to my needs and wants. I love that you work so hard to provide for me. I love that you tell me all the time how beautiful and sexy you think I am. I love that you prove you think that when I catch you looking at me. I love that when I meet your fellow officers they tell me how much you brag on me to them and how they are sick of hearing how well I take care of you! I love that we are both learning, growing, experiencing life together. I love that fact that even when we have an argument, we are starting to learn that someone needs to put their pride down and be the one to apologize...that's growth. I am humbled by the fact that God brought us back together one more time. Thank you for being my Boaz, and I plan to live the rest of my life trying to make you as happy as you make me....

Love your wife....

Yeah I know it's dripping with sappiness....but I can't help it...I mean every word...lol...

Dear Riverdale Police Department,

Thank you so much for your hard work finding my camera and apprehending the trifling roommates of mine who stole it! I have to admit that I didn't think you would find it but I am overjoyed that you did! With your help I am not going to return to the business that I love and with the couraging words of the ViBride sistas I am going to take the next step and pick up my camera and do what I do best!

Thank you so much!

Dear Sad Excuse for a coworker,
I wish their was one day when you sat your little immature a$$ down and did some work for once in your life. All you do is Web surf and walk around all down. You think because you kiss our boss's a$$ that you are gonna survive the layoffs and continue to that crap but little do you know complaints about that have been coming from all directions. Stop talking all day and answer some phones. I am so sick and tired of answering your calls and doing work cause you not at your desk, or you whispering on the phone with your little dizzy girlfriend. I told you once about your and embarassed the mess out of you and I have no problem telling you again, that you need to get your shyt together and act like you are at work. and you wonder why no one talks to you in the office anymore.

sincerely,
you annoyed coworker

You have been the best boss i have ever had, but today, boy oh boy....I wanted to scream. If you give me another stankin big project like the one's you gave me today, I will lose it! I understand I am the favorite of the group and you are working to keep me busy so that it looks great for the layoffs but geeze that was some serious work... I hope you dont do this to me tomorrow cause I will lose my mind.
Sincerely,
your tired employee

Sorry ladies i had a rough day! and right now they have us on restricted personal emails and internet access for personal gain and entertainment. I lost my mind today, not being able to check in on her for just about the whole day.

LOL....silly! I just had to say it, I think we as wives have to really start learning how to uplift our husbands. As annoying as they can be sometimes and as much as we sometimes NEED to vent we should spend just as much actually even more time telling how wonderful they are! A couple days I got a call from a lady from our church, she said that both she and this other girl from our church have been praying. God laid it on their hearts to get a couple of wives from the church and start this group called "Praying Wives". We had our first meeting this Tuesday. We have women that have married from a range of years from 1 (me..lol) to 17 years. The book have actions that we need to do and scriptures that we need to read up and study. For example the first day it says you are not allowed to say or think anything negative about your husbands to them, to yourself, or anyone else. Just lift him up....the next day it tells you to do something else but continue on with the first day...and on and on building on each new action for each day. The purpose of this is study is by us changing ourselves, how we handle situations, or respond to things will in turn change the way are husbands react and do things on their own. If we start showing them the respect they need, EVEN if maybe they don't do everything to earn that respect...they will grow into it. The bottom line is we can't change anyone but ourselves....so with God's direction and help, His WILL will flow through us and continue to our husbands. It is good for me to be there so I can see what NOT to do to avoid problems going forward in the future. And prayerfully I am there to help those that's been married longer remember what it's like to be newlyweds and try to bring that spice back...I'm excited to see what will come of it....

Re: Dear So & So

Dear God,

I'm so confused, since I had my second fibroid surgery a couple months ago I just don't know what to do. I've been in pain so long with these fibroids and I'm just FRUSTRATED. Since the surgery I've tried several different BC pills and pain medication which had me suffering alot of side effects. I thank you right now because as I was praying to you let me know I needed to just leave all of that stuff alone and because of that I am starting to feel better in my body. Now God with all of that I am still confused and don't know which way to turn. As you know I went to the doctor because of the side effects and we started talking about me having children. The dr. stated that because of the 2 surgeries I've had and because of the fibroids they couldn't take out if they were to save my uterus there is a STRONG possibility that I would have to be on narcotics throughout my pregnancy because of the pain I could be in during it. Lord at the same time I know it was you telling to go through this career change that I'm working on right now. It's been confirmed through ministers and people that don't even know I was trying to do a career change that this is where I am supposed to be. So now there are so many questions....should I be trying to work this new career..how do I start this total 180....where do I start..will it be financially beneficial....should I have children....will it be safe for me to have children...could I have a miscarriage...will I go through 9 mths of severe pain...do I want children enough to risk that...etc etc etc? God I am trying to rest on your word "Be anxious for nothing,but in everything, through prayer and supplication and with thanksgiving, make your request know to God and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard you hearts and minds through Christ Jesus" God please help to ease my mind with all these questions and please help me give it all to you...for real...

Thanks for listening...

Your little girl...

I believe that too and I'm humbled by the fact that I have this opportunity to learn the "what not to do's" before-hand so my husband and I can continue to grow and get even stronger as I marriage grows.

Re: Dear So & So

Soon my dear sister you are an inspiration. I wish my church had a married women's prayer group. I would even be open to starting one, but to be honest, I don't think my pastor would go for it. He is divorced and has a lot of things he needs to get over.
I will however, suggest it to him this weekend.

We do have a married couples ministry at church, but this group is really not affliated to the church. These are a couple of ladies from my church. One of the ladies got the book and did the study, and suggested to the other lady...and here we are. It's only like 7 of us. The ladies did not rush into this...the fasted and prayed for months about who they would tell because they wanted it to be God's choice, not theirs. So you can still pray about it, get a couple of ladies and you all meet. I can get the name of the book for you if you are interested. This week was our first week meeting and let me say it was WONDERFUL. The group of course had a venting session about things they didn't like about what our husbands did. Then we all had to go around the circle and say something wonderful about your husband. From there we each prayed....We actually start doing the assignments on Monday. We also are going to all get on a conference call this Saturday morning to pray. So even if your Pastor does not want to do this through the church, there is nothing stopping you all from gathering to one another's house and doing the study.

Re: Dear So & So

Yes Soon, I am definitely interested in our book. Myself and some of the other members in our church have been trying to get a lot of activities going in our church. For whatever reason, our Pastor usually doesn't give us the green light. Our church is small (150 members) and people are leaving because there is absolutely nothing going on there. We are planning to have a church meeting to address our concerns with our pastor, because church is about more than coming. It must be a blessing to the congregation, community, etc. Hopefully, God will open his eyes to a bigger vision. Please keep us in your prayers.

Yes church is much much more then just going on Sunday. You need to have ministries that people can relate to, that can draw people. If nothing changes...then NOTHING CHANGES you know. I a member of a very BIG church. We have two locations and a total of about 10,000 members, but my Pastor make it his mission to have things to make the church seem smaller. Ministries so if you come to the church you won't feel swallowed by the number of people and most of the times that 10,000 membership is only seen on Sunday. Not at the revivals, or bible studies, church outings etc...so to me the church does not even seem big. We have zip code ministries, single ministries, couple's ministries (those that think they are ready for that next step), married ministries, widow minitries, youth ministries, pace-setter ministries (those 60 and over...prime timer ministries (45-60)...and a whole HOST of others. All of this is to make people feel welcomed, so people at different stages in their life can relate to others that may have gone through the same thing. I mean it's really important the church reach out to everyone. So I will definitley keep you and your church in prayer. Pray that God will open the mind of your Pastor so your church can get ALL that God had planned for it!!!

Soon, I'm very sorry to hear what you're going thru. That's a lot to weigh on your mind and cause you stress. You're taking it to the right one. I will keep you in prayer, sistah. Just remember that when it seems that there's no hope, God provides miracles for us all. He might not answer our prayers in the manner we think He should or in the time that we want them answered, but He always answers them right on time in the right way. You have a blessing coming. I can feel it.

Thanks Vi, I'm trying to have strong faith and not worry about it, but sometimes it just gets too much. Even with all of that I know he is in control, I just need to try and give it all to Him.

Dear Vibride sisters:

I broke the screen on my laptop about 2 weeks ago so I won't be online that often. I found out that it's cheaper to buy another computer than to fix the one that I have. I can only access the internet if I go to the truckstop or public library. Money's tight now but I hope to purchase another laptop soon.

Love and miss you all!

Born Blessed!

Re: Dear So & So

Dear So-full-of-yourself-you-don't-realize-nobody-likes-yo-azz coworker,
I guess you figured since I sit quietly and mind my own business that I don't know whats going on. Oh yeah, that's right, you didn't know I have nine years on your NKOTB azz! How dare you listen to my phone call and tell me which assignments I should take. WHO IN THE HELL ARE YOU!?! Talking about, 'you don't allow them to break your days of up, you demand them back to back'. How long have you been with the company? Oh, one year, uh huh. And lets see, there are how many control towers are there? Seven, uh huh. And you're qualified to work in how many? ONE?! You don't demand anything. Let me explain; While you think you're more superior to me because you've only seen me twice, don't get it twisted. If I desire back to back days off, they'd be mine before you had a snowballs chance in hell at them. Furthermore, I'm qualified at six of the seven control towers. So your little comment about them sending you to train where you are because they recognize talent....LOL!!! Pleez, the recognize you live four miles away trainee. And while you're training and back to backin', hold on to this thought; there are a lot of operators out here with way more talent than you, we're the ones making the real paper.
Have a nice day...

Living my life like it's GOLDEN!!
