Who Needs Friends??

I’ve NEVER found it easy to make friends. In fact I can count on one hand how many friends I have. I’m not a social out cast I’m not a stalker I’m not someone who is so outgoing that no one else can get a word in edge wise. I’m not a back stabber. I don’t fish in conversations to catch the weekly gossip bug. Sometimes I’m shy, – if I don’t know you. I tell it like it is, I’m caring, I’m helpful, I’m creative, and most of all I’m a good person.

But that’s because my nana gave me my pearls – they were hers when she was little. I’ve always wondered how everyone defines their… Read More

Cardi: Down East, Shirt: F21, Jeans: Buckle, Flats: Nine West, Necklace/Earrings: Gifted Can you believe it’s March already? This year has really flown by already! Crazy isn’t it? I’ve noticed lately that I haven’t been making very nice comments towards people I don’t know. I noticed this the other day when I said something I shouldn’t have. I stopped and thought to myself about how I would feel if someone said that about me. Now let me say that I do not cuss and I am not an outspoken person. But what I said was… Read More
