hotrdumommy from A-Z

I ♥ The Dog With The Shifty Eyes


Hello my lovely's! I saw this A-Z blog on Handbags and Handguns (I love her blog. It is funny, insightful, and really picks me up on a long day). I decided to insert my answers for all of you who are curious....

A. Age: 30

B. Bed size: Queen size but want a California King Bed (cue Rhianna)

C. Chore you dislike: Doing laundry. I hate hauling it down the stairs. I hate sorting it. I hate folding it and I hate putting it away. I do like the smell of detergent though...

D. Dogs: No dogs personally (Lovey won't let me have one) but I love my aunt's dog Barnaby. And my mom's dog Whitey (RIP Whitey) 

E. Essential start to your day: Teeney Tiny starts whimpering around 7:00 am. If Lovey is off work, then the smell of breakfast gets me going. 

F. Favorite color: Pink (which I hated until I became a Phi Mu) 

G. Gold or silver: You would think with my skin tone gold, but I'm a silver kind of girl.

H. Height: 5'4"

I. Instruments you play(ed): Clarinet, Viola

J. Job title: Right now Stay At Home Mom but I'm working on it

K. Kids:  Itty Bitty-2 and Teeney Tiny-3 months

L. Live: Raleigh, NC

M. Mom’s name: Korri (It's pronounced Kah-ree but everybody says Core-Ree)

N. Nicknames: So many nicknames (Affie, Bean, Beenie Weenie (thanks Dad), Mosley, Mose, Big Itty Bitty (thanks Mom), Aflac)

O. Overnight hospital stays: 3 for my back, 2 for my c-sections

P. Pet peeves: people who pop their knuckles, people who call but don't leave a message, online "tough guys" and drama queens

Q. Quote from a movie: Just one? Well okay it's more of a dialogue but it's still my favorite. "Whoa what the hell are you doing to the ni**a's towel?" "I'm drying my hands." "You're supposed to wash them first." "You saw me wash them." "I watched you get them wet." "Well this blood is hard to wash off. Maybe if I had some Lava." "Hey I used the same soap as you and when I finished the towel didn't look like no goddamn maxi pad!" Samuel L. Jackson is a genius!!

R. Righty or lefty: Righty

S. Siblings: 3 brothers 1 sister

T. Time you wake up: 7:00 am (when Lovey is working) 9:00 (when he's not)

U. Underwear: mainly boyshorts because they are comfortable

V. Vegetables you don't like: Squash

W. What makes you run late: The kids

X. X-rays you’ve had: back x-rays and a few head scans

Y. Yummy food you make: Lasagna and Gooey Toffee Butter Cake

Z. Zoo animal favorites: Polar Bears

*I wanted to direct your attention to the pic at the top. It's from the scene on the Simpsons when Homer and Mel Gibson remade Mr. Smith Goes To Washington. Homer had suggested the villain in the movie be a dog with shifty eyes and at the end of the episode, we were indulged with a shifty eyed dog*

If 30 Is The New 20 Then I'm 20 On 4/20♥♥♥


Well peeps. I'm 30 today. I can honestly say that I didn't think I would live to see it. Anyone who knows my background and what I've gone through can attest to that. All I can do is thank God for seeing me through those hard times and showing me that my life is worth living and I still have more living to do. My twenty's did kick serious ass though. I graduated from college, started a career, started a family, started this blog LOL!! What do my thirties hold for me? Well if the world doesn't end anytime soon I see myself getting into YouTube videos that will make people think and crack up at the same time. I see myself having one more baby (me and PJ love making babies because we make the cutest ones I swear). I envision going to Italy and Las Vegas (even though I have to fly which I'm not happy about). And of course I see myself blogging a whole lot more than what I've been doing (I'm a social deadbeat LOL!!). Well that's about it. In my next post I'll talk about what I did for my birthday. I can say that PJ cooked me a bangin surf 'n' turf dinner that I'll have pics of. Well I'm off like a dirty shirt!!

Mr. Nice Guy-Party Accesories

P.S. I'm aware that my birthday is also on 4/20. Back in my 20's I participated but now that I'm a wife and mother, it's not for me anymore. But if you still celebrate then rock out with your cock out. It's all love "B". I love Half Baked. To me it's one of the best stoner movies around ♥
