I so, so, would like to get back to the art of crocheting. I don’t know how hook up sweaters or items that require complex stitching patterns, but when it comes down to making anything square (pot-holders, scarves, and blankets, kitchen rugs, etc.) I’m your girl. *lol* Problem is, I start a project and rarely finish it. Probably because I have the attention span of a 3 year old. But if I can just step up my dedication a little bit, ya’ll know I’d be rockin’ some bomb designs. It’s really not that hard. I just need to stop B.S.’n… A sister aint got arthritis. I do have some time. I also have a creative flair, so what am I waiting for?

Q. Where’d I learn to twist up some yarn?
A. The Juvenile Detention Center circa 1986.

But that’s story for another time.

I’ve calmed down over the years. I don’t clown nearly as hard as I use to. But still. Watch your mouth around me, yo. Be careful what you say - especially when uterus is gearing up for several days of war. Them raging hormones have me feeling like I want to stab a mf’rs face off and then grab a box of tissue so I can mourn their death all at once.

Truth is, I aint got the gusto to do neither, because I’m too broken down (to bone gristle) with aches, pains and fatigue and shit.

Then again, you just never know, I just might muster up enough strength to lay hellafied the smack down on that ass. So play your cards right. *wink*

But anyhoo,
