Yesterday was the day!

Wow! My baby girl has reached a goal! She is walking yall!

She has been taking little baby steps here and there, the max 3 or 4...would stumble and then cheat and start crawling again!

I did one of my daily calls yesterday to my mom AKA Grandma AKA Babysitter...and she told me Bre has been walking around everywhere and that they have something to show me when I get home!

Me and Reg got to my moms house yesterday evening, and there she was walking to us! She was SO excited! LOL! It was SO funny...tongue hanging out her mouth...toes planted into the ground for support and balance! LOL! She is SO determined! When she falls, she gets RIGHT back up, kinda with a hop to it and starts all over! There is no stopping her now.

Nalla (her dog) better watch out...next thing I know, Nalla will be running from her or in hiding as Bre will be trying to climb on her back to "ride" her! LOL! She already tries to give Nalla her babydolls, her blanket and has even tried her pacifier. I can see it now, Bre at the table, slipping Nalla the food she doesn't particularly care for.

Time to baby proof stuff everywhere now, especially since she can reach knobs on doors..

Yeah! Proud mommy!

Feeling the Pain...

I really don't know where to start...

Today, I have had an emotional rollercoaster...

First I get a call from my husband sounding all down, I think after he put almost $100 in his tank and to top that off he told me the "check engine" light came one. Okay...great...
I felt bad because I need to remind him that we are not in this boat alone. I think every middle class citizen is in the same boat we are baby and we are gonna be okay.

Today was payday and after I pulled out our bills I almost started to cry myself...it just doesn't make any sense...Where is my rebate check is the first thing that crossed my mind. My baby girls birthday is coming up and as alot of you may be saying..."she won't remember!" But dang it...I WILL! I do not want to short change my baby girl..she deserves a party.. =)

So...after work...I had to go pick up my car at the dealership and dropped $113 for a simple oil change. Asking why I went to the dealership for an oil change? Because it takes synthetic oil and alot of it...V8. So I gotta take care of the car.

Still need to go grocery shopping, pay the baby sitter, moms bday is tomorrow along with their 21 wedding anniversary...and still leave money in the account for her party.

Did I mention I am falling apart? I am not even 30 yet! Imagine this...put on your imagination cap....I am walking around my house limping, in underwear, smelling like an IceyHot spill! I think I pulled something in my leg and it hurts...bad...so I put extra muscle relaxer on...hopefully it feels better, cause its not a good look!

Last week I was really swollen from water retention...from my monthly friend that comes to visit. I never retain water like that! Ever...I told my mom, "Mom, I never retain like this!" She says, "Well baby, you never been almost 30 before either...." What could I say to that??

I'm falling apart yall!
I know I was all over the place here in this entry...just venting...

Can I get my rebate check!

Gotta go...prayers out to everyone..

XOXO!t

Huge Disappointment in Laker-ville

Now...I really REALLY don't need any hater'ish like comments.


BUT I DO have to admit that the Celtics played a really good game, and they really did give us a nasty spanking. I am hoping that the Lakers learned from this.


I am disappointed because the Lakers DID NOT play their best games...they acted as if they weren't in the playoffs!? Every game they would be up by a handful pf points then back down again by more than a handful of points. Why did we lose by 39 points? Ridiculous...I am not sure what was goin on, but those weren't the Lakers I know. A few people were NOT on their toes, pretty much sucking to say the least. Not to sure what Gasol was doin, Odum was disappointing me and Walton was trippin too.


Its okay to critique...but you guys didn't do your job very well. We were trying to make history, but failed BIG TIME.


On the flip side, Celtics took it home and they played hard for it. I am happy for them cause ITS ABOUT DAMN TIME!! LOL! No but seriously, Garnett FINALLY got what he has been working for all these years! Good job all you green men out there!








Last but not least....I was born into a Laker family, I will always be a Laker fan no matter what happens! Thats the diffeence between me and alot of those bandwaggoners OR haters just to be haters! Hell, alot of haters don't even have a team! They just root against mine! But whatever! LOL! It's okay. It just wasn' our time!


Sorry Laker Fans, no parade this year...

Entertainment 4-1-1 (June 2008)

Will R Kelly go down? Will he be found guilty in his child pornography trial? We are awaiting the outcome and the jury verdicts. Kelly was accused of having sex and videotaping his antics with a young teen girl. Kelly says it's not him on the tape. The alleged victim says it's not her. (I guess we know what happened here....what $$$ can do right?

Actress Lisa Raye McCoy Missick has had enough. After months of embarrassment and scandal, she is ready to throw in the towel on her marriage to the Prime Minister of the Turks and Caicos Islands. Even though he proclaimed his innocence in a recent sex scandal, just knowing that he cheated on her and participated in wild parties while she was away was enough to make Lisa say I Don't Need This Nonsense. The marriage started out as a fairytale. The wedding ceremony was spectacular, but the nightmare started for the couple soon after. For months, she has kept a stiff upper lip and tried to go on with her life, but she feels as though the prime minister humiliated her. How can she keep up the façade and go on with a charade of a marriage?

Is Evander Holyfield broke? He says no, but court records and the baby mammas say otherwise. His $10 million home in Georgia is facing foreclosure and some of his baby mammas were told not to look for any money in May or June. Holyfield is trying some new business ventures to get back on track. In his prime, he made millions boxing, and he made thousands for appearing on Dancing With The Stars. Where did his money go?

Singer Keyshia Cole is also having money problems. Her manager was recently caught writing bad checks setting Keyshia back $100,000.

50 Cent and the burned down home? A judge recently ruled that the rapper cannot sell the home. If he collects any insurance money, he must turn it over to a trust fund. The rapper's $2 million Long Island home burned to the ground last week. His baby momma, their ten-year old son, her boyfriend and another child were in the home at the time of the fire. Police suspect arson and the baby momma has blamed the 50 because he wanted her out of the house.

Is Queen Latifah about to make a life change? According to published reports, she is ready to marry her longtime Personal Trainer Jeanette Jenkins. The two have been close for five years, and they reside in homes on the east and west coast. Latifah has never commented on her personal life, and she has not officially come out of the closet. Is she getting married? Latifah doesn't want anything to overshadow her career. She doesn't want to be known for her sexuality. She has a lot of projects going on, including a new perfume line set to launch next year. She is also a spokesperson for Cover Girl cosmetics and Jenny Craig. She has never felt the need to go public with her private life. So, if she does get married, she will do it in private.

Janet Jackson is not happy with her record company. She feels Def Jam Records has let her down. Jackson's boyfriend, Producer Jermaine Dupri, is one of the company's label chiefs, so you can imagine there is a lot of tension between the two. Last week, Jackson blasted the company saying that they stopped promoting her latest album Discipline. The album came out in February, and so far has only sold 392,000 copies. Jackson says she will continue to go ahead with her world tour, but she may not be able to tour Europe. Janet is due here on October 2nd at the Wachovia Center. Reps for Def Jam say they are disappointed as well, but they still respect and support Janet. Jackson needs to pick up the phone and call Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. She had major success with them. Let Dupri be your boyfriend, but go back to Jam and Lewis if you want a hit!

In other Jackson family news, filming has begun on the new Jackson family reality show. The show will start out with Tito and his three sons and is being filmed in England.

Bobby Brown's son Landon is following in his father's footsteps. Like his father, he likes to kiss and tell. In a recent interview, Landon bragged about sleeping with Lindsey Lohan, and how his stepmom, Whitney Houston, never liked him. Landon talked about growing up with his famous dad and their crazy life. At the moment, Bobby is getting his life together. He just signed a deal with the CMT network for a new reality show. The show, Outsiders Inn, will pair him with Actress Maureen McCormick ("Marcia" of The Brady Bunch). The show debuts August 15th, and will show them running a southern bed and breakfast.

The war of words heated up over the weekend between Directors Clint Eastwood and Spike Lee. In this corner, there's Eastwood with his World War II drama Flags Of Our Fathers. Lee says Eastwood should be ashamed for not having blacks in the movie. Eastwood responded Lee should shut his face because it was his duty to tell an accurate story. He says Lee has not liked him since Eastwood directed the movie Bird about the great Jazz Musician Charlie "Bird" Parker. Lee is currently working on his own World War II movie. Lee's movie, The Miracle Of St. Anna, will tell the story of the all black squad of The 92nd Buffalo Division. These were the men who fought the Germans in Italy during World War II. In other Spike Lee news, he says lack of funding is keeping him from starting his proposed movie about the life of James Brown. Lee is also working with Cookie and Magic Johnson on a series of public service announcements regarding HIV awareness.

Usher gave a surprising interview to Cosmopolitan magazine. He revealed he is not good at being in love, and it's hard being faithful. Does his wife Tameka have reason to worry? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Actor Darius McCrary is fighting charges that he attacked his girlfriend video vixen Karrine Steffans. Steffans claims McCrary beat her up and ran her over with his car. McCrary says these charges are not true. He describes Steffans, who goes by the nickname Superhead, as a crazed stalker who abuses her ten-year old son. McCrary is best known as "Eddie Winslow" on the TV show Family Matters. Steffans is known for her celebrity tell-alls.

So how did Prince celebrate his birthday? The world famous musician recently turned 50, and had a quiet celebration with two female friends.

Don't look for Actor Terrence Howard to return to Broadway. Howard is about to end his run in the Broadway revival of Cat On A Hot Tin Roof. Howard says he will never do Broadway theatre again. He says the schedule was tough, and the experience left him depressed and exhausted. He stated doing eight shows a week was like slavery.

Get well wishes go out to actress Stacey Dash. Dash was recently injured on the set of Celebrity Circus. Dash broke three ribs during a stunt.

Rodney King is coming to reality TV. In 1992, his videotaped beating by L.A. cops led to the L.A. riots. Since that incident, he has been in rehab, and has had numerous run ins with the law. King is hoping the TV route will help him. He is going to be a part of the cast VH1's Celebrity Rehab.

4-1-1 ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE WEEK OF JUNE 2ND, 2008

Who burned down the house? Rapper 50 Cent's Long Island multi-million dollar home burned to the ground last week. This was the house he was fighting his baby momma over. He wanted her out of the house, and now she is. Shaniqua Tompkins says the rapper threatened her, and she believes he started the fire. Officials have ruled arson as the cause, and a 5 gallon gas container was found on the property. Tompkins has a ten-year old son by 50. She says he never called to check on his son, who suffered smoke inhalation. Reps for 50 Cent say he was on location in Louisiana filming a movie. Someone set the fire, and whoever did is going to jail. Some sources are pointing fingers at Shaniqua, and they are still trying to figure out who owned the insurance policy on the home.

Mariah, watch your man! Friends of Mariah Carey are trying to warn the songstress to watch her man. Ever since Mariah Carey married Nick Cannon, he has been spending her money like crazy: the cars, the jewelry, and the clothes! He has been on a tear with her money. One friend described it as watching a mad man who knows the gravy train will end soon, so he is going to get all he can get. Is Nick a spendthrift with her money, or is he a man who loves her and shopping too. Is Nick taking advantage of Mariah's generosity?

The R Kelly sex trial took an interesting turn this past week. The surprise witness was a woman who came forward claiming that she was involved in three-way sex sessions with Kelly and the accused victim. The woman says she was 17 at the time, and she says she had sex three times with Kelly and the girl. She says Kelly loves to videotape himself, and he always carries a camera and his secret porn stash with him at all times. When asked why she would come forward now, she says it was the right thing to do. The alleged sessions took place in the late 90's.

The response to our Oprah question was amazing….you responded by the hundreds! And yes, I answered all the emails. I thank you, thank you, thank you! Your responses were interesting. Many of you felt like I did: I feel despite criticism, Oprah will be just fine. I heard from a lot of Hillary Clinton supporters. I heard from a lot of Christians who are not comfortable with Oprah's constant talk of new age spirituality. I heard from a lot of men who feel she doesn't connect with them. I heard from people who claim they were bored with the recent shows that didn't address their needs or issues. The majority feel the media is not fair to Oprah and are just jealous of her success. It was so good hearing from people from all over. Even when we agree to disagree, it's all good. I love the responses, so keep in touch: HYPERLINK "mailto:Pattyj1053@aol.com" Pattyj1053@aol.com. This week: what do you think about Hillary Clinton? Do you think she will get over losing the democratic presidential nomination?

Producer Nile Rodgers is ready to tell all. The award-winning songwriter/producer and founder of Chic has an amazing story to tell. He was born to a 14-year old teenage mother, and he starting using drugs when he was 13.

Wesley Snipes is set to star with Ethan Hawke in the cop drama Brooklyn's Finest. So what about his prison sentence? He is working while he is out on bail and his case is in appeal.

Bobby Brown slams Usher in his new book, Being Bobby Brown. Brown describes Usher as Mini-Me. He says Usher basically stole his act. Bobby also describes an altercation he had with the younger R&B sensation saying that Usher was drunk and came at him talking crazy. I remember this incident, and it was the other way around. But, this is Bobby's recollection, so I digress. Check out Usher on the latest issue of Vibe magazine.

KeKe Palmer is going to be the next Nickelodeon star. The 15-year old star of Akeelah And The Bee will be starring on her new show, True Fashion. The show is set in the fashion world. Palmer will also be starring in the movie Long Shots. She'll play the first female quarterback in Pop Warner football history.

Nicole Ari Parker is joining the cast of the new Damon Wayans comedy Never Better. Parker will plays Wayans' wife. In the show, Wayans plays a recovering alcoholic who is trying to be a better husband and father.

Will Smith's new movie Hancock opens in theatres on July 2nd. In a recent interview, Smith says he would love to do another Bad Boys movie with Martin Lawrence.
Janet Jackson's world tour is coming to Philly in October.

Congratulations to Babyface. He's going to be a dad again. The 50- year old singer/songwriter and producer is having a baby with his longtime girlfriend, a 35-year old dancer. This will be Babyface's third child. He has two sons by ex-wife Tracey Edmonds.

Singer Clay Aiken from American Idol fame is also going to be a dad. The 29-year old Aiken is having a baby with his best friend, a 50-year old record producer who worked on his last two albums. The two live together in Los Angeles, and they are having the baby via artificial insemination.

Sean Levert's widow, Angela Lowe, has filed a wrongful death suit against the county officials who were holding him when he got sick. Levert died March 30th at the age of 39. The coroners report said he died of natural causes. According to Lowe, prison officials showed no regard to Levert's medical needs. At the time of his death, he was suffering from high blood sugar and high blood pressure, and Levert was serving a 22-month jail sentence for nonpayment of child support.

Congrats to former 76er Chris Webber. He recently got married to his longtime girlfriend.

Toni Braxton's health problems are sidelining the singer. Her one woman show in Las Vegas has been cancelled. In April, Braxton had to be hospitalized for chest pains. Braxton suffers from a viral inflammation of the heart, and she has to adhere to her doctors' orders and get her strength back.

Vivica A. Fox's new reality show,VH1 Glam God, is set to debut in August. Fox is excited about her new TV show, which is on the hunt for the next great celebrity stylist.

London born Actor Idris Elba is the talk of the town in the United States. Best known for his role as "Stringer Bell" on the HBO critically-acclaimed show The Wire, he is now branching out to the big screen. In the next year, he has three movies scheduled, including the thriller Prom Night, Obsession with Beyonce and Rock N Rolla with Director Guy Ritchie. He's also in discussions about doing a movie based on the life of Basketball Great Michael Jordan.

New Edition turns 25.

New Edition will be getting The Golden Note Award. This award is given to songwriters, composers and artists who have achieved career milestones.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is a single man again. Johnson's divorce just became final. He will share custody of his seven-year old daughter with his ex-wife, and pay her $22,000 a month in child support. Johnson's new movie, Get Smart, opens in theatres on the 20th.

Will there be a sequel to Sex And The City. With the amazing success of the big screen movie, you can count on it. Did you like the movie? Would you like to see a part two? What happened to Actor Jason Lewis face? YUCK! Too much plastic surgery? He plays Samantha's young boyfriend. Smith he used to be so handsome now he just looks strange.

The music world lost a legend this past week with the passing of Guitar Great Bo Diddley. Known as "The Architect Of Rock & Roll," Diddley had a style all his own, and his influence is heard in many of the great Rock & Roll legends of today.
