🚨Marriage is something we rarely speak about opening to young adults. We may tell them to get married to have someone to build life with, but we never go into DETAILS.

I had 1-piece of ADVICE regarding marriage. (It’s not what you may think!)]

This part of my STORY will definitely be in several PARTS….Its too early to tell.

The Girl: Yes….
(That was it. I didn’t get a kiss back)

Later:
The Girl: Mom can I have a sleepover?

Me: not here. I still got stuff to do. (Unpack, take down Christmas decor, etc)

Shanah: So if my friend momma say I can come over, can I?

Me: YES.

I guess she said “your vacation might be over but mine not”

🚨At this point I had already talked to her about “What we gon eat for dinner”. I guess she had other plans. TF!!

🎆HOWDY YALL!

We are OFFICIALLY in 2024!

WITH that in mind, VALENTINES will be here in about 6-7 weeks. ❤️❤️

I just wanna GIVE some of y’all a couple REMINDERS🤷🏽‍♀️

1️⃣ Women are often compared to CATS….
2️⃣ Men are OFTEN compared to DOGS…
3️⃣ CATs are SNEAKY…
4️⃣ DOGs are LOYAL…
5️⃣ CATs dont chase DOGS
6️⃣ DOGs & CATS evidently GET ALONG…… they even SNUGGLE together….
7️⃣ A CAT will attack, especially if you back it in a CORNER!
8️⃣ A DOG will always try to PROTECT the ones it LOVE, even if it’s a SMALL DOG!
9️⃣ Both SPECIES wants to be LOVED!
1️⃣0️⃣ CATS and DOGS will LOVE you unconditionally!!

🐕‍🦺🦮Some BREDS of DOGs aren’t as TRAINABLE….

Some CATS….well…..🐈‍⬛🐈

I just know the last CAT I had attacked a man.
However, that same MAN…..

Moral of STORY:👀
When you decide to ADD to your FAMILY, choose WISELY!💅🏼

02/01/2024

🚨My APOLOGIES:
“Guy” in seat next to me.

I’ve been reading rooms a long time!⏰
(Check my resume)

The SUBURBAN Yasheka “says I’m sorry pardon me. Because that’s part of WHO I AM.”

(This feels DIFFERENT. People would never PICK you, as THAT GUY, READING this!!)

But here we ARE’

When our flight was EXTENDED before TAKEOFF, (as this is FLIGHT 2 of 2),I became a little PARCHED💦

I boarded the plane after “OUR” group was called.

💃🏻A LADY has to POWDER HER nose in between.

I like to be QUTE CUTE….at ALL TIMES 🥰

I noticed YOU were first perturbed, when I needed you to get YOUR A*Z up so I can get to my SEAT!

I interrupted you.

I love the WINDOW SEAT!
✈️I can’t FLY the PLANE but I still wanna KNOW what’s going on in case I need to PHONE A FRIEND. 👀

However, YASHEKA thats FROM the HOOD says:
“I get it, YOU WANTED TO be FIRST one in, 1st ONE OUT!

I can tell you were “TOP OF YOUR CLASS”
(I’m proud of you. And I don’t even know you)

That’s ALSO WHO I AM!
I LOVE 💕 seeing EVERYONE WIN!

But, learn to PICK YOUR POISON! CORRECTLY

YOU can’t have your CAKE and EAT IT too.

I mean.
You can.

Let me HELP you OUT!

Next time, BUY BOTH, SEATS 3A & 3B of the flight!

Or SIT your A*z next to the WINDOW!!

Because WHAT you WONT DO…..

……I’m ALSO A LADY!!

I see YOU!

I like you just the WAY you are. 🥰
Again I’ve never MET you.
But. I LOVE that for YOU!

In CLOSING.
We MEAN it when we say…….
Never mind!

Understand, I KNOW EXACTLY WHO I AM AND WHERE I BELONG!!

God BLESS AMERICA!!

THIS👏🏼IS👏🏼WHY👏🏼I👏🏼SERVED!

28/12/2023

🚨I got a notice from META!

👉🏽They said (my translation)
“You aren’t posting ENUFF of NOTHING”

Cont:
(still my TRANSLATION)

🤧”In fact, if you don’t know WHAT to post, WE got an ENTIRE library of EXAMPLES & ADVICE!!”

“SO 👏🏼DO👏🏼BETTER”

Me: SAY-LESS💃🏻

PS. I got a ✈️ to CATCH!
As I doing last minute tidy-up, my KITCHEN sink began to pour water! 💦

Idk what happened…..but had things been SMOOTH, it wouldn’t be my LIFE!!🤷🏽‍♀️🥰

28/12/2023

🚨Thinking:

I struggle with IMPULSE CONTROL.

I struggle with OVERTHINKING

I struggle with PROCRASTINATION

I struggle with SELF DOUBT

I struggle with OVER CONFIDENCE

I struggle with SAVIOR COMPLEX

I struggle with “DO I EVEN HAVE A HEART?”

I STRUGGLE……….

Yes. I know what some are thinking…..
What I need you to KNOW….

I NEVER STRUGGLE with PLEASING OTHERS!!

“I am WHO I am and I make NO EXCUSES”

Yasheka

27/12/2023

🚨Thinking out loud:

I love my JOB. 🤧
I really do. 🥰

They just gave me over $3k ANNUAL RAISE!💅🏼

I know it wasn’t based on my PERFORMANCE 🎭.

I think they just really APPRECIATE the work I’ve done for them in the PAST!🤷🏽‍♀️
(IYKYK)

27/12/2023

🚨Good Morning…..

PSA: Anyone over 50…..

Let’s stop playing games. 🤬

With the first couple words out they mouth, you know rather ”its a NO for you dawg”.

Say it and move on!!💃🏻🕺🏼

We 👏🏼don’t 👏🏼have 👏🏼time!!

That’s it. 🤷🏽‍♀️

🤧Return to regularly scheduled programs. 👾
