Thoughts.com Blogs - Angel's journey

Friday was a super light day at work everything was going so smoothly that I decieded to cut the team loose to start thier weekend early. Instead of going home to thier families, they decided to visit Lost Soul and harrass him for shutting them out. This group I work with makes a three ring circus seem like a calm stroll in the park and yes I am the ring leader sometimes I often wonder how the other teams view us. Then again I really don't care because whatever it takes to keep my team's creative juices flowing then why not have a silly moment here and there. I have that creativity and stress should not Tango together. Who would want to deal with a Stress- ativity baby? I should would not. I call to make sure that the team is allowed to visit. The good news was Lost Soul was being discharged. I arranged for the company van to pick him up and giving him time to catch up with his team members. I speed my florist peeps for all the balloons, fruit basket, and flowers to be delivered to his house so he knows without a doubt in his mind that there are people in this cold world that loves and care about him. I called his mother to let her know that she could rest because her son was being taken care of. I could her the relief in her voice as she thank me. Not a problem....it is the least I can do that is my reply to her. I make sure that they have enough money to treat him to a real meal. Some of my team members can throw down in the kitchen. Everyone choose what they were going to do and then they me that I was not invited. I was really surprise but then they let me in on a little secret. I need to go be with Angel and kiss the girls for them. Cool ........ I let them know that I will call to make sure that they are behaving them selves. After making sure, they had everything they needed......they shooed me out of my office. They are so mean to me.....LoL!!!!!!

My daughter called me from school to remind me it was Clueless weekend with the girls. I did not forget I was just a littl aprehensive about it that's all. She told me something that calmed me down just a little bit. They were going to thier great aunt's house. I knew this aunt and how she operates. OK so I realeased my butterflies within my stomache. The girls had everything that was needed for thier trip. No worries there. I still wanted to be close by to see the girls off;however, I knew that was not possible because of the complex restraining order that still in place. No worries. The girls will call me when they get to thier Mimi's house and call again when he comes to pick them up. I pulled up in my drive way to find Attorney and Angel sitting on my porch relaxing. I had to laugh when I saw them ,for they looke like they had been in somebody's war zone. I asked them if they wanted to come in. They both shook thier no. I must admit it was a nice beautiful day outside. I took 3 bottles of Green Tea out side and joined them outside. We inquired about each other's day. I noticed that these two sceemers were trying to keep a straight face about something. I demeaded to know what they were with holding from me. They both burst with laughter as Angel told me that the news. Angel has decided to let Attorney and Husband adopt her children. Words could not express my feelings at that moment. This was indeed an exhale moment. I asked Angel how did the children and her mother reacted to the news. She told me they were happy and her mother cried out of relief. I am giving my mother a trip around the world. My sister will get the house when she gets out of the service. My sister will want that too. My kids will have everything set up for them. Thank you, Attorney for your legal knowledge and Nubian.....thank you for always hookin' a sistah up. We laughed bowed before each other. Angel's cell had rung. It was her mother on the other end asking her if she wanted to go to a casino resort. She was up for the challenged but vowed that she was not leaving without Attorney and myself. All I had to do was drop off Tag at her Mimi's house then I was clear. Attorney called to check with hubby to see if he had any plans for them this weekend. Hubby had plans with daughter to get her out of the funk she was in. Shopping,dinner, movie then more shopping should do the trick. What really baffled us all was that Hubby had invited Man Child to with them as well. That outing seemed interesting before it got started. Attorney was clear to g and always keep a spare bag of things needed for days like these. I packed a few things and gave Angel one of my signature wigs to put on. I have alot of hair on my head and I wear wigs from time to time. Times that I don't feel like combing my hair or when I want to wear a short style without cutting my hair. Hey, don't knock it until you try it !! She put on the wig on and it was a perfect match for her. Angel asked me to be her personal stylist for this trip. I don't mind helping others to see thier true beauty. We were off to see the wizard.

We arrive at the house. Her mom all dressed down with her demin suit. Rushing us to get in the car because her money hand is itching. I asked Angel's mom if she wanted me to drive. Before she answered me she asked me Do you drive like old people or fierce old people? I had to laugh but Angel told her mom that I am the driver she needed to be on her team. I was told that the drive was suppose to be a 3 hour drive but somehow we arrive to our destination in 2 hours. We got settled then rested up a little bit.

Angel hooked up her oxygen tank between the stale air and the smoke she would not have a good time. Girlfriend was ready to party. Momma A ( Angel's mom) hooked us up with cards so that we card rack up points and get free things, then told us what time she woud us at the entrance. Either the 3 of us were gamblers so we figured what hell...why not just try our luck. The 3 of us posted up at the slot machine and went to town. Gaining then losing. Gaining more then losing again. Gaining more and more. I realized that I was getting tired. I won $150 off of $24. Attorney and Angel won $160 using the same amount that I did. We were tired and a little hungry. It was time for Angel's cocktail of meds and Momma A was on the roll winning $500. She gave her winnings to us so she could continue on with her socializing with her social group. The 3 decided to go back to the room to eat and have a little girl time.. There is more to say but I have to eat......
