I understand you Kim. I do think random folks be asking private questions waaaay too often. People are so use to being so open and loud but some of us like being private.
Ur son is so smart. My daughter, who's now an adult, taught herself Japanese and Korean as a child. She was so great at it that when she was in middle school, she was the translator for the Japanese students who came to her school each year. She was in a magnet school n it was a treat to see this black girl walk around with all of the Japanese student visitors, giving them a tour of the school and speaking their language. I'll ask her if ur sons writing is as good as i think it is bc she also learned to write the language as well.
I can completely relate to loving houses-I’m a huge fan of HGTV, and House Hunters is my absolute favorite. A few years back, my husband encouraged me to go to real estate school to become an agent. I took an online course, passed the exam on my first try (I’ve heard so many stories of people needing multiple attempts!), and got my license. I soon realized that selling homes wasn’t really my passion, so I transitioned into property management. It’s incredibly rewarding and can be quite lucrative! And if you’re ever hesitant to share your job title, you can always say you’re an entrepreneur or business owner. Stay-at-home mom? You can proudly call yourself “domestic engineer”! 😂
Congratulations on your mention in the Memoir - why would you be so surprised to have found out how influential you are?! You’re an amazing role model and I am really blessed to have found your channel years ago to witness your journey. That has inspired me to push myself and optimise what I have and enjoy stretching towards greater! Congrats Kim ❤🎉😊
Hey, I am new here...ya just popped up on my feed. Several years ago, I saw a post on FB about keeping a gratitude jar (every time something good happens throughout your day, you write it on a slip on paper and put it in the jar). They mentioned that you fill up the jar and read it at the end of the year. My husband and I read all of our entries on New Years Eve. It is something that we really look forward to! The more you look for things to be grateful for, the more they happen to you! Last thing, look for the simple things-good service at a restaurant, a sale, a beautiful sight in nature. Gratitude is the key to a happy life!❤🙏
Gratitude journal is definitely what I should look into doing. I love the quote by Mckeown ‘if you focus on what you have, you get what you lack. If you focus on what you lack, you lose what you have.’ By embracing my blessings, I believe my perspective on my life will improve. Love your vlog. Keep posting such positive content!
Congratulations on you being mentioned in the doctors memoir, what an honor. U don’t have to tell people what u do if u do t want to. I love the furniture outside, it looks great!😊
Be aware that the back of those sambas will eat your upper heal up… I saw a hack… use a hair dryer to soften that part and bend it back and forth! Also if you have an arch in your foot.., these are very flat! I bought them a week ago!
Hi Kim!!! You're such an amazing person! Im 33, and I've watched you for years, mainly watching your makeup videos. I must say i love your videos it always gives peace. Blessings to you!!❤
Gratitude journaling every day is something I want to incorporate more, thank you for sharing. I hate that work question too, it has been asked frequently more because most people are nosey & don’t understand/ know how to communicate. So, I keep it basic & to the point, unless I know you on another level/ I bring it up. My family & friends love asking, but there are so many things we can talk about so I am learning to be ok with answering with small answers.😅😂 Congratulations on being in a memoir, that's great! You are that woman, you have inspired me as well, so give yourself recognition you deserve it. 😊❤👏🏽🙌🏽
Congratulations on you being mentioned in a memoir!🎉😊 You shouldn't be surprised, love your channel. You are so positive, and inspiring.I have to mention the picture behind you changes scenery (love it!) where can I find something like that? Also the apple don't fall from the tree, your son I'm sure he gets a lot of his smarts from mom, and dad you should be so proud of him.😊 Keep on doing what you do. When people question you about your work and you being off work the answer you gave was perfect and honest. If they want to know what you do, just say, not trying to be rude but it's personal.
We say gym shoes in Chicago. You can tell people you’re a stay at home Mom, or my job is a personal assistant for my company I do everything on my own. Happy Thanksgiving! Thankful for your channel 🙏🏾
Hi Kim so enjoyed your vlog protect your peace!!!!! It’s none of their business what you do, you’re your own boss or simply say I rather not talk about my work and keep a beautiful smile and change the subject 🤗😍💪🏿💪🏿 beautiful home you’re doing an amazing job with the house 🤲🏾💪🏿♥️♥️
Hi Kim. I’ve missed your videos. I just started a TH-cam channel. I wish my channel will be successful like yours. You are very entertaining to watch. Wish me luck. It’s about Radiology so I’m not sure how many people will tune in and watch, but I will say one of your videos that you made about pursuing your passions really helped me start and just put out content that I’m interested in.
I grew up saying "tennis shoes" too...maybe it's a southern thang as I am from TN. Love the gratitude journal idea. I will definitely try. I absolutely love your channel. Keep up the good work. Continued blessings!
I’m so glad you got a shout out in the memoir. You deserve it. You are the first video I watched that started me on my natural hair journey as well. It was the one about how to add Marley hair to do twists (about 10 or more years ago!).
The irony of on the 1 hand you not wanting to tell pple what you do, and pn the other hand, what you do is so impactful that you're influential in such an accomplished person's memoir. Congratulations to her and you on your continued success.
The Gratitude Journaling is so powerful. I love that you are doing that. I am so happy to hear that positive things are happening for you. I definitely need to re-start mine. I love all your videos. I love your food videos. Will you be able to post any Thanksgiving vegan ideas or what you and your family ate for the holiday? I would love to see that. Happy Thanksgiving Eve to you and your Beautiful Family. I am grateful for you and your content. ❤🙏🏼🫶
Hey Kim! You are hilarious! I recommend saying that you are a serial entrepreneur or an entrepreneur when people ask what do you do. Usually when people can’t answer what they do for work either do not have a job or what they do is scammy lol so that is why they avoid the question.
@@TheOsatohanmwen True, but a person can choose to not keep the conversation going. Once the initial question was answered that should be enough. Ex: “I’m a serial entrepreneur or entrepreneur. I appreciate you for asking & I hope that you have a great day.”
Hey Kim! So, nice to wake up to your vlog ❤ I would suggest you telling people you work for Google. Ideally, you do if you really think about it. Of course, no depth is needed thereafter
Oh...that tour in someone's home is something I used to do when I first moved into my first home. I was still looking inside other new homes in different neighborhoods in GA. There was a country club not far from where I used live called, Heron Bay in Locust Grove, GA. They started building the million dollar homes . My son and I used to go look inside and they were the first homes we saw with theater rooms. We once got caught by a realtor. He was so nice and asked us to follow him to look inside another million dollar home. He said, he's careful abt ppl he meets because you might be a potential client one day. I wish had the money to buy one of them just to give him the sale. It was shocking too because being black and he was white, it could have gotten real ugly.
HEY KIM USE THE DANESSA MYRICKS BLURRING BALM AS A PRIMER IN THE TRANSLUCENT SHADE! TRUST ME IT LOOKS GREAT AND IT MAKES MY MAKE UP LAST THEOUGH THE DAY
I understand. It’s like get out my business! Just tell them that you’re a SAHM. I don’t think that lends to a lot of follow-up questions outside of how many kids or their ages.
I’m very private. I don’t disclose certain parts of my life with people. I give a very general description. For example, “I’m in law enforcement.” I don’t expound if they continue inquiring. I simply state “I’d rather not share any further details.” At this point in my life, I honestly don’t care about anyone being offended when it comes to my personal life.
I use the Lancôme La Base primer and I think it’s very long lasting. I have combination skin. *You are a Content Creator that helps to improve women lives💕 Congratulations on being featured in the memoir🎉
Congrats to the doctor on her memior and congrats to you for being in it! I agree with a lot of your viewers when they say tell people you are in marketing and advertising. I own a business and when I tell people that they ask a lot of questions and many people ask very personal questions 😒 I love the idea of the gratitude journal!! I'm going to start doing one ❤
I think being in the memoir is your answer. Had she not come across your channel, you would not have influenced her. Tell them what you do. I think you’re great as well.
WOW - A-mazing content today!!!! I don't know you but am so proud of you.. and the MD/Author. As well as your son... I absolutely love this today's share and tfs....stay blessed
Hi Kim! I've been lowkey checking for a video upload these last few weeks from you. You are definitely inspiring. Congratulations on the mention in the memoir. Now I have to buy it.
Hi Girl! Just tell people you work in Marketing. If they ask who you work for? Tell them Google. Technically you are marketing your brand on TH-cam (google) 😊
Congratulations on the mention in the memoir, proof that being true to yourself is powerful! In regards to the job question: you can refer back to roles you have held previously, you can simply say you freelance or do consulting work -again reference previous roles. Surface level answers for surface level questions. If anyone is digging deeper, they should be offering you employment or minding their own business, as there is more to their inquiry..😉
Congratulations! I watched all the way until the end and wanted to see how the cupcakes turned out after frosting them but the video abruptly ended😂. How did they taste?
Hi Kim! That random question thing is so true. I have had jobs that weren't really easy to explain like when someone is a nurse or even a bank teller. But even if you're honest and say, you're self employed, that's gonna open a whole new line of questions and ppl wanna find out your secret to success. Btw...I love that little vacuum. Do you have a air purifier in your home? I would love to invest in something like that but Dyson is outside of my tax bracket. lol!
Speaking of the job question... I get asked that a lot as well and I'm a stay at home mom.. the look I always get is so funny.. that answer makes people so uncomfortable and then they usually say, "good for you." 😂 😂 On another note.. I ALWAYS give people coupons I don't use in the store 😅 Im all about helping others save money if I don't need to lol I know the struggles real, might as well help lol
I literally sat up straight and pause the video when you mentioned when people ask about what you do for a living. The company I worked for 11yrs shut down. The blessing is I was planning on taking a career break this year or January 2025 anyway and with the company shutting down, I get a severance package, etc. which means I do not have to use the portion of my saved money set aside for this sole purpose unless I wish to extend my break. The minute I call my investment company housing 1 of my investments, the guy immediately asked if I found a job and it's been less than a week. The problem I have with America is people will not ask "How you are doing" FOR REAL or get to know you as a Real Person. America is stuck on "What's your Labor" before they will speak with you or give a concern. Other countries do not do that. Some countries want to really know if you are doing well and how they can help to make your stay in their homeland pleasant. We as human beings have so much creativity in how we live our personal lives that no one is interested unless you are getting an income. We are more than our Labor, which simply helps Finance our real lives outside of work which unfortunately no one cares about. In addition, everyone does not live paycheck to paycheck and can afford to take breaks. This is my 3rd career break in life, 1st was when I was 26 years young. I prefer to travel and see the world before I leave it. My recommendation is to response with, "I prefer to be asked genuinely how I am doing today and if you wish to ask what my interests are in life then ask. I prefer not to discuss my Labor as I'm here to relax and get my nails done. Have a wonderful day and I hope you are doing well mentally and physically genuinely." 😇 Just my 2 cents
Hi Kim I am loving the porch area I do love the black table set❤❤❤ happy holidays 🌲🦃 wow so happy for u for being a memoir u are really good at hair I have been watching u for years 😊
I agree about the work question. Especially from people who don’t know you or aren’t getting to know you. Feels like they’re being nosy or judgy. You can say you’re in marketing or freelancing or freelance marketing. Not untrue 🙃
I understand. My husband has an issue with those types of questions. He tells them, I don’t discuss my personal life. A lot of people get offended but some really understand. Especially a random person, like it’s none of your business.People like to pry and be nosey , some use what you tell them against you.😮😊😂😂
Congratulations on being in the memoir🎉 You have definitely been an inspiration! I have gone vegan for the month of November and you're on the list of what I eat in a day videos when I need some ideas. Also, I did a version of Dr. Bobby Price's herbal detox at the beginning of the month while eating clean in conjunction with diastasis recti exercises. I've had a mommy bulge for 3yrs and I gotta testify that after 25 days on this journey the results are amazing!!! Sending good energy to you and your upcoming fitness/wellness journey!
I never understand the secrecy behind revealing what you do for a living. The same with pay. People have ulterior motives, but others are genuinely interested in knowing the opportunities out there.
I can see where shes coming from. Why am I telling a total stranger my personal business just because they asked? Whole time I dont even know their name. Seems kinda entitled if someone takes offense to her wanting to maintain their privacy.
I purchased a new build townhome and moved in while the rest of the subdivision was under construction. The builder installed “private residence” signs in the front yards because prospective buyers were wandering the neighborhood. Yes someone tried to enter my home
This is so funny because I have the same issue when people ask me what I do. So my youngest stays home with me and I do the pick up for the other kids. However, I’m in school, I have my real estate license, and I have two small businesses that I’m trying to get rolling! Soooo… I’ve just started saying a general title that encompasses more than one thing. If I asked I can respond and say “business” or “real estate” lol I don’t know but I feel you!!😅
Think of it like a Starbucks name. You have a set name to give them when you go to Starbucks so they don't know your real name. Consultant works well. If they ask a follow up question you can say marketing consultant etc and your still not really sharing anything. It works well.😊
Tell them you’re a consultant….which you are because you educate, instruct, market, and advise. That’s what I tell people. If they are really nosy and ask where or for who, I turn it back on them, are you in need of something . Btw, be careful with scanning QR codes from people, you know they can get access to your phone and account information. It was on our local news. Glad this experience worked out for you.
If you have boots that you really love, you can take them to a shoe repair shop and they can make them fit your legs. I do t know what the procedure is called but I had a friend who was always extremely skinny and that’s what she did.
Awesome video! I truly love and admire your work, energy and enthusiasm for life. Can u PLEASE share the deets on those ankle black western style boots! I’d they are comfortable, then I REALLY NEED THEM!!
I don’t like answering about work because I feel that people ask it only because they feel I might not belong in that space during work hours… unless I’m on my way back to work. I also don’t like “answering” to people about my business.
hahaha!! I used to do marketing and I don't always want to talk about my current job either, like I don't need some random person knowing where I work and what I do, so I always fall back to saying I'm in marketing!!!
In my opinion, that’s a typical question, especially at a nail salon. However, if you're into being private and don’t want to flaunt like most people do, I’ll just say I’m a stay-at-home mom. It’s that simple for me... (And no, I’m not actually a stay-at-home mom.) Lol.
im with you on the work. thing I'm not offended by people asking, I just always wonder why it matters. (but its typically a go to question people ask to make small talk) I always make things lite and by responding "for fun or for money?" The person almost always laughs and we might move on to another topic lol...... And then sometimes I say "will what I do change the way you look at me?" Then if I do say it, I'll just say I work for a non profit.
I understand you Kim. I do think random folks be asking private questions waaaay too often. People are so use to being so open and loud but some of us like being private.
Ur son is so smart. My daughter, who's now an adult, taught herself Japanese and Korean as a child. She was so great at it that when she was in middle school, she was the translator for the Japanese students who came to her school each year. She was in a magnet school n it was a treat to see this black girl walk around with all of the Japanese student visitors, giving them a tour of the school and speaking their language. I'll ask her if ur sons writing is as good as i think it is bc she also learned to write the language as well.
Brilliant!
Gratitude journaling challenge for 30 days. Great idea.
I encourage everyone to try it! ❤️
I am gonna do this challenge. Maybe I'll stick to it. I do it so haphazardly now. 30 days, starting today.
I agree. Definitely something I am going to start.
Will do. Far as what you do for a living, you can say you work from home-self employed😊@thechicnatural
Yes it is, I'm going to start now
I can completely relate to loving houses-I’m a huge fan of HGTV, and House Hunters is my absolute favorite. A few years back, my husband encouraged me to go to real estate school to become an agent. I took an online course, passed the exam on my first try (I’ve heard so many stories of people needing multiple attempts!), and got my license.
I soon realized that selling homes wasn’t really my passion, so I transitioned into property management. It’s incredibly rewarding and can be quite lucrative!
And if you’re ever hesitant to share your job title, you can always say you’re an entrepreneur or business owner. Stay-at-home mom? You can proudly call yourself “domestic engineer”! 😂

Hey, I am new here...ya just popped up on my feed. Several years ago, I saw a post on FB about keeping a gratitude jar (every time something good happens throughout your day, you write it on a slip on paper and put it in the jar). They mentioned that you fill up the jar and read it at the end of the year. My husband and I read all of our entries on New Years Eve. It is something that we really look forward to! The more you look for things to be grateful for, the more they happen to you! Last thing, look for the simple things-good service at a restaurant, a sale, a beautiful sight in nature. Gratitude is the key to a happy life!❤🙏
I'm impressed with your young son and his ability where the foreign language is concerned including writing it. Great job!
Gratitude journal is definitely what I should look into doing. I love the quote by Mckeown ‘if you focus on what you have, you get what you lack. If you focus on what you lack, you lose what you have.’
By embracing my blessings, I believe my perspective on my life will improve. Love your vlog. Keep posting such positive content!
I live in my head, especially past grief a gratitude journal would probably do wonders for me! You always have the best ideas 💞
Smile and say, I'm my own boss!
😂 period
Congratulations on you being mentioned in the doctors memoir, what an honor. U don’t have to tell people what u do if u do t want to. I love the furniture outside, it looks great!😊
This is the second video that I have saw over the weekend about gratitude journaling, think I will go ahead and try that myself.
It's a sign!!
Be aware that the back of those sambas will eat your upper heal up… I saw a hack… use a hair dryer to soften that part and bend it back and forth! Also if you have an arch in your foot.., these are very flat! I bought them a week ago!
Girl you helped so many of us with our natural hair. I still rocked the bantu knot front and clip ins in the back.
Hi Kim!!! You're such an amazing person! Im 33, and I've watched you for years, mainly watching your makeup videos. I must say i love your videos it always gives peace. Blessings to you!!❤

Wonderful share, Sis! Congratulations, Doctor, on your book and for taking time out to give this beautiful sister her props in your book. ❤️
What an honor to have impacted someone so deeply

Gratitude really does increase your vibrant. I always start my day with gratitude. A lovely vlog. 🙂
Me too!
I say I work and depending on who it is I’ll say a broader area of my job
Tuned in, I 🙏🏽 all will be just fine.
Happy Holidays to you and your family and Everyone here❤

I use the Lancôme La Base primer and I think it’s very long lasting. I have combination skin.
*You are a Content Creator that helps to improve women lives💕
Congratulations on being featured in the memoir🎉
Too faced hangover primer is what I used.. I always got told it looked like I didn't even wear foundation bc it went on so smooth 😊
I do that all the time especially in my neighborhood with all the new builds. I like looking at other people’s colors and upgrades.
Congratulations on being mentioned in the memoir! 💗 I love your positive energy!

Love the one size oil sucker primer! Keeps your skin matte literally all day
This stuff is the truth!!! Especially as an oily girly it keeps me matte all day long
I love the Gratitude Journal idea! I think I’m going to do it myself with my daughters! Such an awesome exercise to do! 🤩🤩🤩
You should wait after the holidays and start the new year to enjoy your family and friends. You look amazing…..
Hi Kim! I've been lowkey checking for a video upload these last few weeks from you. You are definitely inspiring. Congratulations on the mention in the memoir. Now I have to buy it.

Some countries want to really know if you are doing well and how they can help to make your stay in their homeland pleasant. We as human beings have so much creativity in how we live our personal lives that no one is interested unless you are getting an income. We are more than our Labor, which simply helps Finance our real lives outside of work which unfortunately no one cares about. In addition, everyone does not live paycheck to paycheck and can afford to take breaks. This is my 3rd career break in life, 1st was when I was 26 years young. I prefer to travel and see the world before I leave it. My recommendation is to response with, "I prefer to be asked genuinely how I am doing today and if you wish to ask what my interests are in life then ask. I prefer not to discuss my Labor as I'm here to relax and get my nails done. Have a wonderful day and I hope you are doing well mentally and physically genuinely." 😇 Just my 2 cents
I love it! Multiple sitting areas is a vivid!
Your son is impressive with his Japanese writing at an young age. Well done to him
Happy Sunday ♥️
Happy Sunday Funday! Love the hair and nails.
Hi Kim I am loving the porch area I do love the black table set❤❤❤ happy holidays 🌲🦃 wow so happy for u for being a memoir u are really good at hair I have been watching u for years 😊
I agree about the work question. Especially from people who don’t know you or aren’t getting to know you. Feels like they’re being nosy or judgy. You can say you’re in marketing or freelancing or freelance marketing. Not untrue 🙃
I love this gratitude journal I'm going to do this I always journal but not every morn but yes I have so much to be grateful for
Gurl You Living Ya Best Life😂💖
Congratulations on the book acknowledgement!! 🎉
I understand. My husband has an issue with those types of questions. He tells them, I don’t discuss my personal life. A lot of people get offended but some really understand. Especially a random person, like it’s none of your business.People like to pry and be nosey , some use what you tell them against you.😮😊😂😂
Add may I add Congratulations on Everything God is blessing you with and more ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations on being in the memoir🎉 You have definitely been an inspiration! I have gone vegan for the month of November and you're on the list of what I eat in a day videos when I need some ideas.
Also, I did a version of Dr. Bobby Price's herbal detox at the beginning of the month while eating clean in conjunction with diastasis recti exercises. I've had a mommy bulge for 3yrs and I gotta testify that after 25 days on this journey the results are amazing!!!
Sending good energy to you and your upcoming fitness/wellness journey!
I never understand the secrecy behind revealing what you do for a living. The same with pay. People have ulterior motives, but others are genuinely interested in knowing the opportunities out there.
I can see where shes coming from. Why am I telling a total stranger my personal business just because they asked? Whole time I dont even know their name. Seems kinda entitled if someone takes offense to her wanting to maintain their privacy.
Kim just tell them you’re a Content Creator, SAHM, Brand Ambassador, Author and Jewelry Consultant……♥️♥️
I purchased a new build townhome and moved in while the rest of the subdivision was under construction. The builder installed “private residence” signs in the front yards because prospective buyers were wandering the neighborhood. Yes someone tried to enter my home
oh, I've heard of that happening! I definitely only go into homes that are clearly still under construction or have "for sale" signage
“If I wasn’t such a thug, I’ll probably cry” 😂😂😂😂😂 omg that was hilarious. Congrats!
Lol, I was raised in Bronx, NY, and we called them sneakers, never tennis shoes.
Midwest definitely says tennis shoes, but I say sneakers also
@@rondas7772 So true 😂!
This is so funny because I have the same issue when people ask me what I do. So my youngest stays home with me and I do the pick up for the other kids. However, I’m in school, I have my real estate license, and I have two small businesses that I’m trying to get rolling! Soooo…
I’ve just started saying a general title that encompasses more than one thing. If I asked I can respond and say “business” or “real estate”
lol I don’t know but I feel you!!😅
I was influenced and used your code to get the vacuum! I've been meaning to buy one for over a year, so today was a quick-long decision 😂
Can't wait to tune in ❤
Girl say it loud...You are and entrepreneur...a content creator. Oh, btw....it is sneakers. At least that's what us NYers call it. Lol.
Think of it like a Starbucks name. You have a set name to give them when you go to Starbucks so they don't know your real name. Consultant works well. If they ask a follow up question you can say marketing consultant etc and your still not really sharing anything. It works well.😊
Tell them you’re a consultant….which you are because you educate, instruct, market, and advise. That’s what I tell people. If they are really nosy and ask where or for who, I turn it back on them, are you in need of something .
Btw, be careful with scanning QR codes from people, you know they can get access to your phone and account information. It was on our local news. Glad this experience worked out for you.
If you have boots that you really love, you can take them to a shoe repair shop and they can make them fit your legs. I do t know what the procedure is called but I had a friend who was always extremely skinny and that’s what she did.
Awesome video! I truly love and admire your work, energy and enthusiasm for life.
Can u PLEASE share the deets on those ankle black western style boots! I’d they are comfortable, then I REALLY NEED THEM!!
hey hun! here is the link to the boots! : bit.ly/3Op04Is
I don’t like answering about work because I feel that people ask it only because they feel I might not belong in that space during work hours… unless I’m on my way back to work. I also don’t like “answering” to people about my business.
Happy Sunday Kim Enjoy your vlog video, so inspirational God bless you on your Journey ❤❤❤
hahaha!! I used to do marketing and I don't always want to talk about my current job either, like I don't need some random person knowing where I work and what I do, so I always fall back to saying I'm in marketing!!!
I love the new outdoor look
I love using the bobbi brown vitamin enriched face base which acts as a primer or sometimes i just use a tint.
Before you said Tommy I said it out loud😂😂😂 You ain't go no Job!😂😂😂They're asking you because you look like money boo..got your ish together.
In my opinion, that’s a typical question, especially at a nail salon. However, if you're into being private and don’t want to flaunt like most people do, I’ll just say I’m a stay-at-home mom. It’s that simple for me... (And no, I’m not actually a stay-at-home mom.) Lol.
Not sure if you oil cleanse, but that really helped reduced the oiliness for me.
It’s definitely a good thing when they learn a new language at a young age!!! They are sponges!!
im with you on the work. thing I'm not offended by people asking, I just always wonder why it matters. (but its typically a go to question people ask to make small talk) I always make things lite and by responding "for fun or for money?" The person almost always laughs and we might move on to another topic lol...... And then sometimes I say "will what I do change the way you look at me?" Then if I do say it, I'll just say I work for a non profit.
Cute Outfit! My sister likes the 9er’s! I started watching lots of football in 2006 when my New Orleans Saints team started doing better!!
“If I wasn’t such a thug I would cry right now” 😂 I adore you, just too funny!!
I don’t know how you feel about Marshall’s, but my Local one I found a nice brown pair of brown chocolate boots there. 😃
My mom has one of those robot vacuums … she loves it!
