Hot Weather/Hot Topic


This weekend was hot...I mean , the temperature outside was extremely unbearable. On Saturday, I got up early & did hair and just looking outside made me hot. I had a few things I needed to do but once I finished my last client, I took a drive to Whole Foods, picked up a few things to eat and came home to my cool house. Well all that came to a halt real fast. Main man & I were getting ready to order some movies on Pay-Per-View when out of nowhere, a strong wind came, then the rain, then the lightning and what do u know, the power goes out. Him & I just got quiet like, what now. Being that we have been going through some changes, I thought that watching some movies & chilling would take our mind off of discussing our relationship issues. Well...what do u know, once the power was out, all we had was each other and nothing to do but talk over candles. I was like, come on God, what are u trying to do. But it all worked out. We got a chance to talk(I was hoping the power would hurry & come back on), air out some matters that we keep sweeping under the rug; discussed some new matters that have surfaced and just trying to talk out some things to see where this relationship is going to end up. We needed that...somethings I can truly see clearer now. So, we ended up all night playing cards & playing Solitaire on my laptop until the wee hours of the morning.

Woke up the next morning to no power and a hot house. We end up going to breakfast and to Lowes so he could buy me a generator. I thought that was too much money to be spending but at least my food didn't go bad and we were able to get some cool air from the fan. The power end up coming back on around 6:30pm, just in time for dinner and the game. The house took forever to cool down but I was ever so grateful for power. Now I feel at ease if ever another storm comes through and I lose power. Now I know I got some back-up.

The weekend ended really cool, especially since I had Monday off. I was able to do a few things yesterday and come in the house and chill. The weather has been serious but I hear its suppose to cool down tonight(thank god). So, in spite of all the warm weather & loss of power, me & main man got a chance to talk(which is a breath of fresh air from all the fussing we've been doing lately); got a chance to have some fun like we use too; spend some quality time and just creating that bond that we always had from day one. Relationships are work...I swear...I want to give up sometimes...it can really wear u down but...that 4-letter word...will keep u pushing . So, I guess I gained something out of all this hot weather...a clear mind with a better understanding....

To be continued....
