Movie: Review Wednesday!

Hallo an alle . Heute ist Mittwoch und das bedeutet, es ist Tag schreiben . Jetzt bin ich in der Liebe mit Edgar Allan Poe. Er war ein großer Schriftsteller , die missverstanden wurde und sein Ruhm stieg nach seinem plötzlichen , frühen Tod im Jahre 1849 . Es ist ein Film aus dem Titel , The Raven , mit John Cusack in der Hauptrolle von Poe.

Dieser Film folgt Poe im letzten Jahr seines Lebens. Dabei gibt es ein Killer auf dem losen unter Poes Geschichten und macht sie zum Leben erweckt.

Nun, wenn Sie eine von Poes Werk gelesen haben, wissen wir alle, dass es dunkel , grauenhaft, blutig, und verdreht ist . Viele Papiere nicht die Gedichte und Geschichten zu veröffentlichen. Poe nie wirklich Geld entweder machte sich von ihnen. Er würde sein Geld für Alkohol und andere Dinge ausgeben .

Dieser Film hat zwar die Fakten von Poes tatsächlich Leben und die Geschichten zum Leben auf dem Bildschirm. Das Erzählen der Geschichten über die Verbrechen sind ganz in der Nähe der zu lesen.
Das einzige, was ich nicht wirklich glücklich war , war der Endung. Wenn Sie ein Poe -Fan sind , werden Sie wissen, was ich rede , wenn Sie diesen Film sehen!

Wenn Sie den Film nicht sehen , ist es völlig in Ordnung , und ich empfehle ich einige seiner berühmtesten Werke wie : The Raven, The Pit and the Pendulum , Annabelle Lee, The Cask of Amontillado , Der Untergang des Hauses Usher und The Tell- Tale Heart , um nur einige zu nennen! Ich habe eine Kopie von Poes Gesamtwerk .

Holen Sie sich die Bücher y'all und den Film , wenn Sie möchten .
hoffe, ihr wird die Zeit nehmen, um die Werke eines großen amerikanischen Schriftsteller, der unter aussah, war zu lesen; und ist endlich die Kredit er verdient.

schreiben Sie, was Sie über das funktioniert, oder dem Film denken!

Liebe euch alle und haben einen guten Tag oder Nacht, wo immer Sie sind!

my poor poor Earl

for all, today was my aunt's funeral and I thank everyone that came. My aunt fought a long fight and isn't suffering anymore. I know that she is in a better place and with my grandmother and her grandson, my little cousin, that I never met. It was interesting to experience a Muslim service. It was nice to see my southern family and family I don't see on a regular basis. Didn't want to under the circumstances we were dealt as a family.

On the way to the repass, we got into a car accident!!! My poor poor Earl. Earl is the name of my da's car that I just drive all the time to get to and from work. And run errands, and play taxi to my family. My friends named the Oldsmobile when they were really really tired and came up with an elder gentlemen's name.

We were driving, da was looking. The car in front of us was making a turn, stopped and bam!!!

Have to wait for the for the insurance company to come and look.. I have a feeling it is going to be totaled and I am out of a car. I really don't want a stationwagon for a car!I love my Olds and so do my friends!!! I will give an update to see how it goes.
 I don't to lose Earl.
here are some other photos of my baby

Walmart/ Bath & Body Works Haul!

so I have a sad addiction when it comes to Walmart. I go there for everything but make-up since I go to Harmon's. from clothes to supplies for my desk, I buy things there and plus it is close. I went to Walmart twice yesterday; once for me and once with my fun Aunt Wandalee.
the trip for me was things that I needed

Walmart!!! (first trip)

1. socks: all of my sock are ripped, have holes, and are dirty from the move. so I through out all of my socks. I like no show socks, dont ask me why but I do. I prefer Hanes. I have to look for the larger size since I have a big foot size. 
2. panties: I am a huge Faded Glory junkie. from my tank tops, jeans, dresses, you name it I love the brand. so I wear boyshort cut panties and always am looking for new colors and patterns.
3. Command hooks: I like the Command products. they leave no residue behind. they are easy to use. I bought the hooks so I can hang up my purse, jacket, hoodie(s). I also got the medium length mounting strips so I can hang up my whiteboards!!!!
4. ear buds: I always go through ear buds. now they have a mic built-in and I like it. my old ones we starting to fall apart and the cushion started to crack and split. 
5. hair ties: I always loose my hair ties and the cat loves to play with them. so I bought the 70 count box so I can have them.
6. deodorant: Dove go fresh: revive- pomegranate and lemon smelling and I love it. it goes well with the body spray I use. 

I go to Bath & Body Works to get my body spray.  I love the signature scent "Country Chic". I bought the fine fragrance mist (the bigger bottle, not the perfume). as always when I go into the store, the travel products are on say "Buy 3 for $10" and I grabbed three fragrance mist bottles (the smaller bottle). those are good to keep in your purse or in the car; an overnight bag. I like to use them when the bigger bottle runs out.  

this is what i bought and share what you love to get from bath & body works below and chat with y'all soon!

sad news...

This week has been a rough week...

everyone knows that we moved from a house to a small apartment for the next year or soo.... still unpacking :( I mean I like my room its is in the back so I don't have to hear my da wake up my brother in the morning.

my weekend started like shit from the move; then it went over the edge when I found you that my da's oldest sister, Ann Marie, aka Aunt Annie, was murdered by her SOB of a boyfriend. She was "brutally" murdered. The SOB slit her throat and stabbed my Aunt. She had Multiple Sclerosis which is an autoimmune disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. She was diagnoses when she was a child. He probably killed her either Sunday night or early Monday morning. Then he had the nerve to stay and wash his clothes on Wednesday. My aunt's body was discovered Thursday night and the family was all notified that night and on Friday morning. I have been reading the newspaper articles watching the updates to see what is happening. My aunt was a fun, free spirited woman who took her dx in stride and knew her family. When she started dating Tom (the SOB's name), she became distant from the family that is right in Florida like she was. I live in New Jersey, the last time I saw my aunt was the year her husband, my Uncle Danny, passed away in 2010; and she was walking then too... At the time of the murder, my aunt was either in a wheelchair or a walker from the MS and probably could not fight back. Tom made her have weekly yard sales every weekend for the past four months to make money. She made her get ride of my aunt's dogs. Now,  I am an animal lover, but my aunt LOVED her dogs. She volunteered every week at a local shelter in Daytona. HE stole my grandmother's crystal and my aunt's money. Now to the fun part of this story. He fled on Friday and his sister was the one that told the police where to find him. He would either run to the Keys or to the Everglades. {side note: if you ever go to Florida, go to these places. I have been to the Glades and I love it!!! and I have heard soo much about to the Keys- I would love to go!} He too stole my aunt's car, which also tipped off his sister.  Now mind you, this all happened on Friday.

Now, Saturday morning started off like every other one. I wake up and relax to get ready to go to work. Then, I hear my mum crying. I thought that she was still crying about my Aunt Annie. Then my da comes into my room and tell me that my Aunt Gail had passed away around 7am that morning. Now, both of my parents have lost an older sister in a matter of a few days. My Aunt Gail was fighting against cancer and lost. She was a fighter. I remember the last time I saw her, she always says "toodles" when we say goodbye. I will miss that. My aunt was in and out of hospitals over the past year fighting. I haven't seen her in the hospital. I can't visit anyone unless they are in labor because I know that they are going to live. Every time I go to see someone, they come out in a body bag. My Aunt loved to chat, I call it the Bason Curse; among other thing that could qualify in that category. Aunt Gail moved back up here from Florida when my grandmother was sick and dying in 2007. My grandmother passed away in December 2008 and she stayed up here. Her husband, Raymond lived up here too. So I would see them every month when I went to Morristown. about 5 months ago, I would see them then that all stopped. My aunt was getting worse was transferred between hospitals here in Northern New Jersey. We all knew that she wasn't going to make it the rest of the year. My Aunt Cindi is a nurse and I would ask how Aunt Gail was going and her outlook was grim. I

Today is Sunday and I am remembering my aunts as the smart, funny, strong, witty women they were. Our families are making plans for services soon and my da is going to go be with his family in Florida and I would like to go with him and Sean can stay here with mum. Then today around 14:15( 2:15pm) my dear cousin Patrick sent me a text telling me that the SOB that killed our Aunt Annie was found DEAD in the Keys. My da told me a few minuted earlier but having that confirmation that Tom was dead made me happy. But as a family, we will never have the answers we want: why? how? motive? Now, we don't have to go through that pain of a trial and to him sit there with a smirk on his face and to actually hear why and the motive. Now the police can look for more evidence as to why he would hurt such a kind woman.

No matter watch service I attend, there are two women that are kind and special too me and I will see them one day again in Heaven. They are seeing old relatives that left this Earth that meant something to them. They are with there parent(s) again, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandchild (Aunt Gail). I know that they are not suffering anymore and I'd rather them be in no pain then living in pain on Earth.

Aunt Annie was violently taken from us and Aunt Gail's fought until her last breath. I love and will miss my aunts everyday until I see them again. I won't be joining them for a long long time; but I will be looking for signs to let me know that they are looking out for me like my grandparents up above. My family has endured more pain and I just added two more people to the long list of relatives that I have lost during my twenty years of living.

I just would like to thank all of my friends for their condolences, love, and prayers going to my family. Both sides of my family have lost someone but they all knew each other growing up in the same town as kids.
RIP Aunt Annie and Aunt Gail.

moving day 4

so today is Tuesday and it has been four days since I have moved into my new place with the family. it is really small and I will try to post everyday or so with how the move is and my unpacking.

I am sooo stressed that I breaking out and that I haven't straightened my hair in days. I have to drive to work now and that is no fun... I can not take this stress and having to clean two houses and still move things into storage...

my only saving grace is that I now have a tv in my room so I can watch some tube!

I will be putting more posted up soon with moving updates, hair, makeup, and I night start doing #OOTD; on may never know....


 hope y'all have a great day or night and talk to you soon. please comment below on what you'd like me to write about or a look that I could try to recreate.
