Friday
Hey, y'all!!! Hope all is well, and I hope that the weather wherever you live is better than what has been going on all up and down the east coast!!! Thanks to Hurricane Arthur, its been raining since Wednesday; and making this holiday weekend start!
So today all I have done is cleaned my makeup brushes and watched movies all day.
The weather has cleared up and it is a nice sunny windy evening!!! YAY!!!
Happy 4th of July to everyone that celebrates!!! I might post a blog on a look that I created for the USAvsBEL game of FIFA World Cup. USA lost but we made it to the Round of 16 and I couldn't be any prouder of the team! And Tim Howard set the record for most saves in a game!! 16 SAVES!!! But I still have Germany and the Netherlands still in it to win it! I am part German and proud of it and the Dutch were robbed in 2010 and I would like to see them take it all the way!!!

Saturday
My Saturday started off as every other weekend that I have to work. I wake up and drive to work. Work went SLOW!!! I was busy working but damn it went so slow that I wanted to go back to bed!! Once one pm rolls around, I am out of the office and go back home. I parked in the driveway and saw my parents outside all sad looking; just like the time when we found out my daddy's sister was murdered. I thought something happened to my grandfather, which is logical pick since my grandfather is 88 years old. But, I was wrong; it was my beautiful cousin Evelyn, aka Shavone. She slipped in the shower and her airway was blocked; died instantly pretty much. She leaves behind my beautiful little cousin age 7. Because she is little I am not going to provide the name. This is the third death of my family in three months. I love black but I not liking that I am going to my second funeral.
Once the shock of the death subsided for a little, the family came over for a BBQ for the 4th and my Uncle Bernard's birthday ( he was born the 4th of July.) The BBQ was a fun afternoon of laughs and picking on each other; and it was nice to keep our minds off of what had happened that morning.
After the Bason clan left, we cleaned up and relaxed; then a text message from my aunt gets me out of the house all NIGHT!!!
I go to my aunt's when ever she needs me to feed the cat and that usually means I spend the night!!! Not even two minutes in the driveway and the kids are asking me questions and attacking me with water noodles and shooters!! I get inside and feed the cat and I go next door and hang out with the neighbors and the kids. It was nice to just relax and not be home. My aunt FINALLY came home and hung out next door too. We didn't leave until midnight. I was soo damn tired that I crashed in the guest room .

Sunday
We woke up and had our cups of coffee for her and tea for me. Then we went to go get an umbrella for the back deck. After we pick up we need, off to a late breakfast and it was fabulous! Went to a local place that I, wait, that we haven't been to in a long long time and it was worth it. Once we got back to my aunt's house, she kicked me out and I came home. Did a few errands like getting my eyebrows wax and buying things for my daddy.
Once I came home, that was it!!! I painted my nails for the next Germany game! Stay tuned for posts related to the FIFA World Cup!!!
Now it is getting late and time to relax and wide down for the night!!!
Hope y'all enjoyed the beautiful holiday weekend and had a better one than I did! Like this post and leave comments below. Talk to everyone 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.
