Queenies Mood:
Giddy
Hi Blog World,
My name is Queenie. That really isn’t my name ya know. That is just what everyone calls me. I got the name from my hub really. He treats me like a Queen and tells me that I am his Queen 24/7 so naturally, when I started blogging 5 + years ago…it just sorta stuck with me. Now, it’s plastered on my birthday cakes, used as screen names, emails ect.
I am sometimes thought of as an opinionated bitch. It’s a compliment to me most of the time. You see, it wasn’t long ago that I believed that I wasn’t entitled to have an opinion. I wasn’t smart enough to voice my thoughts and I certainly didn’t deserve to be listened to. Yep. Hard to believe, but that was me. Now, not so much. Now, my hub has worked his ass off to make sure that I know I can be heard. That I am the smartest lady alive and that my thoughts are something worth spewing. That is one of the main reasons that I love to blog. It gives me a place to toss it all out there. Without all the BS that goes along with telling people how you think and feel.
Despite having that label up there, I am genuinely a nice person. I love to help people. Even more, I love to take care of everything and everyone on the planet. It it something that was bred into me. I am a good ole midwestern woman who just happens to live in Miami. That means, that I am one fucked up cookie. I say ya’ll, oye, soda and drink sweet tea like a fiend yet I still cook from my crock pot and push a shopping cart when I hit the grocery store. I also have family values and I cherish my marriage. Something hard to find in most people now a days. I don’t care where you live.
I have 3 kids. Kids that quite honestly are the best kids on the planet. They are brilliant and they are funny. I am also a home school mom. It is a choice that was made by all 5 of the members of my family. I didn’t force them into it. It was mutual. We make family decisions around my castle. Not because I am a whimpy parent, but because I am teaching my kids to be independent and also that their thoughts and beliefs mater. That is just how we roll.
I will occasionally post things in my blog that make people upset. I believe that it is easier to read things and then deal with them on your own rather than to have to act like a human being and deal with face to face confrontations - at least for most people anyway. Sometimes, I just need to spew the things that are in my head. I don’t mention names when I spew. But I also don’t pull any punches. If I have thoughts, they need to get out. My head is a scary place sometimes. So, if you are in my life in any way, please know, that you may at some point, be blogged about. Get over it.
I have an uncanny ability to read people. Read. Sounds strange doesn’t it? I get feelings from the people that I am around. Most of the time, in my experience, those feelings are right on. Let’s add in to this, the fact that I am not afraid to tell it like it is and …well you can now better understand why I get that whole opinionated bitch thing.
I believe in karma, fate and magic. This is one of the reasons that I choose to be happy and nice. What goes around, does indeed come around. And if karma works a bit slower than I’d like, I don’t hesitate to put your name in my freezer. This is probably the only part of my life that I do keep private. Simply for the fact that I don’t want to be burned on a stake in the center of town.
I do all things passionately. Everything. I always feel that if you aren’t going to put your whole being into every breath that you are taking, it’s not worth breathing. I love, live and laugh under that decree. This blog will reflect that. If I am angry, the whole world will know it. If I am happy, the sun will shine and the birds will chirp all the way to China. This makes me a nonstop ball of energy most of the time. People often think that I am stressed out because my plate is always overflowing. That plate doesn’t stress me out on most days, it gives me purpose.
One of my biggest peeves, is encountering people who are afraid to be who they really are or say what they are thinking. I am not a complicated person. I appreciate people who are not afraid of their thoughts or ideals. I accept the fact that this world is full of people with brains. Each person is certainly entitled to their own set of beliefs. I embrace that. I enjoy filling my life with people who are different than I am. It makes things diverse and fun. I do not speak in code and on most days, I don’t read minds. If you have something to say to me, say it. Don’t be a pussy.
I blog for my own well being. As I mentioned before, my head is sometimes a scary place. Don’t come here and tell me how I should think or what I should write. That isn’t acceptable here at my place. As much as I love my readers and I love it when people comment, please know, If you don’t like what I have to say, there is a nice “x” up in the right hand corner. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. This is the one place on the planet that I don’t have to share with kids, husbands, friends, dogs, cats or fish. It’s all mine. My thoughts. My feelings. If you aren’t man enough to deal with that. Don’t come here.
With all of that said, welcome to Queenie’s Place. I am your host. For your own safety, please refrain from feeding the wildlife and keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times. Thank you.
