Before and After remixed

As most people who know me clearly accept that I do not celebrate worldly holidays and some even agree with my stance. Nevertheless, my peoplez are always in town and we get together after all the festivities have ceased and then my cousins and myself can get down on the real talk. Well I being a male and thinking about a previous blog- I asked several of the men what they thought about down time on the beauty of a woman (I will explain in a minute) or noticing any changes she makes.

It is important to keep in mind that men tend to be visual creatures and we are attracted to what we see rather than what we hear you tell us. With that being said, its no wonder that when we men see beautiful women, we think we want a lady like that!! However when it comes to our own woman, we want her to look good for us too. The issues at times has women feeling like they need to just chill when at home. They don't need 2 fix the hair, wear the make up or lipstick like they do when preparing for work. Its chill time right? @:*$#%$ to the KNOLL. How would you feel if a man decided he didn't want to kill that mouse that got you all up on the toilet seat screaming!!! Ladies, I understand you get tired, but have you ever considered trying to out love your mate? Just do the following , comb your hair back into a pony tale if long enough, put on some chap stick (I prefer MAC)a nice wife beater and some booty shorts and tell that sucka how much you love him. Trust me, he will be happy. All I am saying is that men are simple, just make us feel that we are the most important person in the world to you and we will do the same for you because we don't want to loose your respect. (((Trust me on this))).
Please keep in mind** an occasional home cooked meal and a clean house won't hurt the situation either-lol. You can take what you want from this blog, but keep in mind that wardy says Men are visual.....
I see you Ward...

Wii would like to play

Got a few weeks of work so you know me and my girls are gonna kicky it Wardy style. I dusted off the wii game and we played all night. My oldest daughter (8.5) actually beat me in bowling----that is the first game. I brought the business the next 12 games. Then when it comes to tennis, I am unstoppable and unbeatable. Truth be told, I think I need to start a league for Wii and make me some real money-lol.
Also while I am off we are gonna do our YMCA thang (I really need a massage), house cleaning and hopefully moving into our new home during this time.

Oh by the way, last night was crazy icy outside. I actually saw sheets of ice everywhere. I literally slid everywhere I went. I had to park my ride and chill with company I invited over, but it was cool, because today wasn't as cold and no more ice, just rain.

I am the Wii playing Ward...

Beeee 4 N after

I was sitting in my room and thought about something I heard a few days ago by a female co-worker (yeah I have a real job). I noticed that my co-worker had a new hair cut and dye job. I was not going to acknowledge that I was aware of something different, but going against my better judgement, I said......"ahh a new look huh?" She went on to say that her husband did not say anything about it and she was ticked off by that fact. I asked if she told him that she was getting a new look and she said she did not have to because he walks through a crowded room and can tell her what everybody in the room was wearing and talking about, but he doesn't even notice his own wife!!!!
I thought to myself, why did you get your hair done in the first place. I would assume the answer was because you wanted a change and after giving it thought, you placed a call to the beautician, then drove to the appointment, waited for ever long it took, then looked at your reflection in the mirror and then came home for the set up move on your innocent unsuspecting man. When you didn't get the reaction you expected, he is not the blame for yet another problem that he did not see coming. Humm and women wonder why men clam up. Would it have been so hard to tell the dude up front that you was thinking about a new dooo and wanted to know his thoughts. Then we she returned she may have gotten that "wow you look great lie that we all must tell"--lol!
I know women think men should only think about you all day, but have you ever realized (not wondered) that we men folk see beautiful women all day from t.v. and the work place on the daily? If you want to impress us, try asking us what we like and her comes the tricky thang..........do what we ask......OMG it just might actually work. Don't get it twisted we can do the same thing for you too, but the key is knowing what you want suckers.......

I am the same hair styling Ward...

Here is a picture of my 2 of my nephews and my kids. We hooked up one Sunday afternoon and went to Country Kitchen and got some soul food. I had the usual fried pork chops, yams, mac and cheese, dressing and greens and washed it down with iced tea. (Burp-Excuse me) I was thinking isn't it funny how much family starts to look alike the older people get? In harmony with that, I saw a man who looks just like his dog? Don't act like I am the only one who has ever noticed that before!!

By the way, I have been on a quest to find a good restaurant with good customer service and even better food. I am sure I won't find anything soon, but I am on the look out........

Why Christmas ain't for me and mine

Today I was approached by someone to sign a Christmas card. I politely declined the offer, but was immediately asked why don't I celebrate Jesus? I must admit that I thought the person knew my views on such occasions, but I obviously was erred in my thinking! The person asked do I have children and how do they feel about not getting all the gifts and enjoying this wonderful occasion?
Sigh** there are so many ways I can begin on this, but I promise I will keep it light this time. I simply told this young lady that I am a regular reader of the Bible and yet to come across any insight in the word that even remotely indicates that I should place a decorated tree in my home and then place gifts under it for some one's birthday who is not even invited because it is for other people to receive?? Some how if you get past this tradition with false reasoning ability, you then factor in that a man named Santa (satan) who supposedly supplies gifts during this time of a depression and shoots down your chimney. Last time I checked, the Bible said we must worship our God with truth and spirit. Can someone explain the truth in any of this nonsense?
I very much enjoy gift giving and family gatherings, but my family and I choose to to this at other times during the year. I like to see the expression when I give gift for no other reason than I simply love the receiver of the gift. I guess that is how Jesus would do it, hummm. Speaking of Jesus, why does the nativity scenes never die out. Does Jesus want to be known for being born in a manger or does he want to be known for coming to Earth to die for our sins? I guess most people like to think of him as a baby rather than an active King in Heaven right NOW!!!
I am sorry, I had to go there. My point again is that, I don't mind the young lady asking me join her in this lie, but my no is solid....NO THANKS. I hope she doesn't ask me to smoke a cigarette cause I am firm on that too-lol! Christmas ain't for me and mine but I respect you and hope you can reciprocate that love.
I am not celebrating the lie.....Ward.....

Ya gotta love kids and life

Herb you are going to appreciate this one pimpin. I took my girls to the gym with me tonight to watch the game and not play this time. Of course they played and did everything but watch the game which was cool with me. After all, my dude and his woman came and we joaned on all the crappy players. I actually think we can put that show on the road-lol!
Anyway, I was thinking about being mad at loved ones and how we hold grudges for days on end. Shoot sometimes we even forget why we were mad. Its funny when you really think about it cause its worse than kids. Point: Our kids do the darn est things and we still forgive them and move on with out throwing it up in they face with each new mishap. We love them and accept them for who ever they turn out to be. Funny thing happens when it somebody we view as an equal or close to us. We are not as forgiving.
I know I am guilty of it too. But when I saw my girls get into an argument with each other and then laugh and playing in about 2.5 minutes later. I had to laugh to my self because kids are simple in nature. I learn so much from my interactions with them. Example, they don't care if I don't smile every time they see me, they still hug me, they don't care where we eat as long as we eat together, they don't mind riding in a hoop tee as long as we roll as a family. They actually say that they love me and I am the best Dad in the world. I laugh again, because they don't know other Dad's and more importantly I do plenty wrong, just ask my family-lol!
I feel good about today, mainly because I know that as long as I am alive, I have a chance to get right today what I failed on yesterday. I know that love is free and I had to opportunity to do my best with each new day. Ya gotta love kids and life... At least I do....
I am Ward that dude....
