Thoughts of a Diva

     Recently my Facebook has been alive and thriving with debates about how child support paid by a noncustodial parent to a custodial should be allocated. The reason why this topic interests me is because 1. I have custody of my children and received child support from their father; 2. This debate is sparked by somebody on FB at least twice a year and in my opinion the statements are ridiculous and 3. It is very interesting to hear from the male/non-custodial parent viewpoint. The overall consensus seems to be that child support is child support not mama support . This pains me.       Legally, Child support is issued under the idea that both parents are obligated to financially support their children regardless of the relationship status of the parents. Child support is financial support of children and does not include emotional support, intellectual support, physical care, or spiritual support which are often t...

  Ms. Iggy Azalea is the shiiiiiiiit! I love her. First off I ride for all things #HustleGang plus she has a really nice flow. People are saying she stole Charlie Baltimore's style but I say Charlie Who? Don't get me wrong I LOVE C.Baltimore ...or should I say loved her....you know when she was hot?  I can hear a similarity but I don't think she robbed her. The video is cute with it's ode to the 90's classic Clueless starring Alicia Silverstone. Any way this is my jam! Also, shout out to Charli XCX because the chorus is bananas. First things first, I'm the realest Drop this and let the whole world feel it And I'm still in the Murda Bizness I can hold you down, like I'm givin' lessons in physics You should want a bad bitch like this Drop it low and pick it up just like this

You can count on a T.I. post here at Thoughts of a Diva EVERY Tuesday ( that I remember ).     To get us started, here's 24's the first single that some of y'all may remember (I've been down since the first album I'm Serious.   When TIP hit the big time/mainstream he was featured in the long since forgotten Bone Crusher's Never Scared.

  So when you think of the term 'friends with benefits' you usually think of someone claiming to just be friends but actually getting the benefits of a relationship. These benefits are usually related to sexual acts. My situation is a little different. See I have a situation with a guy that I've known for years that I label as friends with benefits. However, his benefits package has not included physical contact. See the benefits that he seeks are my undivided attention. He wants my opinion on everything, he expects me to answer when he calls and when I don't it seems that he feels entitled to an explanation.  What's up with that? Maybe I'm just reading it wrong. Maybe this is what friendship between a girl and guy is like. I'm a firm believer that it's highly unlikely for a man and woman to be friends just friends from beginning to end without one of them at least thinking about making a move on the other. And I think that in this kind ...

Hello boys and girls! I am just checking in with a weight loss update. I'm back on Weight Watchers. I've been doing it for 3 weeks so far and I've loss 6 lbs. I've actually loss 8 but I gained 2 back :(  Anyway, this method seems to work for me. Better than MFP even though Weight Watchers is a paid program and MFP is free. I really wanted MFP to work but it just didn't. I'm a snacker and a sweet lover so I need to get over those...then I'm sure I'll see the number on the scale go down. I'm starting the 30 Day Shred this week....Whenever I get my mind right...Maybe tonight. I'll be posting pics the entire way so I can have a record of my progress.
