THE CRAZY CAT LADY  FROM THE BLACK LAGOON

 Once Upon A Time there was a beautiful, smart, intelligent, sexy...hmmm WELL ME, princesss yeah! Well, okay that is not me below...but that is how I see myself..yeah that's right...this is my writing..my fantasy...and my story...so....there..suck it up buttercup....okay where I was going with this story oh...oh yeah...So Once Upon A time there was a beautiful princess that lived in a 1500 square feet flat in Temple Terrace she enjoyed the beautiful songs of the cardinals; the flapping wings of royal butterflies; and the attention of multiple suitors (it is still my fantasy...deal with it!)  in her beautiful yet enormous garden she will stroll everyday comtemplating the peasants from her tower..."Poor little bastards...oh...how do they work...I wish I could help somehow"

She was so happy surrounded by beauty and a golf course...rich men enjoying their retirement funds and geriatric retirees walking like zombies through her property..However, behind her beautiful flat...hmmm...i meant to say castle....there was "The Dark Garden and further down the back there was the Dark Lagoon," where the Crazy Cat Lady Had Been Seen Strolling Around!

:::::SINISTER MUSIC PLAYING HERE......"The Crazy Lady From The Black Lagoon"....sinister laughter....hahahahhahahhammm.

 One day the princess had to go to her sorority club to help students succeed and change lives, so she climbed into her Black Porsche and got ready for a new day. This was not a job to her since she was driving a porsche everyday to work and eating canapes and champagne...laughing with her sisters all day long about the peasants that did had to go to work, but unbeknownst to the princess the evil..crazy lady had moved next door...At first, everything started innocently, the Crazy Cat Lady will bring vegetables from the Black Lagoon and give them to the princess..oh how nice! The princess thought, but soon the princess started to note different weird occurrences happening in her garden.First her shelves dissapeared and her favorite table, then all the beautiful yellow and white dahlias and tulips were chopped leaving a deserted garden. Why and who the princess thought, who would do such a thing?

The princess tried to jump over the fence but instead of her beautiful flowers there was a cat fence full of bullet holes...This was never here before..the princess was really confused and scared..someone had decided to divide her garden in half...the butterflies and the cardinals will never come again...ohhhhh no....okay you can sob now reader...really...argggg. Then It Happened! There she was staring at the princess with her eyes wide open and petting her kitty cat Fruitloofff. "Come Here, Deary look what I did for You"-the crazy lady said and then there it was....ahhhhhhhhhhh-the princess screamed the most erie sound..nooooooohhhhhh-now the princess was histerical...what....what....my undiwears.....you....touchhhhhh them...ahhhhhh...Nooo touchiiiiiiiii

 Yes-the crazy lady said..I went into your house through a secret door and after looking at your computer..personal papers...changing the temperature to 75 degrees...I mean deerie really....you dont need to be at 77....after all you are going to be paying for the bill from TECO anyways...and ohh...drinking some of your wine...I hope you dont mind....I also clogged your toilets and showers.....so i could blame you later...wellll dearie....watch out with your personal files...and..pof...really you are not geetting any younger.Okay dearie...remember how I told you last week that you needed a hobby forget it....you really need a new boyfriend....But you cannot do that...said the princess. Remember dearrieeee-"The voices...are telling me to kill you!" If you and your son leave the property you will never return alive...alhahahahah.

The princess was scared and confused but thank god that she did meditation and yoga...daily...but she was scared the Crazy Cat Lady will come into the House. Why...she wondered...why the Crazy Lady will go through all this trouble to kick her out, after all i am paying her bills? Then one day, when the crazy lady got out the house the princess jumped the cat fence...went through the black garden..into the black lagoon...and then to her surprise...she saw ...THE HORROR.....There was a garden of crazy cat ladies some of them smoking weed..others trying out crazy scottish outfits...but the worse one was telling her to go to hell in the craziest language she had ever seen....

She used her middle finger...ha...said the princess I am not really sure what that means....but I better leave...she does have an ax. To her surprise the black lagoon was not black at all but full of TADDDDAMMMM UNDIES...omg she collects them...2000 bras and panties laid down on top  of the grass. That is why she cuts the flowers...finally some answers!!!! The princess is still living next to the crazy lady but now she has gotten smart not only she has a fence but also she has reinforcements. Show me that finger again, Crazy Cat Lady!!! Now I am ready!!!

Do you like when mommy buys you trucks and cars to play with? Yes...mommy..okay buddy you and I are a team ...you go to school and I go to work...Well, mom I want to go to your work...wow..I thought I wish you could!

Let's say that we all go through mornings like this especially when you are a single parent..you are an advisor, a lecturer, the budget maker,...the home maker...the money maker...the priest...the psychologist, and the mechanic all in a bundle; that is the life of a single mom or dad, especially more challenging when either you have a toddler or a teenager...I am blessed to have both! Erik is holding to the chair..to my inner thigh...with the grasp of death..dont want to let go today...the teacher looks at me kindly: he is fine in the classroom...he will be okay...well it is 7:15 am...and i wish i could have a beer right now.

Dont worry, he says is on the house...really? Well..Thanks...Never Asked his name. The kid just trying to be nice.

Going around..omg they gave me a croissant instead of a donut. Stop..park the car...breaks are faltering..great! Then a young black man resembling Asher comes out of a BMW..hi is your name Susie? Yes..how does this guy know? Well..I kind of follow you? Whaaaat...creepo!!! This must be yours...he hands me my daughters iphone5..yes..i guess you put gps on your daughters phone and it was connected to yours...oh thanks...well...thanks very much...wow...they still nice people in this world. I asked him his name: Mathias..he smiles. Do you want a reward?..he starts laughing..No thanks.. and got into his beautifull....yes I want that car BMW. I guess not a creep just a nice guy.

That got me thinking..yes I do that from time to time..how we always focus on the negatives..how easy it is...to go to the negatives...so today...be prepared this is a long post..i will give you some of the positives that I have experienced in my life...some of my best...and I was thinking that in my life...i actually have more positives than negatives when I started to think about it...

Year 1-remember the bedspread of my parents bed..warm and comforting presence of my mother..feeling protected.

Year 5-My mother taught me how to draw...she draws a family of mice...dad mice had a top hat...mom mouse had a bow on her head...baby mouse...

Year 6-Kids in school make fun of me when I win a painting contest..because i painted elephants with long legs suspended in the air...i was crying..dad came up to me and said...see..this is a painting of a very famous painter...he also painted elephants with long legs and clocks melting...I see them in my dreams..dad..

Year 8-My two uncles Jesus and Gregorio teach me how to ride my yellow mountain bike on my grandmothers' house they spent the whole day teaching me and then we sit to eat sandwiches and water the flowers in my grandmother's garden.

Year 12-My first kiss..this blonde kid with freckles and blue eyes..Sergio...gives me a sunflower and tells me I love you...lol..gives me a first kiss.

Year 14-My best friend and I we met in kindergarten (Marta)...we make a path to be friends forever...we still talk...we still best friends...they say that if you have a friendship with a person for 7 years it will last a lifetime.

Year 15-I travel all over Europe..love Amsterdam...hate Paris...Love dancing...Love the Mona Lisa...Love Belgium Chocolate and Beer....9 days with no parents...yeahhah!

Year 19-I meet my soulmate...sometimes soulmates don't end up together. More of that to come I guess.

Year 20-Sing professionally at a Piano Bar...go on tour all over Spain and Europe...love to sing..love the crowds.

Year 23-Move to Germany...have my first born...saw his soul entering my body and 5 minutes later...K was born..

Tell me about your positives...Think about it..every day you got more positive things that happen in your life than negatives...so tell me are you focusing on the negatives or the positives in your life?
