When Was The Last Time Someone Asked “Are you ok?”

October 21, 2019 by Alisha 1 Comment

One of my friends shared this interview on her instagram account and it truly struck a nerve.  Here’s a woman, a Duchess, that from the outside you would think that life has got to be pretty good for her.  I mean she’s the Duchess of Sussex!  But then I realize that she’s still a woman and new mother.  So many of us have been right where she is but luckily for us we weren’t under the scrutiny of media and an entire country watching our every move.

Last week, ITV news released a clip of an upcoming documentary Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and after such a simple question of “are you doing ok” you could see in her eyes that she was not.  She even answered the interviewer by saying “not many people have asked if I’m ok”.  Wow! 

Our society always put so much emphasis on woman looking and acting a certain way even during pregnancy.  People go out of there way to point out when celebrities aren’t looking their best, have put on too much weight or have expressed how being pregnant was one of the most stressful experiences.  And then once you’ve become a new mom everything is so focused on the snapback and how quickly you lost the baby weight.

Welcome to Wine’ing Momma!!!

March 2, 2016 by Alisha 14 Comments

First off…welcome!!!  Thank you all so much for joining me today as Wine’ing Momma makes her debut!  This has been a long time coming and I’m so happy that my new look and name have finally happened!  Now it wasn’t easy and there were many days along the way that I was looking like the image below!  But I survived!!!  Thank gawd for wine!  LOL

I kept thinking about how I wanted it to look and what type of vibe I wanted to give to all my fun readers. There are so many “experts” out there in social media and after a while I swear they all started to sound like the adults on Charlie Brown.  Do this…don’t do that… -_- [Read more…]

If I Had a Personal Assistant #NaBloPoMo

November 12, 2015 by Alisha 11 Comments

As a mom, heck as a grown up period, there are like a million trillion things that I dread I have to do each day.  If I had a personal assistant, here’s a list of all that crap that I’d have them do:

  1. My youngest daughter’s hair!!!  *no explanation needed*  LOLBig Hair Don't Care Coilylocks
  2. Someone to do laundry.  It’s not so much that I don’t like washing clothes, it’s the folding, putting up…blah blah blah.  Yea I won’t even mention how I still have two loads of clothes sitting in my basket that have yet to be put up -_-
  3. Going to the grocery store.  Ok so for this one I’m thankful that my husband (for some odd reason) likes grocery shopping.  I despise everything about it and would rather run a marathon than go buy groceries.
  4. Cook.  If it wasn’t for my kids I would probably have a house full of box mac-n-cheese, cereal and stuff to make sandwiches.
  5. Helping with homework.  There’s a reason I switched my major from Elementary Education.
  6. Clean the house.  This is right up there with grocery shopping.  I feel like my house is being taken over by Barbies and art supplies.
  7. Make my wine runs for me.  I swear I always seem to run out when Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder are coming on.  I NEED some wine to get through those 2 shows…LOL!
  8. Keeping me organized.  I write stuff down in my planner…yea that’s it.  I write it down then forget to actually go back to see what needs to be done.  SMH

What would your list look like if you had some to handle all that ish that you don’t have time for or just don’t want to do?
