I have very little patience when I read something like this. A whole article with tons of pictures of people swilling in mud....and even after scrolling through all of that, I STILL I DON'T KNOW WTF Burning Man is, who sponsored it, what kind of people went there, or for what reason. Annoying!

She isn't the typical plus model though! Now, I think Lizzo is sloppy fat and deserves our curled lip.

Ashley is a big girl because she's more heavier- boned. She is shaped well, so she's not giving out the shamu vibe, like ol Lizzo. I kind of think Ashley 's unusual looks are because her weight isn't distributed in the typical overweight way. So, she's an anomaly. And, that's why she's famous!

Lizzo DOES NOT make clothes look good, custom fitted though they may be!

As I'm posting these shoes, I'm feeling old and I'm feeling.....frumpy! One of the reasons I love Melania Trump is because she wears her clothes and heels with such style and grace. There's not a single outfit she's rocked that I wouldn't rock myself.

I have a lot of Melania-style heels, many unworn, and I just don't want to give them up. I've stubbornly held on to them, because in a way they are my elixir of youth. It's only been the last five years that my knee has betrayed me.

I'm having a very difficult morning for what seems to be such a frivolous reason.

I am in the midst of posting all my high heels on ebay for a number of reasons. Primarily it's because I must pay my representative $1K to write an appeal to the dismissal of my EEO case.

Secondarily it's because I refuse to hoard things. I have an abundance of beautiful high heels that I no longer can wear, due to my catastrophic knee injury in 2001. My knee is okay if I don't wear heels, but it always hurts.

I have hit the wall of reality, though.
I tried each pair on and walked down my tiled hallway. OUCH! Talk about a miserable FAIL! I could not stride confidently in ANY of them, the way that I used to. It is done; this chapter in my life is over.

Now as I post these shoes, I'm trying to see what lessons the Lord has for me in this.

So far, I see that He is ridding me of encumbrances. I didn't realize I had so many unwearable shoes, until I started unpacking my boxes. Five HUGE ones!

I am also having to come to peace that my destiny is to not be a Melania Trump, but a mom who cleans her own house, cooks her own food, fixes her own things, and carries her own burdens. Melania Trump has many handmaids to assist her with her life, and she doesn't work the way that I do. She has burdens that I will never have in my anonymous life, so I don't envy her.

She wears the uniform that's suitable for the job she has. And, I need to wear the uniform that is best for MY destiny.

So, I comfort myself with these revelations and in that I don't have more debilitating injuries that would put me on crutches or in a wheelchair. I can still wear kitten heels, and I'm able to fix most of the things that I need to, just like I always have.

And, this is a great chance to get more room for other things, pare down my "stuff", and hopefully earn enough to fund this last push for my EEO case.

The Lord works all things for good, for those who are called according to His Purpose.

When I'm done with this, I'm going to have a good cry. And then I'm going to take myself out for a white chocolate martini.

I'm praying that I'll have a great success selling all of this so I'll have extra funds that will cover the cost of replacing the glass shelves in the china cabinet. I would really like to put all my dishes away, and rid myself of the boxes that are cluttering the dining room.

Keeping my mind firmly on the future, so as to not wallow in the past.

White Chocolate Martini Recipe

What is a White Chocolate Martini?

A White Chocolate Martini is a delicious and indulgent cocktail that combines the rich and creamy flavors of white chocolate with the smoothness of vodka.

It is a perfect drink for those who have a sweet tooth and enjoy the taste of chocolate.

How to make a White Chocolate Martini?

To make a White Chocolate Martini, you will need the following ingredients:

- 2 ounces of white chocolate liqueur

- 1 ounce of vanilla vodka

- 1 ounce of heavy whipping cream

- Ice cubes

- White, milk or dark chocolate shavings(for garnish).

1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.

2. Add the white chocolate liqueur, vanilla vodka, and cream to the shaker.

3. Shake the mixture vigorously for about 30 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.

4. Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.

5. Garnish the drink with white chocolate shavings.

6. Serve and enjoy!

To make the shavings, simply use your cheese grater (use a grater with holes that make a fine shred, not a coarse one). You will get a more light, powdery chocolate if the bar is chilled first.

Use a very good quality chocolate. No Hershey allowed in this!

I recommend Godiva's White Chocolate liqueur.

You can reverse these ingredients and use Godiva's regular Chocolate liqueur, garnished with White chocolate shavings.

Follow these simple steps to make your own White Chocolate Martini:

Other variations of a White Chocolate Martini

While the classic White Chocolate Martini recipe is delicious on its own, you can also experiment with different variations to suit your taste preferences.

Here are a few ideas:

- Mint White Chocolate Martini: Add a splash of mint liqueur to the classic recipe for a refreshing twist.

- Raspberry White Chocolate Martini: Muddle a few fresh raspberries in the shaker before adding the other ingredients to infuse the drink with fruity flavors.

- Salted Caramel White Chocolate Martini: Drizzle some salted caramel sauce into the martini glass before pouring in the cocktail for a sweet and salty combination.

- Hazelnut White Chocolate Martini: Substitute hazelnut liqueur for the white chocolate liqueur to add a nutty flavor to the drink.

- Scoop a generous amount of good quality vanilla ice cream, omit the ice, double all the other ingredients and blend them on high instead of using the cocktail shaker for an adult version of a White Chocolate Milkshake!

Feel free to get creative and experiment with different ingredients to create your own unique White Chocolate Martini variation!

My mother is ABSOLUTELY NUKING the atmosphere in Home Goods and nonchalantly walking away from it like she doesn't know that she just mega-farted.

Not only am I watching the horrified expressions of the unfortunate people who walk into the fallout, then I see them glance at me with a knowing/ blaming assumption written on their face like print.

They think I'M doing it!

Mom looks innocent and acts like a muddled old mugwump, leaving me looking like the Bag of Farts.

This is SO NOT FAIR!

Thank G-d for car stereos, loud music and errands. I am driving off some epic pent up frustration.

My mom is frustrating me and I don't want to yell. So I went to run errands instead.

She is so passive aggressive and is the most clandestinely rebellious person I know. The limits I put on my kids or natural consequences just don't work with her. An apple watch was to help her remember to take her meds or insulin and check her blood sugar. She kept forgetting her phone upstairs so the watch was supposed to solve that.

She leaves it upstairs with her phone- and misses the alarms.

It is time to start roasting these short ribs. I have to finish up my latest project TONIGHT. I've been restoring a beautiful vintage wardrobe that I bought for my bathroom some time ago. Since January I've been working on it and I'm sick of this; I need to get things put away! I'm almost done with the finishing touches, but then I have to clean my bathroom top to bottom.

To motivate myself, I'm putting the short ribs on so I can smell the delicious aroma of roasting meat as I work.
