Ms.Cheevious

We interrupt our regularly scheduled blogging to bring you a HOT mom picture.  Yes, we (and by we, of course, I mean me.  Here in Ms. Cheeviousland, I am pretty much royalty, so I’ve adapted the third person “royals” speaking style. Just an FYI.) were going about our daily blog business, writing about the state of the economy, and how it does or does not affect us, when we were just a bit distracted by some hot mommy pics.  This is what we aspire to people!

There were tons of shots.  This one (above) was our favorite.  You can peruse more here.

Anyhoo.  Just thought we’d send you a “hump-day” inspiration.  If you are as hot or hotter than Ms. Alba, well, yay for you!  But if you are like most, and still only strive to be in shape and personally sexy, then this should inspire you to get your bloody arse in shape now, shouldn’t it!?  Get on it people.  God knows we’ve been working our “arse” off five days a week… pilates, yoga, stair climbing, weight training, SPX Fitness, you name it!  Then again, we can’t complain.  We DID, after all, make it past the first cut of the Lingerie Football League tryouts for the Los Angeles Temptation, did we not?  We wrote about it (and posted a video of the tryouts) in the post “Lingerie… Football, That Is.”

Okay – enough of the “we”  crap!  Really girls… I post hot photos like this, not only for the cheap thrills and excitement you or your significant “other” can derive from them (or perhaps you AND that person), but also because of the sheer reality, that WOMEN WATCH OTHER WOMEN.  Why?  Because a) we appreciate beauty and hotness, and b) we WANT to BE that pinnacle of beauty and hotness.

Whether you agree that Jessica Alba is HOT or not, you will agree that she has a fantastic body, right?

So here I am again, preaching to the choir, I’m sure, but GET ON IT LADIES!!  (And to my male readers: please just appreciate what I’m doing here).  I’ve said it before, but if you really truly want something (like a hot body) you’re the only one who can really MAKE it happen.  Get to it.  Then report back.

Love you people!  Mmmmmmphhhuuuuhhhh!

xoxo,

Ms. Cheevious

…for more people in her life that like to have fun and enjoy life to the fullest, for more chocolate to eat and fine wine to drink, for more opportunities to travel to interesting and exciting places, for more parties and events with free stuff, for more of that lap of luxury lifestyle she is accustomed to… and of course, Ms. Cheevious is on the hunt every day for MORE WORK.  Or any work will do!

That’s the main reason I’ve not posted in forever.  I am so sorry my pretties.  I know I should be more disciplined and I definitely should not promise content I can’t deliver.  I know I promised oodles of creative entries on the “Desperate Measures” front, and in my defense, I did shoot and record a cute video that would have personified every man (or woman’s) modern-day job hunt hilariously, but as I mentioned on my “author” facebook fan page, the parents of the girl I used vetoed it. HA! Who knew? Actually, as a single mom, I do get it. I use to black out the faces of any pictures I posted online of my kids, because I didn’t approve of putting them up in cyberspace, right there for pedophiles to fantasize about. 

It was a fun little video though, and believe me, I’ve been toying with re-editing it to include only me… 

I just have had NO TIME, literally.  Here’s a quick laundry list of what I’ve been doing:

1. Las Vegas for Daytime Emmys
2. Boston for the Fourth of July
3. Home on a Wednesdaycoincided by a two week visit from my 15 year old son (who lives out of state with his dad).
4. My Birthday Party on the following weekend.
5. Entertaining the teenager.
6. But above all…. that which consumes me night and day:  JOB HUNTING…

It all started back near the end of June.  My boyfriend (M.C. Nugget – and for you newbies, I change the names off all my peeps here to preserve their anonymity, unless of course, they are famous and misbehaving… then I dish it out baby. You can get a list of “aliases” on my “About This Blog” Page) and I traveled to Las Vegas a few weekends back because we had a friend who hooked us up with a virtually FREE room at the Bellagio, and we had a very good friend who was nominated for a Daytime Emmy.  We couldn’t miss it, and Nuggie footed the bill (the lovely specimen of male human flesh that he is) - so I was off!

We were home ONE day, and hopped a plane to Boston to visit his family for a week over the Fourth of July.  Boy was it FUN.  That’s where we shot the video for my little “Desperate Measures” series…. the one that got lost on the cutting room floor… ha ha.

Well, from the list above – you know the rest…  It’s been a litlte crazy.  Here is a fun picture of me  at my birthday celebration (which also coincided with my bff’ Sheila’s birthday – so we joined forces and painted the town RED) with just a few too many cocktails in me, and Nuggie – well… the same… ha ha.

So there you have it lovely ladies and gentlemen.  Fun on the not-so-sunny-these-days coast of Southern California…

I will ABSOLUTELY do a new installment very soon.  Until then: Keep getting up, Keep a good attitude, Keep Eating Chocolate and Drinking Fine Wine (but of course), and Love your People!

Love YOU People!  Mmmmmphhhhuuuhhhhhhh!

xoxo,

Ms. Cheevious

Just sayin.

I know everyone talks and is writing creatively about the importance of exerting our own “independence” – especially in regard to women, but I’m kinda tired.

Oy.

I’ve been working so hard lately (no joke – like 6 am to 11 pm every night), I figure if you’ve got good people in your life you can depend on, it makes it all worth it.  The getting up, the emails, the running around, the worry.  Oy – the worry.  But with good people to depend on, my my, how sweet it is.  It brings to mind once again how life is not really so HARD, per se, but one great big adventure.  And no one said adventures would always be EASY.

So, on this Fourth of July be sure to tell those you depend on how happy you are they’re in your life.

THEN you can be independently happy you’ve got it so good.

Now, get out there and create your own fireworks, but be safe my lovely male and female adventurers! 

Stay tuned next week for Desperate Measures II – the first video installment in my light-hearted series about a serious subject: unemployment and economic hard times. 

Love you people!!! Mmmmmppphuuuuuuhhhhhhh!!!!

xoxo,

Ms. Cheevious

Desperate times call for desperate measures.  What an understatement.

Do you know how many formerly highly successful people I know who are currently struggling financially, out of work and wondering where their next meal is coming from? Let’s not even talk about paying the homeowner’s insurance, health insurance or credit cards. We’re talking about surviving – at its base level.

I’ve got friends and acquaintences who have been looking for any sort of work for months — even YEARS!  Can you believe this?  Believe it.

Trust me – I do not say these things lightly.  I don’t like to put the spotlight on negativity.  We all know (any of my readers know, that is), that I am NOT one to “cave” or “bandwagon” it because of what people say or how they choose to act.   I believe we create the drama or at the very least, fan the flames of depression (or lack of affluence, success, employment, moolah) oftentimes by merely giving credence to it (the lack of jobs, money, success, etc. that seems to be out there).  I still hold firm to the belief that we create the lives we live.  We can be as successful as we truly desire — IF — we go for it fearlessly.

BUT (oh yeah – there is a BIG BUT here) – when everyone you know has at least one friend (more than likely several friends) out of work, and struggling to make ends meet, you have got to pay attention PEOPLE!  

I will not be one to turn a blind eye and pretend nothing is happening – that we do not have a problem .  And neither should you. 

I know I won’t.  Nope.  Not when that problem is not only staring me in the face, but it barged in my front door last October, and has now made itself at home, shacking up on my living room sofa, and using up all of my toothpaste.

And not when unemployment rates are skyrocketing, soup kitchens can’t keep enough food, or feed enough people, and recycled clothing shops have stopped buying shoes and clothes because they have too many people trying to sell their wears. 

So you know what?  I am sick of it.  I’ve NEVER been one to unsuccessfully hunt for a good job!  What the HECK is going ON out there?  I was (and am) always the one to say “I’m going to get a job.”  And I did (and DO)!

A GOOD job!  The kind people could marvel at!

But seemingly, not so these days.  I can’t tell you the countless numbers (hundreds for sure) of highly educated (chock-full-a-”social media experience,” “internet savvy,” “management level”) friends and passers-by in my life who’ve been looking for work in their respective fields, but have resorted to applying for ANY sort of job (receptionist, restaurant hostess, retail clerk) – - STILL to no avail. They’re competing against thousands of equally over-qualified individuals, and can’t seem to “stand out” above the rest for that $12/hour (plus tips) job.

So that’s it. I’m done.  This has got to stop.  And it is starting with ME. 

Over the next couple of weeks (or as long as my creativity lasts) I am going to hit the pavement – literally.  I am going to use any and all methods I can “employ” to obtain solid offers for a GOOD job, and I will NOT settle for anything less than what I deserve (we’re talking big bucks here people). 

I’ve got some good ideas, but feel free to offer your suggestions.  It’s going to be a wild ride folks!  The gloves are off!  I’ve got my camera in hand.  Watch out moguls!  I’m coming for you!  I’ll show YOU who stands out above the rest.

Stay tuned my lovelies. And keep fighting!

Love you people!  Mmmmmphhhuuuhhhhh! 

xoxo,

Ms. Cheevious

Okay.  I know.  I have too many monikers.  Ms. Cheevious, Yummy, etc.  But did you know I am also a SUPER HERO? 

Yep!

And with that, comes another moniker, or alias of course. In my case it is “Brat-Tay.”

I’m just ONE of the Sherwood Girls. 

Haven’t you heard of us?

We’re Smar-Tay, Ice-Tay, Pah-Tay, Hot-Tay, Sport-Tay, Zes-Tay and MOI — Brat-Tay (because we all know I LOVE to get my way).  Yeah.  We’ve been fighting bad guys —  well — just about all our lives. 

We spent some time this weekend trying to vacation… and wouldn’t you know we were accosted by a Mayan Warrior??  We were forced to go all Super Hero up in his grill, just so we could get back to Beverly Hills and our Sprinkles Cupcakes!  Can YOU believe it? HA!

Watch it and enjoy!

If you cannot view this (some email subscribers) follow this link, then be sure to come back and comment! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVasjwt1wfM

Have a fantastic week everyone!  Don’t do anything to make the Sherwood Girls get all up in your grill!  Stay tuned for more Sherwood Girl Capers!

Love you people!  Mmmmmppphhhhuuuuhhhh!

xoxo,

Ms. Cheevious
