Weh Really Di Go Aan Ya?

Let me introduce you to a segment I like to call "Weh Really Di Go Aan Ya?". It's a spin-off from the title blog that is saying "What's really going on here?"  This is where I will discuss pretty much anything that I feel could use a closer examination. 

To kick things off I know this particular video has been buzzing around and has gotten a mixed reaction.  To set the stage, a bus driver in Cleveland, OH told a patron that she cannot ride his bus because she did not have the proper fare amount.  The patron appeared to be intoxicated, started yelling in the bus driver's face (I'm imagining neck rolling and hands flying) and spit in his face.  There were also accounts that she started choking the driver but I don't know if it's true.  The driver then punched her in the face and knocked her out.  WHOA!!!

I won't post the video here but you can find it if you do a search.  *sigh* So I'm conflicted.  I feel like the driver didn't have to knock her out that bad. I understand his frustration but maybe calling the police, forcing her off the bus in another fashion something else instead of knocking her out.  My husband disagrees and felt like if you are going to hit someone be prepared to get hit back. I can't honestly say I know how I would react if someone were to spit in my face or put hands on me.  I really don't. What say you?

Review: Glade Expressions® Collection

So I am a BzzAgent and occasionally I am asked to do a review.  What's a BzzAgent you might ask?

Connecting people and their favorite brands since 2001, BzzAgent is the leading social marketing company. What's that mean to you? We put products in the hands of hundreds of thousands of real consumers and help them share their opinions about them with friends and family via reviews, Facebook posts, photos and videos, blog posts and more. We wouldn't call ourselves heroes, but it's okay if you want to.

So what does that mean for me?! I get to try out really cool products (sometimes for free) and give really great reviews of them. Being a BzzAgent is about helping friends discover new things. It’s showing off your favorite brands and influencing them with your feedback. It’s sharing opinions and starting conversations. It’s adding “Bzz” to the beginning of a bunch of words! 

So now that I'm done plugging courtesy of bzzagent.com.  My review today is of the new Glade Expressions® Collection. 

Weh Di Go Aan?!

Welcome! I'm Mrs. B and I've decided to jump into this blogging thing.  "Weh di go aan" is a phrase I grew up hearing a lot from my family.  My mom is from the beautiful country of Belize and while English is their native tongue, they do speak a bit of patois they call Creole (not to be confused with French Creole).  It's pretty much broken English.  This is something we say to greet each other or as you may say "What's up?!".  So I figured why not use it for my blog. You'll get used to me using various phrases on this site that you may or may not be familiar with. 

So weh di go aan with me? A lot I guess or else I wouldn't have started this blog..or maybe I just think I have things going on.  I'm originally from Brooklyn, NY but currently live in Louisville, KY via Atlanta, GA (I guess I'm a traveler lol).  I'm also a fairly newlywed having got married a year ago.  We just celebrated our first year in our home and we've loving life.  I'm married to a wonderful man and together we raise his teenage cousin. Trust me that's a feat in and of itself...I often feel like the late great Bernie Mac (sigh R.I.P.) when his show was on.

I work in the legal field and have been doing so for 14 years and I may share some office antics in here (nothing specific to protect the identity of the insane co-worker).  I'm typically the youngest person in many of the offices I work in and the things I've seen/learn there are hilarious.   My job isn't my life, though, and I have a few hobbies that I've enjoyed.  I am learning to sew and am developing a passion for it.  I've taken cake decorating classes and I enjoy cooking for my family.  I love to travel and I hope to engage in some more before little feet join the family.  I love to teach children but not necessarily in a formal setting like school but something like tutoring or Sunday school.  I also love to decorate my house and have taken a dip in the DIY pool for some projects. I’ll share some insight as to who I am and what else I do. So I hope you stick around and hang with me as we share with each other....weh di go aan?!
