The GumboShop

So, I went to this restaurant called the GumboShop and it was amazing, I love spicy Cajun food. My favorite was the File Gumbo with Chicken and Sausage its was beyond delicious. The chicken was extremely tender, juicy, and mouth watering. Oh, the sausage was a mixture of flavors spicy, tangy, and fresh. I wish they served the gumbo with bread instead of crackers it would have tasted a lot better. The people there were so nice and told me about the history of New Orleans. How it was founded by the Duke d'Orleans in 1718. I could tell this culture means so much to them. Their liveliness and true southern hospitality showed throughout the entire visit I would love to come back but I have to watch what I eat all that seafood is not good for the baby. I had a wonderful experience and came out not only with a full belly but a learning experience as well.

She needs to go...

I'm a mother now, and I really cannot explain this wonderful feeling. I never knew you could love someone so much with only knowing each other for a short amount of time... My amazing feeling quickly changed after Blanche tells me that Stanley raped her the day I went to the hospital. I felt numb, I felt betrayed, and I also felt like it was time for Blanche to go. Honestly, I don't know what to believe, Blanche is known to lie but Stanley... I just don't know, I trusted them both... But Blanche is a liar, corrupt, and is so immoral. She needs to go, I cannot deal with her bringing damage to my family. Yes, I know Stanley and I have issues but what couple does not, we will work it out... I hope, but for Blanche there is no hope for her. Stanley has called a doctor to get Blanche and take her away. She thinks Shep Huntleigh is coming to take her away on this amazing vacation in the islands. I hate doing this, but my heart hurts of all the Blanche has put me through, I don't deserve this, yes I left my family and everything behind long ago but I've learned that you have to live life for you because when your unhappy then you cannot make anyone around you happy. You can't love, celebrate, or enjoy life... So I left I'm not entirely proud of it but I wouldn't be married to a man I love dearly or have the most beautiful baby anyone has ever laid their eyes on. I have so much to be happy and truly grateful for but my own sister is the reason why I can't be how sad is that. I hope I will be forgiven by her, she will understand why I'm doing this, and also get the help she needs. Its going to hurt for sometime I know, but I'm ready to move on and raise my baby with love and security. In the end, Blanche needs to go...

So much to Deal with...

I'm truly exhausted with both Stanley and Blanche. This is suppose to be a happy time, between me, Stanley, and our unborn child. But of course its not, not when Blanche is around. Stanley, told me some disturbing news about the real reasons Blanche left home, I couldn't believe what I was hearing, having a relationship with a 17 year old boy, living a life of immoralities, and becoming corrupt after finding out her husband Allan was a homosexual. I just cannot take this anymore all Stanley and Blanche want to do is find ways to get rid of each other... Sometimes I think they should run off together ha, how funny would that be. Oh my, I feel as if I'm going insane, I never get a moment to think for myself in this place. Every second I'm getting pulled in different directions with Stanley's bowling and attempts to get rid of Blanche or Blanche's attempts to get rid of Stanley and her many hour long baths she takes. Its like she takes those baths to cleanse not just her body but her mind and all those bad memories she has caused for herself. This is to much for me to deal with, I'm constantly trying to make everyone happy but what about me? Tomorrow's Blanche's birthday and there is so much to plan and decorate. I just want this to go smoothly and hopefully Mitch shows up even though Stanley told him about Blanche's corrupt moments, I exactly had hopes for them, they come from different backgrounds but seem to be so close in the months Blanche's has been here. I wish they would just run off and get married and live their lives away from us. I can't believe I'm talking like this, Blanche is my sister and I love her to death, but in the end a person can only deal with so much, I can only deal with so much. I really hope that day comes with Blanche leaves because her staying here is growing conflict more and more by the minute.
