I've been doing a whole lot of this at home this week: 

Enjoying the blessings that sometimes we often forget we have and don't take time to enjoy. Family & friends are a very special thing & I have loved catching up with them this week. As usual, here ya go....

"Each of us is an original."

"Unshakable faith is faith that has been shaken."

"Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have!"

I've gotten many questions/comments this week about several different things; some serious, some laughable. Either way, it's time I answer some of them again. So, I'm going to give you both sides...McCool inside the ropes and McCool outside the ropes! Choose which one you want to believe (that's normally what we do anyway, right?) :)

The draft: 

ITR (inside the ropes): I'm happy to welcome Melina and Candice to Smackdown. Hopefully I'll be able to personally welcome each of them. Melina coming to SD really benefits me. This way I'll not only go down in history as the first ever Divas Champion, but as the first diva to be both diva's champion and women's champion. And believe me, it's going to be done real soon. As for Candice, whatever. I mean, didn't she tell us she got drafted to Raw because she was too hot for network TV? I'm just saying...what happened? Not so hot anymore? Is her hotness gone? Either way, two words....fresh meat!

OTR (outside the ropes): People kept asking if I cared what brand I was on. To answer this, no. I didn't care one way or another. I always say it's a blessing to be with WWE. With every change, comes another opportunity.

Locker Room full of girls: 

ITR:  Yes there are alot of girls. Sometimes, entirely too many for my liking. Simply put, quarters can get a little cramped & I get tired of hearing about how they wanna do this and wanna do that....I have a great idea. How about learning how to work inside the ring and give me a little competition. How about that? 

OTR:  Some of you were very specific with things you've read, stuff you've "heard," "heat" that some supposedly have. I've said it a ton of times...I could sit here and defend myself & defend others until I'm blue in the face, but where would that get me? Nowhere! Truth is, if you're reading whatever websites produce these statements, you're going to believe what you want to believe anyway. All I know is that some of the things you guys are wondering about really are laughable. It's just funny how so many people know so much about the superstars personally and we've never even met them. 

WM ring attire: I got a lot of comments complimenting me on my wrestlemania ring attire.

ITR:  Yes, it looked good! It was bright and beautiful, just like me!

OTR:  We have an amazingly talented seamstress who did an unbelievable job and yes, it is by far my favorite outfit. 

On that note, I'm going to hit the bed and try to catch some zz's. I hope all of you are doing well. Remember...

Faith to fight the good fight, heart to believe and soul to search within!

Love, mm
