A Day in the Life...

Are you Truly Thankful?

2010-12-14T13:49:00.000-06:00

On my lunch break, I stopped at the gas station up the street from my job. I haven't been there in about a week so I had to talk for a while with the people I normally see everyday. There's almost always a group of homeless men that loiter in and around the store everyday. They're very nice to me and I always treat them the same way. Well, a new guy spoke to me, and I spoke back. He told me

I'm In Love!

2010-12-03T09:21:00.000-06:00

I've been having an affair for too many years to count. No matter how much fun we had, I would always feel empty afterwards. It always felt like there should be something else. I never really felt complete. I catered to him, but it was never enough. He always wanted more. I gave my time, my energy, and opened my heart over and over again for it to just be snatched out and stepped on. But,

Somethin' Different

2010-11-22T16:37:00.004-06:00

Since the last time I posted, there have been a LOT of changes in my life. Bear with me, & I promise to tell you everything in time. The tone of this blog will definitely be taking a turn. Expect more videos, definite updates, and a bit more writing samples. Hope you guys are wonderful... Luv u 2 pieces.

Average Black??

2010-02-19T14:42:00.005-06:00

Ummkay, so the background information is: Woman called in to get information to pay account up to date. Woman spoke eloquently. White or black you say? WTH does it matter you say? He said black, I said white. He said she speaks very professionally, very pretty voice... for a black woman.... DEAD SILENCE...BIRDS CHIRPING...CRICKETS MAKING OUT... So that started a very heated discussion.

Well, What Had Happened Wuz....

2010-01-21T14:46:00.005-06:00

I'm human, I know. No matter what, shiggity happens... I realize that, but does it always hafta happen to ME? I have prolly like the most pared down laid back life, but I'm ALWAYS ALWAYS SWAMPED! There's always sumpin (yeah I said it) goin down in my life or within my teeny tiny circle of folks. Well, I've moved from a pretty decent sized house to a itty bitty yes its so precious coochie

Hi y'all! Happy MMX (2010). How's it hangin? It has been a WHILE since I've been here. Lemme give u updates. Well Marcus has made an almost 100% recovery. He is at home, he uses a cane because he's still a bit weak, of course most of the time, the cane is on his arm. He's so much better and it's all because of your outpouring of love. We really appreciate it. I started smoking

Superwoman

2009-09-13T22:55:00.004-05:00

I'm fake and I just realized it. Faker than a $4 bill. Faker than a pack of blonde 79 cent bargain rack hair at the beauty supply store. I didn't know... At least not until today. I'm everybody's cheerleader and everybody's friend. I can be superwoman. When trouble happens, I'm the one to call on. My shoulders are always free when someone needs to lean. I'm the life of the party. I can

Prayer Changes Things

2009-08-24T21:18:00.003-05:00

I wrote last time about my cousin Marcus. He's doing better y'all! He's been moved into another room though still in ICU. He's still on Dialysis, but things look so much better now. Marcus is still on the vent, but it's no longer in his mouth, he's been upgraded to a trache in his neck now. He can mouthe words, so you can have a two sided conversation with him. His attitude is coming back

2009-08-16T19:29:00.003-05:00

Well, it's been a while since I've spoken with you guys. So much has happened. I got a call, one week ago today from my cousin at the hospital. She was frantic. Our like a brother, homey in the hood, bestest cousin Marcus got sick. He has been borderline diabetic for a very long time. It caught up with him. Normal levels are around 120, his sugar spiked to over 1600! His kidneys shut

Interpretation

2009-05-27T22:07:00.000-05:00

Love is like an artist's palette. The slate is clean in the beginning. Then layer upon layer of trials, heartache, joy and smiles are added which can create such heart-wrenching beauty. The critical eye will only notice the tiny imperfections, but the eye of an Artist will see a work in progress. So beautiful it will rival and surpass the beauty of the Mona Lisa. So now u tell me why are we

A young girl never quite understood her worth. She was cute, but she couldn't see it. She was smart, but she didn't think so. She was always on the outskirts of popularity, never quite apart of the "in" crowd. Her mother would lie awake at night wondering what it was that she did wrong. Why couldn't her baby just see her the way her family saw her. Now she didn't come from a broken home and

No Service

2009-05-15T00:44:00.002-05:00

First off let me explain exactly why I haven't been here in so long. We had Comcast Internet Service (which really is very good if you can keep it working, a load of crap with all their new changes). I'm not sure if maybe lightning struck the box one night or if the changeover they're doing here in Mississippi had something to do with all the problems. Anyway, my internet died and I"ve been

Back Down Memory Lane

2009-04-07T21:45:00.004-05:00

So, I'm like all over the internet. I'm on all the big name sites. I was talking to an old high school classmate of mine a couple of days ago on one of these social networking sites & she told me that our high school had a board on ning. I thought long and hard about this. High School wasn't my all-time favorite. I graduated as fast as I could. First off, the city where I lived was just

It's Been a While

2009-03-02T15:53:00.006-06:00

Whew! It's been a looooong time since I've been here. I really have missed blogging. It was fun for a while, then we had no internet, soooooo..... I'm had several changes since my last post. I started locing my hair. Yaaaaaayyy for me! Then I stopped. I wasn't ready. We've moved into a house... That's a big happy hallellujah! I've also been planning my wedding, or trip to the JP, or quick run

Domino Effect

2009-01-04T19:20:00.005-06:00

I'm the type of person that really has a hard time committing to things. I seem to get bored really easily. I didn't like college because it was boring to me. It was a looooong time before I held a job for longer than 3 months. I have definitely grown a lot there. I would start to eat right, exercise & actually lose weight, then get tired of the same exercises or eating the same food and go

Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas to each and every one of you out there in bloggerville! I was leaving the mall in bumper to bumper traffic, with folks running around giving the bone, cursing out of the window because they can't get where they wanna get fast enough. DeMarius & I were singing to whatever song was playing on the radio and me with my ADD brain just kinda spaced out. I started

HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY!!! I have had a wonderful day y'all. I am thankful for so much. My family was healthy and happy. My friends are all doing fine. Everyone had enough to eat today. My nephew had dinner with us today and spent the full day here with my baby. I was able to enjoy my 64 year young mama all day long. We laughed, watched a movie, talked and ate (of course)! My bf was just

This evening, after me & J's hard day at work & D's long trying school day, we decided to go to a lovely dinner at the Chinese Restaurant across town. We've fixed our plates, sat down at the table & said our grace, then Fat Albert's big brother & daddy came into the restaurant. Before you get all politically correct on me, I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST FAT PEOPLE. I recognize that I'm one of them and

I could tell you that this no smoking thang has been a breeze & Chantix has just taken all my craving away and I never walk around scratchin & feenin like a crackhead lookin for a crumb and I'm a totally new person who's never in a bad mood because I have a taste for something but I can't satisfy those desires and sometimes to take my craving away I have to just pour the contents of lil salt

They Can Just Kiss It!

2008-11-11T15:55:00.004-06:00

Let me start by saying that I am normally a rather upbeat (to a point), positive (I try so hard), type of person, but lately. Ooooh Wee Jesus! These folks have been getting all up on my last nerve. And it's not even the customers. We've just been vibing and gettin along all good & wonderful. I'm even gettin along with the more evil, ghetto (gold birdsnest, weave-head, lollipop suckin, neck

We woke up HYPE this morning. November 4, 2008 was a monumental day in our household. Everyone went about their way and made it to the polls about 7:05am. The drive over gave me the time to talk to my baby about the importance of voting. I told him how people looked down on blacks & women & treated them like second class citizens. I told stories of people being beaten, hosed, bitten by dogs

I'm sure you guys have heard the new track by Jazmine Sullivan "Bust Your Windows". I think she has a gorgeous voice. I can vibe to the song & it gets me all hype first thing in the morning when I'm on my way to work. This song does

I have definitely had an angel in my corner all day long. She's been on my shoulder, laying across my back and assisting me in binding my tongue in the name of Jesus! Well y'all, today was my first non-smoking day and sadly I smoked.

2008-10-20T01:37:00.000-05:00

Well, I began Chantix (for the 2nd time) a little over a week ago. I absolutely despise this medicine. It causes nausea and/or vomiting, gas, constipation, depression, suicidal thoughts, night sweats, insomnia, among other things. I

My Purpose - How I've changed

2008-10-13T22:45:00.000-05:00

This is the way I looked before. I was NOT happy with any part of my life. I walked around smiling, laughing, but sort of in a fog. I was going through the motions. I never felt like I was actually being myself. I started a journey years before, but I was always big on what "other people" said, so I always gave in. On August 21, 2007, I went natural. When I walked out of the salon, I held

I've never blogged before!!!

2008-10-05T23:37:00.000-05:00

My blogging cherry was just popped. It feels kinda funny. This isn't quite how I expected it to be. It's really too late for me to be awake, but too early for me to go to sleep. I'm a mother to a young fella & a girlfriend to an older than young fella. When they close their eyes, that's my time to do me. Each & every night. Maybe I can scream to wake 'em? Nah... That might make their
