I Wrote Him

I finally wrote my  nephew thats been in jail for about 16 years or so. In the first letter it took me a few weeks to fill up two pages, now on my third letter the words flow more freely from pen to pad. From reading his letter he was visualizing everything I was writing. [...]

Have you seen my mother?

It seems like ever since my father passed away my mother has disowned her children. It started with the oldest sister complaints of my  mother not returning calls and making visits while the car was still running. The oldest sister is actually from my daddy’s first marriage but my mother raised her as much as [...]

I Wonder What He’s Up Too

I now realize that there are going to be certain parts of the year that is going to be harder than others emotionally for me [like today]. I usually try to deal with my emotions quickly and then tuck them somewhere far away. Dealing with the lost of my father has been one of the most [...]

September Challenge: The Diva, The Housewife, The Heaux

I’m being stubborn again with this blog challenge. I don’t want to post a picture of me and my family, like what kind of request is that? Instead I’d like to give a run down of my sisters. They are the most interesting part of my family tree.  Even though we are sisters and we [...]

Mommy in Training

Every other few days I hang out with one of my homegirls who has two sons, ages two and seven. The other day I got down on the floor to color with the two-year old. Before my vacation, when I went to GA it had been years since I’d picked up a Crayola Crayon. It [...]

Obsession

I was over @Buttahflyhustla’s blog reading her ” I Can Dream Can’t I” post and it brought to mind an obsession I use to have a few years ago. I was truly obsessed with having a baby.  I would watch the Baby Story, Read Baby Magazines, Browse through Baby Name meanings and books and day [...]

Be Ok-Merry Christmas!

Ahhh what a nice evening! I had to work but it wasn’t really WORK! I got off at about 3pm and hit the streets of Palm Springs. I headed home to change into something a little more comfortable. Headed to my favorite chill spot with my laptop for a Pumpkin Spice Latte and read blogs, youtubed, [...]
