Dear Tyler Perry,I hope this letter reaches you in good health. (Do you remember when people really used to write that in letters?)What's up? I figured I'd dedicate today's blog to you since today is the day I normally watch your TV shows. While I admire your overall testimony and story of success... I figure... Continue Reading →
Crafting 101
Last year, I must say. I out did myself in the crafting area. It's no secret that I sometimes like to dab into crafting. Between being able to draw/paint and having a mother who always did crafts with us or projects for the house, I'd say it's almost second nature to me. I own a... Continue Reading →
Serenity
What do you do with the circumstantial episodes that you can not change?2012 taught me a lot about serenity prayers... While it is so easy to recite the well known Serenity Prayer, I most definitely learned how hard it was to pray a serenity prayer of accepting a situation that may not be my own... Continue Reading →
To work out or not to work out?
Last year I took on a new form of working out. I started boxing. The crazy part is that I'm such a girly girl and never imagined myself boxing. I started taking cardio boxing at Title Boxing Club in May 2016 after being invited by a friend. At that point I realized I had reached... Continue Reading →
Taming the Beast
As previously mentioned, my best and probably favorite gift I've received to date is a puppy for my 31st bday whom I named Kingston. I think anyone who truly knows me, knows that I've desired a dog now for about 10 years whom I wanted to name King or Prince. To my surprise, I get... Continue Reading →
Be Humble or Be Humbled

I will definitely go back and look for it.I always loved the saying "Be Humble or Be Humbled"... so much til I'd... Continue Reading →
6 years a Naturalista and Counting…
January 2011 I made the revolutionary decision to make that month's relaxer my last one. Here I am 6 years later and completely in bliss with my hair. What's crazy is that I'm often told that I don't have "bad hair" so natural works for me. Let's just say this. No matter what your hair... Continue Reading →
The Beauty of Progress
Growing up and maturing comes with a lot of changes in just about every area of your life. No one, and I mean no one, reaches their epitome of growth as long as they are breathing and able to have a great quality of life. In recent months to years, I've realized more and more... Continue Reading →
Mic Check 1-2, 1-2!
Wow. I most definitely can't believe that I haven't blogged in over a year. Where oh where does the time go? So it's not that I didn't think about blogging, but the actual act of sitting down and making it happen just doesn't seem to happen. So I'm making a seemingly cameo appearance here today...

My Thanksgiving Contribution
Thanksgiving has come and gone. People always ask, "Well what did you cook?" As if I can't cook. Truth be told. I never was allotted the opportunity to do too much since my mother carried the traditon for years and since even her last Thanksgiving with us, my sister wanted to do it all by... Continue Reading →
