Friends!

I don't know if everyone is like me. I have so many people that are close to my heart. One in particular is ShaRon! I have known this lady for some time now and I really appreciate her "HEART". She has helped me in so many ways in my life she just don't know. I must say out of all of my friends... she and I have so many situations/things in common. Even though we don't always agree we always love one another. I appreciate her being just her. I learn so much from her beyond the brattiness! LOL.

I opened the box of my things that I left at your house and it had a wonderfully cute message from you to me. It's so cute. Believe it or not I love it when you call me "Annie". It's your signature name for me. It's soo cute. It's like you took time out to think of me and find a name that's fitting and cute. I will forever thank God for every little step of our lives that has intertwined.

Thanks for being a good friend all of these years! God Bless!

My Friend!!

Here's Ta-Nisha and I! We always have fun!

Ok too funny!

It's so sad that my Washing Machine was acting up on me and then the new brother in law came over and pulled the pin out of the hole and pronto... the machine never shook again. I am so mad because Dad kept saying, You have to pull the pin out... But, I didn't see the pin and he didn't see the pin...

I will be scrapping this event!

P.S. the clothes are cleaning fast and fine!

My Blessin'

God is Good all the time! I am so "Thankful" My very first Washer and Dryer! LOL I do not have to go to the laundrymat. I will miss it but, convenient will WIN every time! Today is my first day washing all of my clothes. I really needed to do this so bad. I was supposed to recieve these machines one week ago but, I'm not complaining. My first thought about my washer is making some noises that I'm not used to in the house! It's so funny because I was talking on the phone I didn't know what them funny noises were... While typing this I found out that the machine needed to be balanced. When I ran back there becuase it sounded like it was about to damage the wall and everything else in it's way... I saw it shakin' like it' s was going through something very bad! LOL Funny experience.

I'm back with a new message about my Blessin' ... How about it's been two (2) hours and I still don't have this thing BALANCED! LOL It's so funny I can't even get mad. All I can do is look at it. I just don't have the solution other than continue to try and try again! LOL

I Be Clubbin!!!

Too funny!

And the word says...

Isaiah 40 (King James Version)31

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Alisha Called

Alisha called me and let me know that she got the book in the mail. I'm so happy! I'm even more happy that she loves it! She told me she was crying! It made me feel really good! I loved doing every part of the book! She's my Bestest Friend! I thank God for good people! And, I'm happy I made her Happy!





This is the front cover of her book... It has an orange theme because it's her favorite color!


This was the morning of her 30th Birthday. I stopped by that morning and whipped out the camera.



Me and Alisha

smile Today----> SMILE TODAY---->NOW SMILE BIGGER

You know... this week many of my friends have been reaching out to me. I feel so Blessed! I'm so Thankful!!! God, is showing me that I don't have to ever feel like I'm alone or without. God, is here to feel all needs, wounds and provide us with all of the JOY we can handle (and then some)!!

Today, I wanted to see who this wonderful person was that left me the most kindest message on my Blog. And, as I found her Blog, I read it and listened to the music that played in the background I began to Cry! The song that was playing is one of the most BEAUTIFUL songs ever made. Celine Dione, "Because you Love Me"! I was frozen in the moments of being Loved! I don't have any children and most of you know that but, I did have the BEST Nephew in the WORLD! He loved me! He Loved me like the song Celine Dione sang on my new found friend's Blog. The first time I heard this song was on the movie "Upclose and Personal" with Robert Redford and Michelle Pfeiffer. I don't exactly remember the first time I seen it but, I do remember that I cried! and I cried! That movie was filled with "Pure Love" to me! and listening to this song right now with my tender heart it just touched my soul. This movie is a Must See! Reflecting on my nephew I love him! What a "JOY" is was to have my nephew in my Life!!! I'm so thankful!! Celine Dione was singing to my Heart! My Empty Spot! It was totally a moment that help me reflect on the importance people play in your life!!! I'm so thankful for all of my friends, family and sistah's!!!!

Today's Ramblings!

Today... I got up and thought to clean up! I've needed to clean up for a while but, I've been putting it off. I love being home not doing anything at times. But, with the heavy burden of needing to dump somethings and just vacuum I need to get some things done. Well enough of those ramblings. Oh! I must say for the record... That I have the best neighbors in the WORLD! I don't know what to get for them Blessing me so. I need give them something but, I feel like... What do you give someone that has everything? I want to buy them dinner or many be gas... or I just don't know. I'm at a lost!

I am feeling a little weird today. I miss my Nephew! I want to talk with him and touch his face. You know its interesting. I was looking at his face and I was reflecting on who he was and how God reveal things about a person. I thank God for picking me up and carrying me through this whole ordeal. I truly don't know where I would be if it had not been for the LORD! I MEAN THAT!!! I'm not sad. I'm just a little empty.

Lateefah's Pregnant!!!!

The day before my Nephew died... We found out that my Best Friend is Pregnant! I'm so excited. They are Happy! The Whole Family is Happy!! It's so interesting that Lateefah and I have known each other so long and now one of us is Pregnant. I'm so happy for her. She's so Blessed!

I'm ready!
