Yesterday I made my what seems to be monthly trip to church. Since I usually get about three hours of sleep a night, Sunday mornings are usually when I try to catch up on rest and take it easy during the afternoon watching football. It was Men’s Day, and after I heard that Jeremiah Wright […]
Read More A Message From HeavenWe make big deals of birthdays. We should. Tomorrow isn’t promised and the beginning of a new year is a reason to celebrate. The last three October 7th’s have been something else for my mother. In 2011, she was just diagnosed with cancer. In 2012, she had undergone surgery, chemo, radiation, and was celebrating overcoming […]
Read More A Birthday EarnedThis is the wallpaper on my music computer. Not only is it a nice picture, but I keep this one up because of when it was taken. It was Memorial Day Weekend, 2010 at Panama City Beach, FL. I wasn’t on the trip, but it was when Timile was pregnant. Not knowing what she was […]

Read More What Mother?Its been a tough week. Been playing catch up physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally the last few days and usually along with that comes writer’s block. Also, my mornings have been about filling out applications in my effort to once again go corporate so the time I would write I’ve been working or just sitting […]
Read More ChemoAnyone who really knows me can tell you that I am a HUGE A Tribe Called Quest fan. Actually there’s a clue on the About Me page in which I am sitting with Cydney wearing a Tribe t-shirt as well as two videos posted with Cydney and their music playing in the background. If you […]
Read More My Parents and A Tribe Called QuestI was talking to a friend of mine yesterday who is also a single parent. They were telling me about someone they had been dealing with for a couple months and I asked are they ready to meet the little one. Their reply was maybe. I asked “What was the criteria on you letting someone […]
Read More Meeting the Kids: A Dating PieceThank everyone for their prayers, well wishes, phone calls, and various ways of showing support. My mother is as okay as she can be given the circumstances.
