Three of Me
2015 March, I was hanging out with my friend. I had purchased Blue Bell Butter Crunch and we went to her apartment.

Madness Uprooted
It has been a minute since I have written.
Things these days don’t have to be about me but, preferably time with members of my family.
The movie “The Butler” is a must see movie. What I can tell you is that it is a history lesson for everyone [...]
Live Life To The Fullest
Reports say that gas prices have dropped .10 to .14 in some places.
For starters, I am going to take it there: To those who believe, the Bible says that we should take no thought in saying, what shall we eat?
Or what shall we drink? Or, where-withal [...]
Money That Kills
Credit card companies will go from trying to work with you, to threats asking “Do you want to go to jail?”
These are what you would call scare tactics. This reminds me of the movie “Fight Club” starring Brad Pitt who was the alter ego [...]
Letting Go Of Good To Receive Better
It seems as though the months are moving fast.
Or is it just me sitting here not doing anything while everyone and everything else in this world is continuing to move? Look at it this way: Have you still not gotten what you want or where you [...]
What Does Healthy Look Like?
The doctor says, “According to my chart, you should be weighing in at 150.”

Money That Kills
Gambling (The devil’s chip playground).
Let us say that you have a decent job, a family, a beautiful home, a nice car and good children. Even if you don’t have all these things, say you had money and there was this habit that you became [...]
The Year Of Silence
When I awake.
I woke up this morning, took a deep breath, closed my eyes, said a little prayer before I rose up to do my normal routine. When I awake, I lay in the bed and go through what needs to be done for the day in my mind. It’s so [...]
Becoming An Alpha Female
I am great… I am wonderful… I am rich…
When will the thought of the “I am’s” disappear? They won’t! You desire to be better than the next person, correct? Uh-huh. Now that we are off into the year, what [...]
Honesty Outweighs Perfection
Now that the holiday season is over and we have entered into a New Year, did you make a resolution?
Sure you did. Let us all be honest. We say what we are going to do, write them down, stick them somewhere we will see them each day. Then [...]
Whistling A Tune
What is your favorite song during the Christmas season?
Could it be the well known Christmas Song from Nat King Cole or Hark The Harold Angels Sing? No matter what the song may be, it brings a certain feeling to the Christmas season. Even [...]
It Starts With You~It Starts At Home
My generation that grew up in the 70’s knows what it’s like to obey your parents.
Some parents would give that look to you which says “If you don’t behave I’m going to knock you into next week.” Growing up, no one thought it to [...]
Pound For Pound (Relationship Rehab)
No, it’s not what you think it is.
I’m not talking about cake your mother or grandmother bakes for Thanksgiving or Christmas. I mean, how many of us like pound cake anyway? *raising hand.* I’m here to talk about relationships gone [...]
Hypnosis Or Mind Games
I love finding ways to improve myself in getting where I want to be in life.
I’m sure everyone does it one way or another. Everyday I wake, I have in mind what I am going to do for that day. Then, I lose it. See, I am a writer, and published [...]
Would You Mind?
A long journey
*Sigh* I can remember this like it was yesterday and I still talk about this to anyone who would listen about the time I went to see Janet Jackson in concert. Tell me, why on God’s green earth did I have to travel thousands [...]
Baby Talk
After picking up a few groceries, my sister told me that she had to go pick up my niece for a doctor’s appointment.
Clearly I didn’t know what was wrong so, I questioned the situation. I was told not to worry that my niece was just congested. [...]
Identity Theft
We go around thinking that what’s in our pockets and purses are safe.
You never look behind you to see if you are going to get snuck upon and get your information stolen. Once that happens, you have to go through procedures to get your identity [...]
Take A Number
“Take a number and please be seated we will be with you in just a moment.”
Those words can actually cause a panic in some people having to wait to see a doctor. No matter what you are going to see the doctor for, it still can be nerve [...]
Drama Exit Stage Left
Whew! I’m glad that you could make it today.
I had a rough week last week. My neighbors were outside drinking and being obnoxious and extremely rude. I peaked my head out of the door to see what all the commotion was about and then my [...]
