The way I feel!

Sunday, July 12, 09

As I get back int he habit of blogging. I am truly in the process of reconstruction. I know that may sound simple but it is not. I am have so much work to do inside until I can't even began to tell anyone.

For the last 3 months a whole lot has taken place in my life. Some people are in your life for a reason or a season. WHICH one are you?

I am at peace at the moment and peace is good for me. So many things has happen for a reason, so many things happen for the good & so many things happen for the bad. I am in a healing process and it is a continuing thing. Everyday I keep P.U.S.Hing. I know that things can only get better if I want them to or allow them too. So as of TODAY things WILL get better for me. I am also in the stages of battling this weight thing. YES, I said it. Now, don't get me wrong. I love myself however, I want to be healthy for and that is a difference. So once I get it under control I can drop the weight off. I have 5 mos to drop atleast 60lbs. Can it be done. I guess we will have to see. I will post updates as to what is what and how much I have lost each week.

MJ Memorial

I have to say this was an emotional day for me. I am so emotional until it can not make sense. Watching the MJ Memorial, I cried and cried and cried. I have to admit I am still adjusting to it all. I love Michael Jackson, his music will live on and on. No words can describe the way the family is feeling only if you been through it. I know because when my brother died a part of me felt like it was rip out of my heart. I know I will see my brother when my time comes.


In the words of Al Sharpton, "You daddy was not strange, he just face strange things"

RIP or RIH You will be truly missed.

I have been MIA

Yes, I know I have been MIA I have been so busy with school and trying to get so many things off the ground that I can not believe it.

I am taking my second class for school it is going so far so good. I just have to re-adjust to it all. I am now taking MANAGEMENT: THEORY, PRACTICE AND APPLICATION which consist of writing a whole lot. Which I am learning so much in this class so I am kind of digging it.

Help The Breast Cancer Site

Help The Breast Cancer Site raise an additional $10,000 for breast cancer research by clicking on the big pink button at http://www.thebreastcancersite.com.


Every click also helps raise money for the free mammogram program (National Breast Cancer Foundation).


Let others know! The Breast Cancer Site is 75% towards their goal but they need a little extra help to raise the $10,000 by April 30.

Domestic violence

Domestic violence is a very real issue for many women and some men...with a member base of over 23,000 members as much as it pains me to think about it, the fact remains that there are some members on the site who are suffering at the hands of domestic violence.

This is a thread to post information for those members who may need help, support, statistics, about DV and they can gather this information ANONYMOUSLY, and know they have the support of the members...because it's easier said than done when trying to leave an abusive relationship, especially when you feel like the worth and fight has been beat out of you.

*85-95% of all domestic violence victims are female.
*Over 500,00 women are stalked by an intimate partner each year.
*5.3 million women are abused each year.
*1,232 women are killed each year by an intimate partner.
*Domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women.
*Women are more likely to be attacked by someone they know rather than by a stranger.

Links & Numbers:
National Domestic Violence Hotline
1-800-799-SAFE (7233) or TTY 1-800-787-3224

For those of you going through this battle, you're not alone, there is help a nd support, and you're in the prayers of many!
