Hello Dear Ones!! It has been a very long time since I visited Spaceland! I hope you and your loved ones are well! I am on Facebook most of the time these days. School has ended for the semester...one more semester to go until graduation! It has been a long road but I still can't believe I am this close to my dream. God is good!! My youngest will be graduating from high school next June. He is a "special" child so I have to prepare him for this big, sometimes cruel, world out out there. This is my baby so this is a very big deal for me. He has no idea how his world is about to change. I have to visit different agencies to see where he would fit in "job-wise". Some places provide transportation, some don't...some are close to home, some are far away...so much to think about...but I know it is time to cut those apron strings. I know if you are a parent you know all about these feelings I have right now. OK...just wanted to say ...319 days ago
Dear Ones, On Tuesday, January 20th history will be made in this country. A Black man will become president of the United States of America. It will be a proud day for me and my family and for millions of people around the world. I have posted a video where President-Elect Obama has taken the time to speak to people about the logistics of visiting our nation's capital on that historic day. Please pray that nothing happens that will cause harm to anyone which would make this momentous occasion a tragic one. I have taken the day off so that I can watch every minute of the festivities in the comfort of my home. I am thankful that my children will be at home as well. Every time I am tempted to get on the train and head to DC on Tuesday I think of those thousands of port-a-potties I saw on the news last week. That is enough of a deterrant for me to stay home! So family...please pray for the world on 1/20 and if you can, try to do something to ...333 days ago
OK Family...it's a New Year...2009 is finally here. The Democrats are in control...our first African American president will be taking his oath of office in a few weeks. Talk about a full plate! This new administration will need our prayers BIG TIME. The first year I'm sure will be a rocky one. My baby boy will be graduating from high school this year...I can hardly believe it but it's true. (BIG SIGH) I was due to graduate myself this year but have decided to slow down a bit. I have a 3.8 GPA and I'm trying to hold on to that. I need 6 more classes...will take two this semester and two next semester. Looks like probably Fall of 2010 which is right around the corner. I received a letter from the school informing me that had been recommended for a semester abroad at Oxford no less...but I would have to come up with a mere $5,000 first . I will just put that letter in my journal and look at it whenever I'm having a bad day. I don't believe in ...364 days ago

We truly have to count our blessings in a world where there is so much suffering. I wish all of you a New Year filled with good health and happiness.

And of course I wish the same for everyone I have come to know thanks to MSN Spaces. Hey Family! Well...MSN Spaces has done it again! WHY OH WHY CAN'T THEY JUST LEAVE THINGS ALONE?? It took me almost 30 minutes to figure out how to ...
