Another Year with a Late Hello!!

Hello, no this isn’t Loinel Richie or Adele!

Happy Year New Everyone

Yeah, I know that I am late with publishing my first piece for the New Year.  In my defense, as soon as I got into 2017 I took off running with so many things to do.  I know I going thru January, I mean I saw the dates, I just could not recognizes them.  Sorry!! 

So I have not made New Year’s Resolutions!! Why??  Because I will break them within two weeks, however, I have set short term goals for this year.  I made a list:

ü  Finish school this year.  This is going to be harder that having a boyfriend.

ü  Create a new network of friends here is Dallas.  That would be easier than having a boyfriend.

ü  Find that company with that good paying position.  That would be better than having a boyfriend.

ü  Though for the past 3 years I have been saying that I am going to buy a car! I really need to do that this year, because this to would also be better that having a boyfriend. 

ü  Last year I think I travel twice.  This year I have decided to get away for 3-day weekends once a month somewhere is the different states.  Depending on where I am going, I might need to bring batteries because boyfriend cannot be included.

Though, the thought of taming the current Alpha male is both intriguing and boring, that I am keeping him a secret from the family, which brings a very big smile on my face every time I talk to him.  So when I told Auntie Do that I going away for a romantic gateway next month, she asked with whom?  I told her my pimp in training!  I think that is how I would like to spend this year, training my latest pimp
.
Torturing my mother more often is also include on my list of things to do.  Having that communication with my mother is the same as a drop signal regardless of what phone I used. 
I joined this organization called Dallas International to get out and see the city more.  We can contribute this to this none existing street smarts that I currently don’t have.
And before I forget, I need to get my storage down here because this girl here misses her dictionaries.  

Though I am still in that “What happen in 2016?” stage, I know what happen I just can’t believe some of the stupidity that took place in 2016.  My heart is crying for all those whom we have lost in 2016 and I am not just talking about celebrities like George Michaels and Prince, but all those who were homicide victims, those who died in terrorism acts, and those who died in natural cause of all sorts.   I think that 2016 was a heart breaking year of many of us.

So now we are in February, it is National Black History Month and Valentine’s Day coming.  It still amazes me that every year I, should I say we, get to learn new interesting facts about other African Americans who have also tribute to our society in one fashion or another.  At the same time, thisis one of those times where I like the fact that social media is spreading Black Month thru all means for everyone including those who are to the U.S.A. know the history.


I can only hope that for the rest of 2017 we all have a happy progressive year, in whatever areas that we need help in, get that help from those of us who understand what humanities are and from the Lord himself!

Breaking the Cycle!

As a parent we always want the best for our child(ren)., and we start with educating them on things that we think that would be best for them to know as they grow up.  I was still a teenager when I became pregnant with my only child, Nicolas.  Did I wanted a child at that time?  No I didn't and it was my mother who said to keep him and that she would help me raise him.  My mother was also a teenage parent starting with me and a year later came my one of two brothers.  Now you are probably thinking that my mother why didn't she teach me not to become a teenage parent?   I am assuming that and I was right, that she did not know how.  She wanted to do my best with my life but she did not know to explain to me how to go about living life.  Growing up with 3 younger siblings I saw the struggles that my mother went through, and in my head I knew that I was not willing to do some of things that she.  I knew in my head that if I was ...

Coming this Month in September!

Lord have mercy, we are in another month for the year 2015.  If some of y'all like me and you saying this year is flying by . . .for some of us this a good while for others it may not. For a lot of parents this is a good thing because it is the start of another school for their children who are going back to school or have already started school.  Who is doing the dance of joy on this one?  If you don't have little ones still at home, this means peace and quiet for you at home until 3 p.m. For other parents it means fewer less children. ( Geçmiş olsun!)  But it also brings all the after school programs, those parent-teacher conferences that many parents dread, and those Fridays' night games. For all you new college students, for the first month you will be stupid to things but after that you will be okay.  For all you second year students who did not learn anything in your first year, then consider yourself still stupid!  For you third ye...

The Istanbul Chronicles: Moving Stuff

Here is another one of Glenna and I adventures. When Glenna and I were getting to know each other, I knew that she lived in an area call Maltepe. To be actual she lived on Methap Sok., Mercan #7  Apt. 4, Adatepe.   It was quite some ways from me being 45 minutes by a mini-bus (I live those things).  I had often visited her at her at her apartment as she had often visited our apartment, especially for coffee. In Glenna's apartment, she had a lot of nice big real wood furniture that I would have loved to own and I am still mad to this day that we were not able to remove majority them away from Edward. While she was there in their apartment, Glenna by herself was trying to move those pieces around because of how big furniture was they were not moving for her. (Glenna is a tiny woman, I tell you.) She said she had been asking Edward to get some help in moving some of the furniture down stair into the storage assigned storage unit.  But talking to Edward was like ta...
