• What is your favorite type of weather?-Writing Prompt

  The weather has different seasons for a purpose. I love each one for their specific features. I love that the 4th of July is in the middle of Summer and I equally love that we celebrate Christ when it’s sometimes freezing with that white stuff some people loathe but I enjoy just not necessarily in…

• Life and the Internet Colliding

  Friday morning I woke up to a laptop that would not load up. I couldn’t talk to my boyfriend which in itself was horrible. Plus he was also having service provider problems himself at the same time. He got his back on yesterday I only got back on within the past hour and it is…

• Who I Am

  Four years later… and her presence and laughter are so missed in our lives. Grandma Rosie is here in the right corner with her younger sisters and the surprise younger brother that her Mom was expecting while she was expecting my Mom, her second child, herself. Then on the opposite corner is my Great-Grandmother Jeannette…

• Emotional Troubles

  The past twenty-four hours have been long and emotionally exhausting. One text message from the man I love sent me into a tizzy. Not to forget that I have been writing articles about my Grandma this week because of the leading up to today. I even made Mom tear up when she read ‘A Remembrance.’…

• A Remembrance

  Today is March 18th, by this time my Mom and Uncle Tony could only call Grandma. My cousin and her daughter tried to visit for a final goodbye, but it was a rainy day. It was frustrating to say the least for our family when they had promised us time with her knowing without Covid…

• Stitchin Crosses

  Lately I have been assuaging a lot of energy into creating some of my own charts. There are times when I have had to get creative and make my own designs. I understand the copyrights for owners of images, but it can be frustrating trying to fully comprehend the ins and outs of the copyright…

• Forgotten Americans… Again

  This photo is so beautiful and shows what a leader looks like. A lion with a lamb is how life was in the Garden of Eden and it’s how life will be in the future. The Lion of Judah comes to mind that name depicting how fierce our God is for us is people. Never…

• March

  Last year at this time was when our family had to start making some difficult decisions. In some ways it feels like 10 years have passed.

• Morning Blues

  My Mom and I had to get up awfully early this morning. My uncle’s MRI was scheduled for 8:30 am. This means we all had to be up early. My alarm clock on my phone went off like clockwork at 6:30 am although things didn’t go quite as expected. After my alarm was silenced I…
