Go Ahead And Open Pandora's Box

By -

Isn’t it nice to meet someone that you instantly connect with? Someone that you have so much in common with that you feel you’ve known them all of your life? It’s truly a blessing when you find someone special like that who embraces you with love and support right from the start.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting such a person. We talk on the phone almost every day. We laugh, giggle about silly stuff, it just feels good being a girlie girl with her. She’s been there for me during this time of transition and I’ve really appreciated her support and encouragement. She’s the kind of person you’d want by your side anytime.

The special lady that I'm talking about is Donna, aka Queen Pandora!! If you like Gumbo (and even if you don't) she's cooking up a mean pot of some good ‘ole gumbo and has plenty to offer. She’s just begun this journey of blogging and is so excited about it, shouldn’t she be? What better way for a person to express who they are and what they love by writing about it and sharing it for the world to see. Donna has got a heart so big for her hometown, New Orleans and she wants to share that with us. She’s also fierce when it comes to using her words as she so intricately puts them together in her poetry. She’ll have you hanging off her every word and leaving you wanting for more.

Now it’s time for you to go and pay the Queen a visit. Give her a big, warm welcome from the bottom of the blogosphere. You know, the kind of welcome you would have loved to receive when you first began your journey. Stay awhile and read, comment and send your love, I’m sure she’ll love to hear from you.

    I know exactly what you're sayin' here!

    From my "NO Television" post:

    "Do you have those friends that when you talk with them on the phone it’s like having them over for tea [or insert your favorite beverage]?"

My Monday Morning Started At 11:00PM...Last Night!

We had to take little j. to the Doctor this morning because last night he didn't sleep good and neither did we. He kept crying and crying and wouldn't stop. We were completely thrown because he had such a good day. Could it be: 1. He's teething and it's bothering him? Yes, but a little baby Orajel and infants Tylenol should have done the trick. It didn't. 2. I ate something that didn't agree with him? Of course we couldn't come up with anything. 3. He was just so tired from everything we did yesterday and it was hard for him to fall asleep? Maybe. 4. He got bit by a bug and we didn't know? We checked all over, no bites. We even checked to see if there was a piece of hair wrapped around his little fingers and toes. None! 5. Because he's teething he could have an ear infection? Yes very possible but he didn't show the usual signs: fever, pulling at his ears (that looked like it was out of the norm for him because it's something he does often...

Inspired To Write...

The other day a friend of mine asked me, where have you been? She then proceeded to say, it's like you fell off the face of the earth. I laughed and said, "no, I've actually fallen onto the face of the earth". Girl, thanks for that little laugh, I appreciated the moment :) I've fallen onto the face of the earth and bumped right into my family, friends (old and new), business partners, business meetings, social gatherings, moms meetings, and so many activities for the kids, life has been busy. My natural journey has opened so many doors, talk about beautiful women. Sistah's who have inspired me to keep going and stay focused on the end result rather than the transitioning stage. These days I mostly wear my hair in a ponytail-bun. I don't have time to get all fancy, but when I can I'll do a two-strand twist style and use my latest product discovery, Oyin Handmade . They are very reasonable and the products smell so good. If it's one thing I...
