Friends, and family --- Yes, it's been a while! I've got to do better and I will!:) Thanks for being kind enough to send me emails and make phone calls to tell me how I'm slipping on the blog. It's not that I don't think about you all over here. It's the new routine in my life… Music or in simpler words – The Arts, which mentally and physically keeps me busy with promoting, networking, making music, making new connections, going through the bull-crap of people trying to lure you into something you clearly know to stay away from. There are some characters out there in the music industry! I'm so glad I'm a grown azz woman and recognize game. There are too many lame opportunists! How are you going to do something for me when you haven't done something for yourself? Negroes pleeeeeease!
Okay now I shall play catch up: Remember a few blogs back, I told y'all my family was having a moment with life. That's still a reality. But as I said before, we all we got! And love has everything to do with it.
Remember my laptop issue? I had the motherboard replaced and it came back with similar problems that worsened. After several discussions with HP, they had me to reinstall drivers, etc. Just a few nights ago, the screen went blank and non-responsive as it did originally and they walked me through some steps to get it back up. Some hours later, I received an email that they've created a BIOS UPDATE for several HP laptop models. Mine is included. So I've got to send it in again and this update comes with a 24 month warranty.
Okay let's see what else? March 26, 2008 was my last day eating meat! No more animal flesh for me! It's been a long time coming, and for some reason it has been easy to do. Of course we all know the contamination taking place these days with the meat handling process. I've also done lengthy research on what meat does to the body, and this is the ultimate reason I decided to let it go. I have not gotten away from meat products like egg, milk, butter, and cheese. (I'd like to eventually – but I aint that big of a girl just yet! – Baby steps….) As I'm allergic to shellfish, I've been eating mostly salmon and flounder, and lots of vegetables. I love fresh or frozen vegetables, and will also add alternate fish such as snapper, tilapia, etc. If anybody has any tips to pass along -- please I'd love to hear them.
Okay, let's see what else… Oh, I know: Last week, I removed my extended twists braids and cut out the very few nips of perm left and am now 100% nappy. And NAPPY IT IS! What have I done?!:) April will be one year that no chemicals have touched my hair. I am now wearing the natural out and about. Yeah chile, I wore it to the club… to the store…. I've been conditioning it like crazy because I've had that extended hair in for a long time. But being tender-headed and all – I've got issues. Help! I think I'm going to do the two strand twists after I get my hair adjusted to its new doo. Of course I won't leave them in -- I just want that look after you untwist them out. Any other helpful nappy hair-do suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry for the length here folks. But there it is. Thanks for being patient with me.
