Happy Obama Day to the world!

HAPPY OBAMA DAY!!





I'm here in Nova Scotia (the day after) sipping a cup of green tea, all warm and toasty while the snow is falling outside covering the ground like a huge blanket. Yesterday millions (People of ALL races, color and backgrounds) gather in DC to witness history in the making.




I feel truly blessed to be alive for such a time as this. I was supposed to have posted yesterday but I was glued to the TV screen tearing down as I watched live, the historic moment when a man of color took the oath to the highest office in the nation. PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA...PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!



It was AMAZING!!!!! AMAZING, people!!!! I feel like for the first time in a long time, America was united together for a cause.




Let's just lift the first family up in prayers and wish them good health, prosperity and success! There's so much to be done..... God is truly faithful! Now...to the work, to the work, servants of the people. Do good on behalf of your country and the world! Whew! said a lot, didn't I? Excited! God bless America!





Peace and blessings to the World!

Family

Would you believe it? I'm back again! lol. I had such a great time yesterday with my family. Well, I had to work on Christmas day as usual, but afterwards...I got all dressed up for our traditional family dinner at my mom's house. Let me tell you, that I come from a very large family. My mom had 11 children.....minus one, Sharon - my younger sister is deceased (RIP Sharon) I am #3!

So, picture this: All of us and our children (minus my 3) and some of their children and a few family friends, at a meet-up! We had prayers, exchanging of gifts, hugs and laughter, games, story telling...man, this was off the chain! The food was great and so was the company. My brothers took care of the music and games and the girls controlled everything else... you see, there are more of us than there are of them (heheheheheee). Seven girls! Not counting the grands and great grands- mostly females.

The menu consisted of Peas & Rice (yum), baked ham & Turkey with all the trimmings, coleslaw, macaroni & cheese (bahamian style), potato salad, crab salad, garden salad, fried plantains. We had cheese cakes, fruit cakes, pumpkin pie, potato bread, benny cakes and peanut cakes and drinks galore - alcoholic and non. I ate light....see, I'm a tote-rr (had my bag packed to go) lol. Don't drink soda pops, don't do alcohol.....so I made good with some good ole home made lemonade. lolol....party pooper, dey call me!

We had a grand time, even though I was missing my children (two girls in Canada and my son in Ft. Lauderdale).... We were together in spirit. God bless my babies so far away. Almost forgot my nephew (vince Jr.) who celebrated a birthday on Christmas day! Happy birthday, sweetie.... luv u, pucca..... By the way, my family is awesome, Luv u guys!!

I'll post some pics. later, I won't be in it ....I was the photographer! remember, my newest best friend? My Fugifilm digital, 8.2 MP camera? Aha!

Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas to all you fellow bloggers! I am so excited, Christmas is my favorite time of the year. Well, Christmastime is here... What a joy it is to celebrate Jesus' birth and the blessings of his love!

I love this winter weather, although we don't have much of a winter here in Nassau. It's cooler, especially at night. I am grateful for the opportunity to be alive and well, I would like to say that I wish you all God's richest blessings, peace, joy and much love throught the holidays and in the New year.

Can't leave without saying how grateful I am to God for opening my eyes to see and appreciate my natural attributes, I am so in love with my sisterlocks...it gives me a deeper appreciation for my health and well-being. I am so much more confident, I feel stronger, I walk a little prouder,I stand a lot taller and I move with grace and pride. Total new attitude. I believe in myself, respect my own opinions and welcome new challenges!....... that, becomes the queen that I am. I AM.....!!!!

Peace, blessings and fabulous locks!

Fitness

Hi guys:

I haven't posted in a while, been pretty busy at work and my sisterlocks businesss is growing so! It's been wonderful being a part of other people's transformation from relaxed hair to beautiful heads of gorgeous locks.



I'm getting back to my fitness routine after being off and on for a long time. Been kidding myself that I can do it alone....not working, the pounds are creeping back on. I rejoined weight watchers, when I walked thru that door...felt right at home again. Lost 3 lbs. the first week (kinda disappointed cuz i wanted to lose at least 5 lbs) but I'm ok with that. I'm telling myself 'easy does it girl' I know that I can do it again. I'd lost 78lbs on the plan before and kept it off successfully for 5 years. I feel the need to shed about 30 lbs this time, can't wait to get back to my goal weight. Wish me luck, yall.



My hair - on the other hand is looking fabulous! I've taken lots of pics all by myself ( I need a photographer, ppl) Missing my daughters so much....not much fun without them but I got my newest best friend.......my FujiFilm 8.2 Megapixels digital camera! Got ya! HAHAHA...



Till next time, Stay natural, stay beautiful and .......Stay tuned for the new pics!

He is the love of my life...He is GOD!

He is the first and last, the beginning and end!
He is the keeper of creation and the creator of all!
He is the architect of the universe and the manager of all times,
He was, always is, and always will be... unmoved, unchanged,undefeated, and never undone!

He was bruised and brought healing!
He was pierced and eased pain!
He was persecuted and brought freedom!
He was dead and brought life!
He is risen and brings power!
He reigns and brings peace!

The world can't understand him, the leaders can't ignore him.
Herod couldn't kill him, the pharisees couldn't confuse him, and the people couldn't hold him!
Nero couldn't crush him, Hitler couldn't silence Him, the new age can't replace Him,
and 'Oprah' can't explain Him away!

He is light, longevity, and Lord.
He is goodness, kindness, gentleness, and God.
He is holy, righteous, mighty, powerful, and pure.

His ways are right, his word is eternal.
His will is unchanging, and his mind is on ME.
He is my Savior, He is my guide and he is my peace!
He is my joy, He is my comfort, He is my Lord, and He rules my life!

I serve him because his bond is Love, his burden is light and his goal for me is abundant life.
I follow him because he is the wisdom of the wise, the power of the powerful, the ancient of days,
the ruler of rulers, the leader of leaders, the overseer of the overcomers, and is to come.
And if that seems impressive to you, try this for size.......
His goal is a relationship with ME!
He will never leave me, never forsake me, never mislead me, never overlook me and never
cancel my appointment in his appointment book!

When I fall, he lifts me up!
When I fail, he forgives me!
When I am weak, he is strong!
When I am lost, he is the way!
When I'm afraid, he is my courage!
When I stumble, he steadies me!
When I am hurt, he heals me!
When I am broken, he mends me!
When I am blind, he leads me!
When I am hungry, he feeds me!
When I face trials, he is with me!
When I face persecutions, he shields me!
When I face problems, he comforts me!
When I face loss, he provides for me!
When I face death, he carries me Home!

He is everything for everybody everywhere, everytime and every way.
He is GOD, he is faithful. I am his and he is mine!
My Father in heaven can whip the father of this world. So, if you're wondering why I feel
so secure, understand this.... He said it and that settles it. God is in control, I am on his side, and that means all is well with my soul. Everyday is a blessing for GOD IS!
I love the Lord with all my heart, soul, mind and body and nothing can separate me from the love of God.
Guess what? I Love YOU too.........

A Hair Affair

I'm always doing something different with my hair. Styling options are limitless, although I love freestyling....sometimes I do the curly or crinkly look (my favorites) 'for no fuss'.
