Blogging

I haven't shared in a while and thought maybe it was time. This blog site is not only meant for venting but sharing as well.

Last semester went well and still on my way to a Fall graduation.
It has been an extremely HOT summer. This Kansas humidity is no joke. I haven't been out much, heat is NOT my thing.

Was in ATL during June meeting my step dad family. Met some awesome cousins my age, oh the joys! A friend from elementary school met me in Atlanta, we had a decent time. I enjoyed what I seen of Atlanta, definitely would like to go back. Had a revelation during the week as I was getting to know my friend again. Her hair was so long and pretty and I had been trying to let mine grow over the last few months. She said she gets her hair pressed and do not get a relaxer anymore. I thought Eureka! That's what I can do. So I thought it out in my mind how I would attempt to break the news to my beautician...the whole "going natural" is not a new phenom for me. LOL. Then after thinking some more and talking with my mom I realized this Kansas humidity would fry my head and I would have the Afro back in style because the pressing would not last! Also there aren't places around town that do press and curl. It's all about the chemicals. Oh Kansas.

I am taking one summer class, Applied Cal again. It is going a lot better this time around. The previous attempts and getting tutoring did help I just was not applying myself during the week.

Update: I hate Algebra!! Calculus is a breeze...........

Been on the job almost two years, had some up and down moments but overall I can not complain. For in this terrible economy and in the mist of layoffs I have a job with medical and dental benefits. Speaking of benefits I read Steve Harvey's book right around March when he stepped into my life. The book did me good, for once I got to know someone without giving myself to them. I was already on the path of removing that part of me but the reading and the openness made it that much better. Incredible is still how I would like to describe him. He likes it!
At this junction, I would like to take back my view on the male species.

Been upgrading many parts of my life and still on an upward climb, removing the old and making room for the new. I am continuing to create possibilities and be encouraging to others. Realized I have some awesome friends who love me and are much concerned for my happiness. God has smiled on me, he has set me FREE. And I am eternally grateful!
