Meanwhile...

Spiderman dreams and I haven't killed this fish yet.

People Make Mistakes

I'm Just The Messenger

No matter how many times you tape my picture to the mirror, when it's removed, it's your ugliness that's still shown.

Guttin The Fish

No, low class women. Women get tossed aside, even after being heavily warned, women the enable and cripple would be men, women who act dignified but are really ratchet, women who trick men with money and sex, women with low self-esteem, women
who pay to stay, women who were abused, orphaned, drug addicted,raped,molested,protested,insecure,women who have no spiritual compass, women who are manipulate men,mentally unstable but socially undetectable. These are some of the labels my partner has used to describe her. The picture has become clearer now into her madness.

Mornin Funnies

My View...

The other night, this was my view. One rehearsal, yet the sound was close to perfection. So very honored to be a part of such musical excellence. #Blessed #BiscuitNose

Honor Roll

Even with everything and occasional challenges, I still say Lord I thank you. My baby made Honor Roll AGAIN!!!!
My fervent prayers and determination to get my amazing child to where he is, is paying off. Invest in your children people!! Be loving, kind and patient and prayerful with them.

He is really thriving and my heart is overflowing with love, and gratitude to God for it. It's a nonstop 365-24 hour grind. Be determined for your children to grow. DO YOUR RESEARCH!!! Kiss them every chance you get. My child's possibilities are endless!

Taking Flight

I'm just holding on and enduring. It's what sacrifice is made of. I keep dreaming of the day when time and distance and severance is my peace. I see it clear as day. Pacing myself toward it. You'll look up and we'll be gone. We will be the stuff mysteries are made of. Investigators and folk alike will be left scratching their heads, baffled at how we just disappeared into thin air.

Protect Me Lord

#Random #Thoughts #PrayingSpirit
I am scared.

Family

I'm so overwhelmed with emotions right now. Good emotions and happiness about the unity of our family. It's so beautiful to see a man take charge and set the course for his family and be excited about it. Father I ask no hurt, harm and danger come to my family. Today I am overly emotional, and thankful for my life being spared. I won't be doing the judging or deciding, and whatever befalls the devil will be just.

Father slay, impede, deter and demolish the devil's plans to pull us apart. Father we all know that was and is the plan all along. Thank you for placing angels all around us. Let no man or beast put us under.

Pressing Charges

This girl is really sick.Threatening and attempting murder on a woman and her unborn child will be punishable by Life and or the Death Penalty. #AttemptedDoubleHomicide

Musicians!!!

Thanks for the responses to my Tweet and post. I will send out an invitation soon. Please be prepared to play on the spot, knowing me does not and will not secure you the position. #Music

Finally!

Tree is up, thanks guys lol, Momma can rest now. #I'mAPrincess #Christmas #Family

Die Already Why Don't You.

I've never made any bones about my disgust for her. My eyes, ears and brain is literally bleeding. I feel sorry for the folks that don't recognize the waste of it all. #Tortured #DieAlready

Bee sting, I'm hungry again. #Grumpy

Paranoid Bitch!!!

Tension!!! I love it!! That bitch is paranoid!!!


This is a nail biter ! #Unfold

Oh Lord

You and your fake ass , no existent relationship, kill yourself NOW!

Take Off!!

Travel has been officially squared away. We've never spent Christmas away, so I'm extra excited. Who knows, may try to extend our stay past New Years!
#Hyped #ExtraBlessings

I Love It

When people inconvenience you it can turn into a huge blessing. I win, you lose!

Thanks

Nausea

Now that it seems to be easing up, I want to eat everything

Me Want Sushi!!!!

Why am I still hungry? Can't have sushi, but I so want it.

Evolution and Darwin

Glued to the HISTORY CHANNEL!!

A Man That Cooks

I got him trained well, dinner is served!!

This Fool Right Here------>

You're a saggy sack of moldy beans!!!!!! LMBO Posting her pic in 5,4,3,2...

Yes There Is A Gawd!!!

Candy/Sweets craving solved. I normally don't eat them, but when a craving kicks in ya gotta sometimes give.

I Don't

I don't insult people, I describe them lol!!!!

Geesh

Because some people leave a relationship shitty and mucked up, much like their hidden personalities. They don't know how to just bow out gracefully. Get some class, even if your folks didn't teach you how to have any.

You see the what and how much respect and value a person holds for the EX by their behavior when it's over.

You can't eva say I did the following...
Check my Facebook for the list.

Mental Health, The Media

And the big fat fucking Red Herring and diversion. For you dig bats who don't have a clue. # SandHook

Cravings

UGH....must have cake and tacos!!!

OMG....

OMG The designer herself emailed me!!!! I wanted my dress before NYE, but I'll be patient and wait for perfection. I'm so shocked she emailed me. Yay!

For The Sick and Shut In

Singing Christmas songs for a local Hospice. I'm excited and happy to do this especially. I sang to my Grandmother before she passed away, that was her last request of me. I gladly give away this gift.

Chil Please!!!

If it's nothing more that I hate is when someone (strangers my people know) presses me out for something (styling,makeup,editing,music,directing)creative. No money in hand, but want a handout. There was a time I gave away my gifts, which I still do wisely, but some folks will try you if you let them.

If I get another phone call from you about this, you will get the bizness. Stop trying to pimp me out!!!

That's Me!

People who stay awake till late night are more intelligent than the people who go to bed early and rise early for the day, study suggests!”

#Violence

Children should be off limits PERIOD.

Twitter and Facebook Floods

It's totally understandable.

I LOVE THIS GAME

Telling Them How You Feel

If you've told someone you love them, proud of them, you're happy for them, you're glad they're in you're life, you want the to succeed no matter the starting, you think they are beautiful,like them, you don't judge them ect, good for you, you've impacted someones life.

If you've put someone down, called them fat, ugly, you hate them, they're worthless, desperate, you wish they were dead, you dislike them, you hope they fail, you can't stand their guts, good for you too. You may be a totally loser with coal for a soul, but at least they and God knows how you really feel.

God Be A Healing

There is not a moment that goes by that I don't take the time out to thank God for allowing the wonderful gift that is my child to enter into my life. I can't and don't want to imagine life without him, so I can imagine the agony our fellow brothers and sisters in Conn. are feeling. My heart is broken to hear of such a tragedy, they are in my prayers.

Relationships

And so now that we are on this ride again, I can't help but to feel more love, and more hopeful.

Crazy Witch

You're not sorry you did it. You're sorry we found out.

Philly For A Night

Had my first Philly CheeseSteak on this night and took in an amazing show. All in 24 hours DC-PA-DC, my girl and I know how to roll. Never mind we both left work and school, dropped our babies off, rolled up to Philly, rocked out, grabbed a bite, then came right back home and fell right back into our daily grind. When juggling school, work, kids, you have to make time to play. Next up Kenny Chesney!!!

When Being Kicked to the Curb

When being kicked to the curb, do it with class, if not it only ruins your chances for a call back.Sometimes when you're given the cue to exit stage right, take it, and leave with dignity.

Nothing worse than a sad loser, SMH!

Hair and Face!!!!!!

Feeling uber sexy!!!!

It's Always A Pleasure

If you have ever been a guest in my home, you are a witness to a ton of love, and an enormous amount of play and laughter and if you're lucky a warm meal.

It's my pleasure and a blessing me to be able to create a space where people feel like they want to laugh, cry, spill their guts and raid the kitchen, after which they want to sleep in my bed lol.

My house and heart is a home full of love. It's always a pleasure.

It's Not In Vain!

Sometimes it looks darkest before the dawn, hold on!!!!

I tell myself that when I get physically, emotionally and mentally tired. I thank God for keeping me through peaks and valleys. The sacrifices that sometimes seems to have me doubt if I should keep going, when I'm cutting it close. God you are able, you never fail!

Shout out to all my crew and people who are working full time, part time, pursuing their undergrad, are in grad school, juggling kids, elderly parents, disabled loved ones...shoot, who are just trying to obtain a lil peace of the dream. I feel ya, I salute you, and I'm proud of you and myself.

Give God some praise, tell yourself you can do it, and conquer your goals each day. It doesn't matter how long or when you start...you'll be closer each day.

Zorey, *tears* kudos to you!! See ya at the finish line!!!!!!!!

Justice

This bully did not get enough time if you ask me.

"Slam!" We Got This!

My students did an AMAZING job tonight, I'm so proud of them. Teaching children to not judge, especially based on weight, height,race,religion, only fosters healthy minded potential adults.

I was so honored to be able to teach them that shallow, empty, hurt and insecure people behave that way. Their performance not only moved the crowd, it moved them. I'm a proud Mama Bear tonight.

Watching them execute their song through the Nimbaya track was sooooo exciting. Then we took it "Old School" and hit them with "Hey DJ, Steppers Delite" and topped it off with Jazz extrodaner Monk. Getting them to use music in a positive uplifting way, only forces the universe to respond in some sort of way....we always pray it's positive.

One of my students had been picked on because of their weight, and her verse in our song moved me to tears. I had to tell them that bullies come in all shapes and sizes, they look just like you and I. Show me someone who's perfect in every way and I'll take it up with my God. To all my parents, teachers, and mentors, please remind our children that no matter your station in life, you are no better than your brother or sister. Don't be so arrogant and pious with your gifts that you forget to reach back and lend a hand. You have it you to either encourage someone to fail or succeed, what will you be accountable for when it comes to your fellow man?

I'm gonna miss my students, but I'm also looking forward to working with the younger babies next year. Did I mention tonight was AMAZING!

Oh shout out to DJ BR, you had that whole audience of kids singing that crazy pop song tonight. Now it's stuck in my head....."Hey I just met you, and this crazy, well here's my number, so call me baby! I hate you for that lol....jokes, one <3

I was trying to study and watch him at the same time. I'll try to make myself go to sleep in a few, but you know how it is when your kids are sick.

Direction

Its better late than never. I'll continue to push and sacrifice for the betterment of my child and myself. No matter what hurdles the devil tries to throw our way. My eyelids are heavy, my body is tired, but my heart is strong and my faith is steadfast. God I thank you!!! I laid hands on myself and prayed for a healing. The physical pain this week that afflicted me, plugged me right in with my God. Every time I took a step, the pain shook my body, and each time I called on the name of Jesus. The pain is dull and fading,

Satan you have no choice but to flee. Now you want to attack my child, too bad I laid hands on him too, and he's healed in the name of My Father.

As I sit here I'll watch, pray and work on my Midterm. Keep pressing folks, let's go!

My Little Dumpling

I swear when my little one is sick, I'm a wreck. He only complains about wanting more toys, and overall he's a joy, so when he's ill I don't sleep. I watch over him like a hawk normally, but when he's crying in pain, every sound and move is logged in my head and heart.

In the ER,praying for a speedy recovery.

Word On The Street

This could be a repeat of Bush's shady second term.

Progress is Progress

Amen! Don't let folks judge when and where or how you start....at least you started. Keep pushing and block the nay sayers out. They make God's ears bleed and heart break.

Family

I don't know what I would do without my family. I can't imagine having to be raised by anyone else other than my Mom. I can't imagine bringing adopted or growing up in foster care. Having sisters and brothers I don't know about. I can't imagine it and grateful I have what I have. Good bad and indifferent, it's a gang load of us spanning the globe.

Spanish, Chinese, Caucasian, African American, Afro Guyanese, you name it....I love our family get togethers all under a Caribbean umbrella. I see our ancestors in the faces or our elders and us the offspring.

I was asked the other day what race/ethnicity did I identify with the most and my answer was Carribean...but I'm still plugged into all the others as well .I give thanks today for my family....for having family. Amen

Romnesia

Looks like this fool and his party will do anything to get into the Whitehouse. Taggart, you are way out of line.

Have Some Pride

Why did she think sex and money in exchange for housing would ever work? Ladies stop dumbing down and whoring yourselves out. Only Hugh Hefner can get away with that.

Selections

So the little one is off today, so I took a much needed day myself. Still a ton of things to do, so to keep things light we'll sooth our souls with music throughout the house.
My music selection for the day is Gershwin. What an amazing artist, composer, goodness!!!! I might throw in some Ragtime later.

You Go Girl!!!

Breaking traditions and stereotypes!

Drive

As an artist I've been blessed to have worked with some incredibly talented people. I've been the starving artist, worked two jobs, commuted every week to NY for gigs and auditions, slept on the train and bus only to still make it to work on time...tired but on time.

I remember being incredibly home sick while in tour. I called home everyday...even though I was grown. I've been broke, that starving artist. Risking sleep and savings, I've done it.Coming into dynamic settings and having to prove myself because I was the new girl. The pain of losing a German tour because my nerves got the best of me. It's funny how things come full circle and I totally prefer to sing in German verses Latin when taking vocal tech.

My God I am thankful!!!! Ever open, growing, and nurturing my craft, next stop Gospel Improv. It will be an interesting venture but oh so necessary. My fellow artist, don't be afraid to push yourself, you'll be surprised what you're capable of. Whatever your creative calling, nurture it to it's fullest potential. Don't let anyone defer you from your dreams.

Parents, Blessed To Have Them!!

I think just ministered to my own mother. God please continue to use me. Give me the right words to say. My mother and I are incredibly tight, and I feel our relationship has reached a brand new level. Like any mother and daughter we've had our ups and downs but we are best friends.

I'm so honored that she chooses me as her confidant and friend. I would do anything for her and she would do anything for me....now let me call my Daddy and bug him lol.

Sometimes

Sometimes some people have to feed themselves and others the same lie until they and others believe it. It's pathetic is what it is. Its what they need to sleep at night, it's what they need to justify their Un-Christian like behavior, it's what they need to feel better about themselves. They know they are failing miserably as a Christian and as a human being. I hope they can look in the mirror or have that come to Jesus moment where they can face the truth. It will hurt, it won't be pretty, it will sting, but at least it will be the truth. It's going to happen for them, God I know you can do it.

Financial Responsibility

So I'll be going over my 401k, and other investments over the weekend. I got see what my dollars are doing.

Parents, have you set up a College Fund, a Savings, a CD anything for your kids!!! If not get on the ball, it's necessary for their future! If you can buy clothes, go on trips, buy toys, you can invest in their future! What are you waiting for, their last year of High school? I pray not, let's go get it folks.

I'm Doing Something Right

Yes!!!!!! Ain't God good!! Ain't it great when people think of you first. I just got a great side gig offer preparing children for an entertainment event. I remember being young and having mentors who encouraged my creativity.

As a young artist, it is so important to have a safe environment to foster your craft. I'm going for it...who knows it could turn into a regular gig. Anything is possible!!!

I will send out a " Save the Date" for November's "Got Talent" event that I will be co-judging. I think it's going to hilarious. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be Sharon or Paula, heck even Simone. I never keep up with those shows. Do we sit through the bad contestant auditions??
I'm going to be serious.......I'm cracking up at myself as I type this.

Don't Try Me!

I'm sorry I can't, I won't so I don't! I love the kids and all but if they are under the age of 16, I will not accept a Facebook or Twitter request. I know they look at me as Auntie Jackie, but I'd much rather they be doing homework than putting things up that their parents or I would scold them for. Yes I will scold you on your "Wall" if I see ANYTHING that is not kosher and you bet not dare say but Aunt Jackie. You know better!

Merlot Juice

Bourgeoise, a food snob, fancy or Hautey Tautey call me what you will, I like what I like.

Do You Judge Much???

This was a great topic brought up last meeting. I think on some level we all judge. We are human so sometimes we do things like this. But think about it, what are you judging really? Is your desperate attempt to make yourself seem higher than your brother? People who judge feel insecure and inferior. They project that on others in hopes of trying to crush your spirit. Always remember those actions are not of God, and trust and believe he is not pleased. Their actions are not those of someone who strives to please God, but of someone who has allowed jealousy and hatred stir their ship.


Now when I call folks crazy, I'm not judging them, I'm stating a fact. If I judged them, I would attack trivial things....crazy is not trivial, it's real and it is what it is. Now for my sane happy, well adjusted folks...when people judge you, remember that they want what you have and hate that you got it!
If I'm stern on you in our meetings it's because I love and care about you and I want you to get it. I want more for you than they want for you, keep pushing!!!
It's a sickness, pray for their healing.

Life 2013

Te doy las gracias

Gracias Jesús por todo lo visto y lo oculto. Más información acerca de usted y menos sobre I. Usted simplemente eres Señor. Sanar mi cuerpo, Señor, que mañana mejor que hoy. En el dolor.
Mi corazón belings a sólo usted.

Brutal

Today/Night did a number on my little one and myself. Sometimes trying to balance it all can be brutal. My boss called me into her office to ask if I could stay and continue to work on our annual audit, I politely smiles and said I'd need to make a phone call. Thank God for Grandmothers. The little one was not happy at all, and complained that I can't come home in the dark time anymore as he would like to put it.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel,I have ultimate faith that God will give me strength to keep pushing. Talk about pooped. Grind begins again 6am sharp! Let's get it folks!

Night Music

Shedding at 1am, let me adjust the volume. It's all for the love of the craft.

Mortal Combat: Finish Him!

Mitt wakes up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat. He hears voices, he's terrified, they are coming for him...who are they...the 47% that's who.

Mid Day Jazz

I love my job. I love when the elder Jazz cats look for me to sing. I promise a couple selections before December.
