Sangin!!

Yay, good times last night. The hotel was BEAUTIFUL, the crowd was great and the band was so loving and welcoming with me. I even got to eat my favorite, chocolate covered strawberries!!! I've been asked to sing again at a funeral, going to squeeze in a nap before though. I posted my audition vid on Facebook, enjoy!

Let's Go Make Some Music!

Just got asked to sit in with a well known band tonight. Since the musical, calls are rolling in. I'm so thankful!! I've always told people to be obedient to God and the gifts he has given us. I'm taking my own advice and giving to others. Going to finish cleaning an then writing out a set list and practicing it with my lil one....yes he sings, plays and acts....runs in our family.

Another Man's Treasurer

Look what we have here! Finally got the chairs I've wanted for our home, hyped!!!

Last Night

Ok y'all got me crying early this morning!!!! I'm still getting texts and inbox messages about my performance last night. Y'all are gonna make me start dreaming big an stuff. Perhaps I should see this acting thing out. I felt like a mini celebrity, I'm still beaming!
I love you all and I I'm so grateful, it is not lost upon me at all. Thanks to Khaleela for writing a killer play, love her.

2:12am

I should be asleep, but I can't help but to bawl my eyes out as I give praise from my bed, under the covers. "Only What You Do For Christ Will Last" is ministering to me right now. Father God you are so faithful!!!!

Come Check Me Out!!!!

So I've been dying to play someone totally out of my character. I've literally been studying a personality type like this for about two years, and now I've been given opportunity. I put it out into the universe and it replied. My friend wrote a brilliant script for her class project and I was offered the role. I'm no longer someone's loving mother or devoted wife, I'm a bitter, scorned ,insecure, narcissistic songstress caught in a love triangle.

I'm mean, rude and even a bit psychotic. It feels good to play a bad girl. Because I wanted to save this character's personality under wraps, I took to Instagram and Facebook...posting what may have looked like a jilted lovers taunts. I had to get out this character's mean or delusional streak out somehow.

Going over lines and allowing the character to totally envelope me was not always an option so if anyone thought I was sad, jilted, mean or scorned via social media....GOOD IT WORKED, NOW COME SEE THE PLAY LOL!

Ladies and Gentleman, as you have never seen me before, I introduce to you, Daisy.

April 25-26th @7pm UDC Blackbox Theatre ,Free, see ya there!!!

This Week Alone...

You thought this week alone was bad, check me out next week.

Crazy

I've used and allowed this in my life. It's a way to throw people off of who you really are and many times keep them away. I call it protecting myself.

Following Your Gut

Ok, I knew my son's school rocked, but today really solidified it. Not only can he display solfe'dge , take spanish, he just signed goodbye to one of his pals.

Meet Me There!!

UDC...Auditorium ...12:30, lifting up our voices in praise. Lord please allow my solo, to minister into someone's life.

Faster Than A...

The weekend was over faster than a New York minute, literally. I love NYC but I'm glad to be home. Shared some good laughs and a couple of attempted cries (can't ruin the make up) on my behalf. I'm glad to be back DC, I missed you.

And yes, I was half way asleep getting my face beat for the GAWD!!! Y'all really didn't think I would leave the hotel looking anything less than fabulous!!! I love L's work, she is amazing and she got me ready for the day. She'll be doing my face for "Got some rhyme , Get some blues"on
the 26th.

Even though I was away, I still can't help but to miss my lil one. I missed my lil love bug tremendously. I'm about to crawl right up next to him and fall asleep. He's going to be surprised when he wakes up. Oh and my home was freakishly tidy when I got back....I love it. I should go away more often lol.

Praise Break!!

Last semester I had a 2.9 GPA, going for 3.0 and higher. Looking at an associate and bachelor in my very near future. Praise break, the sacrifice is well worth it!!!

I've got to thank God, my friends and family.... But most of all my son. I've tried my best to shield him from short finances, nights I stayed up studying, or times I've been sick, his unconditional love in constant and our home permeates that. I pray everything I am teaching him and everything I'm learning rubs off on him.

It ain't been easy...I didn't even factor in the devil...he/she was busy trying to tear me and my family apart...but God said no!!!! I thank him for giving me the foresight to play the game smart, because the demon is far from smart.

At times I feel so tired and burnt out on all ends, but God sustains. After the good news I got today, I have an extra pep in my step and I see graduation in my future.

I Agree

Know Who Values You.

This is for anyone who has ever been devalued by someone. Discernment people.

Because Being Sick Is Not an Option

Probiotic powdered vitamin, flax seed, raspberry yogurt, almond milk, cranberry juice, kale,grapes, strawberries, peaches and pineapple and a hit of honey. The kale is not as bad as I thought it would be. #health #food #alternatives

Sweet

Currently listening and vocally reworking this song. The piano voicing on this is so beautiful.

Stop Stalking Me!!!!

Like really, get a life! Some women can't accept that they were nothing more than a sidepiece. #usedgoods #getalife

My Little Comedian

I swear this little boy. The lil says out loud "Momma we gotta get out of here, that lady's teeth is too scary!!" All I could do is hang my head in shame. And today this...

Resurrection Sunday!!!

Small world!! I made a special visit to my mom's church and she introduced me to the nurse who help deliver me into the world. I had to take a picture with her. She remembered my daddy, where he worked and how quick they had to hurry and deliver me because I was ready to pop pop out. Great treat this Easter Sunday.

Did that just happen???

I just got shushed, did I really just get shushed???? My son just shushed me and sighed annoyingly at me because I was talking to loud during his pretend conversation on his pretend phone. The he proceeds to get frustrated and tell whoever he'd have to call them back, because I wouldn't keep the noise down. Mind you, I had not said a word or uttered a peep to warrant this. #kids

He Has My Heart

Heat!!!

I swear my love interest in the play "Get Some Rhythm, Got Some Blues" gives me fever. He is fine as hell, deep voice...makes me swoon. Come check us out...times TBA April 25-27, 2013
#theater #chemistry #scandal #sex

My Heart

Someone is nestled close, cuddling under Momma because their tummy hurts. He was like "No pictures please" I swear he keeps a smile on my face.

Stepping Closer

Applied for funding to go to summer school. I pray it comes through because it will only set me closer to my goal. This is sure to shift some summer family fun around, but I'll have to make it work. Getting closer to birthing this baby, I'm so burnt out and tired...ready to be done with it.

I need to get Summer camp locked down as well, ugh, so much to do, so little time.

Somewhere In My 20's

Throwback

Giving My All

Thinking of my scene the other night still. I just saw this and thought about my cast mate. She touched my left cheek in disbelief that a tear had fell....then I saw this and I guess that explain it. #channelingfeelings #April25th

“@TheMindBlowing: When a person cries and the first drop of tears comes from the right eye, It's happiness, when it's from the left, It's pain.”

Drained

So my amazing friend, the lovely wrote a play. My character's personality is absolutely wretched, one to be despised. I'm literally drained, in the most good and artistic way....Lord, wait til I get off book!!!

I've been channeling from one particular evil woman. She's insecure, messy and absolutely hopeless. This is so far from who I am and the way I actually live, but recalling ever nasty image of her makes it possible to portray this character.
Im grateful for the challenge and I can't wait for you guys to come see it. #badgirl #witch #mean #evil

Lay It Down

Listening to Troy Sneed. So I'm not going to lie and say my mind has not been racing all day. My MRI is first thing tomorrow morning and I'm praising God already for everything he has and will work out for me. My friend sent me this song, and the words rang true, I'm already starting to feel better.

Wake Me Up At 7am!!!

Every struggle, sacrifice, victory is for my sonshine and our future. Lord, I am truly grateful beyond words I can ever express. It's 4am, got to be back up at 7am to start the day. #success #sacrifice #roadtograduation

I'm Tickled

Reviewing my script, gosh my character is a real witch....I love it. I'm going to use all the twisted, dysfunctional, psychopath tendencies my stalker displayed. I'm going to use all her heartbreak and hatred and channel it into this character. All of her negative ,inhumane , childlike actions will be displayed... I've learned a lot from her these past two years.... I can act like her through art, but I am not her, I'm more. #challenged #badgirl #twistedmind

Have You Dated This Guy?

Ladies have you ever been involved with a guy like this, I know I have? Good riddance to bad dating choices. My girl N'Dambi breaks it down in this song. CantHardlyWait #N'Dambi #badboyfriends

What A Day!!!

2 church services in 1 day. This is "Lord my feet hurt look." Look a little closer in the pic, even the lil one is giving me the side eye.

Shaking off the Crazies

My family and I experiencing the most incredible season of peace. It wasn't easy getting here. The negative distractions and evil intenders kept trying to rock the boat... but they forgot. I ain't no punk and I wasn't going to take the foolishness lying down.

No ill intentions, schizophrenic, inconsistent, unstable children were going to have a say in our happiness. All I had to do was stand up for myself and my family and just wait. Peace... the flow of harmony and serenity overall makes my heart full. Now if we can just shake this flu/bug season, things would be perfect.
