Rescheduled to Feb 18th due to Mo' Snow
Say what? Yes. Mo’ Snow. Supposed to start tomorrow evening and continue all day Wednesday! up to 20 more inches? Truly the ground hog must have kissed a snow bunny after he saw his shadow. Say what?
So our… A Thin Line Between Love and Hate: Domestic Violence Awareness Experience & Workshop has been rescheduled from Thursday, Feb. 11th to the following Thursday, February 18, 2010. Same place, same time, mo’ better interactive experience. Part II also includes hearing from a survivor less heard from–a man abused by a woman.
Ministry of Hope’s coordinator, Queen Afi Gaston, my co-facilitator Evangelist Keisha Hooks, and myself encourage you not to miss this free event! Of course, donations will not be refused. Say what?
See you, Thursday, February 18th, 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm at Johnson Memorial Baptist Church Multi-Purpose Room, 746 Ridge Rd. SE, Washington, DC.

It’s time to get excited! October is going to rock for those who love God & want not only hearers; but doers of His Word!
If we do and stop questioning, bargaining and procrastinating, by month’s end; it’s going to blow our minds how God has uses it ALL to bring about marvelous things that the eye has not seen and the ear has not heard. A new thing!!!! with a breakthrough on top!
October 31st, a/k/a Holloween will be for testimonies only!!!
That’s life in The WOW Zone.
Hello Chosen Ones,
After trying a new kidney, lung, and and triple bipass heart surgery, it’s now official. My soon-t0-be-ex Volvo is in dire need of a engine valve replacement. As of noon yesterday EST, I had to pull the plug BEFORE I could get it in to a dealer trade-in lot. Consider it DOuA a/k/a Dead on UnArrival.
A moment of silence, please, as I mop up my tears and lay hands on my half-full wallet.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things, I can not change; the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. Amen.
Back to the earthly realm, shouldn’t I be able to sell my 1999 Volvo for parts and get enuf $$$$ to buy a used car and still not have a car note? I got a kick out of not having a car note; which is why I didn’t go for the now extinct Cash For Clunkers program. Anybody got a clue as to what a sistah can do? Keep in mind I’m recently laid off. Say what? That’s a big fat “yepper.”

Jaws Theme Song.
Some days my life feels like a Jaws movie. Just when i think it’s safe to go back in the water. (sound effects) du dum, du dum, du dum. SCREAM
Two days been waiting for a auto part that was sent to the wrong address. Told UPS don’t worry about rerouting to my address for delivery on Monday (are you kidding me) when I paid for and needed the part on 2 days ago. Send straight back to sender; who made the mistake anyway. I’ll get a refund and take the headache as a hit. I ordered same part, locally this time, and friend took me to pick it up. Mechanic will start working on my car in the morning–no problem. Moving on.
Woke up this a.m. to the tinkering sound of DC Parking Enforcement booting my car. Say what?
I hollered daintily from bedroom window, “what cha doing to my car?” In unison they replied, “Bootin’ yo car for non payment of tickets.”
I didn’t even know I had tix. Plus, it’s Saturday, I can’t get the boot off till Monday? (sound effects) du dum, du dum, du dum. SCREAM. I’m gonna need a bigger boat AND mo’ money!!!!!
I won’t be fooled though. This is a spiritual battle for my peace and sanity. Still I refuse to let it steal my joy. We gonna do what we can and leave the rest alone in God’s hands. We may be pressed; but we are not crussed. Greater is He that is in me that he that is in the world. One can’t fight a spiritual battle with earthly weapons.
In this battle, my part is to don the whole gear of God. The breastplate of righteousness–CHECK, the shield of faith–CHECK, shoes with the readiness to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ–CHECK, the helmet of salvation a/k/a being made right with God–CHECK, the belt of Truth tied tightly around my waist–tight 4 real–CHECK, and the magnificent Sword of the Spirit, a/k/a the WORD of God–CHECK.*
Onward!!! Pray continually and be alert. Victory is assured. Jaws ALWAYS dies at the end!
*loose paraphrase of Ephesians 6:13-17.
Who I Am
I'm an author, inspirational speaker, vocalist, and performance artist. I was a heroin addict saved from myself and the lifestyle (with all the pain that comes with it) but the mercy and grace of God. Thus, I am a late bloomer; but blooming none-the-less. I've yielded every talent given me, and am now using them to encourage, inspire, and motivate others to discover and lives God's marvelous plans for their lives. My books include my latest, Walking On Water When The Ground Ain't Enuf; I Say A Prayer For Me: One Woman's Life of Faith and Triumph (Warner); 12-Step Programs: A Resource Guide For Helping Professionals; and Contributing Author of SistahFaith: Real Stories of Pain, Truth and Triumph compiled by Marilynn Griffith (Howard/Simon&Schuster). I also perform a one-woman show with comedy infused throughout. It's who I am--by God's grace--one woman on a journey toward unwavering faith.
