The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards-- my version

There are so many things that I can say about the Grammys. I am so happy that there is no school tomorrow so I can stay up and blog about them. As a kid my Nazi mother would not let us stay up on Sunday night to watch, so of course I let my kids watch! I AM NOT MY MOTHER!!!
I love you Momma!!!

THis is my take on the Grammys.
LADY GAGA/ ELTON JOHN- what is up with this chick? Was she abused? I dont get it. She used to look normal.

GreenDay--awesome!!! I would love to see the musical.

Beyonce--- will that Single Ladies song EVER die. She is so unoriginal . The video is totally ripped off from back in the day. Her set was not a good look. She came out like she was Janet Jackson in Rhythm Nation and Tina Turner in Mad Max and the Thunderdome. Then she had to nerve to put Alanis in her set, no, NEVER. Bey, listen to me. Have Camel's baby, get fat like Momma Tina, do some drugs to get skinny for your "comeback" and then do Dr. Drew's Celeb Rehab. That was free, from me to you.

PINK-- I love her, She can really sing and is kinda crazy/edgy but I like her. She's got a cute bod, though. I was too busy looking at her twirling on the ribbons. I don't even remember the song she was singing.

Taylor Swift-- I like her. I am not sure that I would admit it on FB or anything, but I like her. She seems normal and wholesome, much better than the rest of these poptarts. And she can actually sing!

Miley-- at least she has got some clothes on.

Black Eyed Peas-- What!!! do they have on? The beat is hot but I am not sure about the rest.... this is why I stick with gospel.... The band is nice though. Fergie is ugly, body is tight, butta face...

Lady Antebellum-- ????

Who is that fine man with Kaley Cuoco? MMMM yum

Finally Beyonce did not win something!!! Go Kings of Leon, I don't know who you are, but you beat her!

Jamie Foxx and T-Pain-- Love Jamie but Auto tune needs to die! Oh wow!!! Doug E Fresh came out and Slash killed it!!!

Katy Perry is cute... Alice Cooper, no.

I'd rather see LL Cool J than Chris O'Donnell.

The Zack Brown Band killed America-- sounding like the Gatling Bros. Harmonize boo! Ya'l betta play that guitar!

On Facebook most of my friends are bored with the country, but I am diggin' this. I mean, I wouldn't but buy their CD, but they are cool.

Taylor Swift--- sang girl! Ok, she is not so great. I guess that she is not a live performer. Maybe she's nervous. Now, i like that "You Belong with Me" song, but tonight it is not good.

Right now I am anxiously awaiting the Micheal Jackson tribute. I can't wait to see his kids. Yes!!! Lionel Ritchie is up so it must be the tribute. I do not know why they had Carrie Underwood and Celine up here. And where did everyone get the 3D glasses? Nobody told me. Jennifer looked wonderful. She sang just as good. I wish that they had sung something else. Anyway, the kids looked good. Jermaine's kids looked like they had just walked out of the plastic surgery clinic. BWAHHHH HAAA HAAA!!! I crack myself up!

Yes, Jon BonJovi can act and he is cute for a white cat, but why do I want to listen to three of his songs?

Mos Def, I love smart cats!!

Sing Mary J. She looks awesome. That dress is beautiful on her. I wish that she would go back to darker hair though. The blond is dated. But she is an awesome talent singing with and holding her own with one of opera's greats!

I like that cool white boy vibe that Dave Matthews has.

Ricky Martin still looks good, even though he is gay, And Lea Michele is the bomb. I love Glee! That girl can sing!

I don't have anything to say about that paperclip dress... smh

James Todd Smith showed up for me... I love you LL!!!

Maxwell and Roberta! Love it. She sang her little old heart out.

Les Paul-- I know him. Guitars. I guess Phillip did teach me a little something...

Why even put Lil Wayne on TV if 75% of what he is saying is beeped out?!?!??! What is the Drake hype all about?

So I Googled the #1 song of my birthday and i got a Carpenters song! I am not that old.

Ut Oh Taylor, Look out for Gay Fish!!! Yay, she beat Beyonce!!!

Well folks, that was the end of the Grammy's. There were no real suprises and the MJ tribute was so-so. I did think that I was HI-LARIOUS though.

Good night Folks!!!



UUUGGGG!

SCHOOL WORK!

Been a While

It has been a while since my last post. Much has happened. My new classes have started, my kids have started exams and God has been blessing!!! I am so happy about the things that he has started. I had a coworker ask me about my upcoming student teaching and the fact that I had to quit my kob to complete that. She then told me that she and another coworker were trying to solicit funds for a scholarship for me!!!! Ain't my God good! The fast has been going well and I have truly felt His presence in service. The Spirit has been high! Today's Word was good too. I felt so good...

I am excited about all of the other things that God has in store for me.

I almost forgot, I kinda enjoyed myself on Friday night at the Hope Cafe. The live music, spoken word and comedy were interesting. It was good to get out with other adults in a Christian atmosphere and be home by 10PM! I hope to do it again soon. Maybe this Friday. I will be sure to eat before I go and just buy a coffee or dessert.

Ya'll be good now!

Happy New Year!!!!




Hello All,

I pray that your New Year's festivities have left you feeling well! I had a good time at church last night and got to be quite early... I wish I could have gotten up early to catch the sales, but alas, I am still in the bed.
I'm getting ready to get a roasted chicken and eat that with turnip greens and black eyed peas for a late lunch!!! Yummm!!! This southern tradition signifies the good luck that one will have with money by eating the greens (dollar bills) and black eyed peas (pennies/coins). I don't believe in the luck, I just love to eat them!!

I have a New Year's Wish and Prayer for you all... May God richly bless you and may you let Him guide your life!!!! Actually, having Jesus guiding your life is a rich blessing. Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all of these things will be added unto you!!

Sassy

A New Year, A New Game

I usually don't make resolutions for the new year. I feel that any changes I make can be done the day I think of them and I am always looking for ways and things to improve. But last night I decided to make some changes and they will happen to coincide with the New Year.

Our church is going on a 21 day fast. I am not that cranked about it, but I know that it will aid in my spiritual growth. So, I am stepping up my game for the Lord and it seems fitting to step up my game for myself. I have 2 wedding this spring to attend and I want to look my best. I have already started losing the 20 pounds that I want to have off by then. I would love to go for 30, but that may be pushing it! I am going to get back to walking the mile 3x per week and cardio 3x per week. Between the weather and Christmas break, I have not been on my game.

The new semester begins soon and I want to continue with the quality of work that I have been producing and improve. I also want to be able to give my kids more attention in their school work, and help my oldest find a job!!!

Also, in my personal life, the area that really started this rehash, there will be more changes. At our church business meeting, the guy that I like (boy, does that sound so middle school) was teasing me about something and a friend said that "He's doing that b/c he likes you". I said that if he likes me he needs to stop playing games like that with his 40 year old self!!! I am not playing games like that ANYMORE!!! If you want to be with me, you gotta come correct! Flirting and joking are fine, but I am not getting any younger, so come with something better than that.
Prince is a big source of confusion for me. I have not been actively seeking a man, but he keeps popping up on my radar. We have been to dinner a few times, been shopping, ran errands together, played golf, and gone to a wedding together. I have always had a good time even though he is kinda nerdy! I know that he is a good man but I don't want to play games anymore. It is what it is... are we going somewhere with this, or not. There is really no in between!
I think that I will look into Match.com or eHarmony this year. I want to start dating again and I cannot wait all day for him.

So that's it. I am not playing around this year, I am stepping it up... moving forward into my destiny, which is bigger than anyone can even imagine! Thank you Jesus!!!!!

Have a Happy New Year !!!!!

Bloggity- Blog


I am sitting here with my 15 year old and he says that blogs suck!! Why do people have blogs for other people they don't know to look at? Bloggity Blog!!!I have no idea, but I am writing one. So here is more stuff about my life that no one wants to read!!


I am in Kernersville, NC with my family for Christmas. This is a SMALL town. I have not seen as small a place as this one in a long while. I mean, there are other places like Greensboro and Winston- Salem around, but it is NOT Raleigh. And I am sure that many people out there would say that Raleigh is a rinky-dink little town too!

I have had fun shopping for Christmas Eve dinner with my mom, but I am tired!!!! I guess that the sinus infection and ear infection have gotten the best of me. She ran me all over the place, but I am ready to eat my delicious Sweet Potato Souffle. It has a pecan glaze on top... Yummo!

I am praying that my kids dad will come up with SOMETHING to give them for Christmas. I mean really, he doesn't provide any support at all for them all year!!!!! so it should not be a chore to come up with $300 once a year! Deadbeat! I can't believe that I married that fool! I pray that my boys don't end up like him at all...

I guess I will go into the kitchen and finish my preparations for tomorrow!
Be blessed and remember that Jesus is the reason and put Him first!

December!!!

It is my FAVORITE time of the year!!! I love Christmas and New Years. I won't be doing much shopping this year but I still will have fun... I am putting up my decorations this weekend. Since this is out 1st Christmas in the new place I will put up more than a wreath on the door!

The semester is almost over and the teacher from H-E double hockey sticks will be out of my life forever!!!! YAY I cannot believe that I will be graduating in exactly 2 years. I am supposed to be doing a reflection on a lesson that I taught, but I am not feeling it. What to do, what to do?

I can't wait until I am out of school for Christmas break and I can walk around the mall and see all of the shoppers. I love the sights and sounds of the season. It is all I can do not to wear my reindeer shirt every day!!! I will wear it tomorrow!

G'nite, maybe I'll post a picture of my reindeer shirt!!!
