Stone Ages

If I offend anyone... accept my apologies in advance. I can't tell you how many times last week I thanked God I grew up in a big city... not a big city in a small town. As I traveled to my family reunion... I was reminded that everyone doesn't have the same luxuries. Things I couldn't fathom living without they don't even seem to know exist. I can't remember the last time I went inside a gas station for gas. As long as I've been driving I've been able to pay at the pump. I believe I was in Titusville, Georgia when I encountered this. Not only did we have to pay inside... after were moved from pump to pump we helped them realize they were out of premium gas. They'd probably been out for days... being that not to many people in the town purchased it. All I can say is WOW! A few hours later I was hit with a throw back
armored truck..... again... I was left speechless.

What Is Love?

I'd have to admit..... I have never truly been in love. But I've seen many examples over the years. This guy's love speaks voulmes. Read the story below... then watch. I was brought to tears.

"The Proposal"

This guy Rob said God was unfolding a vision in his life over the span of about a year and then he put faith to feet and made it happen. Rob and Keisha dated for about 4 years. And he knew that she was the one...but he had to save up for all that God had prompted him to do for her. So in short what you are about to see happened on April 28th....he rented out 10 rooms at the Ritz Carlton in Buckhead and invited about 50-60 people to be there for this special night...Keisha had to go from room to room and in each room were people who were special to them....his boys...her girls...her Bible Study group....his parents...her parents..etc. and everybody in each room had questions that she had to answer to be able to move to the next room and before she left each room the people there would pray over her....so you have to watch each room to see how that goes...now about the roses....Keisha's aunt recently passed suddenly and she loved roses so he bought some and had them dipped in gold because of the stories in the Bible about Solomon and how everything was dipped in gold and the song that you hear playing in the background was the same song that was played at Keisha's aunt's funeral, she was like a second mom to Keisha.

When Rob was asked what he was thinking and how it felt...he said that he was kicking and screaming all the way. not because he did not love Keisha and want to marry her....but because of the time, money, and stress that was spent doing this. Rob, put his house up for rent and saved for her ring and this night and he did it out of obedience...

"I have spent the past year of my life piecing together a vision given to me by God. On April 28th, 2007 that vision was fulfilled. My labor of love for the woman I love." Robert Gray, Jr. Watch "The Proposal."

Just Beautiful.... tell me what you think.

Why Bobby.... Whyyyyyyyy?

Bobby Cutts Jr. Has been arrested. Put behind bars. Locked up! He's charged with two counts of Murder. A body believed to be that of Jessie Davis was found yesterday. Jessie was 9 months pregnant. Police have not said what evidence led them to take Bobby Cutts into custody... but I'm sure they had something substantial. All week long I defended this man, I do not know him but something made me feel that he was not the guy. I guess he fooled me. He just didn't have the look of a man who would kill. When he spoke it didn't sound like he was trying to conjour up emotion.. Bobby Cutts sounded sincere.
Just like Jessie's mother I was hoping it was not him. Why Bobby Cutts... Why? If you didn't wan't another child....there were many steps you could have taken before being charged for murder. Like.... birth control pills, condoms, vasectomy, or better yet not cheating on your wife! I know that he'll never read this but this is for all the other men who one day might find themselves in a Bobby Cutts Jr. type of situation. They didn't get O.J. But Bobby they got you.... and you will PAY!

Hard to believe.... she's all grown up....

They say "time flies when you're having fun." How about changing it to "time just flies." Last Thursday evening I attended my baby sister's high school graduation... it's hard to believe she's done with that portion of her life. You see, I remember my mom being pregnant with her. I remember the day she was born like it was just this morning. I remember when she learned to dance, her first words, her first day of school, and when she lost her first tooth. It's like she was my very own kid.
I'm so proud of her! Chynna's so talented her possibilities are unlimited, she's always been our little star. All weekend I kept trying to look at her as a young adult. I thought about how grown up I thought I was when I graduated from high school and tried to treat her the way I thought she wanted to be treated... but I failed. Riding in the car I still reached over and pinched her cheeks (she frowned), I still grabbed her arm to use as a mic while singing (she snatched it back). These are the things I've done to her since she was small. I could only imagine how my parents feel...maybe proud, a sense of accomplishment, but i'm sure they're a little confused at to what to do with their big "baby" as well. For now I've concluded that not much will change... it will be a long struggle for us to treat her as the woman she's becoming while looking at her as our baby girl.

I finally got a piece of the piiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee!

I know, I know... it's been a while... but I've been busy and the weeks have stormed by. Anyway... about a week ago I celebrated my 1st anniversary as a homeowner. Last May I decided to give it a go and stop paying an enormous amount for rent. It took me four months to find a place, and get a mortgage. What an experience that was. I swear my mortgage broker was the most incompetent person in the whole wide world! He was a nightmare! For months I followed up on emails and calls.. his customer service was at an all time low. But in the end it was worth the wait. Few things have ever felt better than the moment I picked up the keys to my condo. My mom was with me, I just wish my dad could have come to town to share the moment as well. To some my place is rather small. But it's enough room for me, and it's mine. It's in a great community, and everything I need is just a hop, skip, and jump away. (except for the mall... but that doesn't matter cause where there's a will there's a way!)When I moved in the walls were just white.... but with the help of my imagination, betterhomesandgardens.com, and The Home Depot... I transformed it into a jewel box.
Welcome to my home!
