My two sons

Every once in a while I’m able to get these guys to pose in a picture with me! My two sons!

Since the earlier days they have been my subject for taking pictures. As they have matured into young men they hardly like to allow me to capture a moment with them (awww boo!) On this rare occasion they allowed me to do so. It’s always a great day when we three come together! Much love to these guys!

Second Time Around

I’m excited once again to announce that I am 50 days in on the #100daydreamchallenge second time around. I’m so happy to work on developing the habit of writing everyday. I was inspired many years ago by marketing guru Seth Godin as he writes a blog post everyday. That was a goal of mine and it wasn’t until earlier this year when Social Media Influencer Brother Ben X proposed a challenge to his followers to do something for 100 days in a row. For me that something was to write a blog post everyday! I successfully completed the #100daydreamchallenge in June and decided to start again. So here we are 50 days in second time around and I’m excited to keep this going! So I encourage you to challenge yourself to doing something (anything) for the next 100 days. See how committed you will be to the process.

Today I celebrate the halfway point of the challenge and look forward to keep going!

Special Birthday Wishes!

Today is a special day! It’s the Anniversary of birth of my dear ole mother!

August 6 a great day in history for our family. My mother was born in Sparta, Georgia she was one of five children of her parents. Her father died when she was five years old leaving my grandmother a widow and left to raise her 5 children on her own. At the age of 11, my mother and family moved to our home town of Springfield, Ohio. During those days many black folks were looking for better conditions for their lives and the lives of their families. They found better life for themselves and settled in Springfield, Ohio!

Down the line… She married my father.. and she had a seven children of her own with 3 bonus children.

Happy Happy Birthday Mother!!!! Wish you many many more!

Ultimate TO-DO List

So now we have entered in the 8th month of the year 2022! I feel like the saying funny how time flies when your having fun. It’s seems as though things have been pretty eventful and I’ve had a calendar full of activities and appointments which tend to make the year go by pretty swiftly. At times I’m planning to get so many things off of the ultimate “TO-DO” List and then I have the daily weekly monthly task that I work to stay consistent with and before I know it items on the ULTIMATE “TO-DO” List are still there and I’m trying to figure when am I going to get to these things??!!!!

Now that we are into August I have a few things that I must get ready to do.

We have a few product ideas that are still in the development stages and I have some additional items within are photography business that we are wanting to offer. Our goal will be to at least have those things completed by the end of the month.

Now that I’ve officially put it out here, I’ve got to do it! So now you will hold me accountable for my actions or lack there of!

When Friday Feels So Good!

This week has been a pretty busy one for us! We’ve had many appointments on our calendar this week and it feels like we have been running from pillar to post! So today after finishing up some of our contract work we did a big exhale and had some quiet time just to take in the moments of peace!

That feel-good moment hit real nice this Friday!

#TBT Card Party- Birthday Style

Throwback Thursday!

The year was 2007 and I was celebrating my birthday with having a get together at my apartment. During that time myself and some of my close friends we regularly hosted card parties ever so often. This was a time when we would invite a mix of people over play card share in spirits eat some good food and talk allot of trash when playing the game. In our network card parties were the place to be! Aww that just seems like a lifetime ago. Well for my birthday that particular year we just decided to do the same thing except it’s my birthday so we were added birthday decorations and a cake! So as we gathered everyone together to play cards enjoy some great music eat good food and fellowship! We made allot of great memories with our gatherings. There is nothing like a great night of friends and fellowship and talking trash while playing a good game of spade!
