Same Damn Time (Thanksgiving Version)


I cut the onions and green peppers at the same damn time
I baste the the turkey, glaze the ham at the same damn time
Making yams, cooking greens at the same damn time
Baking two side dishes at the same damn time
At the same damn time, at the same damn time
At the same damn time, at the same damn time
I'm in the kitchen on the phone at the same damn time
At the counter shredding cheese at the same damn time

Lack of sleep so I think I'm going crazy
Flavored tea in my cup and its tasty
Girls in the room being so lazy
Best job in the world and it don't pay me
In the kitchen drinking tea I think I need another one
Sucking on this candy and it taste just like some bubble gum
Thumbing through my recipes, haven’t found it yet
Talking on my cellphone, wishing I was a clone
Events got my mind gone, events got my mind blown
All I need is Coldstone, All I need is Coldstone
I'm rolling like Johnny Pistone
Infiltrating Coldstone and the lines way long,
I see a bunch of cones

I cut the onions & green peppers at the same damn time
I baste the the turkey, glaze the ham at the same damn time
Making yams, cooking greens at the same damn time
Baking two side dishes at the same damn time
At the same damn time, at the same damn time
At the same damn time, at the same damn time
I'm in the kitchen on the phone at the same damn time
At the counter shredding cheese at the same damn time

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!

A Prayer for My Brown Girls

One of my prayers for my daughter's is that God continues to guide them as they navigate through life. I pray that they will be surrounded by and interact with like minded individuals. I pray they really know and understand that the decisions they make today not only will have impact today or tomorrow but also in the future. I pray that God continues to open doors, the right doors for them as well as close the wrong ones.  I ask God to protect them from anyone who seeks to do harm unto them. Protect them for hurt, harm  and dangers known and unknown. I pray that they always put their faith and trust in him. Continue to strive for greatness and do their best in all that they do.  “When you have faith in God, you don’t have to worry about the future. You just know it’s all in His hands. You just go to and do your best.” -unknown

Waiting on God

I woke up Sunday morning with a lot on my mind. I made a phone call only to be greeted with negativity. I felt bad afterwards. I couldn't figure out why this person was so angry. I know I did not say or do anything wrong. That morning, I had a talk with God, but it felt different from our usual talks. Afterwards, I decided to sit on the porch to listen and to wait. What was I listening for? What was I waiting for? I was waiting to hear from HIM. I was listening for HIS voice. I talk to God often and I know he hears me when I speak. However, sometimes I feel like he is ignoring me. After waiting for what seemed like an eternity it happened. I heard him. He was responding to a few things I spoke to him about during my talk. I heard him say, he allows situations to occur in my life for a reason. He moves people in and out of my life for a reason. I need to stop trying to fix things (people, places and things) that are probably meant to stay broken. Stop fighting people who are ...

Twerk A Book....Make Them Pages Clap

Don't twerk something, read something. It is estimated that school summer breaks will cause the average student to lose up to one month of instruction, with disadvantaged students being disproportionately affected (Cooper, 1996). Hence, why it is important to read during the summer. Summer reading help our childrem retain and enhance their there reading skills. It also helps to magnify their cognitive skills. These skills include,  communication (writing and verbal)  attention, memory, logic, reasoning, auditory processing and visual processing which are all critical for learning. As parents we are our children's first educators and it is important to stress the importance of education. We must encourage our children to read throughout the summer. During the school year our children are required to read every day and night for a certain time during a certain time. I believe we should continue that process during the summer. However, the process should be relaxed. Allow t...
