What Do i do Now? HeySistah Publishing

Good Morning , Growing up on 67th & Carpenter I had many role models and learned the value in each persons role and to respect their endeavors at excellence. I watched some mothers stay at home and care for the house and raise the children while the father went to work,Mrs. Hill buying all that food and milk at Hillmans Grocery Store on 63rd. Mrs. Veal taking care of her home, Mrs. Keenon going to work, Mrs.Payne and Mrs.Wilks, and Mrs. Lingo sending their kids out with ful l bellies and ready for school. Mrs. Myers,Mrs. Marshall, Mrs.Scott. Mrs. Jett, Daisy, Mrs. Lester being single Moms working hard to feed and raise their families, some were widows some left men to raise their children alone becaiuse that was best for them and I respect that much more now that I know how truly hard that is. Especially the moms with 5 or more kids I pray for strength and patience daily with 2 kids I don't know how the heck they did it with more! Cooking delicious and nutritious me

Remember May 18, 2015....... Mad Men has left the Building.. Remember the day that one of the best written, acted, costumed, and staged shows in history came to a fabulously and totally satisfying end!! I sat at the edge of the couch cushion and watched every moment with bated breath. I laughed, I cried, I enjoyed EVERY moment!  Peggy Olson First I loved Madmen because I could tune in and look into Don Drapers sexy and conflicted eyes. Then I stayed to watch the ever evolving characters come to life.  Peggy came out of her shell and at the encouragement and tutelage of Don, as well as being snatched from the abyss of madness, became the formidable copywriter she was destined to be. It was a pleasant surprise that peggy should realize she loved her writing partner in crime Stan Rizzo, and they should fall into each others arms with loves first kiss, fulfilled the little princess trapped in her tower in me.  Roger Sterling Roger never failed to bring the comic relief and levit

~ Real Housewives of Atlanta Reunion Part 1 ~ "The thirst is Real" The quote from Nene about Claudia was on point as her actions the entire season, and during the reunion taping made quite evident. The ladies were exquisitely dressed  but Claudia behaved with as much class as a $2 dollar Hoe. The numerous snarky remarks, and immature "bullshit" sneeze that Claudia so tackily displayed should truly make her feel ashamed of herself cause I'm damn sure her Mother  most definitely isn't answering her phone, and avoiding stares in the grocery store. "Its all fun till the Rabbit get's the gun" I swear in an effort to be relevant Kenya and Cynthia spew malicious rumors so self assuredly, you'd swear they were a fly on the wall, or have some irrefutable proof. In my Brandy voice " Shut the Fuck Up" Cynthia didn't feel her repeating speculative remarks regarding Phaedra's marriage were injurious to her reputa

http://www.mimesiswebtv.com/uncategorized/the-clarence-habersham-problem/ They say that for evil to win all good men have to do is nothing. This is so true and now that we have beat the subject to death of people being shot and beaten to death by police. Now let;s call to task their enablers. I'm not just talking about the partners that are bound by some crazy code of silence, which somehow greatly resembles the "do not snitch code by criminals". Captains and Sergeants , and commissioners that turn a blind eye and fail to hold these people accountable for their actions. Until there is a fully comprehensive overhaul for the way the wheel functions, the broken spokes mean nothing if the rest of the wheel is eroded from within.  I guess now we have to figure out where do we go from here, and how do we change the system and the way we react or not for that matter.IJS.

I grew up in Chicago on the south side in Englewood. I watched my single mother raise 5 girls and 2 boys living in constant fear.  Fear for her daughters being victims of rape and molestation, and fear for my brothers being routinely "stopped and frisked" as we called it. I remember when a murder of cops took place in Englewood and they dragged 100's of black men to jail at the 62nd and Racine Police Station(It's still there)and my brother was one of them. I vividly remember my Mom's desperation when she found out my brother was being held, and I held my breath until he walked through the door okay. I heard the story how the station was filled with mothers of son's and none of them fit the description of the Assailants.  One woman's son was half white with wavy long hair and they beat him mercilessly, just because to them he probably wasn't black enough. I bet he has a story to tell. Needless to say my Mother was lucky to be the kind of Mother tha

Bethannys Baaaaccckk: Bethanny I'm so sorry to see what you're going through but be encouraged. I wanna give you a viewers perspective of your marriage. You were and always are brutally honest, I am also accused of that, but as my late mom said "It's hard to remember a lie, the truth is easy to remember. Reversed marriage roles: While your spouse was a manly man, he unfortunately wasn't a good listener, and endeavored (with help from his family) to fix you, and change you into the kind of woman he wanted you to be. He didn't accept you as the fractured person you were and you couldn't have been more clear about your issues. Ex: How many times did you tell him you didn't want a surprise party, or a big deal made of your birthday. I wanted to slap him through the TV, your reaction was kind I would've turned around an d left. He then at every turn tried to make you feel guilty for not feeling and reacting to his family like him. Watching reminded

Kim Richards is in denial: I'm sitting home on my couch watching the show each week and I was concerned for Kim so I can understand the ladies concern and or meddling in concern for her well-being. I also have a lot of empathy and sympathy for kim and alot of what's going on in her life. Monty and the Dog: I cared for my Mom god rest her soul until she passed away due to cancer and it is a difficult thing to watch a person you love suffer and die little every day while you are powerless to do anything but give them love and support, to them its enough to you it's not. There is alot of anger and frustration and I think unfortunately this season the other girls got the brunt of it. So cut her some slack. I've had 12 dogs at one time and the EXACT same dog as Kim, I loved my dog to death but their bodies are PURE muscle they are huge and powerful. Kim had no respect and fear for that dogs power , you can treat a poodle like ur baby but not a pit bull, they don&

I think it's possible to shine the light on something to help people be more aware and to start a positive dialog and change. This man has been stopped more than likely because he;s driving an expensive car and he's black. In this day and age they should be used to it when everyone and anyone can be rich nowadays. I think there's more teenage millionaires than adults thanks to Apps and the internet! So let's stop pre-judging and profiling people because nothing is it appears to be anymore. Have a great day people. See Full story: chris-rock-cops-pulled-over_n_6984720.html

What is the world coming to? I had a job my freshman year of high school!  I knew the value, and how hard it was to earn a dollar. Children are given ways too much today! I read a story today about a young girl that wanted to kill her Aunt that with love took her in, fed and loved her, but refused to let her use her home as a hotel by bringing home random men to sleep with, and degrade herself as a prostitute.  Ungrateful ass kids that feel somebody owes them something, why not get a job and get your own place then you can fuck who you want. Noooo that makes less sense than murdering the person that gave you a home and love. No good deed goes unpunished, you can't win with this entitled kids today that don't want to earn a dam thing anymore. Smh Read the full story here: C3vDfOl

It's just like NeNe to share the spotlight and help a Sistah out when she can. She's real enuf to let others write her blog from a viewer's perspective, how unselfish is that?  I loves me some NeNe!! You bet not say nothing bad bout my girl NeNe!!  (Well heck you don't have to, all you gotta do is watch the last episode, everybody that wanted camera time uttered he name!) "But I ain't one to gossip, so you ain't heard it from me!" This season for me has been like watching the lobsters in the tank at a seafood restaurant.   Cynthia, Claudia, Kandi, and Kenya have clawed and cut other cast members in a desperate attempt to be relevant and get to the top of the Housewives tank.  We've seen them do everything but sell their souls to the Devil himself to get camera time, and it's a sorry sight to behold women that claim to have strong morals, and possess class. Throw each other under the proverbial bus. But listen here while I tell the tale

A few things to live by>>>> As a parent of a child with Autism there are many things I've learned, that help me cope with everyday life so I'm going to list them in hopes it can help someone else. 1. Always be proactive when planning lunches, day trips, time at home. Keep a togo bag with favorite toys, books, tablets, chargers, snacks,and a frozen bottle of water, and unfrozen bottle of water. (trust me)  2. Keep snack packs like cut up apples, bananas, grapes, pepperoni in little containers readily available in the fridge. 3. Sing routines to help make them fun. I did a conga line for potty training " Let's go use the pottay!!" "Let's go use the pottay!!" 4. Allow your child to help when you're grocery shopping, if they're picking out their own fruit, and snacks, or retrieving items out of the deep freeze they are positively distracted and less like to have a meltdown. 5. Don't wait until your child is very hungry

I love my son and one thing you can definitely say is Autism keeps you on your toes!! When you are an Autism mom you wear many hats, I feel like CSI, Sherlock Holmes, Short order cook, ER Nurse, Psychic Mind reader and Hazel the maid at any given moment. Overtime I walk into a room I have to access the spills, puddles, and or random full cups contents and quickly ascertain if it is dangerous, or if a difficult clean up is imminent. I feel like the funny guy on the show psych" I swear thats how I scan a room .just like he does on that show" !!   I scan the room to see whats missing? The buckets gone, he's playing in water somewhere, the garbage is full, he changed diapers and threw them away, the toilet keeps running, he used a handful of wipes.  Try figuring out whats wrong when a non-verbal child comes to you crying tears and you at a moments notice have to assess the situation and decide if medical aid is needed that you can provide, or a ER visit is necessary! My so

Autism- Our cross to bear... It's horrible when you're treated like this by strangers, but it's far more hurtful and upsetting when you're treated like that by family, and or excluded because they have strong opinions about how you should parent, and judge you, and they've never even taken your child to the park, or made an effort to connect with them. You want your child to be loved and supported, not judged, they are more kind, compassionate, and intelligent than the people that endeavor to judge them. Our heart breaks every time they get a disapproving look or a stare. You have to keep a brave face when they make insensitive and ignorant remarks, and you constantly have to defend and explain your childs behaviors. You live each day poised for, an attack, or comment, or judgement.  I feel like a three musketeer always at the ready to fight! " ON GUARD"
