Relocating to NOLA or Bust!! I would"nt trade nothing for the journey!

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...

AMC "Mad Men" Finale! Absolutely the best Finale I've ever seen!!

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 bri...

Real Housewives of Atlanta Reunion Part 1.. Oh The Thirst and Shade is Real NeNe!

~ 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...

The Complacent cop Clarence Habersham that did nothing while Walter Scott was murdered in cold blood.

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.

Police Officer Murder of Walter Scott in South Carolina a Tragedy and I pray this Nation heals from this.

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 ...

Real Housewives of New York 2015 Debut Show Didn't disappoint! My appetites whetted!

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 ...

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion show was great but Kim really scares me!

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...
