This past week a person I think a lot of has been constantly harassed and berated on her personal blog. Now normally that would not offend me, I would just shrug it off , consider them a moron and move on. However, the attacks have come from individuals that are claiming they are Christians. Many of them have gone under the guise of anonymous, some have been bold enough to use their blognames, wither way it is a sad thing when people attack others using the guise of religion. See I don't care if … [Read more...]

November 21, 2009 by 9 Comments
I love movies.. period.. but I hate movie theaters... so I am a DVD fanatic.. About 5 years ago I was introduced to a character by the name of Madea. Picture Big Mama with a whole lot more attitude. Tyler Perry raised in the church of Bishop Paul Morton in Louisiana knew that God had a purpose for his life. HE left home with only the money in his pocket and headed to New York to be a world famous playwright. He had Madea in his mind, wanted to make her honest and blunt with an edge of humor and … [Read more...]

It is too quiet here
November 2, 2009 by Leave a Comment
The silence is deafening. I sit in an empty house with only the sound of Paula White on t.v. to quiet the ear shattering sounds of silence in my house. Funny how as mothers this is the day we look forward to eventually. Children grown respectable adults with fulfilling lives and careers and hopefully spouses, the ability to regain "our" ground and territory. We long for the day we can have only enough clothes in the home laundry basket for 2 people, us and our spouse, no toys in odd … [Read more...]
