LeAndria Johnson singing Running Back To You

i love her version of this song more than the orginal. i find myself listening to this song and this youtube video at least once a week. Her voice is so anointed!!!!

LIQUID PRAYER

Beyoncé Songs...This wont be happening ever again on my blog

I am NOT a beyonce fan at all. HOWEVER she has four songs that I do like by her, that actually has some substance to them. so I figured I would upload all three songs so you can hear them but I wont be uploading anything else by her... I JUST figured out why I love these songs so much. None of them were actually written by her. That's why it makes so much sense and are so mature... Duh, why didn't I realize this earlier.  Anywho enjoy beyonce fans.
  

He Still Love's Me-The Fighting Temptations Movie

It is always good to know that no matter what God still loves you!!!!

No I'm not lucky I'm BLESSED YESSSS!!!!

       So a lot of great things have been happening to me lately and I really feel like 2011 is my year!!! I have been working out, I lost weight and inches. I got into another graduate school. I am in good health. I am crossing off items on my goal list for 2011 as well. I joined a book club and I have been reading a lot of literature.(Although I am not a big fan of the book I am reading now because it is a pretty depressing book) I went on a random road trip. I trying different foods, and I actually enjoy it. lol. I even started a blog! lol. The lord is opening up a lot of opportunities for me. I am very thankful,gr8ful, and humbled about everything that is happening in my life. There is one thing however I need to upgrade and do in my life. I listen to gospel music and try to live by the Lord's word. I mess up from time to time, I am human. But I wanna join a bible study group. It was not on my check list. It just popped up in my head today. So I am gonna do. I am a go getter. I sometimes act on impulse and that feeling in the now moment. I think about what I am going to do before I do it. However if I really want to do it. I am gonna do it. But I am going to talk to my pastor and my host family at my church and see when they are having them so that I can attend...
        The Lord has really been blessing me abundly l8ly and I am very happy with everything that is happening in my life. I am still currently broke, but I am fine with that.lol. Not really, but hey things in my life could be worse. So I am happy for where I am now. I love me some AmeriCorps VISTA, but I do wish they paid us VISTAs more. Somehow the Lord has been helping me out and I am maintaining. I call my mom almost every week, asking for money, and someway some how she produces the money and I thank her for that.  I basically make just enough money to pay all my bills to turn around and be broke all over again. Now ain't that some bullets.lol.
        I am still weighing out my options about the whole Missouri thing, for those that are wondering. I would not mind going. I talked to the woman today and I asked her did she get my cover letter and resume. She stated that she did and she would be getting back to me in the next couple of days. So I am going to w8 a week and see what she says. She informed me that she also sent out a couple of other emails to other people. So now I have competition. If it is for me, it is for me. I am just going to pray over it and if I am suppose to be in Missouri I will be in Missouri. And if I am suppose to be in Missouri, I pray that God guides and makes me a gr8 asset to the organization and the people that I serve. I do have a strong passion for gerontology so hopefully I said all the right things and I am what she is looking for. I guess I am halfway what they want because she did contact me first right????

I thought this song did a gr8 job of expressing how I am feeling right now. Enjoy and good night everyone!!!

Single Strand Knots: How to Avoid 'Em!

BGLH asks, Single strand knots or SSKs are the bane of many naturals’ existence. Today I’d like to know, how do you decrease single strand knots? Have you made adjustments that resulted in a decrease of single strand knots. If so, what were they?

Single Strand Knots are almost entirely unavoidable, but there are some things you can do to prevent them from getting too out of control. I try to avoid single strand knots by doing the following:
  • oil rinsing
  • detangling at least once a week, carefully from ends to root
  • wearing stretched styles (twist-outs are my go to style!)
  • Sealing my ends every time I wet my hair
What about you? Let me know!

Stay fabulous!
