GHOST TOWN

what will become of michigan? I was driving home yesterday and the blocks that used to have children playing in the yards and husbands and wives, and other family unions are all gone...it's like we are becoming one big "ghost town", on my block in the hood, neighbors I knew are long gone and empty houses sit, the kids my kids used to play with are long gone. It's not just a Detroit problem, the burbs have the same issues, empty blocks, spaces that used to be filled with people..gone, I worry what will become of me and my brood and continue to pray every day and look for a better way to make it!

We need to stop the violence in our own neighborhoods, we need to watch and protect each other. I&

Nope, instead, I am doing the same thing I do every weekend...karate,kids,dinner, t.v. So I had wanted to know what was up and waited patiently, my answer has been given to me.........SUPRISE!

IT WAS A GOOD WEEKEND

This was a good weekend, summer fun fest, bbq cook out and games for all, the only thing missing was ...you know, but as long as I avoid sad songs and sappy movies, I should be okay, my legs hurt, my accupressure gal says it's cause I'm worried about a man, could be, yea it is. It's been a while. Meanwhile back at the ranch I'm resisting temptation to call an ex, or get involved with the next. I'm giving me some me time, trying create a new career for me, that pays well, I'm good at what I do and somewhere somebody will pay me well for it, then I can get some new digs to live in and watch my babies grow well. So I've outlined my goals and other than a good dye job to my hair and keep exercising to avoid the broken heart= fatty food syndrome, I plan to meditate with God, and do what I always do..keep movin.
