.: Weekend Wrap-Up :.

Well...What a weekend I had. I was so tied up with activities that I didn't get a chance to check in. I must say...This weekend was great!!! Full of laughter, smiles, family, and friends. It was labor day weekend, but there was NO labor in my weekend lol. As folks are now finding out about my departure, things have been crazy. My calendar is so full for these last days that I'm not sure I'm going to get in the time I need to say farewell to everyone.

Everyone keeps asking me, "Are you ready?" "Are you scared?" My answers, Yes and No. I admitted to a friend last night that I'm SO ready for the change, but I delayed telling folks about the move for so long because I am not sure of how ready I am to leave everyone and everything I know, behind. I am so excited for the change but it's going to be a major adjustment. So yes, there is excitement, no real fear, just the desire to pick up everyone, put them in my suitcase and go with me. I guess that defeats the purpose though right?

Anywho, so how did my weekend go...
Friday night: After a difficult day with a disappointing and heart wrenching discussion with someone, my mood was not quite right. I had no intentions of going out, but I got the call to come hang out with a couple of friends. No club needed...we made our own fun, with our own music, and had a GREAT time. We had our own photo-shoot, told jokes, and laughed all night...A great way to spend a Friday night. It's the simple things that make permanent memories with me. I've never lived an overly extravagant life. It's the little things...So s/o to these folks for making my Friday night memorable and giving me memories to last a lifetime.

I spent Saturday doing a whole lot of NOTHING...and it was EXCELLENT. I knew I had to minister on Sunday. So when that happens, I used Saturday to rest my spirit, and my mind. Peace and quiet for me just does something for me. Sunday was spent giving God the honor and praise he was due. It was followed by a wonderful lunch with the Praise & Worship Ministry and Davids Dancers. Most of you know that those two ministries have been a HUGE part of my life over the last 8 years. I'm so grateful for everything that they have poured in to me over the years...Thank you for the beautiful Floral arrangement.

Most people will never care to admit how much they enjoy spending time with their parents...I'm not one of those cases. I spent Sunday and Monday with mine. We took a quick trip away just for some relaxation. I realized I might not get another chance to do so before leaving so I jumped at the opportunity. We listened to old school on the way up...I smiled as I listened to my Dad sing an octave lower, and as my mom added Gospel rifts and harmonies to every song that came on. I enjoyed every minute I got to spend with them. I love my parents!!

Well...What else can I say...I love my family, and I love my friends...I can't wait to make more memories...

Until next time


Always [Love] Forever,
