I'm spending some time updating my website at supanatural.webs.com today and in the process I have had some of my old youtube tutorials playing in the background. First, its waaaaaaaay too late for me to be up listening to youtube, but even as I listen, and work on my website, I can't help but assess where life has taken me over this past year. 2010 has FLOWN by, and its almost OVER. Time flies. I was watching my Vision Board tutorial from Jan 2010, and listening to the resolutions I shared in it, and can't help but wonder if its normal for goals to change from year to year. My goal for being starting a family as well as my own businesses have not changed, but I've started wavering on idea of starting another school....I just feel so tired of ....fighting. There's more of a back story to this, but in short, I've been re-evaluating how I position myself as an educator. Up to today, I've been much more of a fighter for the rights of kids and families who most often get cheated and mistreated by the current education system. But my spirit is tired. I'm tired, of fighting. I want to live in a way that most energizes me, and I must change directions to make that happen. My new year's resolution for 2011 is to redesign the way I spend my time. I've GOT to give more time to my websites (supanatural.webs.com and pre-k2ba.webs.com). I have to get serious about starting a formal non-profit, and starting my supanatural t-shirt line.
Please God, just help me get focused and get started...

Slow Your Roll!
So what do you do when you're confined to a space and people are sending out nothing but negative vibes? I consider myself a strong person---NO, I am strong, and it's taken me some time to develop this strength I now have. I'm a self-evaluator (by nature??) so I've spent many years developing the level of self awareness that I can say I have for myself. I have even come to a space in my life where I know how to maintain a certain vibe to pull the things I want into my life (others call this the law of attraction. I don't know it to be quite that deep yet). But what I'm struggling with now is how to maintain my positive energy when I can't always choose who I'm going to spend my time with, and I'm with folks who can't stand to say two nice words about anyone. It's a mindset I won't fall into. Life is so different when you look for the positives in people and bring light to them. It makes life worth living, and I believe you love yourself more because of it. I guess the best I can do for now is look for the positives in the gossipers and keep on steppin' -- because I got too much going on to do worse than that.

Natural "Up Dos" for the workplace
Hey guys, finally posting this pics!
Here are some styles I wore these very professional up-do styles I wore to work this summer.
I live in Houston now, where the heat and humidity are RI-DICULOUS, so these up-dos do the trick :)
These would work well for the winter protective styles we naturals need too.
If you'd like a tutorial on any of these, let me know.

Gotta get movin again
...Man, I really need to get started with my art work and videos again....
WELCOME to all of my Facebook fans and Youtube subscribers who've found me here...Welcome :) Come on in!
I'm still a little under the weather from my last post, so I haven't quite gathered the motivation to paint, sew or produce vids like I need to. God willing, I'll be up and running again this weekend...I miss it!! I did do an impromptu painting recently for my apartment though. I'll post a picture. Mainly, I just slopped some paint on a giant canvas over a series of days, just to see what I could produce, based on pure boundless inspiration. I kinda like!! It sits nicely in my dinning room for now.
I'll be posting a hairstory video this weekend, that includes pictures from my latest hair check!
I think you'll be impressed! I was!
Stay tuned for that!
Nappy Friday!

Official Nappily Ever After Blog: Blog Tour: Nappturalite Radio Interview
Official Nappily Ever After Blog: Blog Tour: Nappturalite Radio Interview
Several years ago (ok, like 2005 or 6), I read my first book by Trisha R. Thomas, while soaking in my garden style tub in the middle of a Saturday afternoon---after a huge break-up. Until I ran across her official blog today, I'd forgotten how much her first book, Nappily Ever After, captivated me. A story about hair...an AFRICAN-AMERICAN story about OUR hair. Before this book, I'd never considered ALL that black hair does (or doesn't) do for us in American society. Spellbound, I read that first book, virtually from cover to cover, and had to have more. I've since then read 4 of her books and consider her one of my favorite novelists. If you haven't had a chance to check her out, you're MISSING OUT.
Can't wait to see the movie.
Anyone got any information on when it comes out??
