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.

Our Natural Kids Network

I was just checking out SistaChick's youtube channel just to see what she's been up to lately, and learned that she's recently started what sounds like a really interested and innovative online network for parents of natural haired children (LOVE IT!)

Hope you're having a fabulous Sunday!  I know I am :)

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!
