Our music video 'Get It Right', feat. Nappy Roots, has been nominated for the GA Music Awards - XFINITY/Comcast Video of the Year. This is a huge honor for us, and will bring much attention to the 'Get It Right' movement, and what we are all striving for.

For those of you…

Found out my ex husband of 10 years who remarried a girl he moved in with a couple months after our divorce just had a son named Oden. I am happy for them. I truly am. But I can't lie. It hurts. 

I am not where I want to be in life. I am in an emotionless dead end passion less  love less relationship with someone who has a beautiful child with another that I have been called a nanny to.  This shit sucks. Being 37 and living in this world sucks. I mean I wake up so grateful for…

I woke up early this am to find out that my best friend and roommate during and after college's father committed suicide overnight. Here is a pic of me, my best friend and roommate during college, and recently a couple years ago along with another friend of ours and her father in Miami 3 years ago at the GT Bowl with Buzz. My heart aches. LIVE. LAUGH. LOVE. Hug everyone. Tell them you love them. Cherish every moment.…

Countdown to Rock by The Sea.  Though life has its tough day to day battles, I just keep smilin' cause I know 8 days from now.....I will be driving down to Panama City Beach to see some of my favorite artists and even more artists all singing and playing their hearts out for good causes.  I am sooooooo excited.

I wrote this last week and it describes how I love and how that is to me within relational love at my level of loving. How I see it.

--------------------------------------

What I love about you, and us, is that I really AM myself completely. maybe there's been times in the past where I thought I was myself with someone, but as I become more fully present in my own self...I see where it was lacking somehow.

Right now, here, today...I am…

Good morning

The Sickles football team has been given a great opportunity by Allen Sportswear to win free home and away uniforms in a contest in which the school with the most votes wins. We are one of 4 football teams in Florida with a chance. The voting starts today at 12:00pm and lasts for two weeks.

Please go to…

It has been really intense for a lot of people lately. I have had calls from friends that are almost desperate to have peace, love, comfort, etc. Some friends are desperate to have a place to live, a partner to love and be loved by...a job. So many varying things but all come back to the basic need: love.



Loving me is the first step in loving others. It is also the first step in being comfortable…

i try to pretend but reality just keeps getting mixed in.

i tried pulling out what's got me anchored but im too busy filling spaces with figments of my imagination.

i slip diffidently by and away. yes. without notice. 

but that's the…

I found you and I became lost

Lost in your hands

Lost in your mouth

Lost in your breath

I trusted you and I became doubtful

Doubtful that I could hold any higher conviction in happiness

Doubtful that life meant anything without this

Doubtful that I could be more satisfied

I was…

Is so very happy! Everything is great! Always has been. Hugs. Love u guys!

Open windows bring inside

The sweet ambrosia of freshly cut grass

And the choruses of crickets and frogs

Sometimes this life can be so sweet

Twilight on a porch swing with a glass of tea

And a faithful dog laying by my side

And a soundtrack of kids playing down by the creek

Sometimes this life can be so sweet

Sunday supper and then relaxing

In a hammock strung between…

Do you remember what it was like to be little? To be under the ironclad rule of your parents will and thinking that the world would surely end before you got a chance to grow into having rights? I sure do. I recall very vividly the frustration of not being able to make my own choices and the unfairness of my Mothers rules and regulations.

I was often called an inconveniently precocious child. I asked questions constantly, questions like:

 “What is…

Sometimes a day comes along where everything just flows perfectly, sweetly, from start to end.

Yesterday that sweet flow found me.

Nicki and myself coming together, the familiar woods of my homeland, the perfect Spring weather, rock gardens and rock sculptures, Mother Nature's music mixed with the music that we made, a new song written called 'I Release', a hike to the top of the mountain for a beautiful sunset, a timely visit with my Father on the hike back down,…

This semester is my arty semester, my last hurrah before Nursing classes take over my life! I am taking Drawing, Karate, First Aid, Psychology of Human Sexuality and Creative Writing! So in my creative writing class we are required to write a sonnet and a ballad. Here is my ballad and I would love some feedback, criticism, commentary, reviews are welcome! =)

Hello domestic partner

Enjoyed the new stuff and the special Rap appearance.  Thanks again for sharing some grits and songs, making the party a great one.

My head is still flipping through the memories of an incredible weekend at 30A. It was a continuous stream of good energy, good people, good music, good scenery, good, good, good.....

Friday- We left out of Atlanta around 11am. First unscheduled stop was an old, abandoned radio station…

So 2012 is off and running....

Crazy how you blink and 11 days disappear...

A good 11 days it was though. A new music video in the making, some studio time spent for the new record, a free house concert for 2 of my best fans, a charity performance for a local woman in need of support, and of…
