last day of school



(Deion, Kameron, Brandon & Skyler (photobombed it at the bottom)

Where did the school year go?

It feels like the school year just started a few weeks ago.

Today is the last day of the school year!!!

It was an interesting year in my house. The kids were all in their milestone grades. Brandon (7) has completed the 1st grade. He was on the Honor Roll and was named Student of the Month for the month of April for his school. Kameron (11) has completed the 6th grade. It was his first year of middle school. He made the Honor Roll for most of the year and balanced playing football last fall. Honestly, I didn't know how he'd handle the workload from his classes and practice but he got it done. Deion (14) completed his freshman year in high school. While he didn't make the Honor Roll, he adjusted to high school quicker than I thought he would. I need to re-direct his focus from girls to working harder in the classroom. He will do better next year!

The last day of school brings back many memories for me. But things are so different for these kids. We would leave school for the summer and you wouldn't see most of your friends until school started again. Nowadays with technology, these kids will keep in touch with their friends on a daily basis.

Remember when you went to camp for the summer back in the days??? You did that for a week or two and it was dope. My kids will go to summer camp every day this summer. It's fun for them but it doesn't sound like as much fun as we had.

Then...we always explored that sacred place back in our day...it was called OUTSIDE. There was nothing like being outside for HOURS at a time. Sometimes I'll send my kids outside to play in the yard only for them to come back inside 15 mins later for water or a popsicle.

There was always a big FIGHT at school on the last day of school. You could fight and get away with it because you probably wasn't going to get suspended...unless you got caught. The fight always started with somebody saying something like "I don't like _____. I've been wanting to beat her up all year. Tell her that I'm gonna get her on the last day of school." Somebody would relay the message and it'd go from there. There was always somebody trying to be Don King and they'd hype the fight up. I remember 2 girls who fought on the last day of 8th grade. I told myself that I had to see that fight because they were fighting over a boy. Well, they fought after school on the last day. Fists and hair was flying. Next thing that I know...a bra comes off and we get a glimpse of one girl's breasts!!! She was one of the finest girls in the school. And when I saw her breasts, I felt like I had just witnessed one of the best things ever!!!

Thankfully, there will be no fights at their schools tomorrow. And that's a good thing!

muzikmonday vol 2



MuzikMonday...

here are a few joints that I heard this week while listening to Pandora


Fool for You - Cee Lo Green featuring Melanie Fiona


I was very late on finding out how dope Melanie Fiona was. She can SING. I've been rocking with Cee Lo since he and Goodie Mob broke on the music scene in the mid 90s. Very deep song that most people can relate to. We've all been a fool for someone. I know I have. And that's not always a bad thing






Don't You Have A Man - Drake featuring Little Brother & Dwele


I'm not a fan of Drake. Never been. But this is my favorite joint from here. This dropped in like 2007. Little Brother, Phonte and Pooh, was still a group at the time. All 3 of the fellas provide dope bars as well as a nice hook from Dwele.






What Are We Doing - Robert Glasper Experiment featuring Brandy


This joint bangs. Period. I was pleasantly surprised to hear Brandy sound this good






Slippin - DMX


I miss THIS DMX







Can You Stand the Rain - New Edition


Classic!!!!

8 things women just don't do anymore (that they should!)


I found the following article the other day on my boy OJ's Facebook page. It was written by Tara Carr. I think she did a remarkable job conveying the the issues of today. If you read this and say "what about the things that men don't do...then you've missed the point."

There was a time when a woman's greatest duty and achievement was taking care of her man. The women of the 2003 movie Mona Lisa Smile were a great example of what women were essentially breed to do. They went to college, but they didn't really plan on using their degrees (or even graduating in some cases). The plan was to get married as soon as possible and put those Home Ec skills to good use!

But today's breed of women is certainly a different one. Many historical events have lead to the evolution of the female role and Suzy Homemaker is now Ms. Independent. But just because certain "old-fashioned" ways have been phased out, doesn't mean they should be completely retired. You can still have your career and your own mind and what not, but maybe there are a few things that women just don't do anymore, that they should!

So what do you think? What is something women just don't do anymore that they should?


Cook

Cook

Some women these days don't cook! Back in the day, every woman had to take home economics. It was mandatory. It pretty much taught you how to be a wife. You learned how to cook, clean, sew, polish silver, host a dinner party, and help your man get a promotion! Nowadays, women only know how to cook if someone took the time to teach them how to cook. But if you're 20-something (or older) and still don't know how to cook, you better get started on some Pinterest meals! Start with the easy stuff and work your way up. You at least need to know how to make two or three meals for your man that he will love.

Clean


Clean

Some people are slobs and some are neat freaks and some are somewhere in between. But a lot of women don't really know how to "keep house". A lot of people nowadays didn't even have chores growing up. But even the ones who did have chores growing up feel like they're "grown" now and don't have to do that anymore. Well you do! And while your husband/boyfriend should be able to pick up after himself, as the woman of the house, you should be able to maintain a clean house.

Fix his plate

Fix his plate

Women across the country at cookouts and family reunions and holidays can now be heard saying "He can fix his own plate... Ain't nothin' wrong with his legs..." (with an eye roll). That is not right ladies! You should honor your man by fixing his plate. You don't necessarily have to do it every single time he eats (because seriously, there's nothing wrong with his legs), but at least do it when you are in public as a sign of respect. And no, it's not demeaning. Have a servant's heart. Respect and honor him and he should return the favor.

Watch your mouth


Watch your mouth

Women these days curse way too much! It used to be illegal to curse in public (it technically still may be in some places). And "a lady" didn't curse. Nowadays, we're all just calling each other b*****s and h**s like it's no big deal - like it's a compliment! And some women curse like a sailor. That is just not attractive. Try to refrain from cursing, especially in certain situations - like maybe church, class, in front of his new boss, etc. Have some class!

Dish out compliments

Dish out compliments

Women of the 1950s TV sitcoms were quick to compliment their man. But nowadays women just want to soak up all the compliments. But the truth is, it should go both ways. If anything, men should receive way more compliments than women because they are way more sensitive and insecure than they let on. Try to increase the number of compliments you dish out each day. Whatever you're doing now, it's probably not enough.

Keep yourself up

Keep yourself up

Women used to really focus on "keeping themselves up" and always "looking presentable". Always. At all times. There was no walking out in public with your hair wrapped or in curlers. And there definitely was no being seen in public in sweats (or the 1950s equivalent). Nowadays, women are so comfortable and lax that they'll just go out looking any kind of way and don't really invest effort in maintaining their bodies in general. Work out. Eat healthy. Look presentable. Take care of yourself. You are a reflection of your man. Make him look good!

Dress up for dates

Dress up for dates

Just because you've been in a relationship for awhile now doesn't mean you don't have to take the time to look nice when you go out together. Date night should be just as exciting as a first date! Women used to put forth just as much effort regardless of if it was a new suitor or her husband of twenty years. Keep doing what you did to get him to keep him! He will definitely notice and appreciate the extra effort.

Anticipate his needs

Anticipate his needs

You should be so in tune with your man that you know what he's thinking before he thinks it. You should know what he wants and needs before he even asks. Women used to be on point when it came to this one! They would have a cold beer waiting, a cigar, and dinner on the table. She would take his hat and coat before he could even get in the door good! But now, women tend to ignore the signs and just wait on him to ask (and then complain about it!). Don't do that. Try to anticipate his wants and needs. Be that help meet that he needs. As his woman, you should make him better.
