As I'm looking over the lectionary for the coming weeks in preparation for a sermon I have to do soon, I am looking at Joel 2:23-32 and really want to preach on the topic, "But when, God?"

This is my life for the rest of my life… Approaching six months since my cancer removal surgery!

“I am quickly approaching six months post surgery. What that means is I am also back into the swing of routine doctor visits, bloodwork, follow ups, calendar & phone call reminders (whether human or automated), scans, and more follow ups. This morning, my phone rang with another automated reminder.”

I need to find somewhere to donate these books I no longer want/need!! Anyone know of any place in metro Atlanta?!

Thirteen years ago TODAY I preached my initial/trial sermon, leading to me being licensed to preach in the AME Church.

Oh how so much has happened in such a short time! So much has changed since this day! Much more is to come!

Honored. Surprised. Grateful.

I'm a girl in a world in which
My only job is to marry rich
My father has no sons so I'm the one
Who has to social climb for one
So I'm the oldest and the wittiest and the gossip in
New York City is insidious
And Alexander is penniless
Ha! That doesn't mean I want him any less

I wrote the dedication and acknowledgements for the Faith Deconstruction book today! Whew!!

You all have let me down and I feel some kind of way about it. No one, I mean NO ONE said anything to me about The Good Doctor!! I’m almost done with the first season and I am INVESTED!! I’m disappointed in each and every one of you!!! #dobetter

I miss French fries.

I need/want to get close/near some water and write!!

I hate cancer.

I am grateful for life. But, I hate cancer and how my life has had to shift and adjust, and the compromises I’ve had to make since I became aware that it was in my body.

Plans and goals have had to change. My body has been changed. My focus has been interrupted. And the emotions!

If Jamal Roberts doesn’t do a cover of Her Heart on his debut album, then I know something. #weneedit

I’m so ready to get back in the gym!

Some of yall aren’t members of churches, you’re members of institutions with cultish tendencies. The only reason you’re there is because you like what being a member means for you socially. #thatisall #behonestwithyourself #tellthetruth
