Another Year

My goodness! 2017 is upon us and I have been slacking on this blog thing. I have good reasoning for that though. Grad school, new job, new man just new life all together has been keeping me occupied and pressed for time. This year has been a great one! I set out on a journey, finished some projects, started some others and now I am ready for the next chapter in my life.

Let us give me a hand clap for a 3.8GPA in grad school 12 credit hours down all A's..... got my mojo back.

Trip wise- I went to the Grand Canyon, took my sister on her first plane ride and locomotive ride- check us out.














I also went on my first cruise with the family- check us out- Carnival Freedom!!!












Anddd.. Chantel's got a man at home (channeling my inner 90's song list) Chante Moore.... And he's so good to me! 
That was unexpected- 

The holidays this year have been blissfully wonderful. The entire family knows who he is and he just fits. He attends church weekly with me- why? Because if it's important to me- it' s important to him (words out of his mouth) IT's right for the first time. If I get one more when ya'll getting married- I ain't gone do nothing lol.... I am just going to blush as I have been doing every other time. But for the first time I will not be alone on new year's away from my S.O or waiting on him to return from his "new years" partying, entertaining "his friends" We will be together. I am eternally grateful that God has given me the chance and the opportunity to get to know him. So my wish list/bucket list/vision board/goals for 2017 will be interesting.... let the thinking begin.

Single But Ready: Greater is Coming

So I am up doing some grass roots research into pursuing some passions of mine... hair and fashion.  While texting a guy who is interested in me. And it hit me. I am ready to date again! Finally. Lordt I thought I was going to be stuck in that negative stage forever! By the way the title of this post is inspired by a podcast that I listened to- that helped get me through entitled: Single But READY.. check it out it is eye opening. So if you read some of my post from the August/September period you will note the harping of the breakup and my efforts to rebound date. Well I never wrote about my perspective of trying to rebound date. Let us just say it was horrible. I truly do not recommend trying to rebound date, while being celibate and on the tail ends of a heartbreak... Nothing good comes from Nazareth right? HA.. ok. Basically as I sat here thinking back to that time period I was sooo negative. Negative Nancy welcome to the party. These guys were showing genuine interest in m...

About Time! Queening Exponentially

I know that I am about 2 weeks late... but I am working full time and pursuing a Master's so be patient! Miss USA 2016  is exponentially several degrees above awesome. Let us take a moment to discuss what makes her awesome. 1. She is Black- unapologetic. Most definitely oozing #BlackGirlMagic the definition of #BlackExcellence and that melanin is definitely popping. I wonder what color she wears> definitely not any shade that Neutorgena offers (No Shade) but not everyone has cool, orange or yellow undertones.... some of US have prominent red undertones!!! I digress.... Handclap to the makeup artist and creators out there that cater to ALL SHADES of BLACK. 2. Member of the US Army- Patriot and passionate about it. Some of my people are not the most supportive of African Americans fighting for a country that chose to enslave and continues to mentally enslave us as a people. My goodness! Cut the girl some slack- she has chosen to sacrifice her life for others- which is t...
