Birthday Card!

This is the envelope I made. That Cherry is scented.

I got all this at Jo anns on sale very cool I think.

So on of my homies had a birthday on Saturday. She is a wonderful 25 years of age. She and planned a spa and dinner day for all her friends to join her. I was not able to participate in these activities but met them at dinner to give her the card that I made for her. I dusted off the craft skills and started the creative tank of ideas again. Well I turned our pretty good and she like it so that was all that matter to me. Glad you enjoy your birthday homie. YEYY!

No Colored Allowed



Image found here

Alright! I just read this article that kinda made sick and sad at the same time. This guy in Augusta, Ga Wants to start a leauge based on color and culture and I quote the article "Only players that are natural born United States citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league," Now that is just a slap in the face. I know our black Men are talented but not all of them can play a sport and guess what other cultures can play too, even the white guys. So what message is that sending out but "No Colored Allowed" Read it for your self and let me know what you think.

BASKETBALL LEAGUE FOR WHITE AMERICANS

A new professional basketball league boasting rosters made up exclusively of white Americans has its eyes set on Augusta, but the team isn't receiving a warm welcome. The All-American Basketball Alliance announced in a news release Sunday evening that it intends to start its inaugural season in June and hopes Augusta will be one of 12 cities with a team.

Here is another link I found that just seems a little more friendly and doesn't try to isolate people on purpose.

Hey Doris, So Happy to see you!!!!

Gail, Doris and Me

My Teacher from SCAD was in town last weekend for a weaver's guild workshop. I was excited to see her and catch up. She was one of my favorite teachers at SCAD. It seems like the new fibers building is loved by all. Well I expressed to her how much I miss being in a lab and doing my natural dyeing. ( Ahhhhhhh one day I will return Dye pots) So she introduced me and was apparently talking about me( it was good!) to all her weaver friends and they were so excited to find out that I did natural dyeing because they play with it too. So I hope they invite me to do some workshops. That would be a lot of fun.

More Fun With Mama

Well the next day after not getting my eyebrows arched at the spa we went to 7day nails and spa and I got an excellent eyebrow arch from a girl name Vee she was so nice. I even convince my mom to get hers done too. It was difficult because she was so reluctant. But I am glad she did. We had a fun time. So guess where I am going to get my nails( yeah I am going to do this more often), pedicure and eyebrows done. 7 day nails and spa yea!!!!!!! And it is down the street from my houseOh did I mention I got my hair done. OOps!

We went to lunch on Saturday with my sister and I had the Shrimp Scampi at Olive Garden. It was fantastic. I must say we had the funnest girl time ever. Can't until we visit my sister in Texas more girl time fun!
