Sunday Mind Dump (through the eyes of the PW)!


Its been like forever since I did a Sunday Mind Dump. But there is a lot going on so I have plenty to share.

1) My newest obsession is all things related to Fashion. Its actually not new, but its been a while since I have indulged in that particular passion. I went to school for Fashion Merchandising after high school and in my younger days I dreamed of becoming a buyer for a major dept. store like Macy's in New York (back then that was the only Macy's you thought of when someone said Macy's...lol).

2) I've already started packing (at least mentally in my head for the Nashville trip). Hence the sudden surge in shoe and clothing purchase.

3) The week I come back from Nashville I will be speaking at our Annual Women's Day celebration. Then that afternoon we will head over to a local school in Norfolk to hear a gospel group in concert. The concert is being sponsored by WABC and our beautiful daughters Nicki and Quisha will be the opening act for the event before the Scott's get up to sing!

4) It still looks like our trip to Florida is a go, not just for my friends marriage renewal but our niece from Alabama who was recently crowned Miss.Outstanding Teen Alabama 2011 will be in Florida for the Miss Teen America pageant!

5) And just in case you missed it I will be celebrating the big 47 in a few weeks. I decided to have a girls get together at my mom's home. I'm actually shocked at the fact that its so close. I need to get my planning butt in gear!

6) To get in the spirit of the occasion (whose theme just happens to be "Princess And The Frog" ) Nicki and I picked up the Disney movie this afternoon for inspiration. We also picked up Tangled which was allusive on Saturday, which lead to this particular purchase. Which led us back to Target today when the very same shoes went on sale (so my $29.99 shoes end up costing me $19.99).

7) Nicki will be heading to NY soon. She decided to get her hair braided this past week, which took six hours by the way and according to her hurt (guess I will stick to my own hair or get extensions if I want to whip my hair back and forth....lol ). She has already warned me that I would not be able to handle it (especially with my headaches). She did this so that she would not have to worry about upkeep while on her mini vacation. And since she is much cuter then her mom, I thought I would feature her as part of my first ever Sunday Best! Quisha wasn't with us today but she promised to let me take pics of her shoes in the future.

8) Honestly I could not update with a fashion post everyday like some of these girls do (even if I had somewhere to go and had something cute to wear). Its just too much pressure (it took way to long to come up with my outfit today). And frankly as much as I love fashion its just not that serious (at least for me). Frankly the real fashion guru in our house is my husband. The man has more accessories then I do (not to mention shoes, suits, shirts and ties...lol).

9) Speaking of Marc.... I'm so proud of the messages Marc has been speaking on the last few weeks. He is really committed to diversity in our church and his messages have been reflective of that. Today he talked about The All Inclusive Church! The all inclusive church is a hospital for sinners and not a museum for saints! The all inclusive church doesn't let tradition get in the way of the truth of God's word. The all inclusive church has everything to do with Jesus Christ!

10) We had a new member join today, and three children who had not been to WABC in a while came back today because they said they had missed church and especially children's church. You don't know what that did for my heart and Marc was cheesing when they came in. Now that's what church is really about!
