Status Change

As of a few minutes ago, it's official, I am once again single. They, whoever they are, say some are just not meant to have someone by their side. I'm starting to believe I am one of the permanant single.

Death


Death? Have you ever thought how much different things will be for you? Lay down in a quiet room. Stay still and hold your breathe for as long as you can manage. While doing this imagine YOU will never see anything ever again for however many days this world goes on but DARKNESS. YOU will never smell another smell. YOU will never hear another sound. YOU will never speak another word. YOU will never feel another thing or person. Will you still be able to feel when your flesh dries up? Will you still be able to feel when your bones turns to dust? Will it hurt?
Now, even though you WILL die one day, according to what you believe in will determine where your soul will go for the rest of the days. Unless, by some twist of fate, your belief was WRONG.

To Art or Not to Art

I have heard by several people that my art, as in drawings, are interesting, odd and even kewl. They all said they liked them. A female friend of mine a little while back suggested that I frame them and post to sell. Everyone knows the artist is their worst critic, so I am going to do a small experiment via Facebook to see if anyone even likes my art by their "Likes" and "Comments". Every week for a short period of time, I am going to change my profile picture to yet another one of my drawings. Yet, my Facebook friends will not know what I am doing. I will keep you updated on how this experiment plays out.

D.E. of a D.W.

Yesterday was an eventful day. It started out like "the new norm". I woke up to the other side of my bed empty, my man got a call to go to work. After grabbing my phone, cigs, lighter, and keys, I headed to and rode the elevator down three floors to my father's apartment. After several knocks on my father's door at the right time, my dad had his tv blaring so I had to knock in the few seconds the tv when silent, I walked in to tell my father happy birthday. It's not everyday your father turns 71 and that's only if you are blessed with having your father still on this earth when he turns this age. Surprisingly this year he didn't remind me how today was the day Elvis died. Yet my father believes he is still alive or at the very least lived his life out to a respectful age behind closed doors and that it wasn't Elvis that made it big but his very own identical twin brother Arron.
Upon returning back to my own apartment I received a couple phone calls  from one of my older brothers. It was already planned not to eat today because my man's family invited us out to a local restaurant to celebrate several of their family birthdays all in one. I must admit soon after my man returned back home from work, three hours before due at the restaurant, we broke and split a bag of microwave popcorn.
Time soon came about where we got picked up by a friend and all the dinner party gathered over at my man's sisters house, then the restaurant. Only thing that would of made it better was if my children were there along side the rest of the 12 member party.
I got to meet my man's brother for the first time along with his wife and their two adorable little girls. Other than myself there was also my man, my man's sister, her husband and child, close friend and her husband and child. Many of pictures were taken by my man to remember this day. IT WAS A GOOD DAY!!!

D.E. of a D.W. Day 9


Day 9, today thus far I did the cleaning the place I live thing, ran some virus scans, now I have nothing to do but think. That can be as entertaining as it can be dangerous. In two days my father will turn 71 years young.
When I started this Daily Entries of a Determined Woman I said I would pick a topic a day to speak about. As you can see that is not working out very well. Heck not only do I not pick a topic I sometimes even skip days. I think it has a lot to do with the fact I do not like writing when the possiability of someone reading what I am writing before I get it wrote. Heck only reason why I am typing write now is because my guy unfortunally has a massive tooth ache and is currently laying down. I do pray he gets better soon for his health sake.

D.E. of a D.W. Day 8

I would like to say I missed Day 7 because of some special thing that kept me busy all day but to be honest I slept all day. Nothing really going on today either, well not for me. My oldest did his first day at orientation for college today. Wow! I actually have a kid going to college. You see, while growing up their were high hopes that I would be the first in the family to go to college. My life didn't work out that way but I am very glad and proud that my son was the first, at least on my side of the family, to go to college.

D.E. of a D.W. Day 6 ---8/11/2012

Allow me to say that there was no day 5 simply because I wasn't feeling well enough to write or in this case type. Saying how today has been almost uneventful I almost didn't even write this little bit.

D.E. of a D.W. Day 4


I would like to start out by saying yesterday after I posted my blog. My day got busy. First, my daughter called  and said she was on her way to come get me. She wanted someone to run around with while she did some errands. Once she got here she asked me to do the driving. I gladly did the driving. I drove her first to a couple places for possiable work. Then after a short stop at her dads house to pick up her brother, my youngest son, we all went clothes/school shopping. Second, my oldest came over for about an half hour. I was thrilled to see all three of my kids in the same day again.
Today my daughter and youngest son started another year of school. My daughter is a senior and my youngest son is a freshman. Come Monday, my oldest will become the first on my side of the family to attend college.

D.E. of a D.W. Day 3


Like most people out there that have anyway of connecting to the internet, I have a Facebook account. Yesterday, on here, I mentioned how it was a month since my friend's departure of his life. Thanks to Facebook, because I cannot bring myself to delete people off my friend's list that has passed on, today I will be mentioning yet another friend who has passed. This friend was also male. He was a father. He was a husband. He was a son. He was a dear friend. Though this past July 4th was the 2nd anniversary of his death, today he would of been celebrating his 43rd year of life.
On the positive side once again, today is also one of my sister-in-laws birthday.

Daily Entries of a Determined Woman Day 2


Today, sadly marks my friend's one month departure from life. On the positive side, it is also my nephew, along with a friend's child, celebrates another age of their lives.
Today has been a bit different from the beginning. First, I woke up at a decent hour. Now, my man got called in to work. Whether it be just for today or longer is still undetermined.
My feelings for my man are strong and true but truth be told I welcome this time apart.

Daily Entries of a Determined Woman


Writing is a hobby of mine. Though, by reading the post posted upon this blog, you would never be able to tell. When this blog was made my knowledge was at a zero level of understanding any of the things that should be done in order to obtain regular flow of new viewers and fans. Searching around the web most say, "have a theme based blog". How about the Daily Entries of a Determined Woman. What would my main focus be on: My thoughts of the day, My daily struggles, in hopes one day my dream of becoming a paid writer comes true.
At the age of fourteen, I entered a poetry contest, from the back of some magazine my mother had laying around the house. That poem, along with others along the years, are now in six different anathology books. Along with obtaining my dream, one of my side goals is to locate those six anathology books and purchase them.
As the years passed along with writing poetry, I ventured into writing stories. After hearing for many of years how well I was at writing from close friends and family, I was told by a complete stranger via a social site about Ebooks. Now, I have six Ebooks up for viewing and/or buying:

BluThunder, My Friend

In four days from now I will have to somehow handle knowning you have been gone for a month. That day a month ago, I read the status, placed by a friend, that you had passed. So many memories of you I am able to recall. From our first meeting to just days before your passing.  How we came to date each other, for a short period of time, by a couple of our friends saying, "You like him, He likes you, now your dating." We were on the step off the sidewalk sitting under the night sky. How one night about a month before your passing, you walked me home even though it was close to midnight and the fact we lived on opposite sides of town. I will miss that smile you was always able to place upon my face. Yes, I will smile again for other people and reasons, just not the same as the one I smiled for you. You once told me how you came to be named BluThunder. How when you was born your mother looked out of the window and saw Blue Thunder. I couldn't image it until the day of your burial. On that day even though the skies were a vibrant blue, thunder was also in the skies. As if you announced your passing to all. I will miss you my dear friend and have no fear YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!

Things are looking up.

It has been a while since I have posted anything on here so allow me to catch you up. I'm now in a relationship. We have been dating for a little over a month now. A close friend passed away. In five days it will be a month since he passed. Soon I will be moving into another apartment but one that is a little better than this one. I still struggle each day to get new viewers to view my Ebooks in hopes that one day they will start selling.

A place you can read the full first chapter of my Ebook, The Wearers
