Sex vs. Fab
Of course like so many I’m super excited about Sex In The City 2, but I can’t help but have some of the same trepidation about it that I had when 1 was coming out. Could it possibly live up to the first? Have that same spark and excitement?
And come on are the ladies in Marrakesh?
Can they possibly be as funny as these ladies in Marrakesh? I doubt it. It’s a tall order.
What do you think?

I had a great time at Lady Jane’s last night. It was my first “night out” since my surgery so it was tiring but well worth it to hear my lovely and talented friend Liz Maverick read.
Along with the super Kathryn Smith. So much fun.
One of my favorite CD’s to listen to over and over is Aretha Sings the Blues.
Here’s a little Tuesday blues to brighten you day.Oh and I’d like to welcome my lovely and oh so sweet Sister In Law, Audrey aka The Chaser to the blog world. Stop on over and see this phenomenal woman of god over here and give her a surprise hello. Don’t forget to tell her I sent ya. Thanks!

KwanaWhy You Should Always Check Your Face…proof
I won’t go into the long story again you can read it here but this is video proof of why you should always check your face before you leave the house, car or just walk into the hardware store. And this was my New York debut. I got calls from as far as Staten Island and New Jersey. You’ve been warned. Ugh!!!!

A Fresh Wish for 2010
Happy 2010! Well, we made it here, now what are we gonna do with it? Gah!A fresh year, a fresh decade to start all over again. And to say goodbye to the old crap that didn’t come to pass. I for one will fight to let those things go and work to embrace the new dreams of today.The DD had a fine idea of going back to an old tradition that I had made up and forgotten about after we moved to the new house in the new town a few years ago. When the twins were small we always stayed in on New Year’s Eve and we’d blow up paper bags and make
a wish in them and then pop them for the New Year. Don’t know where I got the idea or why I forgot it, but I was very happy that it made an impression in the now teen DD and she wanted to go back to it.
It was a tough 2009 and it felt good to go back to the old family traditions and start the year on a fresh wish.Cheers to you and wishing all our dreams come true this year.

What’s Jack up to? Jack is chilling ala Jack style this last day of the 2009. But yesterday he got into a bit of trouble when he ran out of the house and over to the neighbors to bark and him and a friend for daring to just be out and minding their own business. Jack would not come home until the neighbor jogged over to my house and into the front door. Good to see Jack is still being Jack. Feisty huh? Sigh.So yep, it’s the last day of the year 2009, heck it’s the last day of the freakin’ decade and still I don’t have a flying car. What up with that? Unbeweaveable. Now there’s a word to keep in this decade, but you know I’ll be pulling it out again in 2010 along with ‘hot mess’. You know I can’t front. Ha! Now I’m bringing sayings from the 90’s. I’m getting my decades all jacked up. Oh snap! Word.Oh well, no matter. Either way cheers to you and I’m wishing you ring out this year with love and peace in your heart and welcome in the New with even more to come back to you.
Peace Out 2009. See Ya wouldn’t want to be Ya! And I’m not ashamed to admit I’m so happy to see you go. Lord knows that’s the truth. Here’s hoping for a better 2010.Best,
KwanaRed Lipstick and a Pink Phone
Thanks so much for all your well wishes on my Good News post. You all are so wonderful. Big props to you!
I’m feeling all 80’s baby today. Young and fresh. And in the 80’s Duran Duran was at the top of my hit list. How much did I want to be a girl in any one of these videos? All red lipstick, pink phones and confidence.
I hope this last week of 2009 is going well for you. Rock it out!

KwanaGood News- Update

Still sore and watching not to bump into things. No big hugs from me… yet, but they will be coming soon. I will have to continue to check things out with Mammos every six months but that is just part of life.Life. Yes! Time to get on with that. What a difference a minute makes. Wow.I wanted to give you all a thanks from the bottom, top, oh just every part of my heart for all of your encouraging words, prayers and positive thoughts… I feel a Happy New Year coming on!With Much Love,KwanaHarlem Holidays
What’s Jack up to? Jack is doing great and recuperating from the excitement of Christmas. He had so much fun with family dropping in and by being totally spoiled by having Nana over with him for a few days so he was sad to see her go back home. I know, Jack me too. Thanks to all of you for your 2 year blogiversary well wishes. Who knew I could blab so much? Thanks again for sticking with me.A few of you were sweet enough to ask about Nana and she sends her holiday best wishes to you! I made sure to head to her place and take a few pictures to share this year’s Harlem Holiday Hallways with you. Here are Nana and my Aunt Cynthia saying Merry Christmas.
Cynthia along with other neighbors are the masters behind the WOW hallways. Can you believe they actually had lights this year? And the wrapping paper on each door is too funny, but I love it. A present in each apartment.
And they say neighbors don’t get together anymore. I think they do. All it takes is a little community care and friendly cooperation. Hmm…I wonder if the government is listening?Best,
KwanaMy Blogiversary and I missed it… Blah
Wow in the midst of all the holiday hoopla and my own recuperating I missed my own 2 year blog anniversary which was December 23rd. So better late than never I’m saying Happy Blogiversary to me!Thank you all so much for sticking with me these past 2 years. I’m so grateful that words really can’t explain it. Your kindness, support and blog friendships have meant so much to me as I continue my road to publication.Jack, the spoiled dog that he is, would also like to thank you for all the kind words even when he’s being just awful. You all truly are special to us..jpg)
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and I wish you all the best in 2010. I’m hoping for good health, joy, love, peace and prosperity for all of us.Words will be light on the blog with a few pics or videos until the new year. I will try and post my hot mess snow video. Yikes!Please feel free to stop by roam a bit and comment. You know I love to hear from you. But please also enjoy this time with family and friends and do a little relaxing yourself.Thanks so much.All the best,KwanaP.S. The above pic of Jack from the very first post here.
Merry Christmas!
The Yule Log will be burning in the virtual fireplace today and spirits will be high. Wishing a wonderful Christmas day to you and yours from Me, The DH, The Dear Twins and Jack.
And once more for the road…
Much love,
Kwana
