I Lost My Mojo Baby!
Somewhere between Sunday and last night I must have come across Dr. Evil because it seems me and my Mojo have parted ways.
So now I’m on a mission… to get my mojo back.
Wish me luck!

Back on the Chain Gang
DH is off to work and the kids are off to camp. I now have coffee in hand and am about to hit this manuscript with the red pen, again. I’m feeling kinda Chrissie Hynde today.
Hope your time on the chain gang isn’t too hot today.

Looking Good in a Buffalo Stance

It’s Friday the 13th and I’ll smile Anyway
It’s Friday… And it’s a bittersweet one. Colleges have been chosen, two separate ones, a few hours away and today is the last day of High School Classes for my Dear Twins. I have to admit, I kind of want to cry. Of course I knew this day was coming but in September it seemed still pretty far off. Boy was I wrong. I should have known, Time runs like a freight train out of control and picking up speed.
The twins will do volunteer work for the next month before graduation in June. I’m sure the Summer will go by quicker than I want and before long I’ll be hugging both and in a fit of tears as I say goodbye at college. But, in the meantime I’ll sing this silly song and just pretend it’s another normal Friday.

Animal on Repeat
So I heard this song three no maybe it was four times today while running around with the dear teen twins to and from practices and in and out of malls. I’m thinking the New York D-Jays musta had it on a loop this weekend. So for that I’m inviting you into my world. Welcome.

I can’t wait to see this documentary on New York Times Photographer Bill Cunningham. His On The Street scenes are works of art.
Happy Friday!

Fashionista Can Jump
I love this fun video of Vogue’s Hamish Bowles and New York Knick Amar’e Stoudemire in a game of hoops (well sort of hoops).
Enjoy.

Maybe Monday
So I’m doing yet another DD dance run this weekend and this song comes on the radio with just about the best talkie intro I’ve ever heard. It’s a story and a half all at the start of a song.
“…as I just stood there trying to maintain…myself.” Love that!
Enjoy.
Happy Monday!

What Are Words?
He captured our hearts with his heartbreaking story but didn’t make it to the top 24 which stunned so many.
But no matter because Chris Medina is already out doing good and bringing us to tears with his first single What Are Words and part of the proceeds go to a fund to care for his fiancée Juliana. You can purchase What Are Words on ITunes. This one is a tearjerker. I wish there could be a happy ending here somehow.

The Waiting…
Lately, in my house with college apps having been out for a while for the dear twins and us having gotten some good and not good news from different places we are all going a bit nutty around here. We’re still waiting to hear from some top choices for both kids. Still stressed over how it will all play out come September and I won’t get into the stress the DH and I feel over how it will work out financially. I’m just living on it will.
To top it off I have a book out on submission that has been out forever but that’s just how it goes in publishing. No news is no news or just a no and you have to move on. But I still can’t help constantly checking my emails. See I’m not one to compartmentalize and put things in the back of my mind. Everything stays right of front talking up too much space.
All that said I woke up with morning and this song popped into my head. Good for a writer and a high school senior. Enjoy.
Best,
Kwana
