It's A Wrap!

Well Christmas is over and we are racing to 2018.  So, I thought I would wrap up a few things before I kick 2017 to the curb and jump on to the New Year with hope.

Secrets from Santa

Well It's that time of year where The 5by5 Podcast gets all Christmasy on ya.  You all know Christmas is my most favorite time of the year.  I love good Christmas music and the spirit of the holiday.  So, we start this week doing Christmas themed shows. Merry Christmas!!

Fox Host Says No To A Black Santa Claus

Although, I will give Megyn Kelly some room to say that St. Nicholas was white.  Even though he is an imaginary made up person.  I have to draw a line when she says Jesus was too. 

All this came out a couple of days ago when the Kelly Files host shared her views on an article written by Aisha Harris.  Ms. Harris' article share HER views on how she processed all the images of Santa Claus when she was a little kid.  But, in Fox News form, Megyn Kelly had to add her uninformed 2 cents. Listen in to the latest edition of Real Talk as I discuss my personal view on the subject.  I also share a true story from a local Subway, Beyonce's newly dropped album and the ladies of SWV are going to give us life on their new WEtv reality show. 

Holidays, Blood and Ceelo

I am such a huge Christmas Holiday Fan.  I love the holiday.  I love the spirit of the season.  But, I am not sure I am quite ready for it.  It has been a difficult year for my family and I.  We have dealt with severe health problems, financial worries and typical life dramas. So,hopefully,  this year's cheer will bring us at least a month of peace.  Although, I love the upcoming holiday celebrations and fanfare. I do not know if I am ready for the coming rush.  I mean we rush through Thanksgiving like it doesn't really exist.  Today while driving about I actually saw Christmas lights and trees up.  Now, these people may just be trying to get a head start.  Walmart has had their Christmas decor shop up since September.  I used to work retail and we also started gearing up for Christmas at the end of September.  But, if you work in retail you have to know that you will not be seeing much of your family during the holidays.  Like it or not.  It's just the way it is. Recently, in the news, I saw where KMart is not closing at all on Thanksgiving this year.  But, if you think for a moment the theaters open up at night on TG.  All of the stores are opening at least by midnight.  Although, I see why people are complaining. But, I don't here Nurses or Doctors complaining.  I work in the health care industry too.  And guess what we aren't closed either.  I think I am a little biased.  But, I want to relish the moments with my family.   I think this year I am going to volunteer.  I want to bring a little joy in some lives.

A Little Christmas Fun

Merry Christmas to all my friends, fans and followers.  I made this video years ago.  I was going through a Destiny's Child phase.  Besides the music, some of the panels are hilarious. 

I wish you all the best this Christmas Season!!
