"Is the Sky Really Falling"
February 28th 2008 17:09
My son played a sound bit for a song by a rap artist in which the main chorus was the words, “I’m a hustling, hustling”, repeated over and over before the song moved into a number of explanations /examples of the goal to achieve success. Well without all the expletives, but definitely the work---I have been “hustling”. The great thing about it is I don’t mind striving, if I know where I’m going and I actually enjoy the process. I’ve had my stint with trying to download email programs on a Mac---so far no good. I’ve been using the simple and basic (I mean really basic!!) email program that comes with my web hosting package. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade---and make it strong. So out went the basic emails, and it worked ok, there was a gracious response.
Now I must thank Queen Fullmoon a local Detroit Loctician (fullmoon6earth@hotmail.com), for being the Detroit connection of “L.B. Soc”…for locs, braids & more and “TOPAZ” a shower cap. People in Detroit can purchase Denise Reed products from her and save the shipping/handling cost, but you will have to pay retail. In Wilmington, DE there is Sandy of Zelda’s Hair Clinic, and in Brooklyn its Tabeel Salon & Gift Shop, to theses buyers I say thank you---you help me grow. Just recently I got a great invite from a fellow unique hair care product designer, Deon Leftenant (www.locksdown.com), who is also is doing it up with creative and colorful hair care maintenance products. I’ve been noticing that there is a heightened interest in creating products to be nice to our hair. Loved your site Deon, and hope I can join your Facebook community, as soon as I learn how (smile)! Great success to you, there is definitely a need for what we both create.
When I think of creativity, I feel a little sad for my husband and his creative cooking streak. While I am downstairs sewing and filling orders for the business, he stands in as chief cook. Now I know men love their big screen tv’s, but my man also loves the humongous Frigidare he purchased just about eighteen months ago. Of course he loves it, that’s where he keeps all the special fresh ingredients for the great meals he cooks. Well it went down the first week in February---just when he had laid in all his staples for the upcoming football “Combine” eekkkk!, distaster. No problem, call the service center and the store where we purchased this wonderful defrosting giant, Lowes, who then hooks us up with an authorized service center. From here things started going downhill for my husband and his relationship with and I quote, “the best refridigerator in the world”. First the authorized service representative tells him they do not do repairs in Detroit, and suggest we find someone else to fix the appliance. When my husband assures them that he paid an extra $199. for an extended warranty on this appliance, and resort to reporting them to Lowes they change their story and make the house call. To make a long story short, two weeks later, three weeks of groceries ruined, and still the appliance doesn’t work---the best refridigerator is no longer that great and I’ve lost 4 pounds.
He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth on the LORD, happy is he. Proverbs 16:20
