I woke up to snow showers this morning, and boy I was not ready for this. Not only is it cold, but it’s that wet snow that turns to slush. If it was powdered snow then I could deal with that a little better. I just don’t know why it has to snow right now, ughhh! Here is a picture of the snow in the back yard, and my dog wondering where the heck it came from lol.

So since it is cold and drear, and the snow has yet to stop canvasing the ground, I’m just going to watch a good movie while I get some work done. Hey, I might even put together another ebook. For those of you experiencing your own winter wonderlands, be safe and stay warm.

Hey guys, I received a coupon for Google Adsense in the mail a day or so ago and I can’t use it. It is worth $100 up until 12/04/09 and then after that it is worth $75 and good until 12/31/09. If you are interested let me know through a comment or you can email me at latoya@theentrepreneurdiva.com Who ever is interested (first come first serve) I will send a scanned coupon image via email that will have the coupon code on it. I would rather do it that way so that I don’t make a mistake sending you the code.

Now something that I want you to be aware of is, the reason that I could not use the coupon is because when I attempted it said that my account was too old. So I think this coupon is to be use with new accounts or one that were recently set up. So once again, just let me know if you are interested.

On November 8th,  I experienced one of the most terrifying and painful experience that I had ever gone through. I was awaken at 3am by my mother screaming that my cousin had been shot and I needed to get to the hospital. Not knowing what to expect I was praying for the best. Once there, I couldn’t believe the scene. Armed officers, family and friends in tears, and at that very moment my heart stopped. I could no longer hear the commotion of the busy emergency room sort of like when you ears are of full of water when swimming. My body when numb as I saw the looks and the tears of my family members. Could this really be happening!?

For hours we waited looking for any glimpse of hope that this piece to our family puzzle would pull through. But he didn’t. And from that point on things became more real than I ever imagined.

How did this happen?

He was killed by a police officer in a night club. And truth be told, I want to see justice done! And as a family we have come together and we are going to make this a reality.

So I wanted to share with you what was going on in my life and why I have not been posting as much lately. I will eventually get back on track, but right now my family has my full attention. But that does not mean that I will completely stop posting, it just means that it will not be as often.

I hope you guys can understand where I am coming from, and as always I will keep it real with you guys.

I hate to say it, but I was disappointed at last year’s awards and I was definitely disappointed with this year’s awards. I don’t know why it seems as though it get’s worse every year. After watching it I was actually mad that I spent my time on it. I mean, don’t get me wrong I love seeing artist win awards for their hard work, but the definition of “hip hop” has definitely changed.

What I can say that I did like about it is that Ice Cube was finally being honored for his years of hard work. He is an artist that has withstood the test of time going from the music scene to on screen. I truly believed that he deserved to be honored. Other than that, I felt that me watching it was a waste of time. Is it just me?

Oh, and did you see Tiny’s new hair color? I never thought that she would go red, so I think it will take me a minute to get use to it. But I personally think she looked better with the blonde. Ok now, I’m not going to start talking about people because I would be picking at people forever lol. But I don’t think I will be looking forward to watching the awards next year =(

First off, let me start by saying “who has enough time on their hands to sit at home and make a home made flying saucer?” I mean shouldn’t you be somewhere working to support your family? And not only that who actually comes up with that type of idea. I just find it very strange. I’m mean, can anyone tell me what the point of this “experimental aircraft” was?

Now as for the 6 year old boy that they thought was missing, he is at home safe. But my problem with this is the possibilities of what could have happened to this little boy. This little boy could have seriously been injured. And as a parent you are suppose to protect your children from ANYTHING that can potentially be dangerous to them, and this boy’s parents failed to do this.

Have you ever gone to a website that may have had a quality product but you took one look at the horrendous graphics and simply clicked out of your screen? Now I know good and well that I am not the only one that has done that. Now I understand that you guys may not be graphic designers and all but the designs on your websites do affect first impressions.

If you like to play around with your own graphics but can afford software like Photoshop, I have a free alternative for you here. You can edit photos, create your own logos and graphics, you could even design webpage layouts with this software and it is absolutely free!

A first I thought this was just something going on in the world of rumors, but I have confirmed this information to be true by way of Fox News. You can find the original article here.

Basically, there was a brawl at a nightclub called Body Tap in Atlanta that led to AJ Jewell sustaining severe injuries to the head. That was later the cause of his death while in the hospital.

This is an awful tragedy that was a shocker for me. My prayers definitely goes out to the families. Things definitely are not what they use to be where you can actually go out on the weekends and have a good time. It has gotten so unsafe that most of the time it is a hesitation to go out and enjoy friends because you don’t know what kind of fight is going to break out and who is going to get hurt.

Am I a victim of information overload? I have been quite a few times, and I’m sure you have probably experienced it before as well. See, I refer to myself as an information junkie that can never learn enough and I think that has everything to do with what I was taught as a child – “there is no such thing as learning too much!”

That’s a bunch of crap! There is a such thing as learning too much and I have the migraine to prove it lol. It is often my problem, that my mind never stops racing when it comes to creative ideas for articles, blog posts, info products, etc. I mean I never have a chance to complete one thought before another pops in my head.
