Nice Weather Today!


Finally, Today we almost reached 80 degree weather here in Chi-Town, the summer time is almost near and I was starting to feel a little sad thinking we were gonna have only 2 season this year ( Fall or Winter) My family and I have been sick with colds, allergies, and even sinus affections, Thank God we all over came them.

You can tell when it start getting hot in Chicago, because you will see a bunch of half dress women out on the prawl, looking for their next guy with the nice car, flashy money, or the bling-bling.

You will see the guys, probably with no job, with a $30,000-$40,000 car, loaded with TV's, DVD Players, and I won't be surprise if I see a play station 3 inside, rims sitting on 22's or 28's or what ever they call it (I'm very clueless) about that sh** and last but not least they will be bobbing their head to rap music driving as fast as they can, up & down the same streets all day long. Of course the drug dealers and the drug users standing in front of YOUR HOME. That is what a typical day is like in some Chicago areas. This is what the youngsters call havvvvving fuuuuuun! Now, you can go outside this kind of neighborhood to see the beautiful side of Chicago and I'm sure in every city there is a community like mines, I love Chicago, why wouldn't I, this is the city in which I'm from, I have experience living in Desoto, Texas (2x's) and sometimes I hate leaving...I got home sick!!!LOL Once I got back here to Chicago, I found out that I wasn't missing sh**! What a BIG, BIG, mistake.

Seeing all of this in my hood, informs me that summer time is on it's way to Chicago and it also informs me that although I live in this community for now (because I will be moving soon) I don't have to hang out here, I have 1 teenage son and 2 younger sons with a great husband and we have plans on introducing our children to a different environment. Allowing them to see another side of our beautiful city. Our Plans will consist of......

Until Next Time,
Peace & Love!
