I thought I would post this pic. It's a picture of me -actually my foot-from last year at Maracas Beach. It just screams warm...Here's hoping the weather hasn't gotten you down. Have a great rest of the week.

Its Wednesday
Hump day and I hope the week has been good to you thus far. I've been good but the changes in the weather make me feel blah. I get home and there is very little I want to do. Honestly, I am doing the bare minimum. I am so looking forward to a break in the weather.

Just a Thought
I have been doing a LOT of thinking lately. About life, love and the pursuit of happiness- in its various forms including this blog.
Since I started this blog I have been 'searching' to create its identity. That is probably most evident by the sparse posts. I always feel what I have or want to say has some way or another already been said or that no one will want to read it in the form in which I have written it. But through all that - two years and counting-the desire to write is still there. One of my 'goals' for the new year was to give my blog more attention. With only two posts since the year has begun I would say I haven't been actually been meeting that goal. But hey, the year is still young.
The other thing that was flying over my head until now was that I changed this blog title to Becoming a Better Me and then I didn't write anything about ME. Not one. Single. Solitary post. I'm scratching my head thinking, why haven't I written anything about ALL the things that have or for that matter have NOT happened. Then these lyrics popped into my head. They are from Erykah Badu's Tyrone and they go a little something like this:
"I'm a test this out on y'all right quick.
Now keep in mind that I'm an artist
and I'm sensitive about my sh*t."
(ha ha ha)
Now, on the ha-ha part I eh laughing, you know what I'm saying. I realised the reason I haven't written much about me is because I am SENSITIVE. But then I thought about another saying that loosely says-Nothing worth having comes easy, if it did EVERYONE would have it. I have some ideas in mind as to how I would like to go forward.
Stay tuned........."Lets See How Ya'll Groove to this"

Snow Day
Ok..... That's a bit of a stretch but I thought it was a cute title. It's actually more like an Ice day. The weather here in the South has been horrible. We are used to mild to moderate winters but we have seen temperatures as low as 19 degrees. Right now its about 29 degrees- frigid by Texas standards. Schools and non essential services in the city were all closed today because Emergency Management Officials were expecting a couple of inches of snow. I waited until 1:30 this morning and to no avail. I can't even show pictures of ice because by the time I found my camera, it melted. I live in the city so with constant traffic there wasn't much build up but those in the outlying areas are not quite out of the woods yet.
I have absolutely NO plans to venture into the cold. I have a ton of things I could be doing right here at home. The question is what. I have a stack of three different magazine subscriptions dating back to December that I haven't read. I could pre-poo. I could actually clean a day early. I don't know. Right now surfing the web and creating blog posts seems to be it.
Be safe you guys -especially to those heading to Dallas for Superbowl festivities.
Oh.... before I forget...I was looking for free images of ice to add to this post and you will NEVER guess what my search brought up! Ice T and his wife - Yes you read correctly- Ice T. I won't describe the picture because I want you guys to keep coming to my blog.
