While Shawn was out of town last weekend, Andrew and I were having lunch with a group of other moms at a place called Galaxy Drive In in St. Louis Park. It's a great burger joint where you can drive in, get out of your car, and let your kids play. They've got a great grassy area with games and a fe… Continue

For the first time this week I'll get to see my son play in a soccer game. I can get to all the practices easy enough cause they are on Saturdays, but the games I haven't been able to go to cause they're during the week in the evenings. But this week I'll be on the sideline with no problems cause I got let go from my regular gig at myTalk 107.1. I was co hosting and producing with my good buddy Brian Lambert every night from 7 to 9 on the Brian and Sheletta Show.

But last night was our last sho… Continue

I like it a lot better when Andrew was just a little baby and didn't shock the hell out of me with all the crazy and outrageous quesitons that he asks.

My husband is setting up e… Continue

they want to try and take ours! That's right, hold on to your seats ladies and gents because we're being pimped by our prophets, and I ain't talking 'bout pulpit preachers or pimps like Bishop Don Juan hustling hoes! No honey, our former advocates, men who used to "care" about the black community are now using us as pawns to line their pockets with cash.

I thought it strange earlier this year when former basketball great turned millionaire entrepreneur Irvin "Magic" Johnson was in a commercial… Continue

I'm sitting down at the computer, getting ready to tell y'all a funny story and guess who just walked into the room? My beloves son Andrew. That's right, that little fiesty rascal is up at 6 in the morning, along with me, the chickens and the birds that are chirping in my back yard...

Now I've told y'all aready that I hatched a plan to save a few dollars this summer by keeping Andrew home with me. He's not doing summer school, summer camp, day care or anything of the sorts because I wanted to h… Continue
