Proud Sis of Little Bro

Congratulations Chaz!!! I knew you could do it!

My brother, Charles, was by no means the scholar that he is today. He was...How can I put it mildly...A bit of a meance to society. To make a loooonnnnnggg story short, Charles lost his way for awhile. But with a lot of prayer from family and friends and with the grace of God, and with a lot of hard work and self-discipline Charles came back. And he came back with a vengance, y'all!

Charles graduated Cum Laude from Andrews University in June. And in September he will be starting dental school at Loma Linda University.

Charles, I am so proud of you! We are so proud of you! And we know you will continue to make us proud.

Mom says, "Charse, I so much proud ob you."

Freaky Tuesday

I'm sitting in court today doing the misdemeanor calendar thinkng, "Today is going to be like all the other Tuesdays. Well, like all the other Mondays-Fridays for that matter." The judge called up some defendant about some bench warrant. All of a sudden a different defendant from another case gets up from the audience and slowly makes his way over to defense counsel table. The baliff says to him, "Hey, where are you going." The defendant ignores the question and keeps walking. I'm thinking, "Okay, this guy is a little strange."


Next the defendant pulls out the chair that was neatly tucked under the defense counsel table, lifts it up and HURLS it at the white-haired, frail little judge and yells out, "You're not the judge, I'm the judge! I'm the king of the Jews!" The chair hits the judge's podium and misses the judge by inches only!


The chair is flying, I'm screaming, people are gasping, the bailiff is cuffing the defendant and requesting back up simultaneously, other deputies come rushing into the courtroom, and the defendant is taken into custody! It was a crazy morning.

A few minutes later I say, "Goodness, can anything else go wrong today?" And I kid you not, that is when we are shaken by a 5.8 earthquake! Again, people are gasping, running under doorways, holding onto pillars and bolting under tables.


East LA Courthouse, Department 2. Where it all went down.

Goodness sakes, Im afraid to ask, "Can anything else go wrong today?"

Blog Debut

I will admit it. I have been reading up on other people's lives through their blogs. And I must say it has been quite enjoyable. Some blogs bring a smile to my face and warm my heart, some blogs make me laugh out loud, some blogs are educational, and some blogs amaze me, and some blogs make me ponder the world...Really.

I am amazed how people "put their lives out there" and share their most inner thoughts with the world. I admire it. So, I decided to "hop on the blog waggon."

And now I welcome myself to the world of blogging! "WELCOME!"

However, as you can see I am a total amature. Hence, excuse the "boringness" and "blahness" of my blog page.

Nevertheless, I hope you and I will enjoy this "journey" together. And who knows, maybe we will even get to a "destination" together.

Stay tuned...
