Happy Founders Day to My Sorors of

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.

On January 13, 1913 22 visionary college educated women founded my beloved sorority, Delta Sigma Theta.


I spent my 1st founders day (weekend...LOL.. you'll see why I say that in a minute!!) where it all began!


The ladies and I enjoyed a wonderful Soror Dinner at Acadian . Then we celebrated 94 historial years and dedication with the Sorors of Alpha Chapter in a Founders day program.

We all bundled up and headed down to Fortitude. At the stoke of midnight we sang songs around Fortitude. Man we had a blast and the weather held up for us (we felt a couple of big rain drops, but we made it!)


Saturday morning we attended the Washington Area Founders Day celebration with over 1100 beautiful Sorors dressed in Red, Black or White. We were also blessed to be in the presence of the radiant 10th National President, Dr. Dorothy I. Height.


Overall, this was a fantastic weekend of celebration and rededication....

Ooooooooooooo-oooooooop My Sorors!!!!!!


Take a look at the photo album for pics from the weekend...

That's What Friends are For!!!!

Got this from a good girlfriend... Thought I would post for you all to enjoy :-)

1. When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.
2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.
3. When you smile -- I will know you finally got laid.
4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get.
5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining.
6. When you are confused -- I will use little words.
7. When you are sick -- Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want to catch whatever you have.
8. When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsy a$$.
9. This is my oath.......I pledge it to the end. "
Why?" you may ask; "because you are my friend".

Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it, but only you can feel the true warmth.!!!

LOL.. My Friends are funny as heck!

Favorite Quote..

"The World will tell you who you are until you tell it!"

Ummph. What are you telling the world?

Let Life Come

What you most sincerely and fundamentally desire, you have already. Drop your shallow pretenses, and you will see.
The power and purpose you seek, are with you even now. Let go of those doubts that have become so comfortable, and you will know.
Stop seeking to classify and to judge every moment, and you'll start seeing each moment's unique treasure. Let life come to you with whatever it brings, and you'll find it bringing more value than you could ever desire.
Those dreams that fill you with joy are no mere illusions. They point to who you truly are.
Those dreams are as real as you allow them to be. Allow them to live at the front of your awareness today.
Right now the richness of life is all around you. Let it carry you along with peace and joy and fulfillment and love.
-- Ralph Marston

Wow.. This was pretty powerful. We often spend lots of time looking for the next big thing to happen and miss enjoying the greatness that we have in front of us. I have spent a great deal of time waiting to do things in my life beacuse of other people. Fortunately for me, I learned this lesson quick before I let life continue to pass me by.

Three most important things that I have begun to do in the past year that help me to enjoy Life as it Comes are:

1. Enjoy time with my friends and family in the moment.
2. Learn to accept people in their place and not to change them knowing that we are all growing at different rates.
3. Love time with myself, life does not stop just because you are Single!!!! :-)

What are your thoughts?
