MJ
Today I am writing and linking to a post “A Beautiful Life“. I have a “Beautiful Life” with my Family, Home and Friends (just to get started).
Well what can I say? When I was a child, I was ALWAYS the new kid on the block. I was a “move a rounder” every couple years growing up. (And no I wasn’t a military brat). Just how life was with a single mom trying to move up the ladder and make the best living for her and her kids (me & bro). Anywho, leaping forward 30 some years, I have a beautiful life (not that it was horrible while being younger)! I’m blessed with not just family who I’m crazy about (most of them anyway), I have the BEST group of girlfriends EVER!!! (Thanks Knet, Essie and Chels!!!)
Most of my dear friends are not bloggers (I’m still working on that), but for those who are there is truly a different connection (not in a Face Book kind of way either). I’ve tried my darndest to start a blogger support group to encourage EVERYONE to start blogging. I use to be the Scrapbook Queen, blogging is so much easier, neater and more fulfilling (in a comment giving sort of way).
One day I’ll write more on my friends who mean the world to me, but today is dedicated to a friend MJ who maybe not “completes me”, but “gets me” in the need to do something BIG. We started out meeting through a mutual friend (isn’t that how most relationships start?). We had so much in common… She was in the F.B.I., I was a GSO Firefighter (two quite masculine jobs, even though we ARE cute and NOT masculine!)… She bakes the BEST cookies, I eat them… She started blogging about her life(One Nutty Girl), I started blogging about my second son’s life (Drake)… she has this beautiful, unique watch, I had never known anyone to have, I have the same one (what*a*kawinky-dink!)… she wanted to start something big in the “blog world” with someone, I agreed!!!
We now have started a business blog called Seek the Triad.
Several months ago, it started out just a fun “girl thing” to do. As of last week we have gone with a full blown ‘On-line Magazine” about our town and ALL it has to offer. We are having a blast, our business ideas are so in sync and our talents complement each other so much that is scary. When we are hanging up the phone at the end of the day (or logging-off), we know what we are doing all started with the love two friends have for each other, our families/friends, GOD and the need to just do something that tells the world we care.

What a sweet friend you are!
Hi! I just found your blog from kimba–to seekthetriad and now here! I was intrigued b/c one of my friends is moving to Winston Salem for school. He is trying to find a church. And when I saw your blog covered WS, I was so excited! Do you have any church suggestions? Or a link to where I could view a list?
Thanks for any help!
