April 21, 2007 Northern CA SL Gathering!

Hi All:
If you live in Northern Cal and missed the get-together yesterday, you missed out on a great time. First of all, kudos to GIGirl, organizer of the event. Her hard work paid off. Actually this was a first for me, and im really glad I went. We met in Oakland at a Puerto Rican restaurant named Sotritos. You needed to come hungry because they feed you alot. The food was quite good. I met some very beautiful, enlighted, and well spoken women. We all had alot to talk about of course, we all had one thing in common, out sisterlocks. No matter what stage in the locking process everyone's hair looked great. It was obvious that each of us were proud of our hair.
Having my two sister's there was an extra special treat for me. My oldest sister Dee hapened to meet up with her old college friend that she hadn't seen in 10 years. It was quite moving to see their suprise reunion. I arrived home that evening with my heart full of glee! I look forward to our next gathering.

Whats goin' on?

Greetings All

What an interesting month this has been so far. On March 3, I met with GiGirl for the first time. We had lunch at a Chinese restaurant in Yuba City. We had much to talk about, including our SL journey. We will even carpool together to the Upcoming Northern California sister lock gathering. What an enjoyable day it was.
The next day I went to Akilah for my ret-ightening session, 12 weeks and counting. I'm still getting slippage but not as much.The following week was family court mediation...again! The details are too depressing, but we got through it. Praise the lord.
After that, the Imus controversy, and today the Virgina Tech University shooting. My goodness,are we in the last days or what? Our country is in need of some serious prayer.
Peace and Love to you.

Me with GiGirl
