Giving Thanks...........

Just wanted to take a moment and wish all of you a wonderful Thanksgiving! I hope you all are in fellowship with family and friends. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, here are five things that I am thankful and grateful for.......

* A higher power that is gracious enough to allow me to live.
* Health and happiness
* A wonderful favorite guy who tolerates my moodiness and goofiness
* An eclectic assortment of friends and family who support me no matter what
* A 9 to 5...especially in these days of economic chaos.
* (ok....I had to add just one more....actually the list could go on, but I will just add one....) Being alive to see this country's FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT!!

Enjoy your feast, and we will be back tomorrow with some good news.

Heavy Confessions...........

Yes lovelies and lads...I have a confession to make. Let me start by stating that this is a very difficult thing to come to terms with...and I am gonna need some major support from ya'll.

I am addicted. I have a sickness that I cannot knock. As hard as I try my fingers just grab on and won't let go! I try to shift my focus but they just keep calling me. Dammit, why is it so hard to just give it up? I can log on looking for one simple thing and I look up and realize that I just spent three hours surfing the net...and still did not find what I was initially logged on for. See, I am an internet junkie! I read blogs, listen to music, research for business and pleasure...and sometimes school and work...but I get totally lost. I know...its sad. My favorite guy chastises me often...well chastise is a little harsh. He comments often about the time I meander away playing (so he puts it) at the computer. Do any of you suffer from this addiction? Is there some kind of help group...or what about self help? Can we help ourselves? Leave a comment and tell us what you think.

Now on to what I actually found "playing" on the computer *grin*. We are finally at the holiday season, and let's get real people....the economy sucks! You will not find me foraging the shopping malls trying to find the perfect gifts...nope, not this one. I plan to draw on my creativity and come up with special gift ideas unique to each dear person on my list. So.....here's to ideas........


For the music lover: I am going to create mixtapes from my vast ITunes library...especially for them..or I might find a mixtape here. Or....






.....which in constant rotation in the vehicle right now! Loving this cd! The Renaissance by QTip. This cd reminds me of why of love hip-hop so much....it's so versatile. Ya'll know what I mean right?

For the fly fashionista who loves to rock it uniquely, we have this winterized version of the Harriet's Alter Ego Flounce with a cowl neck... Can be rocked with funky leggings tucked into some hot boots or over skinny jeans....hell, we don't have to tell you to rock it, right? I can think of a fly-girl or two who can rock purposefully.



We have this lovely on hand in black (as shown), chocolate brown, burgundy and forest green at $70.00. Sizes: S-XL

Simply shoot us an email to info@museannex.com to cop one...don't forget to indicate size and color. We will promptly send a PayPal invoice.

Now, if you know of anyone like me, who loves natural bath and body products, then a nice basket with some products from these mixtresses and mixters will be sure to please.

...and in case you forgot. Muse carries Karen's Body Beautiful bath, body and haircare! Our favorite scent is Chamomile Sage...we cannot seem to keep it in stock. We have some really nice scents in Olive Body Lotion, Body Butter, Massage Oil, Hair Milk (which my locs love!), Moisturizing Shampoo, Conditioner, Hair Butter, Hair Cream...and lastly Body Scrubs! What a treat for a loved one to have an assortment of these delectable body treats! Just shoot us an email to find out what scents we have available.

Well lovelies and lads....till next time!





Peace!

YES WE CAN!!!!....YES WE WILL!!!!

I am truly proud of this country on today. The magnitude of this day in history has found me speechless and in total awe of the power of the people. Deep in my heart, I knew it was to be....BUT....history has shown that nothing is certain nor definite. As the polls closed, I found myself anxious and on edge because we have been here before....the trickery, the recounts, the recalls and more that mired elections of the past. But not today my people!!! America has spoken and we have stated loud and clear that WE CAN and WE WILL.....and WE DID! President Elect Barack Obama is our choice...we did not have any other choice! I am so happy and so proud! I look at the First Family and see the depth of what can be when we pull together support one another for the betterment of all....take a look, and tell me what you think.
