April? Already? Posted by La Niece McKay , Saturday, April 9, 2011 at 10:38 PM, in

Man does time fly!!!!!!! Whew! Well things have been going well for me lately. There was a moment in time where things weren't as good. I lost a friend this year. I'm sure most of you heard, Nate Dogg passed away. It was a time of mixed emotion for me. He had been sick for quite some time and at the worst of it he had lost a lot of his memory. So I mourned our friendship at that time. Because we were studio friends, his family and close friends didn't know much about me so I was completely out of touch with him by then. For the Funeral the choir he had put together (which I was in) got back together. "InNate Praise" It was so great to see everyone again. We hadn't been together in about 2-3 years or maybe even more. but it was bittersweet because we all knew why we were there.

Also since I last logged in I quit my dayjob and got a new one. lol. The owner at the salon I worked at and I just didn't see eye to eye far too often. In my opinion she is quite a bit ridiculous but I'm sure in hers I probably am.... lol. Whatever the case, it was time to move forward with other things and leave that behind. So now I am at the promenade performing more often. Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I also landed a gig singing background for Tito Jackson. The dates are not a regular thing but the show is a lot of fun and it is such an honor to work with someone so great and with so much history in music. Tito (and I) will be performing at Morongo Casino on May 14th. If you are free and can get there you should come check out the show. I get to sing solo's too! :0) On top of those things I am still auditioning and writing and recording all the time. I'm in the middle of a live project that I volunteered to put together for a friend of mine.

Well as you can see, a lot is going on. I just wanted to check in and letchya' know. I am so very happy right now with my choices and exercising my freedom to live life the way I want to. I am pursuing the things I want with all my might and in the process not allowing money - the lack of it, abundance of it, or pursuit of it - to effect my ability to be happy. The money will come.... and go.... that's life. But my happiness is here to stay! :) Thanks for reading. Please send me a note and let me know you've been here. Love to you!
