In a better mood

It’s only the 3rd week of the new year and I already need to vent?? This does not bode well for 2012. 1. My B average at school sucks. I have 8 classes to go and even with A’s, I’m not going to make cum laude. If only you had any idea of how disappointed… [Read more…]

One of our engagement photos

I’ve decided to jump on the bandwagon and be retrospective and philosophical. Ok, if you know me, then you know I’m not either one of those; just a smarty pants! I could say I wish 2011 never happened but after looking at my year in review, it was interesting to say the least. 2011: That… [Read more…]

I said I wasn’t going to be one of those mushy types but here I am…A FB friend posted a video of Prince’s “Adore” last night. It is one of the very few songs that I like by Prince. Although it is a nice song, it does not represent the relationship I have with my… [Read more…]

The Glow

Excitement, anticipation, happiness. I feel all of these at the moment but I feel something more, too. I feel peace, serenity and safe. Yes, I feel safe that finally, my heart won’t be crushed. I feel safe my children no longer have to be scared of a monster. I and them feel safe. Why? I… [Read more…]

Barack Obama, Seattle Brown

So after waiting 2 hours in the cold and waiting inside of the Central High School gym, not only did my children and I get to see President Obama speak but we also stood behind him. In addition, the kids made it into the Concord Monitor newspaper, me and lil mama made it to the… [Read more…]

After 2 years of griping about not having hair or enough of it, I’ve now decided to complain that my hair is too thin. I’m a woman and that’s what I do. I had been asking for suggestions on Facebook about styles for my hair. I had many suggestions but I think a lot of… [Read more…]

HELP! I’m having a sale to replace my stolen cell phone. It’s the only phone I have. My children, sitters and my doctors (I’m a cancer survivor) MUST be able to reach me! A new phone is about $200 (gag). I’m a single mother, attending Harvard full time. I just don’t have the money to… [Read more…]

It's a cake!

In 22 days I will be 40 years old. I’m sure many women groan at this milestone, I’m truly thankful to have made it. As a young girl, I never thought I would make it to 30, let alone 40. And if we calculate each month having a straight 30 days and a year is… [Read more…]

I came across this post on “Breast Canceropoly“. Basically, it’s about how some women compare their diagnosis to other women to see who has/had it worse. I don’t know if I played the game (and if I have, I invite people to let me know in the comments section). But what I do know is… [Read more…]

What a morning…I’m holding in my hands copies of the 8 indictments against rat bastard. I knew what the indictments were for but to see them on official letterhead was a bit jarring. I was ok reading them until I came across this little phrase: “manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life.” I… [Read more…]
