Have you watched the movie, “Don’t Look Up”? A few of my friends didn’t like it. I’ll admit that it was very slow in some parts, in truth I did fast forward through the middle of it, but I asked myself this question: “What if Noah’s story took place today? hmmmm….. Or any story fromContinue reading ““Don’t Look Up””

Sprinkling Fertilizer
Yes, I know, you’re busy. You are far too busy to even think about adding anything else to your all too busy schedule. Allow me to submit a proposal. You see a few years ago, I began to seek to learn a new skill each year, now if you know me, you understand how largeContinue reading “Sprinkling Fertilizer”
Ego Testing
I don’t usually allow myself to brag or toot my own horn. I’ve always found myself shrinking away from pointing out my accomplishments. If I think on it, it started with all of the As on my report card. It was the rule in my house to get paid for grades. A = $5, BContinue reading “Ego Testing”
New Beginnings
One would think that new year resolutions would be on my mind, and in truth I do have one which was made manifest today in completion. I’ve decided to make them monthly and allow each month it’s own victory. I need these small but consistent victories. Sure, I will endeavor to have more than oneContinue reading “New Beginnings”
Buenos Dias!
It is a beautiful day in the neighborhood! Recently a friend died, leaving those around him unchecked access to his life and all of its messes. In some instances, grief was overshadowed by anger.

Sweet Sweet Dreams
I can say that it is possible to be in love and still wonder what went wrong in the prior relationship. Divorce damages the heart in a way that feels permanent. Yes, my present is comforting and sustaining and all that I ever prayed for and yet… I still wonder what it was I didn’tContinue reading “Sweet Sweet Dreams”
Deforestation deep sigh
While on my way to get #1 son, I noticed a doe with 2 fawn trying to cross the road. I yelled to her, “No!” I said a prayer for the drivers behind me to see them also and continued on my way. The confusion that permeated from the doe was palpable. She’d probably grownContinue reading “Deforestation deep sigh”
I asked the question and the answers weren’t what I expected 😁😃
So, I asked the question: “Do you feel loved?” I asked the 19yr old first her response: “Why? What did I do? Are you giving me back?” (She’s grafted in) I explained why I asked and she laughed, “Girl yes! You scared me! Wait, if I say no do I get a car? 😐 Next,Continue reading “I asked the question and the answers weren’t what I expected 😁😃”
Sexual Wampum~2
As a young woman, I spent most of my days just trying to fit in with whatever crowd I found myself adjacent to; even now I still find myself struggling NOT to do that. Honestly? I’ve never felt “a part” of anything. I’ve always felt as if I float through this life alone. Now whileContinue reading “Sexual Wampum~2”
Body Dysmorphia
I’ve been NOT liking my body ever since my Aunt told me I was fat, I was very young. I thought I had BD, but after taking this unofficial test… I may have to rethink a few things. My hubby calls me sexy, desirable, and a veritable buffet of scrumptious… well, you know. 😉 But I’veContinue reading “Body Dysmorphia”
