Normally, this is the night that we adventure with our DnD group and kill imaginary creatures with our fantasy counterparts, and we talk, and we eat and just chill out. The weather in our area of the world derailed our plans. Instead, I practiced retail therapy at Target. Then, I came home and got intoContinue reading “Galentine’s Day”

Lincoln’s Birthday
President Lincoln did a lot of good things. He said a lot of words that we all learned in elementary school. This quote seems especially fitting in the political climate. “We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervertContinue reading “Lincoln’s Birthday”
Black History Month
Another hero from my childhood is the teachers and administrators of my elementary school. These men and women almost all of them were black instilled in me a sense of pride. My second grade teacher made sure that I was included and involved in a mainstream classroom. My third grade teacher helped me love readingContinue reading “Black History Month”
Super Bowl Sunday
I am not a sports fan. I go to live sporting events when time, finances, and my body cooperates. Watching the game from home is just not worth it for me. There is one thing I do like about these events. That’s the food. Tonight, I am making a lighter version of a sloppy joeContinue reading “Super Bowl Sunday”
Prompt Day

A few years ago, I was a part of the first cohort of a course put on by Jess Weiner, called: “WTF is Success“ It was life changing because it got me to consider what success looks like for me, not some idealized version of me… but the personContinue reading “Prompt Day”

So, I was raised with healthy respect and admiration for black leaders and culture. This month, I am going to share with you some of my heroes.Continue reading “Black History Month”
Groundhog Day
I am an intermittent insomniac. At least I used to be. These days, I only have insomnia in moments of great emotional or physical distress. During bouts of insomnia, it feels like living the same day over again. I remember one time, I finally crashed after a day or two. I don’t remember how longContinue reading “Groundhog Day”
Day 31 — the end of blogunary
I wrote/posted every day in January. What did I learn? I learned that writing every day is hard. I learned that getting thoughts from my brain to a coherent post takes planning. And, I learned that this blog/website is how I want to show up in the world. Whatever audience I have here, I thankContinue reading “Day 31 — the end of blogunary”
