DC

 Wow and just like that 1 year has passed. I moved to DC at the top of 2022 and I hit the ground running. I went out on so many dates to learn the neighborhoods, I found an apartment I loved, I spent time curating furniture so I could make my space my own, I traveled more than I have my entire life. I was enjoying being in this new space and I talked to new people every day. Even managed to make a few new friends and in that I thought I found the one. He was a lot younger but he was different. Smart, sweet, he listened, Ridiculously handsome, kind, he handled me with kid gloves and I loved that. He was patient with me and did all the small things. I always had flowers, my favorite candy, someone who was always willing to go for a walk when I had a frustrating day. He made all the other dates I had been on seem frivolous. Our first date we went to dive bar. We had PBRs and chatted about life. We had so much in common it felt like I had met him before. We stayed up all night chatting...

And Just Like that...

 It's Time to Leave Arizona Where does the time go?  I told myself I would be writing more frequently about all things, life, love, and my pursuit of happiness. " It is always with the best intentions that the worst work is done." Oscar Wilde I've been packing, moving is such work... and just like that my time here has come to an end.  I've also been working non-stop and when I have free moments the thought of doing more work exhausts me so I have been still... little to no social media, posting or extra jobs. In that quiet, I have gotten some clarity about what I want out of life. I was talking to a few friends about knowing you are on the right path... In my life, I have never fit in. People used to think it was on purpose. Like  I wanted to be perceived as different or I wanted to be a break from the norm but the truth is, I have never figured out how to do what was expected of me, no matter how hard I tried. How do you follow the right path when you don’t know...

In the words of Demetria L Lucas…

Interested men act interested. I recalled today one time a guy caught me off guard with how interested he was, and as we go into cuddle Buddy season I think about him. The year was 2018, and I went to grits and biscuits with my 2 really good girlfriends. We were all cute …. See proof. We understood the assignment. So we were wandering around scoping out the talent. When I spotted a guy. He was so handsome to me. Im a sucker for light eyes. He looked exactly like Kendrick Sampson just with a connecting beard and a Michael Strahan gap in his teeth. (See photo of Kendrick for reference)  I saw him, he doesn’t see me. I chalked it up to the game and continued to circle the party. One of my girls was getting drinks from cute guys, my other was collecting numbers like it was a part-time job. I was still thinking about that guy I saw. My friends told me to let it go and we moved around. I met and danced with a few people, got drinks to drink and drunk them in my T-pain voice and went back...

It's been a long time... I shouldn't have left you

...without some dope beats to step to. step to. step to. a step to. (Wicky Wicky) Okay Okay.. enough with the Aaliyah lyrics. I took a break for a week.  and then a week turned into a month  and then a month turned into 6 months.  (hangs head in shame)  Well, hello again!  I hope you are great.  I hope your ass is great.  I hope the family is great.  I hope everything is great. Truth be told, all those many months ago I was working through some emotions, and feelings. This blog became a place for me to heal and once I had worked through those emotions, I couldn't figure out what to write about. So Oops... my bad! Let me think, what's new with me. Well, I'm still in Arizona, The bugs are getting larger and the mosquitos have no chill. I am look for my next adventure, probably first quarter of 2022. I went back to Corporate America. I didn't quit entrepreneurship entirely but I needed some stability and job security while the rest of my life changin...

Happy Mother's Day or Whomever you celebrate...

  Mother’s Day is hard for me Because I had a mother figure for a few years but I basically raised myself. So this day is a reminder of what I had and what I lost. What I might have had, what I might have one day and what I will never have... I make no secret that my mom committed suicide when I was 4.  So this day just makes me sad, but not just for me. I’m sad for lots of people. To the girls that didn’t have a positive mother figure.  To those that lost their mothers far too soon. To those that wanted to become mothers but can’t.  To those still fighting to become a mother. To those that had mothers who were inherently toxic.  To those that had to mother themselves.  To those that waited a lifetime to become a mother. To those that are aunts and friends who assist in mothering.  To those that just didn’t want children but mother their friends, or help others.  To those that just wanted solace in their adulthood’s after their toxic childhoods. T...
