Lately, I have been feeling like creating something for me and my daughter to have that signifies our bond to each other. I didn’t know what I wanted it to be, but I knew I wanted it to be something simple and special for the both of us; something we would have with us everyday,…

What’s Your Definition?
Everyone has something that defines them. It’s usually in their introduction of themselves. It’s the one thing they take pride in, that thing they want you to know more than anything else they talk about. Most times, that is all they talk about. Other times, you see it shine through them naturally. I firmly believe…
Standing in the Sun
It’s something about stepping outside on a sunny day, and allowing the warmth of the sun to radiate through your pores. It’s exhilarating. I spent 5 minutes in the sun today and it made me feel really good. I have noticed that every day I feel so closed in. I spend my entire day in…
Sipping Tea with the Enemy…I Mean Ex! A Lesson in Forgiveness…
So I just got done watching the movie, Black Coffee on BET. The movie was quite interesting; but the part that caught my attention the most was the end. I will explain it a little: Robert was dating Mita at the beginning of the movie. Well, Robert lost his job, and his woman because she…
Empty
Another night, lying in bed, searching the ceiling for an answer it didn’t have. Another night of talking to herself, asking questions with no answer. Another night of empty and idle thoughts.

On Interior Spaces: A Place To Write
Originally posted on Properly Improper:
Remember when I said I work more productively when I plan, well I also work better when I have a quiet, clean, efficient space to create, pay bills, or think. I am re-designing my home and one of the rooms that need an update is my office space. Although, I…
Who’s Number 1?
I recently read this article, that discussed one’s reason behind putting her husband before her children. People do tend to look at you funny when you say you put your spouse before your kids, and there are actually some parts of the post that I agree with, so I want to ask all my wives…
