#ConfessionsOfALocdGoddess: Hair Updates and Such!

I haven’t given you guys an update on these locs in a while, so I decided to let you all know what’s been going on! Color: I colored my locs! This was the day after I colored them on my way to work! I was going for a deep red/burgundy/copper type color….I think it turned out…

The Ugly Truth.

I told him “I love you” hoping he felt the same. The words “I don’t love you” fell out of his mouth like they were hanging on to the edge of a mountain top, and suddenly, they lost their grip on the tip of his tongue. I could feel my heart give way, and sink…

My Child Amazes Me!

Sometimes, I can’t help but be in complete awe of my child. She truly is an amazing little toddler!

A Bad Day at Work…

I usually gripe about bad days at work, but truthfully, they are nothing more than days where I actually WORK all day long, and don’t really have a moment to breathe. Those days truly aren’t that bad, because I’m usually creating solutions to problems that arise, and in the end, although it takes a lot…

Nighttime Conversations…

Bright stars dancing in the darkness of the morning. Before the kiss of dawn radiates our corner of the world, I watched you. As your chest rose and fell in the rhythm of my heartbeats I knew, That to lose you, would be the most slow and agonizing pain I’ve ever experienced. I wanted our rhythm…

#BADUmixtape

So, I had the pleasure of experiencing musical goodness when I got Erykah Badu’s mixtape, But You Caint Use my Phone, on 11/27 (actually due to the pandemonium on Apple, I didn’t get it until 11/28). It officially dropped on Apple Music on midnight of Black Friday. I had to join Apple Music first, since…

My Open Mic Experience

On 11/21, I went to the second open mic night held in my hometown. I posted this post describing my newest quest on the bucket list of life, which was actually performing at an open mic night. Well, with the support and encouragement from friends and family, I didn’t chicken out, lol! I performed one of…

The Value in Self-Care

Lately I have been really trying to keep up with my level of self-care. I was having a conversation with a friend, who told me that I really need to try to do more of it (or do it at all because I don’t). I thought about it and she is right, I don’t…

#Year28

Tuesday marked the 28th year the Lord has blessed me with life. I didn’t do much, aside from the adult obligations (license renewal and registration lol), but I enjoyed the day doing some things that I wanted to do. I took a lot of time to reflect on the things I want to accomplish in…

Hall passes?!

So, I have recently seen that Mo’Nique has stated that she has given her man a hall pass, and the floodgates have opened up! I was listening to Rickey Smiley this morning, while women were calling in giving their 2 cents as where they stand with giving their mate a hall pass. I heard a…
