BOYFRIEND APPROVAL

I don’t remember the exact comments my Dad most recently made about one of my ex’s. But the sentiment was very poignant. Because it wasn’t great. In fact, it was brutally honest. And he didn’t utter a word at the time I was dating him. But looking back, I saw the signs. Dad knew he wasn’t right for me. And so did I. But I had to learn that one on my own. 

BLACK FRI-YAY

So here's the deal. I'm a hop, skip and a jump from completing my Christmas list. Ok, Not really, but I'm getting started in a big way because. One word. SALE. Y'all know I'm not into paying retail and with this handy little laptop, I'm killing it, one click at a time. I've found a few too many good things to not consider for black friday, and they are all GIFT-WORTHY. So happy fri-yay! I've even found a few stocking stuffers, and don't think I'm not stuffing my own damn stocking. Duh. Here's a first look at the gift guide turkeys!

WHEN THEY COME TO YOU

This is us. Well, the us before my us. This was before a lot of things. This is precisely 2 months before I gave birth the greatest change in life, becoming a mother to a daughter. But between me, Mom and Dad, nothing's changed. They still remain the parents who love fiercely. Who won't back down. Who show up when you need them most. Who will come to you when you simply can't come to them.
