Cleaning out my closet, so I decided to share some of what I found.
I know that everyone has had that conversation with friends, or whoever, and to paraphrase “if I could do it over again!” phrase comes up.

Just because she can light up a crowded room, doesn’t mean she’s not broken. Just because she wears a smile on her face doesn’t mean she’s not damaged.

When I say that I love to get out and do things! Baby, it is so me! But, I’m all about a deal. One of my friends had sent a text in the group chat stating that she wanted to go see Chrisette Michele at the House of Blues. I was down because I have [...]

It’s not too many nights when I don’t have my daughter but this past weekend was definitely the case. Friday night I did absolutely nothing so Saturday I was determined to get out the house. A friend of mines texted me Saturday telling me about a surprise party she was throwing for her best [...]
