So, where we live, it is close to 365 days since our kids have been to school. It is hard to believe that in our country, kids are being held inside their homes when government agencies and medical professionals have clearly stated that schools are safer places to be.

So, I am grateful. I had breakfast to eat today and a car to drive and a job to go to. My child is safe and warm this morning. Though I wasn’t gung-ho about the oatmeal or coming to work or the fact that my high schooler has to sit home alone all day and […]

So why do I pause? Why do I stay away? Why can’t I talk or be the same person? I have lost. I have battled. I have cried. I have fallen down. I have wept. I have prayed I give up. I triumph. I falter. I flail. The pain sears. And then it heals. Loss, […]

So,Black lives matter. But how long will people not of color feel that way?

June 15, 2020.Reading time 7 minutes.

So, for me, I have always been open minded. But with that being said, I have my prejudices like everyone. But anti-black hasn’t been one of them. I grew up in Ga and half of our class was white and half was black in most of our classes. So if someone was racist either against […]
