At times I have stuff on my mind that I want to share. It doesn't always warrant a phone call or text to friends, but often it IS something I need to get off my chest beyond a journal entry. So, here we are. Welcome to my random thoughts. Enjoy!

I'm Baaaaaaaaaack!

So I was thinking about how QUICKLY this hiatus went by and *in my Kevin Hart voice* I wasn't ready! I wasn't blogging, but I definitely kept busy and of COURSE I was always thinking. The break was much needed, and even though the time seemed to fly, I'm excited to share my random thoughts with all 17 of you again! 😂 Here's a quick run-through of some of the thoughts that have invaded my head as of late.
  • I think I look pretty good for my age. - I'll be 42 in a couple months and I'm grateful that "black don't crack", but on the other hand all the other ways my body is betraying me is annoyingly absurd. 
  • Speaking of age, I think I may be going through a mid-life crisis of sorts. - I've never been much of an animal person, but in the last few months I've had an intense longing for a dog. I have a special dog folder on Instagram, I'm thinking of names, figuring out who will dogsit when I travel, wondering how training will go, etc. I'm obsessed and I hope to be a dog mommy in the next few months. 🥰
  • I'm probably the busiest I've ever been. - I don't know if this is another symptom of aging or an affect (or effect?? this one gets me every time) of the pandemic, but I've picked this moment in time to do everything I've ever wanted to do, felt I should have done, or just realized that I wanted to do. The thing is, I fully believe this is the proper and necessary time for all of it. 
  •  Clothing sizes are BS! - I can comfortably wear sizes ranging from small to extra large. 🤦🏾‍♀️
  • I've had enough of living through historical events. - Some stuff has been cool, but things like a pandemic, 9-11, the first orange president, mass shootings, blatant racism, and the like tend to overshadow the cool things. Just give me a regular, degular year that won't end up in my grandchildren's history book or as a Netflix documentary.
What have you been thinking about since I've been gone? Can you relate to anything on my list? Leave a comment and let me know!

Welcome back! I am just ready, for all this to be over, and we get to some type of normalcy. I am ready to go back to church.

I love this blog and appreciate your transparency.

I think I’m going through an early mid-life crisis as well. I want a dog and have become obsessed with the wrinkles around my eyes. And I feel like everything I’ve ever wanted and/or failed to do needs to be done in 2021. 😩😩🙃

Oh, and clothing sizes are a joke, which is why I try to stay faithful to a few trustworthy brands.
