Well… It’s that time of year again–school. I’m always so nervous on the first day of school no matter that’s it my seventh first day of school. I guess I’m nervous because it’s new. New students. New year. New clothes. New shoes. New supplies. I decided to move classrooms this year; on purpose. It was…

I still miss my mom. At 3:15 pm, on August 9th, 2011, my mom took her last breath. I probably should have a better way to cope with this day, which trust me, I am doing great compared to the first few years. But I hate that this day looms over me. We celebrate her…

Mental health is real. It’s mean. It’s ugly. And it’s present. Everyone battles some form of it. My friends and I joke that we are all on the spectrum somewhere (no disrespect to those on the spectrum. I have family members actually on the spectrum). But for some reason it’s so hush hush. No one…

Or I’m PMS’ing. Ugh……

It’s been six years since my mommy died. Actually, it’s been six years today that my mommy died. Somewhere around 3:15 pm to be exact. Every year I post a picture or two or more of my beautiful mommy on social media and say, “Six years ago today, I lost my beautiful mommy.” It seems…

I grew up on Monopoly. My three big sisters would come over for the weekend and my dad and my mom would get out the vintage game of Monopoly. There would be cardboard pizza, Doritos, Deans dip, and Pepsi. Mind you this was the 80’s. I remember my mom scratching the middle of the board…
