Happy Monday! Today is Bug Monday. Why? This morning started out with a bug doing the Cha Cha while coming out of the air conditioning vent. I took two steps toward the coffee pot where I was greeted by a cricket who seemed to be getting his days and nights mixed up, playing the fiddle. Once I showed him the way out, I went into the bathroom where there in the corner was a redheaded spider, waving at me. Needless to say, as much as I like insects, there are just some that I don't see eye to eye with and the spider is one of them. It was a short lived relationship as he crawled towards the light. (Spider heaven). I felt slightly bad but not that bad. Where there is one spider, there's usually a family of them waiting for the "all's clear" signal. Let this be a message to you Spider Family - No spiders allowed!!!!

Only I --- could misunderstand someone that is telling me that they are "packing". She said, "I'm still living here but I'm packing." My re...

I Love Being Black

LifeWithKaishon asked, "What do you enjoy most about being a black woman?" This may sound totally ridiculous but I love the color of my skin. I love that in the summertime, I turn a darker shade of brown. I love that as a Black woman, beauty comes in all hues. I admit that there are times when I stand out in a crowd, if I'm the only black person around but I don't view it as a negative but a positive. I hope that what I emulate is a confident, friendly, well rounded lady who doesn't mind joining in. I'm proud of my heritage. I have Native American Indian on both sides of my family, German, Irish, and Jamaican, to name a few. I don't mind at all being a part of this huge melting pot. "What preconcieved ideas do you think many people have about black women?" I'm not really sure what preconceived ideas there are but I know what I am not: I'm not an angry Black woman. I don't have a problem with White women dating Black men (or vice vers...
