A lot has happened since my unexpected visitor. We had several weeks of fun. In fact the last week was the most amazing week I thought I’d end on a high note. After a weekend of partying. North Carolina and I went to sleep. He snored for several more hours. Only to wake to feedContinue reading “Meeting in the Middle”

I sent a draft of a man’s chapter of my work in progress to them back in December. A draft of how I felt I needed to express my feelings after our break up. Well. Today, he read the chapter. I had deleted his number. Email. Everything. Apparently. He reached out in January but IContinue reading “Old face emerges.”

Over the years as a teacher, I’ve had “The Talk” with kids of all backgrounds and different grades from 3rd grade to 8th grade about the N word. To be clear, just as I am with my students, the first N word is the word nigger. The second N word is the word Nigga. FirstContinue reading “The N Word”

Friendships blossom in different ways. Season. Reason. Lifetime. That’s the saying. I make all kinds of friends. Most of them last a lifetime.

But mostly I have always loved with a deep passion that can either make or break a person. It can also make or break me. Love is what’s on my mind. IContinue reading “My Big Feelings”

Rick Just finished watching cobra Kai. I think you would have given it a dog and a half. I give it two dogs. Maybe you would have given it two dogs. I don’t know. All I know is that you missed it. No more Johnny. No more hating on Sam. No more cheering on fightContinue reading “Cobra Kai”

I knew better than to put in writing anything positive about my love life. It would just jinx it. And so…. Yeah. Pretty sure there’s no boyfriend. Ugh… Fucking just……. UGH!!!

I haven’t had a so called “boyfriend” in years. But Tom has stated that he wants to be my boyfriend and me to be his girlfriend. I don’t know what all that entails other than no extra side pieces which I have cut off. I write this as he snores in my bed. After aContinue reading “New boyfriend”
