I hate it when people ask how old you are then look at your ring finger to see if a ring is present. It’s almost tempting to go out and buy one to avoid the awkward feeling of having to explain why I don’t have one.
True I’m 33 but a husband doesn’t seem to fit in my life plan right now. I have enough to take care of. It is kinda scary when I ask myself “Who’s gonna take care of me?”
but a second later…I’m over it

Tonight I am full of emotion. I watched elderly neighbors stand in 49 degree weather this morning, joints aching, in Sunday’s best to vote. The gravity of what we were voting for hit like a ton of bricks. Yeah you’ve read about it and of course you’ve gathered that this election would mean so much to so many african americans but I FELT it. I was in tears realizing just how much this would uplift my community.
Friends and family drove others by the truckload to the polls just to cast their vote no matter who they chose. People that were happily ignorant about politics years ago could speak fluently about the issues and the candidates.
My daughter can tell her children about everything that went on today….
I am so incredibly PROUD that the world, young and old can see that ANYTHING is possible…
my heart is full.

I need to release the anger the place has created in me. I need to release the frustration. I need to stop letting what I can’t control drive me to the point of losing control. I need to release. I need to stop letting my lack of respect for those I once respected show on my face. I need to stop losing sight of what’s beautiful in my life when I want to crush someone’s head with my hands. I need to release the darkness that’s taken over who I am, who I was to become. I need to let it go now before the bastards make me release…

I’ve never felt the need to use such a vulgar, nasty, and awful word like “cunt” before but today I totally called someone that, and wanted to call her that to her face….then I realized, I totally grossed myself out!
I’ve never experienced such petty, sneaky BS in my life and the first word I thought of was THAT word.
I’m going to go shower. I feel dirty.

It’s been a while since I took the time to post but I’ve been really busy. My family worked really hard to put together a family gathering and it was a Huge success! So many family members and friends came. All of the younger kids thought Mills was a “Rockstar”. We had a blast!
The best part of the day was when my mom was laughing and dancing until she just couldn’t anymore. I can’t remember the last time she did that.

Last night I watched the BET awards show. The highlight for me was seeing TLC, SWV, and Envogue united for an Alicia Keys performance. Though ghetto fabulous as usual, this year’s shows offered a lot of surprises that i enjoyed. They even featured Al Green. That alone made me very happy. One sad thing is that Usher…is…NOT…sexy anymore!

I woke this morning in a good mood. I’m not sure if it’s because I didn’t rush to get the kids to school and me to work, or if i’m finally shaking the funk I was in. I’m party planning at it’s a lot of fun. I haven’t had one since my college graduation. I’m inviting as many friends and family members as I can so everyone can meet and mingle with everyone and just enjoy the day. I’m looking forward to it.
*oh yeah..my FRIEND Syd said other people were more important that me so she’s standing us up but I forgive her*
