Allow me to reintroduce myself
In the beginning there was a time when I could not wait to share the random everything that was on my mind. A post about my hair? Check! A recap and some thoughts about the show I was watching on TV? On it! Family funnies…here ya go! All the things, all the time and it was fun.
Then I heard that blogging could be a side hustle and I was all for it. If I am being real, I did not quite have the sense of urgency that I should have when it came to my hustle. I sorta jumped on the bandwagon, getting campaigns and making a little bit of pocket change to make me feel like I was doing a thing. But I was a wannabe influencer. Missing deadlines, not sharing my best work and generally being the type of flake that I would add to my “do not call list” at my day job.
My sister and I thought we would do a little something together but that did not pan out. It was fun while it lasted but life and creative differences got in the way and that venture has fizzled out.
When my own space here was attacked by some kind of virus, I lost some of my flavor. For months my site was down so I started pouring all of that social media energy reserved for me into my day job. My co-workers and I rock out our posts and I am proud of the work that I am a part of but I miss that part of me that shares the thoughts and words of me without having to worry if someone reading it will complain to my supervisor.
So here I am again. I’m older, maybe not wiser but here and waving hello. Stop by through the month for words and thoughts from me.

I SO feel you!
