I’m 45 years old today! WOW! I really feel about the same as I did in my early thirties. Nothing is starting to “snap, crackle and pop” yet, so I guess it’s all good, right? Time flies, when you’re having fun — actually, time just…flies, after you turn 25.
What’s on the agenda for today? Well, I took the day off. So, naturally soaping is on the schedule. I’ll probably dine with my girl pals, this weekend. I wish I felt different, so I could share something special about this day. In truth, it’s just another day — a blessed day, still. So many have left this world, under some horrific circumstances. So, I guess I’m just glad to be here, in my right mind and in good health.
No crazy stalkers. No children tryna kill me. No hip replacement surgery on the schedule. No cataracts. No problems. Life is good!

It’s official. I’m off shampoo bars — I think. 
I’ve recently been using Aveda’s Shampure (I used it as a permie and loved it), and it’s now my shampoo of choice. It removes buildup better, and I don’t have to work so hard to get my scalp clean. Time is limited. Plus, I like the way my hair feels afterwards.
I haven’t purchased any major hair products, in a LONG while. I have enough stuff to finance a small, third-world country.

I almost missed it! I guess it’s apparent the I don’t have a “sweetie”. But hey, I’m happy for all those who do! I hope you experience the sweetness of Valentine’s Day, everyday — not just today.

She resigned, and I feel bad for her — she will experience the greatest “fallout” from all this. Kwame will distance himself from her, to try and fall back into grace with the people. She’s a law student, and this incident will be looked at closely, when the Bar comes around.
Forget, for a second, the morality of the whole thing — seems like folks don’t wanna talk about morals and what’s good and right. Seems like it’s all up to the individual. I can handle that mentality, while I totally disagree. But when women choose to enter into shady relationships, with married political figures, it NEVAH turns out right — not for them. They always go down with the ship. She’s without a job. He’s still the mayor. Do you see what I see?
Everybody’s got a “pastor” to run to, when the stuff hits the fan. But when we run to GOD, when we find ourselves in trouble — either because of the heat of temptation, or the reality of wrong actions, we can find forgiveness (when there’s genuine repentance) and hope.
I hope she learned the lesson.
