Gettin' Back to Doin' Me

So… I’m Back. 🫦

So, it’s been like forever,

which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

It’s uber important

for me to take care of myself,

especially now that I am an older sexy lady. 🤣

It’s been a lot of rough things happening,

and the worst of it

I’m actually still experiencing.

But I’m trying to cope.

One thing I hate

is looking back and regretting

a decision I made

that affected other people profoundly.

And unfortunately,

as a mother, that happens.

You make decisions

thinking you’re doing the best you can

with what you know at the time,

and sometimes you find out later

that those decisions

affected somebody else’s life

in ways you never intended.

I try to minimize

that damage as much as possible.

What amazes me

is how many women I’ve met in my life

who place such tremendous value on

the effect their own parents had on them

whether it was their mother,

their father, or both

—and then turn around

and disrespect the importance

of the influence

they have as somebody’s parent.

Like somehow

what our parents did

helped shape our whole damn existence…

…but what we do

to our own children doesn’t?

All I’m Sayin’ Is…🫦

that seems a little hypocritical to me.

But any who.

I’m writing again.

For my own mental health.

And I’m exercising again.

Not every day yet.

Or even every other day. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤣

But it’s a process.

I’m happy to be back on my website.

I’m happy that my first release,

I Don’t Exactly Remember…,

will be available soon,

followed by Déjà Vu.

So now,

I’m just hoping

I stay on task with these revisions

and don’t somehow end up

writing a completely different book

in the middle

of editing these ones. 🤣

But I’m in there.

So, I’ll write more when I can.

Nothing major has changed.

I’m working on me.

And All I’m Sayin’ Is…🫦 right now,

I think that is enough.
