4th Or Nah

We are NOT gone argue today black people. Nah y'all know damn well why black people do not celebrate July 4th. But incase you don't, follow along below ....


July 4,1776 - American Colonies declares independence 

June 19,1865 - slaves were informed they were free

According to my college drop out math .... that's 89 years of popping fireworks that black people didn't get to do.

Now I'm not mad at anybody celebrating the 4th. I am and will FOR EVAH partake in the bbq's, spades games, firework popping festivities as long as I live. I just want black people on this day to stop getting upset when you wish another black person a "Happy 4th Of July" and they just look at your ass. BE CAUSE ... several people STILL have no idea what Juneteenth is and no one is barking up your tree about that. Hell that should be a mandatory paid holiday for ALL black folks hell. 

So get your kids dressed in their red,white,and blue ( my baby has on coral and baby blue, we won't be buying 4th outfits ever but again no shade ), bbq with the white sauce, cool beers, panty droppers, and enjoy your paid off day!! As my sister-in-law said on FB earlier ...

Happy BBQ and Spades Day!!

Check On Your Friends

So I had this whole blog written out in the shower about 30 minutes ago. For some strange reason I have been staring at this screen for 10 minutes with nothing to type. First let's talk about me, then we'll talk about you. Many of you do not follow me on social media but I am currently 37 weeks pregnant, still married, with a 20 month old. This second baby was NOT planned and honestly threw me into a world wind of emotions from day one when I found out. You can really prepare everything you need/want for your baby but still not be mentally ready. I, for one, am just now starting to get there. For the past few months I have been struggling with depression. I mean it was really bad. I didn't talk about it with anyone because honestly I did not want to hear any of the following : 1. You need to just go to church and pray about it. - FYI mental health is not something your pastor can scripture away. 2. You aren't the first person to have two babies back to back. - I ...

If It Were You, Would You Be Proud

I don't really know how to start this post, but ya'll rock with me so just let me have a moment. I love to blog but I am having time management issues with everything going on in my life. It doesn't make me money so it kind of goes on the back burner even though I love to do it. My small home town had a double homicide yesterday. I'm not listing names or locations because I respect the privacy of everyone in that situation. With a sad heart, my mind began to race with thoughts of "if this happened to me, have I lived the life I wanted?" Because it can happened to any of us. I live in Stone Mountain, GA and although my block is very quiet, little to no children on the block, just a few weeks ago my husband and I came home to a road full with police, fire department trucks, ambulance vans and cars everywhere. We still don't know what happened down there. I work for myself. My husband and I started a few businesses together and each of them has there se...

Dear MCM, I am a Husband

My girlfriend and I have been dating for 3 years. Recently we started talking about moving in together and I brought up marriage. She brushed off the question and I really paid it no mind. As we started going to look at rental places, I wanted more rooms than she and when she asked me why I brought up future kids and marriage. She laughed at me and said who said I was going to marry you. Honestly this took me back and hurt my feelings. I guess she noticed it and tried to "please" me later that night. Yes it was great sex, but I was still mad about what she said. This is her way of "hoping I don't bring it up again." We were deciding on what place to pick and I asked her what did she think about getting married in the next year or so. We both are stable, great jobs and in our early 30s. She said she doesn't know if she wants to marry me. I asked her why and she couldn't give me an explanation. I thought about it over the weekend and that following Mon...
