When you lay down and immediately find that perfect position…you know the sleep is going to be stellar!

I wanna stay at home and crochet ALL day, as if it were my job!!!

I have a cow to finish… just waiting on my 15 mm eyes to arrive in the mail.

And I’ve started on a unicorn I’m excited about!

Both for my youngest grand daughters.

I need to get OUTTA THIS BED… RIIIIIIGHT NOW!!!

Work calls! ☎️

Life has a way of showing you what’s truly important.

Having dreams and aspirations were good. But being available to and for my family, making memories has proven to be the greatest currency!

I’m far wealthier than any tycoon!

Why is it, when I’m looking the most basic, a random man will comment on how good I look. 🤣

I am so upset right now. Someone is playing with me about fixing my washer.

I love looking back at old pictures and videos of my family, and getting tickled when remembering what was happening .

Like, why Rylee was blowing out a candle on a slice of cake, on Trent’s bday.

The way my Suga babies have grown in 3 years. 🥲

I had the bright idea to log into my very first blog.

Blogger was the first platform I used. And then I logged into Wordpress where I moved it to.

All 1,015 posts are still there between the two platforms.

I am too tickled.

Tomorrow I’ll log into my last blog.

Twelve weeks to my daughter’s wedding…

I still need to:
• Find a dress
• Host the shower
• LOSE 20 lbs. 😳

Yea… that last one gonna be a hit or miss. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

It’s soooo windy right now, all I want to do is go home and fly my kite!!!

[LaTonya Richardson @AlwaysLaTonya]

A hot flash hit me so hard, I had to end class, and sit down!!!

It has taken me ALL DAY to wash, and twist my husbands locs. Literally, all day!

[LaTonya Richardson @AlwaysLaTonya]

My mama called me during the middle of the day as I was walking into my class.

I walked right back out, telling my class “hold on, it’s my mama.”

Just her calling during the day triggers me. Seriously…😩

[LaTonya Richardson @AlwaysLaTonya]

It’s the 6th week of the year, and I’m about to go to my 5th funeral. 😩

[LaTonya Richardson @AlwaysLaTonya]

I want BBQ! GOOD bbq!!!

[LaTonya Richardson @AlwaysLaTonya]

I want to stay home and be creative!

There are a lot of things swirling around in my mind.

[LaTonya Richardson @AlwaysLaTonya]

My mom is sick, and her dog is trying his best to be near her.

[LaTonya Richardson @AlwaysLaTonya]

My aunt is out here doing the damn thing creating an entire funeral program in Microsoft Word!

When this is over, I’m going to teach her @Canva!

I bought these high waisted wide legged pants off TikTok. I hope they’re what they say they are. 🙏🏾
