Not Enough Chairs at the Table
There weren't enough chairs at the table this Thanksgiving, but I don't think anyone else noticed it. I mean, there were chairs for everyone that was expected: my mother-in-law of course, since it was her house! My sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, nieces, nephews, me and my husband. We were all seated around the expanded wooden table in an assortment of dining, office, and folding chairs.

The Pink Bed
The bed, a quintessential piece of furniture, serves as an oasis of relaxation in the sanctuary of our homes. Its primary purpose is to provide a comfortable and inviting space where individuals can unwind and rejuvenate after a long day. With its soft mattress, plush pillows, and cozy blankets, the bed becomes a haven for rest and repose, offering a respite from the demands of daily life. As we sink into its embrace, the stresses of the day gradually melt away, and the body finds solace in the gentle contours of the mattress. The bed is not merely a piece of furniture; it transforms into a personal sanctuary where one can escape the hustle and bustle of the outside world, promoting mental and physical well-being through the simple act of relaxation.

As Told By: A Black Woman Who Fucked Up the Mac & Cheese
For generations the Washington family has put our foot in Thanksgiving meals and our holidays would always end with our bellies filled, a tad bit drunk and a bad case of the itis (if you know, you know) times have changed since the pandemic and the head-chefs-in-charge cooking matriarchs Grandma and Auntie are getting older and slower (aunt is just lazy) to be honest, everyone could cook but NOBODY and I mean NOBODY could throw down on Mac and cheese like granny. Granny’s traditional Mac and cheese making comes with a harsh story.

Work whoops. Content Warning.
The office buzzed with the usual Monday morning chaos as I hurriedly made my way to my desk, coffee in hand. The week ahead stretched before me like uncharted territory, and I was ready to tackle it head-on. Little did I know, the universe had a different plan in store for me—a work whoops that would turn my meticulously planned week into a whirlwind of laughter, embarrassment, and unexpected joy.

Angel Numbers Are Real. Content Warning.
Growing up in the small town of Jackson, Tennessee, shaped my upbringing in profound ways. The cornerstone of my childhood was my mother, a devout born-again Christian, who instilled in us the importance of faith. Church became an integral part of our lives, even though my siblings and I didn't always feel ready for the lessons that awaited us.

God Will Give Me What I Need
Hello Lil’ Sis & Lil’ Will, Just got done with morning chores – picking up the rooms, etc. So am sitting down with my first glass of H2O. So hard for me to drink water. Since I’ve been putting on Maggie’s stuff (ointment), I’m sleeping pretty good, don’t wake up with terrible pain, but my arms are still sore – like can’t reach behind me (like pulling up my pants – very important!). I read on my old Mentholatum jar – that's old – Leroy used it on the farm yet – well anyway – it says the same thing that Maggie’s remedy says. It dawned on me – why didn’t I go to the health store?
