35 & Up Problems: The Fan, a Necessary Accessory

I have a problem. I’m hot. I sweat, constantly. even on a not-so-hot day fresh out of the shower. If there’s a whisper of humidity then mountain dew* springs forth  speckling skin  in dampness. So now I arm myself. I carry a fan. I prefer folding fans for convenient carriage but you can get a …

Essential items for my Bolt to NY for my very 1st Fashion Week NY experience. Will be blogging all about it backstage at the Nina Skarra fashion show Saturday.

“My life, my life, my life, my life in the sunshine…” ☀️
Good Sunday y’all! Enjoy the ☀️ ✌🏾 & 💜
Happy Solar Return to my mama. She instilled in me a love of books & a desire to write. I give thanks for her creativity & cooking, two major survival skills I’ve used throughout my adult years. She’s taught me how to persevere through the difficulties that life will most certainly present. Dolores I am grateful for you.💜
Yo! Y’all gifted me a dope ass birthday playlist 📻 I’ve been sipping Prosecco, cooking, & playing music. Hit up my stories to hear a sample of the mix. I really appreciate y’all’s generosity. If you’ve got 🍎 music & want me to forward to you DM me. ✌🏾 & 💜
Tonight while partaking in an old school party line w/ a few of my peoples my homegirl said, ‘tell folks to suggest a song for your birthday then make a playlist.’ Music is the gift that keeps on giving. Cija’s Birthday Party Line is now official. So far suggestions range from Wutang’s Can it All Be So Simple to KC & The Sunshine Band’s Boogie Shoes, 10,000 Maniacs’ These are the Days, & Lisa-Lisa & Cult Jam’s Take You Home. Drop a song title below & I’ll add to my list. There are no rules, just go w/ what you feel. ✌🏾 & 💜
My phone jus sent me a medley of photos of my Mom. This one came up & I had to share. I ADORE this pic of her & Bone. I know she misses her poochie poo💜 …I hope she doesn’t mind me sharing cause I think she’s beautiful ☺️
Hi Y’all! Morning walk & ☀️= elevated mood. Been having the blues lately, so glad to be lifted. Get outside if you can. ✌🏾 & 💜
On this day back in 2008 you joined the ancestors. I wish I could hear your laugh again, but whenever I want to conjure it I watch Seinfeld or Martin, or Dirty Rotten Scoundrels & remember all of your favorite parts ☺️ R.I.P. Arnaz Jefferson aka Dad 💜
