Growing up my mom was often quite fearful. Yet she was very brave. Let me explain. I grew up in the South Bronx. It was not necessarily the safest area for a young girl or many others. Things have since changed but there was fear of crime in […]
Last weekend I woke up a bit sleepy and groggy. Which is to be expected. That’s what the weekend is supposed to be feel like. Check! I woke up around 6:00am or so and grabbed my phone. How very 2019! I immediately went on Twitter as that is […]
For some unfathomable reason, I have been binging on the television show NCIS: Los Angeles. I am now into season six. There’s apparently ten seasons and each have 24 episodes. That’s an awful lot of binging coming up. I suppose if one goes by a stricter definition of […]
