"I'd like to visit the Civil Rights Museum with my great-grands!" This has been such an exciting summer and I promise, I'm about to get somewhere and sit down. But not before I tell ya'll about this last trip I had to Memphis! I remember being a kid and being super excited for family trips because I could ride in a rental car, sit next to my cousins the whole way and maybe our parents would let us swim in that hotel pool. Ain't it something how life comes full circle? Last weekend, I watched my nephew and nieces experience that same joy of being on the road while their grandparents supplied all the snacks and their parents repeatedly told them to chill. Must be nice. My family had taken us to the Civil Rights Museum as kids but this was my first time there as an adult. I remember seeing the slavery and sit-in exhibit and being sad because black folks were treated so poorly "back then" but we have come a long way and everything was differen

"I don't know them like that, I ain't going." Hello and happy Thursday from a new and improved 30 year old Brit! Well okay fine, I'm still slightly trash but we getting there. Let me tell ya'll something, the past few weeks of my life have been amazing! Ya'll ever took a break from paying bills just to relax? I'm hella poor right now but let me explain... My 20's were a blast! I feel like those years allowed me to get to know myself. You know, take this adult life for a spin and see if I crash (I crashed a few times). Although I had a lot of fun, I did A LOT of stressing. About graduating from college, moving from city to city, apartment to apartment, job to job, how I was going to pay for this or that and where my life was going in general. I did so much of that, until I had forgotten to take time for myself. See? This is why having a dope circle is important. I'm bout to pull up on ya'll with this word, ya'll ready? Photo:
