We need to hear more about grief in church. Everything ain’t praise break worthy.

Baby girl had mid year awards and when I say she carrrrrrrried. A/B Honor Roll Highest Math iReady score Highest Reading iResdy score Highest Growth in iReady 5th grade is 5th grading and I’m so proud of my girl!!

The meltdowns people are having over this Grammy win for Beyoncé has given me the best laughs! Full stop: there is NO country music without Black people. Happy Black History Month!!

I miss this girl so bad most days I can’t even think. I got a glimmer of her this week by working with her former work team. Gifts from the otherside. Balm. #griefnotes

Stuck at home with my wife. Couldn’t ask for anything better

I’ve decided to bring back the words & phrases “No count” & “floozy” for 2025. Thanks for your consideration.

Happy New Year!!

This bears games is the pits. My lord.

I’m convinced a lot of folks don’t genuinely like their partners and it shows!!! Every day. Y’all prove me right. Every day.

A note on grief: My favorite uncle has been elevated to ancestor. I haven’t known a world without him and I wasn’t exactly ready to live one. I never expected to live a life without his daughter but here I am. Grief around the holidays is brutal

There is something to be said about how a man treats the mother of his child after they’re no longer married. My daddy will move mountains for my mama. Even today. They’ve been divorced 20+ years.

We have the family gathering house, and while I love it… Auntie is tired. We closed for the next 3 holidays. No more hosting.

Cheetos. My exhusband gave me a box of Cheetos from our child for Christmas.

I won’t check populi for grades today. I won’t check populi for grades today. I won’t check populi for grades today. I’m pressed and I know it. #CandaceGoesToSeminary

Ohhhhhh. How I hear things in the spirit realm. My uncle transitioned this morning and I heard: “Hi Daddy.” In Patrice’s voice. Clear as day. I know my cousin-sister welcomed her daddy home. Thankful for my ancestreal realm. But sad I can’t hug them in the physical.

It is finished. Final Project submitted. This is semester is OVER. #CandaceGoesToSeminary

Spoiled = loved well. The end. No further debate needed.

And just like that… #CandaceGoesToSeminary first semester is complete. Worship planning guide due 12/20 but all papers have been submitted! Thanks be to God!

I was not prepared for Jamie’s special to have me crying like this.
