Ladies,
we all have ways we prepare ourselves for that monthly visit from Auntie Flo! I
know I sure do. Whether I am throwing extra pads or pain meds in my purse I’m
always tracking my period, so she doesn’t just surprise me unexpectedly. I’m
that girl who tracks her cycle and takes extra precautions around that time of
the month.
I have
been blogging on my personal for two and a half years. I made the transition
from being a gossip blogger to a lifestyle/personal blogger in the spring of
2016. My gossip site covered everything black celebrity gossip and it was
called Gossip in Da’ Gumbo. I was inspiring to become a gossip blogger at the
time by Necole Kane, The Jasmine Brand, and Rhymes with Snitch. My personal
life was in shambles. I had no friends and was suffering from depression
weekly.

The ride back to my hometown to visit my mother took me on a whirlwind of emotions. I was excited, anxious, and emotional. It’s been 9 months since I have been in my mother’s presence. She hasn’t had the opportunity to see her first grandbaby either until today. As my husband drove and the closer we have gotten to Napoleonville I felt like I was making the right decision. It has been months of wanting to see my mother interact with her grandbaby.
