Happy Friday and cheers to the weekend. This has been one troubling week. Between the news and stress it’s been one bumpy ride. Happy National Stress Awareness too! We know that stress kills so make sure you check out the blog. So what went down? Let’s get into it!
Birthday Explosions
April is a busy month in the family. From my Aunt, Sister-In-Love, Niece, and Grandmother it’s been one birthday after another. My Grandfather’s birthday is in a few days too! Birthdays just popping out the woodwork! So happy birthday to all of my family and friends!
Devaluing Black Lives
The saga continues when the price on a Black and Brown people have less and less value everyday! The trial of Derek Chauvin has been a roller coaster. I have purposely not watched it in his entirety. I haven’t even watched a full day. For the purpose of self-care I’m more or less about the highlight. Its not that I don’t care because I truly do, I just can’t. The trauma is too much. I’m praying for the trauma of all who have had to watch this unfold. The video of the shooting of Adam Toledo has set me over the edge. Add in the confrontation from Jonathan Pentland and you have a week of trauma that I need to decompress from!

Lola’s Garden
I had the opportunity to go to Lola’s Garden’s media celebration. It was so good seeing a small gathering. Although not at a full capacity it was pretty beautiful to see us all in the building. Lola’s Garden is your one stop shop for great small bites, entrees, sandwiches, and more. Read the catch up here on the blog!

This Week’s Podcast
This week we discussed the news in conversation of what we should be doing to protect ourselves. We discussed this week’s self-care too. Make sure with the way life is set up that you take that time out to be clear on what you want and what you want to do. Happy podcast listening.
Happy Friday and have a great weekend! I hope that your weekend is rejuvenating and you do at least one thing for yourself!
