I hope you are up and doing something other than sleeping and doomscrolling. And if that is what you are doing, that is fine too, because sometimes a little scrolling is the only thing we have the energy for. #realtalk
I almost started scrolling this internet myself, but I stopped, because I have so much to do. I am not joking when I say this year has been a lot. #lifeislifing
So if you know you need to finish something before December 31, 2025, this is your reminder to go ahead and get to it.
It is Saturday, and I am taking this day personally. That means I am doing nothing but what brings me relaxation. I know you probably thought I was about to say joy or happiness, but not today, or at least not at this moment.
I think I understand what I need now; either I get it, or I don’t, because it is time for me to nip some things in the bud. It is time for me to bloom and do the things I want at 50-something.
This weekend is a simple one. I am going over a few things for Aging Notes, which is my space for grown woman thoughts on getting older as a Black woman.
Then I will write a new post for Wear What The Funk You Want and share something connected to Funky Grunge Boutique, because yes, there will be a drop this week. I am only giving myself one hour for these things, and that is enough.
If you ever wonder who I am, here you go, this is my personal online journey where I document everything. And it keeps me grounded because all work and no play is just not living at all. I post mainly on my blogs because I am a blogger, vs. a video vlogger.
Also, later on today, I will be going down the street to have ube matcha with the hubs before he heads to work. After that, I may work on another bag before dropping more next week.
Here is the thing people forget: you have to have something to live for. You cannot get upset when others work on their visions and dreams while you sit still and do nothing.
Life is moving fast, and we all need something that gives us purpose and makes us happy to wake up and live life. Yes, it’s that simple.
If I stop working on the things I love, I would be an unhappy soul. #realtalk
I am a creative woman, and I will not sit on the sidelines of my own life. Realizing, I am fifty-four, not twenty-four, and the clock on my happiness and success is moving right along with me.
Honestly, I enjoy watching people who are doing something with their lives. That is why I love a good vlog or blog, because I want to see people flourish, especially Black women. They do not have to teach me anything, because I have my own ideas. I just want to support people who are living their best lives, because that is what life is about.
My schedule is as follows: Today, I will not clean, cook, or take in anything that drains me. No doomscrolling, no heavy news from socials, no negativity. It is too much, and I would rather use my time on something I enjoy.
So, I am looking for some old-school movies to watch while I sit on my sofa and eat junk food.
That is the perfect weekend for me. Here’s to doing absolutely nothing. :)
If you have a blog or vlog you want to share, leave it in my comments and I may add it to one of my posts. Even if you are simply a reader, introduce yourself.
That is my weekend in a nutshell. What are you doing?
Until next time, live life beyond existing.
