Monday, Monday

It is Monday.

THAT IS ALL.

lol

That's how I feel right about now.

Tha L, proprietor of the Blackrageous blog, cooked up breakfast this weekend.

Somebody come over here and hook that up, minus the soy sausage. I don't like soy sausage. Just do the grits and eggs and those biscuits. I'll just lay in bed.

Bring it on in here to me. Thank you. Much Obliged.

I STILL haven't gotten caught up when it comes to the spring forward madness. I am going to sleep super late (last night I went to sleep at one in the morning). I sleep well, but I am a groggy mess in the morning.

Kentucky leaves the house every weekday morning at six o'clock. She is my alarm system. In the past, I get up when I hear her leaving. I get my reading done, then any little writing and blogging done.

But the last two weeks, I've simply turned over and gone back to sleep. Thereby busting up my MUCH needed morning routine.

So now, I am still in the bed. A lazy Oldgirl.

I'm going into work later today. For some reason, there's not much work in the lab. It should be pretty festive around there today, as my director is gone on some 2 month detail on the west coast.

(This is part of the problem at work: management doesn't really man the ship. It's all about them and their career advancement. I won't go into that.)

This will be a short post.

*Chele falls out of chair. Southern Black Gal laughs uncontrollably*

Y'all calm down. It will be short.

I had a FANTASTIC weekend.

Simply fantastic, just how I like it, chock full of activities I simply love. The only thing that would have made it PERFECT was if it hadn't rained on Sunday.

And I have enough pictures for 100 posts, and they are not loaded up yet.

Friday night, I had a Women of Color Writing workshop, headed up by my former bookclub sista Dawnie. That was GREAT. It's writing prompt type of stuff, so I will post a couple of pieces I liked on blog. I've posted pieces here in the past. (Two I remember: "Let Me Explain" and "In this One...")

I did much walking on Saturday. I am a 15 minute walk from the local track that was used as the practice track during the 96 Olympics, so I walked up there, hung out on the track and walked back.

(I tell you, you see some sights in the gentrified hood, lol. VERY interesting.)

Sunday, I had a Triple F Posse meeting. The meeting was waaaaaay out in the sticks. I was almost expecting to see the "Welcome to Alabama" sign. Always good to see the ladies, and I always get a few financial tips in the process.

I even saw a couple of people I haven't seen in a long time. Didn't see my brother, though, which is a disappointment.... he's gone back to Iraq, and I pray for his safe return in six months.

Lots of pictures coming up this week. Might have to do 5 or 6 posts a day, lol. My goal is to get them loaded, and go from there.

Most interesting thing I learned this weekend:

"If you aim at nothing, you'll hit it every time."

Zig Ziglar said that.

Ain't THAT the truth?

Yes it is!

I will be thinking about all week what I am aiming at...

And I plan to take aim... on purpose.

Stay tuned for MANY posts this week.

Ya'll have a great week!!
