It's been a long time coming.

So, I picked up my Essence magazine this month with the beautiful Barack Obama on the cover - The black woman's bible, as it were. And, then I cried. As black people, we have been waiting a long time for change. Now it's here, but what does it mean. My life has changed in that I quit my job (kinda), and I'm concerned about saving money. The economy also shed 500,000 jobs last month. Great. I'm not worried. I was, but after my awesome friends have told me how awesome I am, I feel much better.

I also discovered the virtue of Shopper's Food Warehouse. Don't knock it until you try it. More than anything, I'm trying to find my way in the world. When people ask me what I want to do -I just don't know - give the world a cookie, heal once child at a time. The answer, do good and do well. I'm just not, at this point in my life, going to kill myself. I think that's totally fair. Now, after a year and a half of 10-12-14 hour days, I'm just left with myself. I hope I can put together the broken pieces and move forward. Change - yes, it is coming.

Oh yeah, my old blog- Damsel in DC, is done. But I'm going to be changing this name here soon. Should it be. 1. Afrobabe - 2. Georgia Peach -Fresh. Ripe. Juicy 3. Auctoritas -nah, I'll save that for my consulting business.
