Happy Happy Birthday!!!!

Good morning everyone! Today is the big 2-8 and I just wanted to say thank you to everyone here who takes the time to read, comment, participate and just visit this blog. Over the past year and a half it has grown far beyond my wildest expectations. I never imagined so many cool people would even read what I had to say about hair or anything. But you do and you're here and you're awfully supportive to boot! So I am sharing my birthday with all of you and saying thank you so much, you are all sincerely appreciated! I plan to eat cake so even if it is not your birthday, I say go ahead and have cake too! I love you guys!

Celebrating a Centenarian!

This weekend I am traveling to Nashville, TN (which is where I was born!) to visit a second cousin of mine. We will be celebrating her 100th birthday! Yes I said 100! It's pretty amazing. She is of sound body and mind and will be surrounded by friends and family from all over the southeast. The next best part about getting to see her is taking my 88 year old grandmother. When I stop and think about all they have seen in their lives I am overwhelmed. The world has changed dramatically and so many things have happened that they probably thought they would never see like a Black president! It looks like they are not alone since so many people are living longer these days.

I thought this was interesting:


I hope to get some great pics so I will post when we return. Have a great weekend ya'll and take some time to celebrate life! Peace.
