You would think as someone who works in the travel industry I would know how to spell “itinerary” when I tell you it have that red line under it every time. I mean every time 🤣🤣🤣

Good morning to all the people. Except y’all who can wake up without an alarm and still be on time… because my body clock is off!

Hey y’all 💚 this may be a little long…

I haven’t finished a crochet project this year, I’ve started 6, yet every time I put yarn and hook in hand it’s like my crojo has disappeared. Could it be that this season of my crochet life has come to an end 😞. Say it aint so. I very much still love the art of crochet and have so many ideas that I want to bring to life via hook and yarn but life is lifing and so I figured I should take a moment to reintroduce myself—and be real about where I am and what I am doing in this season of my life.

These days, I’m navigating new terrain:

The biggest being starting motherhood over again in my 40s and 🧩 Parenting a child on the spectrum with more intention.

💻 Adjusting to a new work-from-home job. I am grateful that my crochet work was able to sustain my lifestyle for over 7 years and even more blessed that when I made the decision to go back to work God gave me exactly what I asked for (flexible schedule, work from home, and travel perks)🙏🏾 I’m still getting use to having to clock in and out 🤣

📦 Exploring new ways to earn online (hello TikTok Shop affiliate life 👀) She is still an entrepreneur at heart and especially when we talking about making passive income, because we all know in this economy you have to have multiple streams of income. Ive been in the program for just over a year it definitely jas some pros and cons howevin in all the ways that I have made money online this has been the easiest.

The content on this page may be shifting but know that it is always 100% me. You can still expect authenticity, a little humor, real life rebuilding in my 40s, and hopefully some inspiration too. Whether you followed me for yarn, real talk, or a little bit of both—thank you. Truly.

Dear Joann, I’m not about to be in no toxic relationship with you. Don’t be trying to circle the block in a few months 🥴

Turning straight yarn into curly yarn is a tedious process, I used bigger dowels to get the loose wave for this ponytail and it turned out perfect. The Aggies have been keeping me busy but I have a FAMU and Clark Atlanta custom coming soon.
