It was an uncharacteristically beautiful weekend. 78°. In February…no less! But the weekend itself…was less than beautiful.
Back in the day, Bernie and I used to take weekend road trips. From the ATL, to Pigeon Forge, TN., to Quebec. We had a ball. So, as our way of reconnecting in our 19-year marriage and prioritizing the fun in our marriage, Bernie and I decided to restart our weekend road trips.
At the recommendation of some of you guys, Norfolk, Va. was our destination this particular beautiful 78° weekend. How was our trip? Well…you know it’s gonna be a janky weekend when you walk into your Downtown Norfolk Courtyard Marriot hotel room and you see a case of beer, a pair of pantyhose, and someone’s bag of clothes already in the room.
We salvaged the weekend by hanging out with a pair of #QoolQouples tho. Watch episode one of our new series…#QoolQouplesQonquer Road Trip.

Stop Apologizing for Being Who You Are
What I won’t do…is apologize for being me. I definitely won’t apologize for feeling the way I do. And I most certainly won’t apologize for doing what God put me on earth to do. I guess I’ve been emboldened by U.S. House Representative Alcee Hastings. In a committee...
FELLAS, Stop Waiting so Long to Get Married!
Dear Fellas, On no day will I understand why black men wait so long to get married. The US Census Bureau shows, on average, every other race, both men and women, get married between 26 and 29. But you wait till you’re nearly 31. And for-real tho, who they countin’?...
Why Men Look at Other Women (an explanation not a justification)
in her late 40s/early 50s was on a date with her gentleman-friend at a semi-formal event. They were holding hands. But his neck was on swivel…looking at woman after woman. She noticed it but didn’t say anything at the moment. She...
Your Wife’s a Helpmate, but Here’s 15 Ways You Can Help Her
I asked, “If she’s the help-mate, then isn’t she supposed to follow my lead?” My Pastor responded, “As the leader, you’re supposed to take the lead in showing her how to be a servant by serving her.” Stunned! Mouth open! I never looked at being the head of the house...
Is There Such a Thing as a “Side Dude”?
So I’m having lunch with two post-college young ladies I’ve known since they were children. They’re cousins. Let’s call them Mia (23) and Tina (21). I’m doing my ‘so how’s life’ check up I regularly do with them. The topic of men comes up. Mia says, “You’ve heard of a...
