Today’s Black History Month Chronicles… I’ve been invited to the International Civil Rights Center Museum Gala for the past few years and, each time, it’s been reinforced why I can’t turn a blind eye to injustice. Most of the time, my guest to the Gala is Pic 1, Denise James. Last year, her knee wouldn’t allow… Continue reading 02.03.2020

Today’s High School Registration Chronicles… Another informative AAMPED session and another disappointing number of attendees. The organizers work hard to provide info/services outside of what schools offer. Don’t quote me (as some of you have lately 👀🙄), but programs like this usually operate from grant funding. Funders decide their grant amounts based on outcomes which include… Continue reading 01.29.2020

Today’s Mothering Chronicles… Want to see a decline in job performance, workplace attitudes and engagement (in any organization) with women? Speak negatively about them becoming mothers and/or being mothers. Witnessed and heard of insults related to a pregnant mother being told she shouldn’t be as sick as she is and a mother who was talked… Continue reading 01.13.2020

Today’s “Just Mercy” Chronicles… I didn’t want to blog about this because I didn’t want to offer spoilers. I learned a while ago, my disdain for reading came from me not liking made up stories; I like facts. I also learned I either like to read the book and be done or see the movie… Continue reading 01.11.2020

Today’s WSSU MSEN Volunteer Chronicles cont’d/Work Chronicles… The sweet family in Pic 1 were so happy there was a Dewey’s Store that wasn’t crowded. They were our largest sale with purchasing 10 sugar cakes and the little lady was ecstatic to get her gift of cookies. Work Chronicles… They must have sensed I was going… Continue reading 12.24.2019 part 2

Today’s WSSU MSEN Volunteer Chronicles… As you can see, I’m volunteering minus Michai. He attended a birthday “sleepover” but didn’t go to sleep until 630a. Needless to say, he didn’t know who I was nor where he was when I woke him up to come here. Oh, but guess who will be at the back… Continue reading 12.22.2019

Today’s Work Chronicles… I rarely post about my full-time job because, well, I need it. ‘Howsoever’ (as my mother says), at our year-end “Town Hall”, we were encouraged to tell the BlueCross North Carolina (BCNC) story. When people ask how long I’ve been with the company, I typically reply, “It’s the longest relationship I’ve ever… Continue reading 12.18.2019

Today’s Work Chronicles… Hospital nurse called to give report for a new admit. Receiving nurse wasn’t answering so I took a message and walked it back to the nurse. The nurse reluctantly took the paper and walked towards the phone. Hospital nurse calls again and says she’s about to be inaccessible for the next 30… Continue reading 12.13.2019 part 2

Today’s Black Women Chronicles… Sent to me by a villager who has been listening to my frustrations. They sent it at the same time I saw Pic 2 in my memories. There’s more to this, stay tuned…
