'Round Ki's Way

  2025 is coming to a rapid closing, and while the year had a lot going on there were also some very good moments.  I will be eating 12 grapes and sprinkling some lentils for 2026! Perimenopause  can come in to your life like a thief in the night, and one thing about it nothing is tolerated and the patience is very short.  Crazy thing is it begins for some people much earlier then expected.  I say all of that to say the mood swings, hot flashes, irregular period, and sleep issues require women to be left alone 🤷🏾‍♀️.  Dealing with perimenopause sometimes you have to laugh before you commit a crime lol.  So men next time you are attracted to a woman that is possibly dealing with perimenopause think about the fact that she has no patience and does not feel like playing those stupid games with you.  Just leave her alone if there are no intentions or business there 🙄.  Another thing in life is being this adult that we rushed to become.  S...

As I was driving out of town this blog hit me, and now that I'm a passenger seat princess here we are.... I'm gonna start this blog with a little personal story (this is not a recent story so mind the business that's yours lol) A wild November day. So boom me and ole boy in all kinds of love (toxic af but we live and learn). So my period late so I'm panicking cause who pregnant?! I'm grown af, but a potential pregnancy is WILD 🤯. MULTIPLE pregnancy tests were positive.  I'm freaking out crying, and I call my lil sis who was in San Francisco on vacay at the time. Cause wtf I look like processing this alone. So she blown like "noooooo what you gonna do." So I'm like girl please we (him and I) gonna experience our 1st abortion together 🤷🏾‍♀️. So I tell him and this fool acting excited and gonna say "if it's a boy we really gotta keep it." Man I lost it cause boy you real life slow who tf knows the gender of a baby this early 🥴. Man I...

 I was driving and this blog post was on my mind heavy so here we are y'all. Follow me though don't let the title scare you. So my therapist said during a therapy session "take that energy that you give to support others and pour into you and what's truly important to you!"  That statement resonated so much because as people a lot of the time we give, give, give until there is no more left. Then when we go through something or need something we feel let down. Sometimes we have to take back OUR power and give it to our self. Life is real and stress kills rapidly these days 🤦🏾‍♀️!   Now this getting the 50/50 out of here and I'm not referencing bills nor household duties. What I'm talking about is relationships, friendships, fellowship, and any ship that is important in your life. We think that everything has to be 50/50 when in reality we should be bringing 100% to these things. If I'm a friend why wouldn't I bring 100% to my friendship...

I'm going to start by saying I'm thankful I was able to celebrate living 38 wonderful years on this Earth 🥳. To all of my family, friends, and everyone I appreciate the birthday love, gifts, texts, FB posts and all of that! Now on to the blog post I think it's a good one and not talked about enough. As kids the word "friend" was very loose. As we learned and grew the word became VERY important and used less. I'm going to be all the way REAL I wasn't always a good friend simply because when I would keep it real with friends my delivery was off. I was a say what it is and that's it, but I had to learn there is a way to say things without making it hurt so much (although sometimes it is needed).   The last 5 years taught me you can be the most amazing friend to someone, and they really just might not be that for you nor know how to accept real friendship and genuine care. Hurt people most times hurt people and there are a lot of folks living in surv...

  Listen this is how most of us new grownups feel these days.  Life been life'n and so much craziness has been going on.  Let's get into the bullshit, the good shit, and this bumpy ride 😂. We always strive for more and to keep progressing in life right?  June 2023 the position I wanted became available in my area (it is territory based due to travel) so of course I applied.  Due to some company logistics they wanted to offer it, but couldn't.  November 2023 a new one came open and I applied, created my presentation and had my interview and presented my presentation.  Felt good afterwards and waited to hear.  They offered me the position and that pay increase had me like bitch you did that!   Ohhhhhhh baby this is where the good takes the turn and has me like I know they not playing in my fuckin face like this.  February 2024 I was minding my business and in the field working in Huntersville, NC.  We get a random meeting on our...

It's been a long time how's everyone been?!  Life can be so busy and I have neglected my baby (this blog).  So I will update on what I have been up to lately because I know y'all nosey af 😂. September 18, 2018 I started Accutane (Absorica 80mg a day) I felt this was the best route for me since I balanced my hormones.  Accutane is definitely not for everyone, ,but it did work great for me! November 2018 traveled to Tokyo Japan for a week while still on Accutane!  Best trip ever and the ramen OMG can't wait to go back.   January 22, 2019 my last day taking Accutane!  Great thing is I hit my cumulative dosage in 4 months and not 5-6 months so I finished early. February 2019 until the present trying to live my best life!!! Accutane effects literally began day two of taking the medication and man the dry lips, corners of the lips cracking, and body aches aren't for the weak.  It was an experience that I don't regret, but I wa...
