Being an adult is like carrying a huge ball of laundry, you think you’ve got everything under control until you look back and see all of your socks scattered across the floor.

Over The Hill-ish

I’m going to be turning 40 this year. The big 4-0. 20×2. 4 centuries. You get the picture.

I know I know. I don’t look a day over 25. Good genes I guess. Black don’t crack and all.

I almost never celebrate my birthday. I may acknowledge it but never have any type of thing or shindig around it. It’s just another day. This time is different. I’m going to celebrate my birthday and the new year in…

Okay so remember earlier when I said I’d explain more about where I’ve been later? Well here’s the work part of it.

Federal prosecutors in New York have issued a subpoena seeking documents from Donald Trump's inaugural committee. A spokeswoman says the committee intends to cooperate with the inquiry. She said the committee received the subpoena late Monday and was reviewing it. It was not immediately clear which documents have been requested. The Wall Street Journal reported last year that federal prosecutors are investigating whether inaugural committee donors made contributions in exchange for political favors. The newspaper said the inquiry also was focused on whether the inauguration misspent money it raised to stage inaugural events. The New York Times reported recently that federal prosecutors are examining whether anyone from Qatar, Saudi Arabia or other Middle Eastern countries made illegal payments to the committee and a pro-Trump super political action committee. #trump #investigation https://www.instagram.com/p/Bte2dAAlUKx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f08ckjf21uwj

Taken from her West Africa village and dragged in chains to the coast, 11-year-old Aminata Diallo is sold into slavery. After a horrific ocean crossing to South Carolina, she uses her midwifery skills to survive while keeping at bay the attention of slave master Robinson Appleby. Though she finds some happiness -- she marries and has a child -- Aminata vows to return home after she and her child are sold to different owners. The onset of the Revolutionary War helps Aminata flee her new owner in New York. Knowing how to read and write, she lands a job registering Black Loyalists for escape to freedom in Nova Scotia. Though her heart longs for home, Aminata weighs desire against the need to help her people and end the slave trade. #hulu #blackhistory #BLM #huluwithmyboo https://www.instagram.com/p/BtY_IlUFZTH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=132t4iz21mdl9
