Happy MLK day!

My mom tells me when I was a baby I was obsessed with black people, in person on tv, and I always preferred black dolls,much to the confusion of my great grandma. My crushes in elementary school were always on black boys, I had a massive crush on a boy names Heavy with a perfectly sculpted flat top. Every lunchtime his friend would taunt me with "jungle feeeeever".
Something in me must have known I was gonna turn into a fat white lady.

I think I was in 3rd grade, maybe younger, at school we made a mini MLK book. For some reason I kept in in the middle console in the backseat of our car with ripped up kleenex for as long as we had the car it was MLK's grave. Strange child.

I think 2 years ago on this day or maybe it was just Black History Month I was working at a middle school where they had their own little tv station. They had put together a montage of famous african americans and played it during the first period. At the end it said, "Do something nice for an African American today". I was in total shock, surveying the room to see if the kids realized how horrendous that was,paying close attention to the one black kid in the class, maybe 1-5 in the school. Yep everyone knew it was bad, it was retracted the next day.

Not much going on. I had I woke up with a horrid migraine at 5am on Saturday morning. After caffeine,naps,allergy pills, and a darvaset it went away. Now Ed's sick :/ I'm gonna spend some time with my sis later and be of help during a trip to costco. I haven't felt much like sewing during the day, it kicks in later in the evening. Yesterday I walked 1.4 miles to the gym and worked out for a 1/2 hour, including 5 miles in 7 min./level 5 on the recumbent bike. I'm only a lil sore in the tush today. My mom is visiting my grandma and uncle, it's been 3 days :( come home mother<3
