Caison Michael at his soccer game. We were getting ready to leave, and I just had to snag a photo of him. Look at his smile! I just love my little Munchkin Man! Saturday, May 03, 2025. Photo Credit: Tremaine L. Loadholt

Contemplative Tre: My neighborhood has a new playground and dog-bark park now. The complex is huge, so to have these additions blows my mind. I was taking a bit of a rest since we walked at least a 1/2 mile to get to it. Jernee was sniffing around, as you can see in the photo below. Saturday, May 03, 2025. Photo Credit: Tremaine L.

The Little Monster just had to be sure everything was in tip-top shape. LOL! Saturday, May 03, 2025. Photo Credit: Tremaine L. Loadholt
I wanted so badly to go inside and play, but my knees were like, “Honey Bunny, don’t you dare!” LOL! Saturday, May 03, 2025. Photo Credit: Tremaine L. Loadholt
Sunday dinner. Honey-glazed chicken, mixed veggies (peas, carrots, and onions), and thinly sliced seasoned baked potatoes. Sunday, May 04, 2025. Photo Credit: Tremaine L. Loadholt

I love going to Caison’s games. It doesn’t matter which sport it is, I try my best to get to as many as I can. Jaidy is supposed to be playing basketball next season, and I will be at as many of her games as I can make it to, also. Friday night was peaceful. Saturday morning was intense with my workout before getting ready for the soccer game. Sunday was a day I needed and did not know it. Overall, it was a peaceful yet fulfilling weekend. I hope this week has been and will be more than kind to all of you!


Have you gotten your copy of my new book: a collection of serial tales & flash fiction, Séduire (E-Book and Paperback) yet?

I recently signed up to write on Substack as well. Poking the Bear’s Belly for Fun is a place of healing as I speak about the most recent events with my place of employment as it pertains to racism and discrimination. I welcome your visit.

Peace and Blessings!

Every weekend is a gift. I am enjoying each one as they’re handed down to me, and I look forward to them now so much more than before. I hope this week will be kind to all of you!

I am grateful for laughter and all the things that help me grow.

Autumn relaxation and football Sunday

humidity sits on the
sidelines, jealous of the
calming sun.

the dog and I walk to
loosen up my shady knee.
her little hips wobble and
creak, but she presses on.

we’re both breaking down
in different places, but Autumn
lets us relax in ways we
never dreamed we would.

I, eyes glued to the TV,
watching men violently crash
into one another for the grip
of tightened leather.
she, asleep for most of
the day, no worries on the
horizon.

we found ourselves comforted
by Sunday’s kiss and Autumn’s
embrace–we sunk into an
ocean of quietude, blended with
satisfaction, and stayed there
until evening made its
appearance.

neither one of us is
ready for Monday.
but it’s coming anyway.

Sha’Carri To Paris: Richardson SCORCHES 100m Trials Final

This is what was trending in my “For You To View” videos this morning.

As a former track competitor, I cry every single time I watch Sha’Carri compete. I cannot adequately put into words what her race to the Olympics means to me.

I am overjoyed and ecstatic that she gets to experience Paris, France in this way; especially alongside her teammates, too.

And the embrace she received from her grandmother and love pouring out from her family toward the end really did me end, too! I felt every moment of that embrace deep in my bones.

I didn’t expect to cry happy tears this morning, but here we are.

Happy Sunday, beautiful people!

Peace and blessings.
