l hate kids , I love to write blog articles and watch Netflix but by the time I'm off work and completed my house duties I can barely keep my eyes open while trying to type up an article. I work as a teacher and I wake up at 5 am because I have to be to work at 7 am. I get off work at 3:00 but with the crazy school traffic and everything I don't end up getting home until 4:00. I get home cook dinner ( normally gumbo) finish cooking dinner around 7 then take a bath and get my clothes washed dried and ironed which takes till 9 then that only leaves me with only an hour to hang out with my boyfriend I hang out with him until 10. I try to do my makeup or watch Netflix but I'm too exhausted for any of that. I can barely wake up in the mornings time I'm always five minutes late for work because it's so hard for me to get out the bed. I wonder because this is my first time working a real job is this why I'm so tired. I started working this as my real job in August. On the weekends I work in retail at target leaving me for virtually no time for leisure activities friends family barely have time for boyfriend. I only see him for one hour for two days out the week. Working two jobs is the only way I can afford to live in my apartment. If I was just a teacher I wouldn't be able to afford my apartment I make very little money as a teacher and not only that I have to pay for all of the teaching supplies all of the dry erase markers boards pencils pens etc.

2 black girls 18 and 23 are married into the same racist family to 2 1st cousins. The 23 year old light skin, sweet, innocent and is treated like an angel on earth. The 18 year old darker skin, taller, thicker, not innocent in the least, is only accepted by the males in the family. The 23 year old is coddled so much due to how folks have victimized her in past and is a mother of 3 but is treated like an innocent baby with the whole racist family babying her. The 18 year old was allowed to fight a man without backup and someone touched the other one they would probably die if. The 18 year old was defending a 14 year old in law from a drunk in front of the whole family but no one thought to help her in anyway but her husband as they watched her get her mouth bloodied and did nothing.
