(Aside: This book was shipped to me with Wayward Saints as the addressee, causing my stepmother and sister to inquire as to whether I'd joined a cult.)

Today is a new day.  It is not yesterday, and it is not tomorrow.  This election

had friends, neighbors, coworkers, family, religions, bloggers, the entire

country divided.  There were mean-spirited arguments from both sides just as

So I am going to be a lottery winner.  I'm just letting you know, in case I am gone for a while.  I wouldn't want you to worry about me.  But if I win, I will be taking a small break from my blog to make media appearances and shop like crazy.  I don't mean Bentley and Masserati shopping, but you can bet your ass, I will shop the SHIT out of Target.  I'll have them close the store for me, so I can shop without Target Mom and little…

Hailing from a humble background, Ms. Josephine Mbasso Ezoy has always been passionate about education. But early in life the chapter closed: at 14, she lost her father, and she was given for marriage.
