March Madness (And I’m Not Talking Basketball)

Listen.

This winter?

Ghetto.

I don’t care what nobody says.

One day it’s 12 degrees with wind that feels like it personally hates you. The next day it’s snowing sideways like the weather got an attitude problem. Then boom — random blizzard like Cleveland said, “Oh you thought we was done?”

Ma’am.

My skin been in survival mode since November. Shea butter working overtime. Grapeseed oil fighting for its life. I’ve been moisturized but emotionally irritated.

And don’t get me started on walking outside and the air slaps the sh$t out of you

Winter 2026 really tried it.

Now Here Comes March with her Funky A$$.

And here comes that little fake a$$ spring energy.

You wake up and it’s still cold — but the sun is peeking like, “Hey girl. " So you think its kind of warm. Then you walk outside and damn die because it's still 20 degrees.

And you remember…

It’s almost time to spring ahead.

Which means:

• We lose an hour of sleep 😒

• But we gain light ☀️

And honestly? I’ll take it.

Because something about light hitting at 7:30pm just does something to my spirit. It makes you feel productive. It makes you feel hopeful. It makes you believe maybe… just maybe… you can deep clean your house and reorganize your whole life in one weekend.

(You won’t. But the light makes you believe you can fly LOL.)

But Can We Talk About These Grocery Prices Though?

Because why am I paying luxury car note prices for orange juice?

Why does a regular grocery trip feel like I just invested in the stock market?

You walk in for “just a few things” and somehow, it’s $247.32.

For what???

Chicken.

Milk.

Fruit.

And frost bite.

And summer ain't even here yet.

We still got — what — about 90 something days until official summer? Ninety days of unpredictable weather, layered outfits, and arguing with the thermostat.

But listen…

We survived the darkest part.

We survived the ice.

We survived the blizzards.

We survived seasonal mood swings.

We survived some other things I won't mention in THIS blog...... but it's coming!

Now the light is stretching. The air is shifting. The energy is changing.

And spring always feels like a reset.

Rebellious Reminder

This is your season to:

• Shed what felt heavy.

• Moisturize your skin and your mindset.

• Adjust to the new light.

• And move with intention.

  
  

Yes, we lost an hour.

But we gained brightness.

Yes, groceries still high.

But we still here.

Yes, summer feels far.

But so did March when it was -2 degrees in January.

We’re stepping into longer days. Warmer skin. Lighter moods.

And maybe… just maybe… PEACE that doesn’t depend on the forecast.

Winter was ghetto.

But baby…

Spring coming. 🌷

And we don’t do dark forever over here.

— Rebelliously yours
