Living Richer

So as I stated in previous blogs, I'm changing the way I do things. I locked my hair, I'm eating healthier (kind of) and I am changing my perspective. I am trying to live, but man sometimes it gets so hard to motivate myself. I do it all the time but I realized that I can't do this thing by myself. I had to do a self evaluation to see if I had the right people in my circle. I got a good 3 people (not including my husband) who really have my back. Like they really hold me down. These are the ones that I know I can call and let it all hang out and have a no judgment zone. I love that God gave me them. I have two healthy children, even with dealing with the youngest one's hearing loss, we're still good. My husband and I are in a good place. I've been with that man for some years and the older we become, the more I appreciate him, admire him, and love him. We are far from perfect, but we are perfect together. We complement each other and hold one another down. I'm getting my credit and finances in order. I've made amends and truly forgiven my parents. I can honestly say that I am living richer. 


I wish I could sing like Jill Scott because I would sing this song everywhere I go. There was a time when I did not feel like this. I did not like who I was, I did not like my appearance, I did not like me. Now at the tender age of 33, I love me some me! There's not a person around who can tell me about myself. Gone are the days where I care what others think of me. Those opinions are null and void. Besides, I got too much going on to be around Debbie Downers, Petty Patties and Tough Tonies. I refuse to live my life in the ridicule of others and be subject to their miserable lives and provide them company. 

 So my advice to you, just do you. Live this life the best you can remembering that people will judge you and that's okay. My grandmother used to say, people will always talk about you, not like you and so on but it's not what they say and what they call you, it's how you respond and who you answer to. Be easy, be blessed and live your best life.

 Remember to Live Richer!

Another Witty Saturday

My oldest son playing with Photo Booth on my Mac Book So today is Saturday and like all Saturdays, my day starts at the crack of dawn with two little people acting as though the world is going to end because they are "dying from hunger" as my 8 year old says. So I get up as usual and cook breakfast for my little people. This time it was french toast, turkey bacon and eggs. We have turkey bacon and eggs for every breakfast because my husband caught a deal and bought out the whole store. So I try to be creative with this unending supply of poultry. This time my creativity only led me to french toast, but hey everyone was happy so that's all that matters. After breakfast, we start our Saturday cleaning. My 8 year old came up with this "clever" idea to get paid to do his chores...."where they do that at"??? When I was a kid, the only payment we got was not getting popped in the mouth for saying which chore we didn't want to do. After that la...

My New Adventure

Image
I am so excited to announce that I am a Freelance Writer!!! Well Besides my personal and inspirational blogs, I am a published writer on a website called logospost.com! I am too geeked..whoop whoop! It's crazy how life has a way of bringing things into perspective. I quit a stressful job. Quitting that job was the best decision I've made. The money was awesome, but it was not worth the stress that came with it. Since quitting my job, I started back with my writing. I am not doing this to get rich, I am doing it because I enjoy it. I was told that if you do what you love, you will never have to work a day in your life. I am not sure where this adventure will take me, but I am so looking forward to this ride!
