Crazy in Love...

First off, I would like to thank you for taking the time to park on my page for a little while & entertain my daily craziness ;)

First and foremost, I am a woman, a mother, a friend, a confidant, and a softy... However, my true goal is to be an ambassador to all - to be an ear or two to my friends, acquaintances or passerbys... I wish to leave your life a little better than what it might have been... I hope that I will have made a difference - in a positive way... I am truly gratified by being able to be there for someone in their time of need or joy and in turn learn from others! :)))

You will find that I am a Realtor by trade, however, with a philanthropist mentality...

However, here we will talk about everything under the sun... Follow me as I also chronicle my 'Get Healthy' Journey as Georges and I 'shake it off and firm it up' :) ~ It is Insanity, Baby!

From the "City that Never Sleeps" (New York) yes, thats where I hail from... to another Great City.. Las Vegas - which I now call home. I'm a proud mom of a beautiful 13 year old boy (my inspiration & my reason) and in love with my best friend!

I'm very open & positive and wish to meet people who exude the same kind of Zest for Life!!

your constant companion,

Coffee and Lent...

Since I have gotten back on my game these last two weeks, I have been feeling great!  Every time I laugh or bend over – I feel those lovely pains reminding me that the work I am putting in is paying off J

In line with getting healthier and transforming myself daily… I am considering using the time of Lent as a way to begin my fast.  Lent is not something that is typically recognized in my denomination, however, being that it is a set time – it will work for me and the goals that I wish to achieve – spiritually and physically.  I am going to challenge myself to give up all sweets and dare I say this:::::::: Coffee! Ugh!  So, by sundown today, I will begin… for those who know me very well, this is going to be a challenge!  A very tough one indeed!  However, I am looking forward to a closer walk with my Lord and the health benefits that come along with it will add to my journey.

Also, I have been very interested in starting The Daniel Fast – since, I have not prepared myself for it (as they suggest you do) I was thinking that I might start it a week into Lent to allow my body the time to adjust accordingly.  Though I must say… many of the foods they encourage are already staples in my diet.

Are you sacrificing anything for Lent?  I would be interested to know and welcome the support as well.

your constant companion,
