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,

EFFECTIVENESS: Producing the intended or expected result

'Efficiency is doing things right. Effectiveness is doing the right things'

What are you hoping to be Effective in? How about for 2012?

I am looking to be more Effective by completing my goals that I set forth for the New Year.

More effective in my communication

More effective in goal setting / completion

More effective in fluidity & flexibility by practicing yoga (I bought a six month pass) =)

 

How can you be more Effective?

#ThrowbackTuesdays - At Last!

I know... I know... it is not Tuesday... I was sooo busy yesterday with all the runnings around of Christmas & making the rounds to loved ones that I simply missed it! Anyway, it is never too late to sit back and enjoy the smooth, strong voice of Etta James!

I loooove this song!  Enjoy dear friends!

Merry Christmas to you!

May you be blessed as your share this special time with your loved ones!

This is my first video made with Movie Maker!
I hope you'll like it.
At last is a very special song, so sweet and lovely, as Etta James' voice.
Enjoy it and let me know if you like it :)

Lyrics:
At last
my love has come along
my lonely days over
and life is like a song

Ooh, yeah, yeah
At last
the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
the night I looked at you

I found a dream
that I could speak to
A dream that I
can call my own
I found a thrill
to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Ohh, yeah, yeah

You smile
you smile
Ooh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in Heaven
for you are mine at last

Tear provoking fotos...

#WedWords - Impulsive

Be Impulsive today! Go out and take on a new challenge! Be Free!

Today, I am going to be impulsive and do something out of the norm - I will let you know tomorrow... ;-)

May I suggest you be Impulsive by:

 - Smiling at a stranger & saying Hi!

 - Taking someone out to lunch that you may not know

 - Giving someone a ride in the cold

 - Paying for someone's coffee


Have a super day, friends!

May you be blessed wherever your feet touch down!

#ThrowbackTuesdays - Wild Is The Wind

oh, such memories this song brings... in my Morrissey, Depeche Mode, sometimes melancholy way... can you believe it? Me? Melancholy?

I just love her voice - it is painfully beautiful... I hope you enjoy!
