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,

21 February 2012

A time to draw nearer... nearer to my Lord!

Yes, it is Shrove Tuesday! I will not be making pancakes…  (already did that on the weekend for my boy) however, I will be enjoying a Crêpe & you know what it will be made of… do not act surprised… I am not, lol!

It will be made of Nutella, baby! Why would it be anything else?

I am on my way as we speak to the shop – when I return – I will have a photo in hand & a belly full of that gooey goodness! Ahhh… cannot wait!

Tomorrow starts the sacrifice =)

To be accountable, I will share with you the following down below.

For those of you who know me, I am Christian – Lent is celebrated in the Catholic calendar… not so much for us – However, fasting is always a way to sacrifice your belly and desires in order to pursue a closer relationship with God… that is my goal and desire! So… with that being said, I am going to use the time allotted for Lent as an outline for my own fast…

For the first 21 days (this is considered the Daniel Fast):

-          NO Meats

-          NO Poultry

-          NO Dairy (this includes cheese), no eggs

-          NO Sweets

-          NO Wine

-          And this is killer for me… NO Coffee… :/ (this will be worse than not having sweets)

The remainder of the time – I will lay off the sweets and anything else God puts on my heart…

I pray and hope that who ever is celebrating Lent, may you have a blessed fast and may you draw closer to God as this is the true goal of fasting.

Be blessed…

your constant companion,
