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!!

#WedWords - Rassen Frassen :-/ ~xo

#WedWords: Rassen Frassen: something you might yell at someone who is pissing you off, you just can't find the right words. Something mumbled under your breath…

Today, I visited one of my fav places for lunch… I will not mention, however, it happens to be a salad bar express… anyways, while I was there – I ordered the usual and was told that I could not have it – when I asked for more of a certain ‘green’ I was denied… when I inquired further, he retorted: “No, I cannot”

Aghhh… terrible customer service and I all I could think of was: rassen frassen (grumble, grumble) only was I kept my cool…

Grumpy

Who has made you utter this phrase? Or something similar…

#WedWords - You ! ~xo

#WedWords: You : something or someone closely identified with or resembling the person addressed

That is what the dictionary says…

I prefer what Dr. Seuss says: Today You are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You!

Special


So, be yourself – because yourself is pretty darn Special! =)

#ThrowbackTuesdays - Spring Love ;-) ~xo

Good afternoon loves!

It is that time! #ThrowbackTuesdays time! I wanna go back, waaay back to when I was dancing my heart away wearing my blue mascara and my funky Alternative hair styles… we go back to those fantastic Freestyle days… I can still sing the songs today… the lyrics are ingrained in me…

This song was one of my favs amongst the many… Enjoy & sing along if you know the words & check out Stevie’s do! Loving it!

Happy as a clam! Breaking of my #Fast... ;-) ~xo

Happy as a Clam! Are clams really happy? I read that open clams give the appearance of smiling and that is why the saying came about.  Either way, I am happy – my belly is happy, my taste buds are happy!

Today, I broke my fast… Well, it finished – I should more clear.  I was on a 21 day fast off of all sugars, meat, wine, coffee, anything processed.

This morning, I enjoyed my first cup of coffee – it was fantastique!

Below is me relishing in my Nutella filled crepe! So Yummm!  Tonight, I will go w my babes and enjoy some Red Velvet Cheesecake & then swear off the sweets again – summer is knocking on our door… Wine will still be on the list!

#ThrowbackTuesdays - How Great Thou Art <3 ~xo

I miss you, dad!

Today is a special throwback… I was so busy yesterday that I forgot, I guess it was meant to be posted today ----

While I realize that this is not quite a throwback being two years old, however, today my heart needs lifting… it is ebbing and flowing between sadness and joy… I want to focus on how Great my Lord is & how I know that my dad is okay because he is the hands of our loving Father…

In memory of my dad on this sixth month anniversary of his passing – I focus on my Lord to get me through this painful time…

 

 

 

I love you, dad!

I Love you, Lord!

May this song minister to you as it has to my heart… =)

#WedWords - Tenacity ~xo

#WedWords : Tenacity: being tenacious…

The dictionary says to be tenacious is to be: pertinacious, persistent, stubborn, or obstinate… (you can view this positive or negative)

I say do not let defeat have the last word!  That is what being tenacious is all about!

In what areas of your life do you exude tenacity?

For me, I would have to say that it has to do with health… when I am working on me – I am full force – no holds barred… =)

Fasting to quiet my own desires... lovingly completed! ~xo

Guess what?! I made it! My fast is lovingly over tomorrow… I get to enjoy my coffee once again & the occasional sweet! Sooo… you know what that means – Nutella filled crêpe time! Yay!

Cross-of-christ-0101

For those of you who fast… then you would understand that it is not an entirely easy feat…

I am happy that I was able to quiet my desires for a while in order to listen to what my Lord wanted to impress on my heart…

For those of you who fast for Lent – I wish you a blessed fast… Godspeed!

Good afternoon, friends… =)

#WedWords : Ravenous: intensely eager for  gratification or satisfaction.

After a long, hard, kick butt workout – I am Ravenous! I am ready to tackle a great, healthy meal that fuels my post workout!

What about you? What ravenous appetites do you have?

Cheers!
