Being Who You Are

Good Evening All,

I hope all you mothers out there had a lovely Mother's Day.  I spent the day with my family.  I went to church; sold some clothes to Clothes Mentor; went to Hooters to get some buffalo shrimp; picked up my wine from Coopers Hawk; went to Portillos to get food for the hubby and daughter; visit my mother; went to Culvers for my three scoop lemon ice; went home, ate.; took two Benadryl at 5PM and woke up around 4AM this morning.  I got some well needed rest.

Before I went to church yesterday, I watched Joel Osteen and he talked about being who you are. I have been doing a lot of thinking lately and this hit close to home.  As I am nearing 40, I am more comfortable in my skin.  I like the way that I look now and the person I have grown to be.  However, I am not going to stop growing in wisdom and understanding due to the Creator; but I know that the Creator made me exactly the way that He wanted.  The Creator made everyone exactly the way He wanted.  He wanted us to be happy in the skin that we were born in and grow according to His wisdom and understanding and not our own.  We were made to respect each other;s differences and get along with each other. We should not wait on other people to change, but change our outlook on what our true purpose in life is.

Blessings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel

Good Evening All, This week has been rather hectic.  Dealing with family issues and job interviews at the same time.  All is good and the Creator is in charge.  I had purchased a Dooney and Bourke bag about two months ago to store my keys, ipod and identification when I workout at the gym. The bag wasn't a great choice and I end up exchanging the bag for a Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel in gray. At first I didn't really like the Janine Satchel because of the size.  I love big bags; however since I have lost over 20 pounds, big bags are starting to overwhelm my stature.  I wanted a gray bag because I wear a lot of gray outfits and have been unable to find the perfect gray bag.  There are many different shades of gray that tend to be a little taupe or have a bluish undertone.  This bag is more on the heather gray side with the beige vachetta accent. It is the perfect bag for the warmer months.  The leather reminds me of the Prada S...

I Am Back

Blessings To Everyone, It has been two months since I last blogged.  I have been extremely busy with work.  I was working on a dress for success event with both my employers that includes Ann Taylor.  We created an initiative to teach graduates how to dress for interviews and what to wear for work.  At my primary job, we have to create initiatives along with my current job duties. The event was a success. One of the student models was offered a job at the new Loft flagship in Chicago. I also have been contemplating which way I would like this blog to go.  The blog started out as a self help for me and to inspire others as well. I want to focus on inspiring others. In the past two months I have been out of town to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York.  Going to New York was one of the things I wanted to do before I leave this world.  I would say that it is part of my bucket list.  I enjoyed myself.  You know I love all thing...

Happy 4th of July

H A P P Y  4 T H  O F  J U L Y  ! ! ! ! ! ! ! I would like to take this opportunity to say Happy 4th of July to all.  I am taking it easy today.  My hubby barbecued some jerk chicken breast that have been marinating over night, some beef hot dogs, some lamb burgers, hamburgers, jerk shrimp, and some chicken quarters.  I did a healthy alternative to my famous macaroni and cheese ( wheat rotini noodles).  We are keeping it light.  My sister is coming over and we are just going to watch some movies and relax.  As an ode to the 4th of July, here are some items that I recommend not only for today, but for all time. Blessings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
