Happy New Years 2013

Happy New Years 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Praise the Creator we have made it to another year.  I hope everyone had fun celebrating New Years Eve.  I kept it light.  The family and I had a taste for some Outback Bloomin' Onion and wings.  We assumed that the restaurant opened normal business hours which is 4PM.  However, we arrived at 4PM and much to our amazement, the restaurant was full with a 60 minute wait.  The family and I chose to grab our food and take it home.  We had a great time last night.  I enjoyed my 2 lobster tails and vegetables while being engaged with a bottle of wine.  The whole family watched Sons of Anarchy until me the party pooper went to bed at 9:30. 

I am looking forward to the new year.  After reflecting on the previous year, I have made some large strides in being a better person.  Instead of making a New Years resolution as I always do, I am going to continue on my journey of servicing others.  Last year my New Years resolution was to lose weight in which I lost 40lbs.  Someone once said that New Years resolutions normally start and end on January 1.  With anything that you want to accomplish, it should be a work in process... something that is ongoing and not designated on a particular day.  I feel that way with Christmas and all the other holidays. Why designate a certain day out of the year to do something that you should be doing anyway?  That is just something to ponder.  On a lighter note, the new year is a good way to wipe the slate clean and to start off with a new beginning; a new year. 

Until next time, enjoy your day and your life.

Many, many, many blessings.

Happy New Years 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                               . Blessings to All,  It has been a long time coming for this post. The last time I blogged was back in May 2014.  Fast forward to January 1, 2015.  I am very happy to see another year.  I am so glad that 2014 is in the past.  Today is a time to look forward to new opportunities.  On my agenda this year is to get better and wiser.  I am on the path of eliminating baggage out of my life. I am very much interested in the minimalist movement.  A minimalist voluntarily simplifies their life.  It can include buying less things, reducing consumption, working less, and even eliminating toxic things from your life.  I always admired the Japanese culture.  They practice minimalism; however some may argue that is due ...

Is Blogging Dead?

Hello To All. I have been missing in action from this blog since 2015.  I am the type of person that gets bored with things quite quickly.  I have a question for you today.  Is blogging dead?  There are millions of blogs out there covering everything from fashion, food, homes, wine, and etc.  With the fashion piece, Instagram has taken over the need to post a  blog about what a person is wearing and what the audience should buy. However, is it quite necessary to share with the world everything that a person does in their life. I am signing off with this open ended question; should you leave things to the  imagination?  Ponder on that question; will you. Until next time, many, many, many, 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...
