Life from my view

As promised- I wanted to share a few pictures with you all of the Valentine's Bash- hosted by yours truly this weekend for the children.. It was a success and we raised the funds needed to aid them in their next sponsored event. Here you go!!

Being single with Valentine's Day on the horizon sucks right? Well not for me, I am refocusing my energies into positive vibes for others. So No, I will not receive a new outfit, shoes, chocolates or even flowers this year- maybe if my daddy decides I still need validation from him- He always buys me valentines gifts *Daddy's Girl* but I don't think he counts anymore at 26 :-) So no guy and no gifts for me but I will be throwing a Valentine's Bash for the kids. Neka Luv the Kids. I decided that I would focus all my creative juices and some funds into making their Valentine's Day fun. I wish some grown up would have thrown us a Valentine's Bash- like how fun is that- not worried about a play gf/bf  just going to have fun with friends on the day my parents were probably creating my siblings lol- One was born beginning of  November--- Calculating? A cookie bar, mocktails, music, DIY photo booth and food! I think I will have more fun than the kids lol. Pictu...

Awesome trip! I spent my weekend in LA and oh what a wonderful time I had. Port only cost like 10.00 there! I was in paradise literally- Long Beach not LA. But is it not wonderful to have friends in diff states- no hotel cost and free tour guide! OF course I went to Hollywood- I had to! Rolls Royce's and Bentley's everywhere- no wonder people dream big here- you see it on the daily basis and you want it!  I visited the LA County museum of art- some great collections- could not do it all in one day. Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles- of course I went! Now being from Dallas and all I wish the chicken tasted like Rudy's but hey everybody cannot put crack on the chicken lol. The waffle was delish though! and the gravy on the smothered chicken MANNNNNN- reminded me of Liz Thompson's pan gravy- Can I get a biscuit with that? But  expensive! They were taxing 7 bucks for french fries- where they do that at? LA apparently. So Cali is off of my vision board list and it is st...

So I am going to need to Netflix to screen these movies when they decide to show them to the world. Today, I watched 2 movies and when they ended I said WTH did I just watch? The Overnight- so I thought this was going to be a romantic comedy of sorts. Like Why did I get married- my spouse cheated- we reconciled type movie----- ohhhhh was I in for a surprise. Young couple moves to Cali, wife works and husband is a stay at home dad... sort of backwards to me, but they are looking to make new friends in this new home of theirs. Voila- a friend appears for both them and their son over a bag of gummi worms- Going great so far.  They get invited to a family dinner of pizza and wine and friends. The children automatically hit it off- best fran!! The hosting couple suggest that they put the boys to sleep their and continue their conversation- they are connecting- why not.? So Mr Jack of all trades puts the children to sleep like with piano playing, humidifiers and incense- magical...

Did I hurt your feelings when I said it like that? Did I waste my time trying to keep it running like that? Now you got a lot to say Did I really mean it when I said that? Did I? Dressed up walking in a crowd but its you on my mind Thinking it could be different, but maybe we missed it. Should've been us headed to LA... we were crazy but amazing Could've been the real thing....now we will never know for sure Should've been us.... Don't settle for less or infidelity Now I done switched up on ya.... what you want from me Can't let you get one up on me Sorry you not the one ..... Don't-                                          Be Sorry Take a look at myself in the mirror thinking how did I let myself get here You drug my heart through the ground and left it all battered and bruised Done fighting this battle with you, can't keep going in circles Circles- Round ...

So life is great.... good job, great apartment, good car, all my family, able to travel leisurely, not broke, finding myself...... but something is missing. Transparency:  I am sitting in my living room- not wanting to my watch my usual on either Netflix or Hulu. Not quite depressed but teetering this fine line of questioning all that I am. Why can I not have everything I want...why must I wait for Mr. Right? So I sound like a spoiled 3 year old... oh well, that is just where I am in life right now. Maybe it hormones or maybe its the process.  I have a bestfriend who had a baby and then got married... she seems happy... The other bestfriend has her kids to go home to and what do I have? My great job, quiet apartment and wine......but positive breeds positive right? So I shop.... I shop to fill the missing pieces of my life... clothing and shoes never worn to make me feel better. Catch me at my shoe store tomorrow off Preston... Just FYI Cannot smoke weed... yeah promis...

This last quarter of 2015 has truly been life changing for me. I am becoming the me that I imagined and worked towards for so long.  Great things are happening! 1. Update on Jenny Craig- I have lost 10lbs so far and I love my morning workouts they get me up and moving (Not a morning person) so this is a big deal. And the food is really tasty 2. Love my new apartment- hosting my first baby rats Graduation Shin-Dig on Saturday. I did not think the boy was gone graduate lol but he did it. 1 down 2 brothers to go! UT- Arlington Alum GO MAVS! 3. Resigned from DPsiE- after much deliberation within self, realized it was not for me, it was also a learning process that I had to grow through and at this time in my life it was bringing no value to life and aspirations. 4. Hit my 1 year mark with my current company and that is a big deal with me because I get tired of my jobs easily but I enjoy my work and my team. It is all in perspective- Positive breeds positive. 5. Got new pill...
