All the things that I wanted to become starting at age five to now: cow girl, police woman, fire woman, veterinarian, flight attendant, private investigator, actress, basketball player, writer, judge, talk show host, model, race car driver, artist, designer, teacher, singer, song writer, exotic dancer (don't judge me..lol), gymnastic, medical secretary, mother, FBI agent, paralegal, violinist, comedian, tennis player(I looove tennis!!), wife, wedding planner, and beautician.

No matter how much I dreamed I knew that whatever I wanted to do I could do it. I am a strong determined individual who won't stop until I get what I want! ;)

Summer vacation

This summer I am planning a trip to the beach. I'm not sure which beach to go to. I will probably end up going to Cocoa or Daytona. I haven't been to Daytona since I was five years old. I always go to Cocoa so I will switch it up and go somewhere different. I love to swim and the beach is a relaxing fun place to be. If I'm not at the beach in the summer I'm usually at the pool. I love the water!!

Last summer I was at the pool almost every day. When I go I spend hours there relaxing. I also get in the hot tub which is now a spa because the heater isn't working. The spa helps my back a lot. I wish it was working properly.

So this summer will be fun and I look forward to it. I haven't been on a vacation in a long time this will be a much needed one. I will probably end up going to both beaches if I feel up to it, who knows. I love to travel so this will be fun.

Gym Flow

I recently signed up with a fitness trainer at a private gym. We meet every Saturday due to each other's busy schedules but I want to go more days than just one. I plan to go at least 2-3 days out the week. I don't want to over do it but I have so much energy that I think I'll be ok.

I remember about 5-6 years ago I was in the gym 3-4 days out the week. Me and an ex-boyfriend would be in there in beast mode!! I could lift way more than I could now. I love to work out but it seems like everything gets in the way when I plan to go. I know working out should be a life style not a chore, I just slacked up over the years. Now I have more time to dedicate time to the gym. I'm ready and nothing can stop me.

Sleep fighter?

So, last night I was watching classic movies. I watched my favorite movie, Rush Hour 2. I watched most of it and dosed off to sleep. I dreamed I was fighting like Lee and Carter!! I woke myself up by kicking my old tv. I was lying at the foot of the bed watching tv and my old tv was at the head of the bed. I'm tall so it was near my feet. I kicked it so hard that it startled me. No more action movies before bed I guess..lol

Moving....Uggh!!!!

About five years ago I remember moving. I had no help basically. I had one person helping me and it was horrible. I had to help lift everything!!! I was so miserable that day it didn't make any sense. I remember driving around with my mom looking for relatives to help us move. I remember two specifically, who wouldn't help. We drove by a cousin's house to ask if her husband could help. He straight out said "NO". But when we decided to give away a bedroom set he was ready to come get it. My gave him the set anyway.

On moving day, I remember lifting furniture like craaazy!! I wanted to cry, I was in that much pain. I had to lift two sofas, a washer and dryer, two recliners, two queen size bedroom sets, a dining room table, a china cabinet, an entertainment center, two dressers, TVs, and coffee tables. Needless to say, I wasn't in a good mood.

What made that weekend worse was when people started showing up asking if I needed help after everything was moved. I had to go up two flights of stairs lifting all that heavy furniture....Never again though. I just can't do it. I will be moving in June and I will not be lifting furniture, I am only moving my clothes, dishes, and valuables.

Can't Take That Away-Mariah Carey

*(This is one of my inspirational songs I listen to)*




I Love Music!!!

Today I have been listening to music all day! I love music soo much! Music puts me in a relaxed mood. No matter what I may be dealing with, once I turn my favorite songs on I'm good! I have been listening to TGT: Three Kings album, Avant, T.I., Fantasia, French Montana, Nicki Minaj, and 112 just to name a few.

I also enjoy old school music as well, like Prince, Luther, Al Green, Marvin Gaye, The Staple Singers, Tony! Toni! Tone!, Chaka Khan, Patti Labelle, New Edition, Boyz II Men, Etta James, Tina Turner, Zapp and Roger, Parliment Funkadelics, Sam Cooke, Lisa Fischer, Evelyn Champagne King, Kool and The Gang, Mary Jane Girls, Shannon, Rose Royce, Stevie Wonder, and Teena Marie. I am also a huge Earth, Wind, and Fire fan!!

It seems like the content of music is so much different than it was when I was a kid. Old school music was about love. Candle light dinner, wine, dim the lights, close the door kind of love. But today's music is so much explicted!! So many details and they wonder why the percentage of teenage pregnancy has risen..smh.

My funny Valentine's......day

I really don't celebrate Valentine's day, but I am willing to accept the candy and cute little teddy bears..lol.

 This Valentine's day I will treat my mom and sister to dinner somewhere nice. My dad is welcome to join us as well (if he has our gifts this year). I have always brought my mom something on Valentine's day. From singing bears to boxes of gourmet chocolate. A few days ago I went in her room to see all of her gifts from over the years that I have brought. Some of the gifts that require batteries still work. I was filled with joy when I saw that she kept all of the gifts.

My sister on the other hand, will not spend a dime on you..lol This chick is all for herself. I will still treat her with gifts though. I have given her cards and chocolates as well through her eighteen years.



Whatever I plan to do this year I hope to make someone smile. Valentine's day to me is not all about lovers but about the people you love. I plan to spend it with them (until I get my own Valentines) lol. I'm sure they won't mind. Happy Valentine's day to you and yours. <3

Flight #1

I have yet to take an airplane ride. I always wondered what it would be like up thousands of feet in the air. I would love to take a short flight just to experience it. I don't want to go alone though, just in case I freak out lol. Maybe a close friend or my mother would come along with me. My mom has never been on an airplane either.

My grandmother always take flights. She explained to me that's it's like sitting in her living room. Really??? It's dark and crowded?? I think NOT. lol. Maybe she meant the comfort of the flight was like her sofa...I hope.

I'm going to plan a trip somewhere just to fly. I might go visit my cousins in New York. I have never been out of the state either. I heard New York was a fast city....very fast compared to my current state. Oh well, I only live once! :)
