Week 42: own your strong

20140511-211140.jpg
What a Saturday!
Playing in the mud has had me thinking. A Saturday to remember.
I am so proud of myself, my team mates and everyone else who owns their strong.
My conquer list will be changing.

Week 14: Closure

This week was very emotional.  I had many hurdles this week. Some good and well one (depend how you look at it). I realized alot about myself this week and all in all I’m very proud of me this week. My horizon is bright and I’m focused on ME, MYSELF AND I. Ready to enjoy Fall and the upcoming holidays with my family and my new name.

Week 12: Pieces of Memories

Lyric of The Week: “Oh no, there ain’t no rest for the wicked, until we close our eyes for good.” Rest for the Wicked, Cage the Elephant

For once, I’m going to let this odd collection of pictures speak for themselves, mostly. The booty shot? It’s my before. 35 is not too old to get a booty. Fuck all that to the contrary. And my egg cake was bangin. (See top right.)

I will say this: Its very dangerous to watch the horizon and the horizon, alone. You can be so busy following the sky that you walk right off of a cliff. We all, myself included, have been cautioned.

Week 9: Like Heads and Tails

Lyric of the Week: “Can you live with it? Loving me for life? To have and hold forever. Baby, ride or die, til death do us part. Lets make it last forever.” -4Ever, Lil’ Mo

First half.
Gifts, sunshine, belly dancing with wifey, birds of prey, chocolate bacon… (and many things I loved that are not pictured here…) first half was one of the best weeks in a long time. ♥

Second half.
Let my pics speak for themselves. I can call it a bad end, sure. But can’t call it unexpected.

Week 9: ♡ Fall Fitness & Fun ♡

image

This week I took fitness,  family,  friends and fun to another level.  All my favorite things that begin with “F” were great this week.  Learning new things about me,  my body and my friendships.  In fact knowing who you can count on in the clutch of the Moment is amazing. 

Fall is upon us and so is football.  Nephew played a great game and I’m looking forward to many more games.  My hoodie and my sneakers are ready for more fitness fun and especially for walking miles and miles. This week I did 2 miles on a Friday night.  It was relaxing and fun.  I push you and you push me was the theme of the evening. 

The highlight of my week was the fact that I did something I’ve been wanting to do ALONE.  The bucket list has been set and I’m proud to say I’ve checked something off of it.

Here’s to a great week and more great “F”‘s.

Week 8: ♥ Summer 2 Fall ♥

This week I really need to let the pictures speak for themselves.  It was a relaxing, productive and fun filled week.  The balance between personal life and family life was very challenging this week. But when things seem a little off I corrected them right away.  I soaked up the remainder of the summer and dived head first into Fall.

Week 7: ♡ Endless

Sunday: Was rise and shine at Moody Park. While I was walking to my tunes; my son and nephew were working on their swing. Family fitness is great on a nice Sunday morning.

Monday: Was relaxing morning then lunch with my BF. Salad works is so good and even better when I can track it online. Technology at its best.

Tuesday: Was back to work and “rolling over” a potential mate. As a single mom that spends her life revolving everything around her children I always question ” how can I ever find someone? “. Well Tuesday my job may have solved that problem.  The jury is still out on the matter,  and there is lot to consider but if it is meant to be it will be.

Wednesday: My youngest nephew started kindergarten.  Even tho I couldn’t be there my brother was sure to send pictures.  It was an eye opener to so much in my personal life. Questions and answers session has begun.

Friday: Was a ME evening. Toes, shopping then my favorite salad from my favorite chef while watching Law and Order SVU. Yeah it was a perfect Friday.

Saturday: The early bird caught the worm but not a snake.  Then flying over to get my $13.81 bargain outfit for a date I didn’t officially have scheduled but at that cost it had to be purchased. Spent the afternoon with my sis.  Some long over due QT. We both need to put the past behind us and as always we do that together. 

The perfect week.  The perfect company.  The perfect food.  All in all my HORIZON is getting closer then I could ever image.

Week 6: ♥~ Miles of Fun

image

This week I continue to push myself to be a better version of myself. I started my Sunday with a mile walk. Pushing myself and staying focused is my goal every day. Taking it one day at a time is the best thing I can do. I’m eating correct and counting every thing I eat. I’ve even proved to myself that I can still enjoy a night out and eat healthy. Taking time for myself and enjoying life has become easier each week. My family and friends have been an amazing support system to me as I enter into a new phase of my life.

The week rounded out with a trip to the beach.  I truly had a great day. The weather was great, my family had a blast and I ended the evening with a drink,  a salad and the song of the weekend “get lucky” which is what I felt like on Friday. 

Saturday I was reminded what “no pain no gain” felt like.  I blocked it,  I cried about it then realized the pain was worth what I was gaining. 

Focused on this week and looking forward to the miles ahead of me.

Week Five: the production goes on

I haven’t posted in my other blog (sigh), what a defeat! So do I even try to make these posts up this week? It will be a task but I’m down for it. I wanted to start off with my goals for this week since I had such a product Week 5 with a lot of pictures to share.
Goals for week 6
1) Post in other blog 3 times this week.
2) Make an appointment with “Mr. Sam”.
3) Just take a ride.
4) Go to the gym.

Week 5 was Fantastic! This week I clearly had My Eyes on the Horizon, everything wasn’t perfect but I saw the possibilities. And an extra 2 days off from work didn’t hurt. I have so many things to work on to create a better me, stronger me, healthier me, etc. and I’m ready for the challenge. After only 5 weeks of starting this blog I can feel and see the difference. It goes beyond me; I can also see the growth in others.

And this garage was made for working (imagine me singing that line). Ok don’t. I love, love, love, the garage. It is by far the best thing ever right now. Once I have time to spend on some personal projects it will be even better.

I can not forget the hair cut. I’m still on the fence with this one.

What I loved most about this week was the time I got to spend with my family and friends as well as my alone time. I’m looking forward to another fun productive week.
lets go…..
