Storms a brewin'

This is exactly what thing's started out looking like last year before all those tornados... Nervous?? Why yes I am and I'm not afraid to say it! And to make things worse this curly hair does not get along with this awful rainy, gloomy weather. 

Random: I have never taken very many pictures of my hair curly! SMH It is essential I do better. And why does curly hair shrink so much in comparison to when it's straight or wet??  Maybe it's a mixed chick/ black girl thing.

Back to the topic at hand: Guys, pray for me.  I can't deal with another round of tornados like last year.  Storm preparation is essential especially when things are very unpredictable here in the south.  My car is gassed up, I have groceries, flashlights, candles, batteries and cash.  I refuse to be stuck like last year. 

XOXO,

What's really going on?

There are so many people stealing, killing and trying to destroy what others have worked hard for.  What happened to the days when people worked for what they wanted?? Until recently, my neighborhood very rarely had to deal with robberies.  I just want to be able to live in peace without having to double and triple check my house and it's surroundings when I leave.  I don't mind helping anyone that is trying to better themself.  But once you steal from me, or even worse, LIE, it's hard for me to trust you much less want to help you with any of your endeavors. 

If we don't take back control of our neighborhoods what will future generations have? This world wasn't in shambles when it was given to me and I refuse to let it end up that way now.  It is time we make thieves, murderers and pedophiles responsible for their actions.  A lot of times these dregs of society just need to know someone cares about them and their actions. 

If we all make a difference in just one person's life, young or old, do you realize how much of a difference that will make? It is time to make a change, beginning with ourselves and the way we interact with others.  What are YOU willing to do to help your community?

Just a little food for thought 

XOXO,

I finally did it!

Hello World!

I finally did it!!! I made my very first blog and I am proud of myself!!! Lately I have been thinking quite a bit about beginning a vlog but I think a blog will be better for now.  This is something I can fit into my schedule since I am always on the go.  Not only am I a full time graduate student, I also work part time and I am on a quest to get healthy again.  I still find it hard to believe that I managed to gain about 55 pounds in almost 6 years!!  I refuse to let my insecurities hold me back from achieving my full potential in life, and that includes reverting from my current 216 pounds back to 160 pounds as I was in 2006. Regardless, I’m still cute and my boyfriend still loves me and most importantly I love me ;-). 

While I am a student and someone’s employee I can’t continue to let that consume my life.  So to that I say: “Hello social life! I’ve missed you!  Hello fit self! I promise not to leave you ever again”. Everything is about perspective.  In order for my life to be positive I must think positive because things could always be worse. 

This is only day one but I think this is something I will keep up with and evolve from . We shall see what the future brings for me. 

KISSES xoxo,

LadyJay
