Baby, I'm a Firework!!

I was watching BBW(all of you Sunday night TVaholics know that that is) last night and I was amazed that Evil(Evelyn) of Mean and Evil has a nearly grown daughter. I knew she has this daughter but to actually see her was another thing. This made me feel some kinda way because the chick is not much older than me. I have been in a MAAAAAAJOR funk, blues or whatever you want call it for a long time now. I guess I let the situation affect me in more ways than I really realized.


I do not have many friends and the friends I do have are married with kids and are too married to have Girls Night Out every once in a while. I had been thinking that I needed some nice single women friends with good heads on their shoulders. Within the past month or two I have expanded my Twit-circle and I did not expect to come in contact with such wonderful people. I am truly inspired by these women who are moms, wives, full time working in the work place and at home, side hustle starting, future NewYorkTimesBestSellers, etc, etc, etc. Man these are some awesome ladies that are inspiring me and they don’t even know it. It may not happen overnight but I am going to step my game up physically, mentally and spiritually. I am going to work on my makeup, hair and clothes. I have been real drab of late, real old lady like. I am also going to find so events to go to even if I have to go alone. I just want to be out and live life not have it pass me by because I am too this or too that. This will be fun. I never really listened to the words to this song until last week.  It will be my spring anthem.

 
My Favorite Lyrics:
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

I sooooo know what you mean! I was in the same sort of place a few months back. I just didn't take the time out to pamper me like I needed. I would sit in the house and not do anything b/c I didn't want to be bothered. I promised myself that I would live each day like my last once I turned 30. So far we're 31 days in and I've had a BLAST!

Yes I am soooo glad to have "met" you and the other tweets! You all are amazing!

"I just want to be out and live life not have it pass me by..."

And that's what's key. I didn't take my first vacation as an adult until I turned 39... and I regret that. Yes, I was having a great time up until then, but to travel and enjoy other countries, that is new for me, and will always be my thing!

My mantra: enjoy life.

Because we only live once. Really.

Okay so I need one of these on a T-shirt please. Lol

But I know how you feel about the friends thing, but I have it set in my mind that this year will be the year that I do me.

My Mantra for the year: 28 let me get me skraight. lol

And this right here yes this right here is what I need to do to get it done:

"Step my game up physically, mentally and spiritually. I am going to work on my makeup, hair and clothes."

I also want to take a trip to Vegas and ATL this summer. To do what I dont know but I know its like outside of Richmond Va and I need to find it soon.
