Motivational Monday....

Good morning! Happy Monday morning.... 

Whew! My body is sore! My legs and back are on fire today! whoot whoot!

Note to self : never leave The Avengers movie on tv while trying to fall asleep because Kris will stay up and watch the whole movie and keep scaring you and Audrey while yall are snuggled up sleeping and then will go into work late because he didn't sleep  much..... MEN!


Progress is Progress no matter how small! Great quote to get this day started! Today is my First day of Weight Watchers full force! I will lose the weight and work on toning up for Summer. I am in a wedding May 16th, so I hope to be looking and feeling how I want to be feeling at this moment and time! I can do it! I will do it! 

I was looking into getting the next dvd set of Zumba. it comes with a step this time and has extra dvds with it that focus on certain body part workouts! I would love to get it! I hope I stay this focused and motivated! Please help me!   


Have a wonderful day!

Monday comes so soon!

Hey Hey Hey!....I for sure have had the Monday blues... The day after the Super Bowl should be a Holiday! 

Poor Audrey is so worn out I had to pick her up to get her out of her crate and she's just laying around.....No puppy power in her yet! 

Last night was great! Although I thought the game started at 8 so my guests didn't show up until 7:30 and that was pretty much when the half time show started. Kris heard it started at 7 and I swore when we had gone to dinner the other night they say coverage begins at 6:30 and the game starts at 8. I even heard people complain about how late the game was going to be since it was being played in Arizona.  I felt so bad but really no one was that interested in the game just the food, commercials , and watching how Audrey and Berkeley got along.

Berkeley Is who Kris decided he wanted in our house so when he went searching for a puppy that was his model. Audrey was a bit sassy acting ( her Scrappy Doo came out) but Berkeley put her in her place and could jump up on the couch so she would stare down at Audrey. 

I enjoyed the half time show wasn't as good as Bruno Mars by no means but I did enjoy the dancing and costumes. I heard Lenny Kravitz was on it but I think I blinked. Missy Elliot sang all my old Hip hop dance songs so of course I liked it since it made me go down memory lane for a second.

I'm very proud of myself I did 45 mins of Zumba tonight! Whoot Whoot! 

Now it's time for me to crash! Good night everyone!

ummmm about that....

In 2014 I made goals for life and my blog and didn't meet most of them to the fullest I would have liked to, but a lot in life did happen so I can't be too mad at myself.

So let me explain..... 

1. I got really bad migraines and had to drink soda but it's not my first choice anymore and I only drink it when I really need it.

2. I have not cut my hair it has been growing! 

3. yeah... I was doing good and well life happened

4. no one new joined

5. I feel as if I did a little more

6. I did a Diabetes walk for one of my students but not a color 5k

7. I teach a creative movement class at work where i do zumba moves at.

8. I sing in my car everyday..... does that count?

9. I feel as If I have been there a little more for my friends and my family

10. I saw Deirks Bentley and Thomas Rhett in concert!

11. I did cook new recipes!

12. oh yes every month I have gotten a massage!

13. I did take my mom to the zoo for mother's day

14. I didn't do a day trip to the outlets but I did shop on my cruise at Jamaica ,Grand Turk, and Nassau... does that count?

So maybe life did go as I planned but 2014 was so amazing! I am very thankful for everything in my life and for the person I am today!

Trust.... it takes years to build and seconds to break....

I feel like I am a good person but lately I have been questioning it. Meaning why be a good person? What does it really get you? I have been wondering with the actions of others how they are able to sleep at night which I then find myself not able to sleep because I am laying there thinking about it. I believe you treat people how you want them to treat you and I am teaching my students that as well but is that Old fashioned? 

I feel like some people in the world are playing the game of Life like they are in the "Hunger Games" or something out to survive for themselves so it's alright for them to take from others whatever it is that they need at the moment to survive. Is that how life is suppose to be now? If so my class would be chaotic with each one of them taking blocks from one another....chairs out from underneath others....goodness I don't even want to try and think of what else that would cause. I wouldn't want any of that for any of the kids. 

So what changes? When we become adults, is that when it's alright to take from others? I feel like excuses are made constantly and you, the good person, just have to deal with it because that just what you are suppose to do. You know if the actions were turned around and you were to do the same thing they wouldn't like it.... so why is it alright?  

I understand the whole put yourself in their shoes....everyone has bad days here and there...but...one shouldn't constantly walk all over others right?  

I feel like there has been no one to really trust, like one minute they are one your side and the next, well you just need to get over it because they are on their side of things. 

Just my thoughts of the day. Feel free to comment below your thoughts!

Monday morning Navy Blues...

Good morning! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! I have had a busy week so that's why I haven't made a post. I'm very sorry...please forgive me!

I realized I never told you about my lace dress outfit I wore to the Bridal shower. I showed you what I am planning on wearing to the wedding but never showed you what I did wear to the shower! How silly!

Navy lace dress and boots!!

I got my navy lace dress from kohls my statement necklace from Walmart and my boots I have had for years and I got them from Body Central back when Dukes Of Hazzard movie came out.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
