Happy Sunday beautiful people! We’re here after Thanksgiving and we’ve survived. I am grateful for all the blessings that found me this week. Gratitude for this week This week I was proud of myself because… I managed to exercise every day this week! Exercise is important because my medication makes me gain weight like crazy. Even with a diet change, I’ve been steadily gaining little by little each week. I have managed to slow down the gain with exercise each day, but some days are more difficult to go running/walk than others. I honestly don’t mind the weight I’ve gained too much, ...

On Falling back in love again
Sunday has rolled around again, my loves. This week was a little slower for me, but that’s a good thing. That means my time was well-managed! I got so much done that I was able to go to bed at decent times! Woo-hoo! Gratitude for this week Something funny that happened this week…on my regular evening walk/run (it’s mostly a walk, I’m not gonna lie), I cracked up. Each of the neighborhoods in my area have big brick walls and some bougie ass name on it to announce that you’ve arrived at “Fakename Kensington Place” or something to that effect. I’m just walking along, minding my own ...
A Beautiful Truth: Becoming Grateful for my Pain
It’s another beautiful Sunday! We survived the election, and life is good! It’s almost time for the holidays, which may or may not be your jam. If they’re not, check out my previous post for some tips on getting through the holiday blues. Gratitude for this week This week I was proud of myself because… I asked for help. My blog, plus several other activities and projects were getting to be more than I could chew. My coach/mentor asked what I needed help with the most. Instead of saying, “It’s okay, I got it,” like I usually would, I responded, “Time!” She helped me learn some new ...
Starting The Month With Gratitude
Wow, it’s November! Look at this, 2020 is almost over thank goodness! I think all of us are going to breathe a collective sigh of relief on December 31st. This week has been a weird one for me. I had been feeling really tired lately, and then noticed that my jellyfish infection had come back. That thing is out of control, lol. I’ve gone to the doctor, but it seems as though it’s spreading again, so that’s why I haven’t really been updating anything but Twitter. My bad! I’m also apologizing for this post coming so much later in the day. It’s the jellyfish’s fault, not mine! My immune system may ...
The Best Part of Affirmations
Hello and happy Sunday! We are so close to Halloween, I can taste the candy and feel the spookiness, even here in sunshiny Florida! It’s been a great week, so why don’t I get started on what I’m grateful for? Gratitude for this week Something funny that happened this week was seeing a snake during my daily power walk. I’ve given running a break because I hurt my foot somehow, but I ran like the wind when I saw another tiny black creepy crawly on the sidewalk. Judging by the ache in my quads and the yelps I made, I set a new record for the 50-meter dash. Usain Bolt has competition now. ...
