Sew here I go

2012-02-08T18:47:00.000-08:00

Ok, so I missed out on the sale on the patterns that I posted not to long ago and I'm not about to spend $18 on one pattern let alone two. I'm thinking that it may be for the best cause even though they did said easy I'm thinking easy for someone with a certain skill level. And I don't think I'm even on that level yet. lol. So what I did was go to walmart to look for a simple pattern. And found

Act Of Faith book revisited

2012-02-05T17:39:00.000-08:00

I love to revisit this book from time to time. It has a daily meditation for each day of the year I just picked it back up today and today's meditation was on point. I think this book is for anyone although it says for people of color. I'll share today's entry with you and hope I'm not breaking any copyright laws.

Something to smile about

2012-02-03T14:36:00.000-08:00

Awoke this morning clothed in my right mind. Opened my eyes and was able to see all the Lord has/is doing for me. Took in a deep breath and thanked the Lord for all his goodness. In other words, if you have your right mind, can see, breath, hear, talk, walk etc. That's something to smile about! And don't forget the cherry on top, whomp, it's Friday! Again, something to smile about. The Lord

Or in my case my sewing machine. lol. I've been itching to pull it out and dust it off and get some projects going. I found out via sewl sista #1 that Vogue is having a sale on there patterns and this is what I have in mind. The both patterns are said to be easy. I still have limited sewing skill so I hope this is correct. Now I just need to get some fabric. Fabric shopping, yayyyy! .

Well the time has come to get a new laptop. If I don't post as often it's because I'm without a computer. Please bear with me. I'll try to post as much as possible while I have access. I know this day was coming and even put a laptop on my Christmas list but at that time it really wasn't at the top of my list. Hopefully it won't be long. Til next time.

That's Why We Pray

2012-01-22T14:07:00.000-08:00

It was casual day at church today so I paired this sweatshirt that I got for Christmas with a skirt and tights. The shirt says "Pray there is great power in it". And I say Amen to that. I pray that you all are well and are having a great weekend. And that God would keep you and watch over you all as we go into a new week. Til' next time.

2012-01-13T19:45:00.000-08:00

Well here I am again. And once again I was feeling some kind of way. And once again I prayed about it and after a while I got a conclusion to how I was feeling and why. The lord has revealed to me that I'm being impatient. Yes impatient. I'm wanting things to happen in my time instead of his time. His timing is perfect and it put me in the mind of the song "An on Time God", He may not come

Well I have been soooo excited this past week for the weekend to finely get here so that I could usher out 2011 with one of my favorite groups in the world! New Edition! This was the last part of my Christmas gift and was definitely the icing on the cake. What a way to end the year. The only disappointment was that I only got one good pic of the group and there back is to the camera :( Well

Having to do with hair

2011-12-21T19:39:00.000-08:00

I really need some new hair. I'm tired of my curly hair and my "Tammy" hair is shedding like crazy. I've decided that I'll rock hair that's not mine for the remainder of the winter as a protective style. I was just visiting a random blog and got the idea to wear bangs to draw attention away from my eye brows. I just may try this. Here is some hair that I like. This is LaLa, I probably

Please stick to the rivers and the lakes your use to

2011-12-19T23:43:00.000-08:00

So lesson learned. I like coconut and tried coconut water and like it as well but that's no reason to believe that a different flavor will test as good. This one didn't. And I'll think twice before trying what I know along with what I don't. If that makes any since. Haha.

For the last time

2011-12-09T22:09:00.001-08:00

OK, so I'm terrified to do my own eye brows so I pay to have them done. And shame on me that the up keep is far and between. I usually have my eye brows threaded and the last time I had this done was last year 2010. Now that I've gotten past the pain I've come to like threading. This would be my second time having it done and I was very happy the first time. With the second, not so much.

Look at my boots

2011-12-09T21:10:00.001-08:00

OOOW, look at my boots (In my youtube's whoissugar voice)! If you follow my blog you know that these where on the list. And know can be crossed off.

Feeling some kind of way

2011-12-04T21:34:00.001-08:00

I really hate feeling this way, please pray for me and I'll be praying too. I feel that it has something to do with control. I don't know what it is that I'm feeling so I can't do anything to control it and make it go away. It may also just be Gods way of reminding me that he is in control and that he has everything under control. Knowing this and writing things out has helped. Thanks for

Well it was good while it lasted. The twist out from my mini twist that is. I've worn them for a week or so and now its that time. I have to say this twist out has run its course :( I never did get any pics, but believe me when I say this twist out was bad. But I can always try to repeat it I guess that's the silver lining. It was good while it lasted. How about you, have you ever had a

Cute scarf four ways

2011-11-30T15:15:00.001-08:00

I think one of the pic is a retake from a different angle so you maybe counting five. But I found this cute scarf at the mart for $1.99, can you believe it? Its been sitting around for the past couple of months and today I finally decided to wear it. I wore it more like the first pic. The other ways are just some ideas of how I can wear it in the future.

Somewhat of a Christmas list

2011-11-25T21:33:00.001-08:00

This is just a list of things I want this Christmas, somewhat, some I may get before some maybe after. Either way I want them in my life. This boot is called "Zippy" from a line named Brash at Payless. I've seen others but I like this one on. And do you think I care they come from Payless, nope! As soon as these bad boys go on sale, right now they runnin' about $60, they mine. I need a

2011-11-25T21:17:00.001-08:00

Well its the day after Thanksgiving, better know as black Friday. I got out some today but not to fight the crowds for the great deal on the laptop or pair of shoes etc. More like out to run errands like it was any other day of the week. Yep, I've worked in retail long enough to know that its just not that worth it. At least not for me cause I know that more than likely the same deal will be

Well today was pretty productive. I hand other plans but was still able to help out my sister out and get done what I had planned. I started this last night and thought it was going to take longer than what it did. But I took the time to put my hair in mini twist. Not mini, mini, but they are small. And it didn't take long to do. Yay me! I couldn't get picks with all my photographers gone

This is my absolute favorite go to bag. I've had it for years and just recently put it back into rotation. For awhile the size got to be overwhelming and just plain annoying when going to look for something. Now I don't feel the need to fill it up with stuff so that should nolonger be a problem. I brought this bag years ago from Walmart, yes Walmart, I scored it for like five dollars on clearance

A walk on the wild side with a bag to match!

Yep, I just wanted an inexpensive, kick on kick off loafer. And I think I found it in these. He didn't bring me the purse, I just so happen to see the bag a couple of weeks ago. When I got the shoes I remembered

If you read my blog then you know about my recent post about my sucky wardrobe. Well in hopes of getting my style back, I've decided that instead of passing up on clothing pieces because I fell like I won't have any place to wear it, to just go for it. And by doing so I will make the most of every opportunity to put an outfit together. With the exception of running errands. I will still wear

Flipping flip flops

2011-11-08T13:16:00.000-08:00

Not too long ago I got rid of alot of clothes that I couldn't fit anymore. Although I'm still losing weight I've come to terms with the fact that I probably won't get back to the size I was. And I'm OK with that. Along with the clothes I also got rid of my most of my many flip flops. Yay! Since I moved to a warmer climate I for whatever reason became flip flop obsessed. I had a pair in just

I really have no reason why but if anything its been due to lack of inspiration. Oh yea, and pure laziness. LOL. Because the current year has gotten away from me so quickly, I proclaiming 2012 as my

Good morning all! Despite the fact that I was up til the wee hours of the morning, I finally got some sleep and I'm bright eyed, busy tailed, and thankful for another day. I will now insert a few lyrics from my favorite Pippi Longstocking song. What shall I do today? What shall I do today? What shall I do today? What shall I doooooo? What will you do today?

My wardrobe sucks

2011-11-05T03:59:00.000-07:00

It wasn't always this way. I could go into my closet and say I don't have anything to wear, not because I didn't ,but because I couldn't make my mind up about what to wear. Now when I say it, it really is because I don't have much to choose from to put an outfit together. And as a person who loves fashion and shopping, my wardrobe doesn't reflect this at all. In fact if it said anything at all

I want a big girl camera, by that I mean one that can be used by a professional. I really want to step up my posting game and a new camera is just the thing to help with that.

I've been going thru it with this operation destroy muffin top mission. I don't seem to be really loosing any real weight.

But all in all I'm happy with it. Thanks to my Mom who gave a whole lot of help in sewing it. These was my first

This has been my theme for the week. I've haven't been in the mood to do much of anything but you know what I went ahead and did it anyway. And in the end I was so glad I did because it was something else that I could mark off of my to do list. I also think this is a sign that I'm over being a procrastinator.

2011-06-21T14:48:00.000-07:00

So I've been getting my exercise in and watching what I eat. And with all of that some progress has been made. I still haven't found a scale I like so I just went ahead and measured my waist with measuring tape. I started out at 38" around the waist now as of today I'm down to 37". I'm happy that I'm getting results. Til next time.

Doing the twist

2011-06-16T15:49:00.000-07:00

So I'm having a good hair day. And I have twist to thank for that. I took the time yesterday to put my hair in medium sized twist. I'll have to say they turned out nicely. A little patience goes a long way. Which is something I don't do to often with my hair. And today it's paying off. I'm going to try and rock my twist for about a week. Before the twist I did a wash and go. It was

What dosen't belong here

2011-06-13T17:47:00.000-07:00

One of these item dosen't belong here. Do you see what that item is? I tried as I might but I couldn't resist. It's now 5 o'clock in the evening and I have yet to get my workout in. SMH. But all hope is not lost I'm on my way to do that now, so I'll see you lovely people later.

Wigs, Curls, Coils

2011-06-09T23:25:00.000-07:00

Well although not official, with temps getting up in the 100's it seems like summer is in full swing. And with that it's a little to hot to be under a wig, at least for me. And I'm not knocking anyone who can pull it off. But for me it's a bit to much and it brings me full circle. I must tame my mane of curls and coils. I've never been good with my hair and have for the most part have always

Operation Destroy Muffin Top update

2011-06-08T19:58:00.000-07:00

Ok, ok, so I failed to take measurements. And I have to say that I'm a little scared. I just might go with weight watching. I think I can deal with that better in my head. But all in all everything is going good. I've been watching my calories and getting my exercises in. I'm on my way to health and being fit. Til' next time.

Operation Destroy Muffin Top another day

2011-06-06T01:58:00.000-07:00

So today was another day on my mission to destroy my muffin top! I got my exercises in and even got the kids to workout with me. Went to the store and walked right passed the cookie aisle. One thing I need to do that I haven't yet is to take measurements. I will do this before my workout tomorrow. And I probably won't make this a daily update I'll shoot for maybe weekly. But I'm really

Destroy the Muffin Top Day 1

2011-06-05T12:42:00.000-07:00

It was sabotage I tell you, sabotage! Well almost. I woke up, did my exercise dvd, and chilled out. Come dinner time significant other calls and wants to go to the Chinese buffet. Which is funny because I had just started dinner after fighting the urge to order a pizza. But how could I resist? Proud to say I didn't go over board and ate alot of veggies. Go, me!

Yes, shame on me. It's the night before Operation Destroy Muffin Top and I find myself up and can't sleep. Shame on me why you ask? For the entire bag of Tear n' Share M&M's I ate. Without sharing with a sole. Yep, now I can't sleep cause of the chocolate so late in the evening. And what is Operation Destroy Muffin Top, you ask? That's my name for my goal to get rid of my unattractive muffin

2011-05-21T23:35:00.000-07:00

So glad E.L.F lipsticks are only a dollar, I brought three that I thought would look nice on me and they where all a bust! On my makeup journy I now know lipgloss works best for me. Til next time.

Jamaican Black Castor Oil

2011-05-17T17:32:00.000-07:00

I'm finding myself getting back in the habit of using this. It really is helping with the growth and laying down of my edges. This is where I experience the most breakage. This really helps.

I had put this product down for the count. I then took a closer look and saw that you can leave this in your hair to help tame frizz. With that said that's what I've been doing. So far so good. I can already tell a difference while doing my twist. So glad I found a use for this product.

All the pretty makeup

2011-05-09T19:46:00.000-07:00

So my E.L.F delivery finally came. I felt like a kid in a candy store with all the colors to choose from. This is a look at my first attempt. And beside my skin being oily and my brows being in need of a taming, I don't think I did bad. Although still in need of alot of practice. I've been on YouTube looking for help and I believe I've found it, so I believe I'll be OK. I haven't really

I wanted to take the time to wish all my Mommy readers a Happy Mother's Day! Much of my celebrating took place on Saturday. I was treated to a movie and dinner afterwards. I really enjoyed myself and the time spent with family. Today I will spend much of my time just relaxing. How will you spend yours?

Something diffrent something new

2011-05-06T17:03:00.000-07:00

I really having fun typing this right now, lol. I stopped by Walgreen's today and I went in to look for makeup to play in, but since I got my ELF order coming next week I decided to wait. I couldn't leave out empty handed so I decided to try something different and picked up a set of false nails. I've never tried false nails before I usually like to keep my nails super short. But they say

2011-05-05T20:46:00.000-07:00

I need that somebody that I can talk to and in return get served up the truth. I need that somebody that I can just laugh with. I need that somebody that I can go shopping with. I need that somebody that I can just hang out with. I don't need a anybody somebody. What I need is a real good friend.

This stuff right here is the bomb dot com! I was out on Saturday and decided to stop into Odd Lots cause I haven't been in a long while. I was looking around and came across this E.L.F lip conditioner. I've been having a problem with chapped lips, I mean my lip where horrible. Since using this I haven't had any problems. I go to lick my lips and they are still moist. This is one of my

Flat ironed hair summer of 09 This is my hair back in the summer of 09 I believe. And I have to say, I miss it dearly. I don't even want to make mention of what my hair looks like today, yea its just that bad. I'm seriously thinking of going back to relaxers. I still have the length and with it being natural its just to much for me to tame. I'm not looking to go bone straight just

Put them with the rest of them

2011-04-25T18:41:00.000-07:00

So I finally, finally. I got my hands on the Shea Moisture line now that it's being carried at Walgreen's. I tried it last weekend and I was really excited. But now not so much. I have more defined curls but not much manageability. I have a fro with well defined curls, not a good look for me. And the fact that my hair is prone to shrinkage doesn't help at all. And my hair doesn't feel any
