Most Wonderful Time...!

Like most of America,  I love bright new things.  I, however, DO NOT LIKE SHOPPING!!! I at least, know in general, what I need from the store so I go in, get what I need and get out, as quickly as possible.

I am not the person that wanders into stores because they have a great display window or the music has somehow drawn me in. Nope,  I do not need to go up every aisle or to every rack to peruse.  It's just not my thing.  I'm surrounded by people that l love to do that thoug and I try not to go shopping with those people very often.  That being said,  I LOVE A BARGAIN!!!!!!!

I recently purchased a printer in hopes of becoming an extreme couponer soon.  Because of my love of bargains I only purchase clothing for myself maybe 3 or 4 times a year.  Holiday season is one of those times.   I have a site I love to buy with.  The only thing is their normal prices are on the higher side so,  I must wait for their big sales.

Earlier this year,  I purchased roughly $1000 worth of clothing from this site for around $100. Today, probably my last purchase of the year,  I purchased a winter coat, retail $169, a lovely hi lo blouse,  retail $69 and another lovely blouse,  retail $79 for under $25 free shipping.   Yes yes yes that's a win and I will have a new outfit to wear for my Christmas Brunch.

Everyone have a happy holiday!

Whitney already told you

 Today I just knew that I needed to write a post.  Sometimes I know what I am going to write before I start, and then other times, I'm just winging it. There are plenty of things on my mind and I still don't know what my topic of the day will be. That is until I know what it is going to be. I look at the people in my life every day.  No, not physically but logically and some of the time emotionally. I come to the same realization every time.  First off, there is no such thing as coincidence, in my opinion. I believe that the family you are born into is based on many things, but it is never a mistake.  When you meet your friends, lovers and others, it is for a divine reason.  All things work for the good.  Not some of the time; all of the time. Now let me be clear, two things can and are usually true at the same time.  You can have a happy life and feel joy while still feeling sad over certain situations. The reverse can also be true where in you f...

Cafe Bustelo with a little cream

 I don't even think there is a phrase that describes the feeling that I currently have about my life.  It has been approximately, a year and a half since I have last shared.  The truth is that I have barely even written anything beyond a text message in that time.  For a while I called it writer's block but now, I know that is not a true assessment. The truth is more emotion and far-reaching than that would connote. When last we spoke I believe I was legally ending the worse chapters of my life.  Now, this is not to say that some good times were not had in that more than decade of my life, but the bad times definitely outweighed the good ones.  The lessons were a multitude with nary a time to rest really.  I am good with the knowledge of this at this point.  There has to be bad in order to enjoy the good; the night must fall in order for the sun to rise; there would be no way to turn left if you didn't have the option of turning right.  You g...

True Confession!

I have a confession to make. It's funny because telling a secret or making a confession is a very hard thing yet once it's done that weight has been lifted and you feel a little lighter. That being said confession is just good for the soul. I know that the devil is trying his best to keep me from obtaining my destiny and this confession is getting ready to shame him because he is a liar and he will not kill or destroy me. I am taking back the power I gave him in this situation. I just had a birthday and I turned 36. I love when my birthday comes around. This year was no difference. Actually, it was a lot better than it has been in years. Partially because I spent my day getting to know a new person in my life but mostly because I have been getting to know myself. This is my real-life confession. I didn't begin to feel good about myself until I was in my 30's--I was around 32 actually. I had the most negative self-talk a person could have. My self-esteem and self-imag...
