—–>Hey Ya’ll! You made it, Lets get busy!
“She believed she could, so she did.” -R.S. Grey
See my about me for a little bit…. about me 😉
Here you’ll learn how I turned my DUST INTO DIAMONDS! I’ve mastered the art of living with minimal effort and maximum results using resources that are available to everyone! I’m just your average, everyday girl trying to make it in a cruel world! I’m your go to girl for everything beauty fashion and lifestyle but it doesn’t stop there. I dabble in a little bit of everything! I just about D I Y my way thru life in every aspect and I do it on a budget! I don’t feel the need to have the latest and greatest but sometimes its nice to “Keep up with Kardashians” As in staying trendy and relevant… but not in the same way they do. A Louis Vuitton and the latest Apple Iphone? I think not! I define my life, MY WAY! And you should, too! Just because it’s expensive doesn’t mean its the best, more often than not, the cheaper the better, in my experience. Don’t define your life by what someone else does, that results in depression and a lack of sense of self. Sometimes I like a trendy style but I don’t like the trendy price tag. I’ve found ways to get everything everyone else has but for a fraction of the price!
I am lucky enough to find ways to work at home in order to homeschool my child and not be a legal slave at a 9-5 just to spend that money paying someone else to raise my child. I had her and its my responsibility to raise her! I sacrifice a lot but I do that in order to give her EVERYTHING I wish I had growing up.. quality time with my parents, experiences, and life lessons that will actually help her navigate this beautiful life we were given! What better way to do that than to lead by example? I truly believe knowledge is power! In order to make an informed decision you have to have all the information! Do the research, let your brain soak it all up like a sponge so when you’re put in a certain situation you can weigh the pros and cons and make the best decision for you. You have to know the positive AND negative outcomes, not just the positive OR negative. Too many parents think they are protecting their children by hiding the truth from them when you are really just setting them up for disaster! I’ve always told my daughter to get ready because mama is about to add a few tools to her life tool belt! We should all be carrying a wealth of knowledge at all times!
Don’t get me wrong friends, I’m a HOT MESS but it works for me! I’m a lover of astrology, “truth speaker”, DIYer, organizer, decorator, cleaner, cook, plant lover, holistic, reader, couponer, planner/organizer, teacher, sister, daughter, and an absolute cat freak! Most of all I’m a TRANSPARENT, NON JUDGEMENTAL, CARING, LOVING, MOM BOSS! So, Hop on this hot mess express, LET’S DO THIS!
“Progress over Perfection”
NEVER FORGET: Be you and don’t apologize! You can be the sweetest, ripest, juiciest, most delicious apple on the tree and there’s always going to be someone who doesn’t like apples. You can’t change who you are to make other people happy. The reason that some people like you is the same exact reason other people don’t like you so you have to do what you have to do at the end of the day, NO MATTER WHAT! Don’t cater to anyone, cater to you so that you have a good experience because we aren’t here for a long time, we are here for a GOOD TIME! We’re here to figure out how to feel good. Pay attention and live life on your terms, not theirs! The goal here is to LIVE for a living!
