I HAVE BEEN TAGGED!!

One of my loves, and fellow blogger, tagged me in a 7 things about you thingy mabob. So here I go. Even though I feel 7 is not enough lol!

1. You may not be able to tell from my pictures, but i'm hispanic. Both my parents, grandparents, and so on are from Puerto Rico. The sad part of this is I don't speak spanish very well. Un poquito. See I'm not even sure if I spelled that right! That's okay though, i'm slowly teaching myself and telling myself that my parents just didn't want us to know what they were talking about, so English it was.

2. I tend to be a geek at times. I'm into a lot of Sci fi and paranormal stuff. I'm a HUGE fan of Star Wars and I think every creak and bump in the night is a ghost lol.

3. I'm a Gemini :) I don't understand how most people refuse to believe astronomy. My sign pretty much fits me perfectly. Some believe the Gemini is two faced, NO. To me it means split personalities. My mood swings are no joke. Lord have mercy!

4. Religion is a very iffy subject to me. I do have faith and believe in a higher power, but i'm not sure WHAT or WHO that higher power is. I also believe that prayer is strong, but to me it's more of a comfort thing. I'm just not sure what really is going to happen when we die. Do we reach the pearly gates of heaven or do we simply evolve into something better?? At times, I question it and tend to lean more on the science side of things.

5.When I decided to go back to school, I went down the medical field path. Don't get me wrong, it was good choice, but sometimes I wish I could go to culinary school. I love to cook and try to liven up recipes, and I love baking ESPECIALLY anything chocolate lol. There is something joyful about being in the kitchen and creating a wonderful meal for the family. Even a meal for yourself :)

6. I have two little girls who make my world go round. I couldn't ever picture my life without them. On my worst days, they have this ability to shine a light on it and make it better. The more they grow, the more I see myself in them. K is a tomboy and likes the things I like, and even has the same temper. Lee has this "i'm a princess" demeanor about her, and I can't help but see my girly side come out in her. Like all children, they have their days..and for all you mothers, you know what "days" i'm talking about lol, but it doesn't make me love them any less. It just builds me up to be a better mother.

7. I am an ANIMAL LOVER!!! I have a 3 legged Siberian Husky, who I treat like she's my child. She can be a pain in the booty, and sometimes I feel like putting her on "bad dog" on Animal Planet, but I could never get rid of her. I didn't rescue her, she rescued me. IDK I feel as if dogs have this ability to sense their masters feelings, and she has been a very loving dog on the nights where i'd cry myself to sleep.

Singing in the rain..

Had a little shopping day with my little sister, and decided to wear something that I feel is more my style. It was raining..of course..all day..again, So I didn't want to do it up too much. I did realise today that I LOVE driving with heels on...I can reach the pedals better lol!


Grey tank-Wet Seal
Dark grey ripped jeans-Macys
Black ankle studded boots - Traffic (my fav boots)
Beret-Payless
black and grey long sleeveless sweater-Kohls

la la laaaa

Good Morning! It's such a rainy crappy day today. I'm debating if I even want to venture out in it. If I do, i'm definitely not even going to dress up. But, just a quick little post on some things I bought not too long ago, and wanted to share with you :)

I needed a lotion that was going to really moisturize my skin and that was affordable. Vaseline total moisture conditioning lotion is an ok product. Isn't my favorite, but it gets the job done. I recently got all my dead ends chopped off and am focused on keeping my hair as healthy as possible. Since I straighten my hair alot (which is a big cause to hair destruction) I bought Frizz Ease straight fixation. It works great and smells good too! Last but definitely not least is a product for my natural curly hair. Normally, I just use mouse, but it tends to leave my hair hard and crispy which is something I HATE! Curly Sexy Hair curling creme is awesome. It smells good, and just a little bit helps maintain the frizz and keep the curls in tact. Was a little bit on the pricey side, but it's worth it.


Sally Hansen Nail polish in "Pedal to the metal"
N.Y.C lipstick in Mahogany.

Excuse the Disney Princess background lol

Aren't these earrings gorgeous?? I found them on sale at Beals. Originally 20.00, I got them for about 6. If you can't tell they're peacocks with light pink and white rhinestones in the tail.

Darth Vader? Where?

Good morning fine folks! Let's get this post started! This past Sunday was K's 6th birthday. Let's read that again...6TH BIRTHDAY! I can't believe how time flies. It feels like just yesterday she was taking her first steps. Now she's in school and is her own little person. Makes me want to cry. *sigh* Anyway! AS you can see, the party was star wars themed. She had NO idea I was throwing this party. The look on her face when she walked through the door was priceless. Unfortunately, no one got a good shot of that on their camera :( It was a very fun filled day with cake, ice cream, music, presents, games and even a pinata this time..which couldn't even handle 3 hits before it broke open lol. Such a great day!

missing teeth and lady shoes ;)


GUESS WHAT! K lost her first tooth last night! It came as a complete surprise. I knew it was a little loose, but I didn't think it would come out that fast! She was happy then scared when she saw the blood, but she got over it quickly once I told her she's turning into a big girl! We sat down and drew a picture for the tooth fairy, and put the tooth and the picture in an envelope under the pillow. The "tooth fairy" must have loved it because she left K a dollar ;) Look at her big goofy smile!


In other news, I'm still feeling under the weather, and this cough can go to hell!!! TO HELL! But, I did say i'd post the shoes I bought this past weekend. I can never pass up a good sale and Payless had their BOGO shindig going on and mommy likes BOGO :)


I am IN love with these gray suede shoes. They were only 24.99! The flats are called the "popstar" i'm not gonna lie, the saleslady talked me into them lol. They were half off so what the hay!

I recently came into a little bit of money, and it's been A WHILE since I've indulged in some shopping. My sister and I decided to sneak away for a few hours to the mall!

I had such a hard time figuring out what earrings to get. I must have picked up thousands of different styles, but the wings stood out to me. I can't wait to get my jewelry box full of funky acccesories!

I'll post my shoes and new hat tomorrow, but for now I need to get some sleep to help nurse this cold!
