I am going back to Weight Watchers

Yep, I am going to Weight Watchers on Saturday. Pray for me ya'll. The meeting is at 8am and I have to get up by 6:30 in order to get there on time. I say getting up that early and driving 25 minutes to the nearest W.W. will show my motivation. I will keep you updated.

It's makeup review time....New Picture

If you know me you know that I will NOT spend huge amounts of money on make-up. I dont wear it often enough to break open my purse to drop them big bills. Well anyway, As you know the trend for this year is matte lipsticks. I am a lip gloss girl so I have to add some lip stick to my collection. 

When I was out shopping at my neighborhood's version of Dollar General, Fred's, I found a woman of color makeup collection. I didnt go crazy YET!!! I did buy a thing of lipstick. Its by Diamond Cosmetics The Jazz collection. I believe that I paid $1.00 for it. When I find my receipt I will up day. Though on their website the lipstick was 1.24. This color is Golden Oak. It is a shimmery Bronze color. You can see the color very well in my swatch but it is a beautiful color with my complexion. It is very subtle. A great everyday color.

This product gets some applauds from me. Being that it is an dollar it wasn't bad. I would buy again. Actually, This weekend I am going to purchase some more from this maker. Am I late with this find? Is this product new or been around for a minute? Well at any rate its not a bad buy so far when it comes to it's Jazz Collection Lipsticks.

Live to my potential

I dont know if I blogged about this before. I have to go back and read but for 2010  I said that I am going to live up to my potential. God has planned greatness for me and I am going to live or journey to that greatness. I have so much potential but at times I feel like I accept average because it's easy. Well this year things are going to change. Keep track of me because I want you to witness and take this journey with me. I have to learn to not accept average. I have to be above average. Live my potential......


This is from my phone so pls forgive my errors.

love ya.

I woke up with this on my heart this morning

I lost a old friend recently because of statements that was made. It broke my heart that I felt the need to walk away from a friend after so many years. I have come to realize if people are jealous and hurtful, they really dont have a place in your life. You have to pray for them and keep moving.

Well anyway....This has been on my heart lately because it wasnt something I did to end the relationship. It was something that I was blessed upon and then came the nasty comments. But I woke up this morning and this was echoing in my head. 


"Dont be jealous of someone else's blessings. You will never know what God has in store for you. All jealousy does is block all those potential blessings."

Right then and there I felt better about taking a break from this friend. I believe that this friend even reads this blog from time to time. I will always love them but I had to set boundaries.


As for me, I was blocking my blessings as well. I cant feel bad about what the Lord gives me. What God has for me it is for me. I have to realize that I cant please everyone in my lifetime. I have to live according to his will. I have to appreciate all that he has given to me. If not, why should God even bother???

M.I.A for a lil bit

Hey Lovelies....

Carol's Daughter

I have heard all the talk about the greatness of Carol's Daughter products. Well guess what, I am believing the hype. For Christmas I received a gift set. It contained a wide tooth comb, Healthy Hair Butter, Health Hair Smoothie, and shampoo. While I was on vacation I cut most of my hair off. I usually do this yearly. When I went to get my hair done, I was told that I had really dry hair. I knew this. She told me to use a regiment promoting moisture. My Christmas gift was perfect. I washed my hair last night and used all the products included. My hair came out really soft. I actually used a lil grease as well. My hair came out beautiful. 

Similiar to my gift set...minus the leave-in,.  

I will be getting the leave-in as soon as I can get to the store.

As you know I have to try a product for at least a month before I give my 4 stars but I think this group of products will work out for me. I will keep you posted.
