  Recommended Items For Home Workouts      I, like many, had a gym membership before and during Covid, but unfortunately, my gym felt it would be a liability to open back up the daycare section, which forced me to end my membership. If I allowed this to bum me out and set me back on my fitness journey, I would have disappointed myself. So this caused me to look into starting and building my personal home gym. At the beginning of the Covid shut down many of the gym accessories were becoming few and in between because many had the same idea as I did. Now, since things have opened back up you will have no problem getting items like dumbbells with no hassle. One may feel slightly intimidated by building a home gym because there are a number of things you can buy. So to begin I jotted down the weight loss goals I wanted to achieve. For me, I had some baby weight I wanted to shed and then some toning up to do. Being aware of this I then began to research many exercise moves and different hom

So guys let’s talk about this addiction I have with this website lol. I mean I cant be the only one right? Anyways lately I have been heavily relying on Amazon.com for all my needs since me going out into the stores are just not ideal right now with the new Omicron or Deltacron Covid-19 variants going around. I feel comfortable for my children and I to limit our contact with people. So, since having all this spare time it gave me the opportunity to explore Amazon.com for all its worth and with that I have found some gems that I have to share with you guys. These are clothing items from Amazon.com very own clothing line. The material they use is of very good quality. I’m telling you, you won’t be disappointed if you go ahead and buy these pieces. You can wash these items several times and they won’t shrink nor will the color fade. The material is soft on your skin and very comfortable to lounge around in. Since let’s be honest lounging around is pretty much all I have been doing rig

      If you are like me then I know that you also are guilty of putting everyone before yourself. But ladies and gentlemen, this will be the year that we won’t forget ourselves any longer. I have made it my responsibility to love me first. I can’t give my all to my family if I don’t put myself first. Over the past many years, I have always placed my children, friends, and family before my own needs and got to the point where I lost myself. It was like the days just all seemed to begin to mesh together and feel the same, as though I was in the Twilight Zone and I was just living for them and not for myself. All my goals and dreams that I wanted to accomplish were placed on the back burner because I did for everyone else and failed to do for myself. So this year we are putting ourselves first. We are working on our health because a healthier me/you equals happiness and more years added onto our lives. Get up and put on that sexy dress, or that suit, fix your hair, and if you are into m

Happy New Year is in order as we enter the year 2022. So I have come up with a list of 5 things that you as well as I can do in 2022. There were many things I must admit I struggled with or found myself wishing I just made just a little bit more time to incorporate some things into my routine that would place me on a better path in 2021 and years prior. Well, this year I made it a must to do everything on my list, and I hope you can as well adopt this list into your lives. So what can these things possibly be you may wonder, well let us go into it. 1. Become more active: Even though I am a mother of two very energetic boys and I am always on my feet I don't count that as my activity of the day. I want to be able to do something different from my normal routine. So I have begun to stretch more and took up lifting weights. Nothing crazy at the moment because safety comes first, but enough weight that gives my body a good burn without causing injury to my body. So if being active isn&

Now I’m not typically a person who has time to turn on the television being a busy full time mom of two very energetic boys and a full time healthcare worker. So I literally have to make sure to keep my sanity schedule some mommy time. So when that time does come there are some shoes that I kick back with a cozy blanket, some tea, and a few snacks on the side to watch. I like to stay away from the “reality” shoes because it’s honestly not that entertaining to me, to scripted and fake. It also tends to depict the female and African American women in a bad light. I’m into the gruesome drug, murder, thriller types of shows and documentaries. Lots of the shows I find entertaining is actually based on actual events that took place in the world and is relatable and informative. I guess me being a criminal justice major is truly what heightens my joy for most of the shows on my list. My top 5 binge worthy shoes currently are as follows: 1.) Law and Order SVU(Special Victims Unit) now this s
