GOODBYE SUMMER.

This is not so! I can't believe this weekend is Labor day weekend. It seems like every year I let the end of summer sneak up on me and I have no plans. I even tried to get in a mini vacay in the time share to Myrtle Beach before the summer is officially over but Nope! Not a chance...

In order to get to Myrtle Beach you have to almost book it a year in advance. Whhhaaat?? Crazy right?
So we just booked for next summer and that wasn't even a guarantee. We are on a waiting list.

ANY PLANS FOR THE WEEKEND?

Well, I don't have anything really planned but here are some of our(Mom) options for the weekend....

1. Go to Charlotte to my Aunt and Uncle's to put some hot dogs on the grill. And oh yea...a pinkberry trip! 

2. Riding to Columbia for some Roti! Mmmmmm....

3. Going to the movies to see Butler.

4. Watching LMN...

5. Baking

STAY TUNED!!

HAVE A SAFE AND WONDERFUL WEEKEND. ENJOY!!!

TRUST YOURSELF.

Trust yourself.

I get myself into trouble ALL the time. I have learned to trust and believe that I will learn and become stronger from ALL my mistakes. I have even learned to welcome and enjoy them. CRAZY RIGHT? Mistakes don't create regret for me when I have been courageous enough to go for it, especially Cancer. I have only regretted the moments I was too afraid to go for what I really wanted because of my fear to FAIL. For me, life is about creating an art of how to get out of the holes we fall into, not about creating an art of not falling into them.

A life AIN'T worth living if your not going to live it EVERYDAY. With the quick changes in my life, I had to learn this! 

Trust yourself to fail and to win. Trust yourself EVERYDAY to live the life you truly desire.

QUIET SUNDAY AND I AM BACK IN THE SC~!

ATL was awesome but it was GREAT to be home! I haven't unpacked anything. I just did NOTHING! 

Well, that is what I thought I was going to do but my mother had other plans....Making a quick dessert! It was quick and easy!

IT'S ALL GOOD! 


PEACH CRUMBLE DUMP CAKE!

Actually, it was pretty good. I used fresh peaches.
The recipe called for 9x13 baking dish but I decided to 
try a cast iron pan. SCORE!

SCANDAL

Happy Monday!

I know I am extremely late with this post but.....(wait)  

I HAVE JOINED THE GLADIATOR NATION!!!

Can you believe it? After 2 seasons I am finally on board. Well, this is what had happened.....laughing 
When the talk came about Scandal coming on I was excited about watching but it seems like I must have forgotten it came on. The weeks, days and then months went by and I just said forget it. I would see all these posts on my Facebook news-feed but I knew it was too far into the season for me to catch on. I really don't like watching anything in the middle of a show and especially a series.

A few weeks ago I noticed that BET was going to run all the episodes two weekends in a row. Finally, I will be able to watch what ALL the hype was all about. I knew it was no way possible I would be able to watch all day from 8am to 10pm. How am I going to do this because this is my opportunity and I can't miss out. Just in conversation with my cousin she said, Oh I watched Scandal! We can just tape them all and I will help you through it.She walked me through but not telling me too much but allowing me to figure things out but giving me minimal hints. I was sitting on the edge of my seat in between my "nanny" duties! lol

So bloggers, I am all caught up. Well, I thought I was caught up. They didn't show the season finale she said. 

WHAAAAATTTTTT!!!!!

She said its been a while but I am almost sure that is not how it ended. So we Googled it! 

Yup...I didn't see the last episode.

 Now I have to figure out when I can see the last episode. I'm hooked!!! 


      Fitz: [to Olivia] You can't fix the fact that I love you. That I love you more than I love being President. I have told you that I'd give it all up for you again and again, and you know what I think? i think you don't believe me. I think you believe that I will never choose you. Well, this time, I'm fixing things.
