Taking ME BACK!!!

      Lately, I have been neglecting what I love to do and that is blog. Blogging has become my outlet and I haven't had that recently because of other extra curriculuar activities.  At the beginning of the school year, I volunteered to be one of the cheerleading coaches at my elementary school. The one thing I truly believe in, is giving back, so I thought why not give back to the students I see everyday. Along with cheerleading, I started  a mentor program for girls ages 10-16. AND..... on top of that, I am a MOMMY to a 15 year old and 5 year old. My day starts at five'oclock in the morning and most days it doesn't end until I lay my head down at 10'clock that evening or much later depending on whether I have completed my household chores. I have felt so tired lately, that I was sick for two weeks with a nagging cold that just wouldn't go away. It wasn't until I sat down today and realized that for the last 4 months I have been going non-stop... My body shut down on me, literally on Monday and I could not go to work. I layed in bed all day. I soon realized that if I didn't start taking care of me, I wouldn't be any good for my kids. So today, I am taking ME BACK!! Saturday, will be a Pamper Me day for ME... Starting with my hair all the way down to my toes... and hopefully, I can have a dinner date with a friend or two. I am NEVER GOING TO GIVE UP WHAT I ENJOY DOING BUT I WILL LEARN TO PRIORITIZE MY DAILY LIFE... I will continue to wear the Wonder Woman cape but when it comes times for me to do me, I WILL!!!!

  1. Yes! The saying is so cliche but so true. We must take care of ourselves. Glad you're back!
