Happy Friday and cheers to the weekend. It has been an extremely busier week than normal. With that being said, let’s talk about the highs and lows of the week and any and all media events for the week. I hope you had a great week. Oh and today’s blog makes the 8th for the week. Don’t worry I’ll highlight them in today’s blog if you missed one. We are really gearing up for my Blogiversary which starts in November.
Sick Husband
My husband been sick for the most part this week. No, it’s not Covid-19. We had him checked. Either way trying to work around him and allowing him to heal has been challenging. He is on the mends. I am glad because with Covid-19 that’s the first thing that I and others think about. This was a reminder that with all things, Covid-19 isn’t the only form of sicknesses that can happen. Also we are in the cold and flu season. If you aren’t vigorously washing your hands and wiping down surfaces, please increase it.
Inis Nua Theatre: Last Friday Fun
For the first media event since the last update blog a week ago, I attended the show, “A Holy Show.” It was amazing to be back in theatre as I do quite often a lot of theatre reviews. Thank you to the entire staff of Inis Nua for always welcoming me. If you haven’t read the review, please do. The show is in production until October 24, 2021.
Navy vs Army
We attended the soccer game of Navy vs Army. It was an amazing time to be at the Subaru Park stadium. I love going to soccer games now that my son plays. We enjoyed family time after spending most of Saturday having the most down day. I took the nap of a lifetime and I needed it. If you are wondering Navy took the win. We sat in the front row and a little too close to the action. The ball came into our direction but no one was hurt and that is all that matters. Can’t beat family time and fresh air.
Mental Health Day
Sunday was Mental Health Day. A day to encourage those who are dealing with mental health issues that it’s okay to not be okay. I highlight this often. A lot of it has to deal with going through it myself openly. So if you suffering in silence I understand that too. Keep in mind you aren’t alone. There are those who look really well put together who suffer and aren’t okay.
Your Personal Branding
I attended the Diva Girl Your Personal Branding workshop. It was taught by Robyn Graham. She is an author, new book coming out in the top of the New Year, Photographer, Podcaster, Blogger, and Coach. I enjoyed hearing ways to strategize for maximum reach for your business. Also it’s always good getting a new headshot too. Thanks to Majet for organizing these great events for women to build and network.
Figo Italian open Friday (today)
Time for some amazing food at Figo. What a red carpet welcome? From the pasta and cocktails, pizza, and appetizers-Figo is your go to for excellence. The location is visually stunning. I had a great time with of course Elle of Siponwhat. They officially open today so be sure to get there. You will absolutely put this location at the top of your go to.
Dr. Juice Philly
I will be blogging a full review tomorrow. They premiered their new Fall menu and it’s delicious. The hospitality and the food was so delicious and fresh. This is a plant based shop where you can get your juices as well as drink shots for all of your health needs. Thank you Dr. Juice for having me. Full blog, prepped for tomorrow so stay tuned.
Wonderspaces is Back
Wonderspaces the interactive and self-guided art exhibit is back with 16 installations. It is hands on and better than ever. I attended the media event. It was so much fun. We all had to have our masks on but definitely worth it. In my review, I give my information on what to expect as well as details on the bar that is running too.
Kids on Television
Every so often I get asked to make an appearance on television. My kids and I were (mostly them) showcased their Halloween costumes. It was about letting others know that Boo at the Zoo is back. Boo at the Zoo was the only Halloween focused event that we did last year considering Covid-19 was strong. They were on PHL17 with Sophia Cifuentes. They will be back on television today, I will update.
Blogs coming up this upcoming:
Sunday Message

So when I say it was a busy week, I truly mean it.
Conversations with Toi Friday Drop
Fridays are for a new episode. We are talking about the safety of women in life and especially with traveling. A woman reported that she checked into a hotel and a man attempted to break into the hotel with a key. So listen in for that as well as check my Amazon page for travel security for everyone.
Teneral Cellars
Teneral Cellars is back with their newest wine that supports women. They will donate $10 for every 3 pack of wines sold to The Endometriosis Foundation. This wine drop is about sipping with a purpose as well as starting the conversations with our girlfriends about breast cancer. Use my code Toi20 to save.
So yes this weekend is busy too for mostly family oriented events but still. I hope you have a great weekend and find something that is soothing for yourself to do. Please practice self-care daily. Happy Friday and have an amazing weekend.
