Personal Highs
This was a great week. I celebrated my 36th birthday. In doing so I took the best trip with 3 other girlfriends including my girl Toi whose birthday was a week from mine. We had a great time in Chicago. Toibration as I called the 10 day celebration is a way to celebrate me. Everyone should celebrate themselves. If you can’t who will? I had the best time, ate great food, talked smack and hung out husband and kid free-see my blog on my trip! I want to thank my friends and family who celebrated with me in some way. Every call, text, social media shout out, gift, and card was appreciated!

Personal Lows
This has been a good week. I did eat a lot in Chicago that could have been a low but I worked out at the gym and did a LOT of walking.
Well until next week when all of the celebrations will come to an end. Please mom or not, do something good for yourself. To all of my followers who are moms enjoy your day. If you are experiencing Mothers Day without your mom or mother figure in your life my heart and prayers are extended to you all. If you have lost a child and the holiday affects you, I do understand and my prayers to you as well.
