HEY YA'LL HEY!!!

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

Good Morning Divahs! It's officially my Birthday, AKA Soul Day, AKA Born Day, AKA National Holiday!

 Woo Chile, is all I can say...

There have been many ups and downs, losses and gains, but at the end of the day, I'm still here. Not only am I still here, but I'm surrounded by the most awesome and amazing people. These folks keep me lifted daily. I don't know what I would do without them. 

Each birthday I take a critical look at my life and I always come up with the same thought, "You aren't doing too bad, but you're not where you should be."  As you can probably tell I am extremely critical of myself and sometimes struggle with viewing myself as positively as others do. I feel there is always room for improvement. Those feelings have a tendency to rob you the opportunity to celebrate all the good moments. 

 This year will be different. This year, I will only look at my accomplishments as I reflect. I will celebrate the hurdles I've jumped, celebrate the moves I've made and look forward to my amazing future. Yes, I'm speaking it into existence!!

Time to celebrate!
