Let’s Be Spontaneous
Lately if I had to pick one word to describe my life it would be....Spontaneous. And I must admit I am loving it.
Now I am a planner. I plan a lot of stuff and like structure so for me to be spontaneous throws me off. My day my plans and I have been having a great time.
My day is unpredictable. Most of ours are like that. Never know what the day would bring. What if you threw in some fun in your day? What if you did something out of your norm? How magical would that be?
My girlfriends love it. Love my stories. Love my responses. They crack up lately.
Spontaneous can be a “hey wanna go for a walk” “hey can you meet for lunch” “hey let’s get together tonight” “ hey can you meet tomorrow”
I never used to love Weekdays like I do now. I never take life for granted. I love life. You should too.
Are You Stuck? Change Your Life
She’s amazing and actually coming out with a talk show. Watch this TedX. Never feel stuck in your life. Get what you want.
Some clips on her 5 second rule
You Don’t Always Have To Be Ok
You don’t always have to be strong and happy and good. Especially...Men.
Oh men. You can be weak and sad or stressed. It’s ok. We don’t expect men to always hold back their feelings or not be overwhelmed. But it’s all in your approach.
I find it extremely sexy when men open up about their feelings and emotions. Sounds silly but it actually means they trust you. They feel comfortable with you to confide in you.
Men it’s ok to confide in someone and vent. We don’t expect you to take on the world without some emotions attached to it.
You Make Me Happy
When was the last time you were with someone and you walked away thinking wow they really make me happy?
That person...the one who makes you feel this way plays a very important role in your life.
They will help keep you young and enjoying life. Now it’s not just a partner or someone you date or see. It’s friends. It’s family. It’s your kids. It’s co workers. Anyone who makes you happy plays a very important role in your life. Be sure to be around them often. They will help you feel alive. They add years to your life.
This weekend I was around a lot of good feeling make me happy people. I must say I went to bed happy and woke up happy. How lucky am I and you to have simple things in our life...people who make us happy.
I ran into a friend at an event. This person is like a ray of sunshine always was always will be. I lite up when I saw them.
How amazing to know that you too make someone feel that way? That you can be someone’s ray of sunshine too. Yep. Life is pretty magical and so are you.
Let Go Of Your Insecurities
We all have insecurities. It’s normal. Even the prettiest or in best shape girl questions herself I said to a girlfriend. I had to call her and break it down. I had to tell her that a friend of mine I have been friends with since last summer I still get self conscious around. It’s normal. I bet he does too around me. It’s human. We all second guess stuff. We all wonder what the other person thinks and how they view us.
I remember the last guy I dated for like 5 months everyday we went home I wasn’t sure when I would see him again. Isn’t that crazy? Crazy to think of what if he doesn’t like me tomorrow. What if he doesn’t call. What if he realizes he doesn’t want to be with me anymore. And then he didn’t want to be with me anymore and guess what life goes on. So dumb I know to worry about things when things will just happen without our control anyway but it’s something that we all do. We are our own worse enemies.
Trust me they will call again. You will see them again. They think you’re beautiful and perfect or else they wouldn’t enjoy your company. Let the insecurities go. Trust me I have to work on it too. We are perfect the way we are. Embrace it. And if you’re not happy then make minor changes in you but for yourself. No one else. And if they don’t call again or want to see you again than it’s their lose. You’re amazing and perfect just the way you are. If they can’t see it then let them walk away.

Happy Grandparents Day!!
How lucky are we to have amazing Grandparents for our kids. Thank your parents. Be grateful for Grandparents...Always!
You Pretty...Prisoner
Let me tell you what it’s like being a single mom
Humor. Laughs. What the...moments.
I swear I am cool. I am getting ready to go out to dinner and my 10 yr old walks by me and says “Mom
you look nice” Why thank you! I replied. She then says “you look like a pretty prisoner with the stripes.”
And that my friend is what it’s like parenting a pre teen or any child for that matter.
Let Go Of This Idea In Your Head and Enjoy Your Reality
This life you have...embrace it. It’s all happening for a reason. Enjoy it 💗
3-Month Pass Sky Zone in Norwalk
Buy a 90 day pass for $49 per child for one hour of unlimited jumping. It cost me this per time we go to Sky Zone so when I brought the girls I had to get this pass. Perfect for exercising during the chilly weather or for days it rains. The cool thing is their Dad or anyone can bring them they just have to give their name at the register.
Awesome place for the kids and entertaining for the parents too.

DJ Mom...Or Not
I sang 99% of this song in the car with my girls when it came on the radio. Their reaction was priceless. I like to think I am a pretty cool, hip mom so when I shouted Dj. Mom my 10 year old replied you mean Dj. Embarrassing. I must say it was a good laugh and maybe to them I am not as cool as I think!
Dating Isn’t Easy
Dating isn’t easy. We all have in perfections. Flaws. “Baggage” It’s those who make you happy. Who teach you about life. Love you. Help you see what really matters. How life should be lived. Those people that’s your people.
Osteria Romana in Norwalk
What a great place. I haven’t been in a while. Was an awesome crowd. They have a pre-set dinner option but we decided to order off the menu. I ordered the eggplant rollitini and cavatelli with tartufo. Really good. Great service. After we went to Romannacci for cappuccinos and crepes. They even have biscottis.
Norwalk really has some amazing restaurants. This was a great one. Great company. Great night.

Breakfast For Two or Three or Four
Who says making breakfast has to be hard or expensive. I bought these items at Trader Joe’s over the weekend. Was perfect for breakfast. Eggs with gyro meat avocado topped with tzatziki and feta.
I love this gyro meat. You heat it in a pan. Package is $3.99. I also love Trader Joe’s tzatziki sauce. It’s great on salads,Chicken and gyro meat.
What’s your favorite breakfast to make?
Feel To Heal To Let Go
Everything teaches us something. My hearts been at peace. My body and soul. My ex and I have been civil. It’s a rollercoaster ride and I don’t even participate in any arguments and he’s been trying his best too which benefits our kids. My kids are happy. My family is healthy and happy. My social life has been amazing. I don’t want to fight or be mad or be sad. I want to be at peace. I want to be happy. I want to create memories around good people. Your focus should be that too. To set your soul on fire. To laugh so much that your stomach hurts. To be around people who genuinely want to be around you and love you and make you smile and enjoy your company. People who want the best for you and you want the best for them.
Everyday of my life I try to do something that makes me happy. Even if it’s just a walk. You have to learn to do the same. I am not perfect. I make a lot of mistakes. I am learning how to work through them to change to not react because I am not getting what I want. To process. To feel. To know that people will come
in and out of your life and you have to not hold on to them hoping they can be something different for you. I had to accept loving someone I couldn’t be with. Yeah it hurts but it’s ok to love them from afar and move on with your life. I never had to experience this before. Ever. I am learning everyday new things about life. You have to learn to go with it too.
You have to go through a process of letting things go. I am.
Here’s a great article to start.
You Got This!
💗
You are worthy and capable. I finally got my passport pictures done... can’t wait to see if I need to use it. I would love to finish my books. I have so many goals. So many things I want to do and see and experience.
I want you to feel alive about life too!

What Relaxes You?
The second my feet hit the sand I became relaxed. There’s something about the beach. Ocean. Breeze. Sunset.
Was an awesome afternoon.
Take the time and do the things that relax you and make you happy.
This Week’s Trader Joe’s Find: Plumcots
Part plum. Part apricot. Love when I find different stuff to try. Trader Joe’s always has different types of fruit and food. It’s really always my favorite grocery shopping store.
I couldn’t help myself but had to buy the $3.99 bouquet. Even though my other flowers are doing fine I just thought these were so cute.
Don’t ever deprive yourself of flowers. $3.99 for something that will make me smile for the next week, I’ll take it.
Slice of Saugatuck in Westport
So much fun!!! I love this festival. You get so many samples and large ones too. We got to even sample drinks and purchase ones to walk around with.
My favorite like last time was ... Kawa Ni. I am just a super fan of their tomatoe tofu pocket. It is by far my favorite thing ever.
We walked away stuffed and happy. Lots of laughs. Good vibes. Perfect weather.
If you got a chance to attend what was your favorite?
