My Swim I really didn’t wanna do
I had no desire to leave my house after work today but told myself I just had to go and swim 30 minutes. Well I did it and normally I’d say I feel great after but honestly as soon as I hit 30 minutes I was out and headed home for a hot shower and pajamas. But hey at least I got to the pool. 😅🤷🏻♀️

And I use the phrase “Told on” loosely 🤭
I applied this at 5:45 AM and around 12:00 PM I was told that a pleasant young woman said, “Tell THAT girl to tone it down with the vanilla next time.” I understand that vanilla isn’t a fragrance that everyone loves so that part doesn’t bother me. Well… none of it bothers me really. I actually find

My Mentor Told Me Something I Didn’t Want To Hear
Last night, my mentor called me out. And honestly, I needed it. One thing I’ve learned over the years is that growth doesn’t come from hearing what we want to hear. It comes from hearing what we need to hear. I’ve experienced success and I’ve experienced failure. Both have taught me someth

THE DAY I GOT HONEST WITH MYSELF

I Told Him I Didn’t Want The Stone.
I hate this pizza stone so much. Mostly because it’s SO heavy and I smash my fingers every time I touch this thing. I told him I didn’t want it because it’s too clunky and too big! But he wanted it anyway and I told him I’m not ever going to wash it. And I hardly even eat pizza, so I don’t use it

I DIDN’T LIKE WHO I WAS BECOMING
