Back

So I'm back in action!!!! Typing this from my new iPad mini my boyfriend got me!!! Speaking of which.. A lot has changed in the last couple of months...long story short... I have a new boyfriend!!! His name is Richard. He's honestly checks almost all the items on my list. Probably all of them but no one is perfect so I'll stick with saying 'almost'. I'm excited for this new journey in my life. This year has been nothing but an emotional roller coaster!! I'm just thankful for my life and my love ones. God is good. Hope to blog and write more as we enter 2016!!!!

Day 148

Hi. I honestly don't even know where to start. Things have changed a lot since my last post. Ok, so financially and business things have been amazing. Thank the Lord business is great!! No complains there. Always busy and doing something to better my business. Now, on the other side of that..home life..well it's just me and my dogs at home now. The person I thought was the love of my life is gone. Things happen so quickly and sudden. I don't know what or how things went so wrong. Mmm don't really have the energy to talk err write about it right now. I just know that my life is in God's hands. Everything that happened and will happen is for a reason, I may not understand now but I know I will later on. So I have moved on. I am sure I will have more to write on this subject but now is not the time.  Family is doing ok. It's a constant struggle but we will get through it all.

I can't believe it's almost June. Oh geez. My 25th year of life is almost gone, I will be 26!! Closer to my 30's!!!!!! Ahhh..can't believe it. I know the best is yet to come.
I will get my passion for writing  hopefully back soon. I just need to freshen up and focus on a few other things at the moment. I am moving at the end of July. New start is coming and I am soooo ready for it. I think that will be my comeback. Right now I just need a new routine and a new place to make my own memories. I don't have energy right now to put my emotions with my creative side if that makes sense.
Ugh ok that's enough. I got an appointment to go to. Til soon :)

Day 77.

Hello hi hola...It is great to be back! I actually have been trying to be back for the longest time ever.
I am exhausted. I feel like I need a couple days off. But not gonna happen lol..Not complaining at all. I love working and staying busy. I just haven't had a good break in a long time.

Not too much has changed. Working with my awesome buyers and sellers and getting deals closed! DUUUH!!!Life at home is good, my babe has a set schedule now so he no longer has to work odd hours and days. I am happy for him and very proud of what he is accomplishing.

 Eh..my family needs prayers. Things are a bit confusing? Not sure if that's the correct word but things get difficult with change. But ultimately, I am content that everyone is healthy and a live. Love those people no matter what.

Anyway..still working on my schedule..I thought I would have it down by now but it's ok. I know it takes time. Working out so far at least 2 times a week. I am trying to be more consistent with that, especially since it's almost April and that means 7 months until my first half marathon. I really want to be fit and be able to run the 13 miles within 2 hours. We shall see, I know I have time to get there if I really set my mind into it. Pray for me. Ha. I feel like I have gained more weight these days. Not sure what it is. But it's not good!! Ugh...

I think that's it for today..my mind is not really into this post..I just want to curl in my couch and fall asleep.

Day 68.

RECAP!!

Happy MARCH!!!!! ahhh..really..almost April?? gosh time is sure flying by (I say this every year ha). Anyway, it has been a very productive week. Got lots of work done and much more to do this week.

I still have to work on my schedule & routine for each day. It seems like every day is different now a days. Sometimes I have early morning appointments or errands to do and other times I get super busy in the afternoons and don't get home til after 7.  I think I really have to set my schedule and make all my appointments in the afternoon unless clients absolutely can't. I've learned in past experiences that mornings should be for preparing for the day and prospecting for new business. It helps to reflect on ideas to help me succeed and accomplish at least 1 goal for my personal and professional life each day. I also want to get my work out in the morning...first thing after I wake up. That's my next really important task that I am going to work on this week.

So last Wednesday, I had the pleasure of attending WPPI. It was a blast! I met up with my friend whom I met at the CSN photography program, Bob.  We just went to the EXPO and saw lots of awesome photo and video equipment.  I decided to shoot video instead of taking photos. Here it is:


On Saturday,  I did the Bubble Run at Sam Boyd with friends. That was fun! Now I feel sore but that's good lol.  Here's some photos:











 It's almost 11PM and I still have some cleaning and laundry to do before the start of a busy week. So, I will be back soon. ;)

Day 58.

**This post was suppose to go up yesterday but IDK why..I forgot to hit the publish button!!**

So far so good, except I have not worked out at all. Monday & Tuesday right when I woke up, I put on my work out clothes and shoes but what happen? Well life I guess...that plus Robert being off those days well..we had things to do.

Anyway..I gotta say this week has been good so far. I guess it does help that I started off the week with a positive mind. I am a happy bunny.

Now, I need my butt to start working out and getting in the routine of it!!!!! Ugh..I know I can do it...I know it...I just need to do it! lol.

Oh! I am also in need of doing more real estate prospecting...my goal is to close 50 deals this year and I know I can at least get very close to it if not do it! A step at a time. I am in the process of reading several motivational books to help me get inspire and push me to do things out of my comfort zone. I know that's the only way I'll succeed!!!!

No big weekend plans..mainly just hang out with fam. I still haven't touch my 'vlog'. I'll get to it..it's just not on the top of my to do list right now...heh..

Ok off to bed I go...

Day 53.

Happy Sunday Funday!! This is the current mood in my house right now:
 Chillaxing... didn't do much today. A bit of real estate work in the a.m. but that was it.
Currently torn between watching WWE Fastlane & the Oscars. I am flipping channels back and forth lol. Babe gets off of work at 10:30 today... meeehh...

It has been a great weekend though. I met up with a few clients, also had a quick lunch with my mom and sister, got my hair did, and played bingo with friends.

Here's me & my new hair...added a few lighter highlights. My hairdresser is going to help me go lighter. I have had dark brown hair for the last 3-4 years and I am so ready for a good change :)
I have a lot to do this week. A lot of things to take care of. I am also hoping for good news regarding a few of my real estate deals. God knows I need it. That's the thing with real estate, one week it can be awesome and the next it can really turn things around and suck! I laugh when people think real estate agents don't do much but give tours of houses. Ha! I wish that was the only thing I did and got paid for!

My plan is also to start doing 2-3 mile run every day this week! (me typing this as I eat m&ms) Let's see how that goes!
Oh also, I have some more footage for my vlog! Not sure if I'll have time tomorrow but most likely Tuesday.

I think that's all for today.

Day 51.

Well..well..well..things are going great. I love when unexpected turn of events occur..and I am talking about the good kind..I'll just keep crossing my fingers though.

Valentine's Day was cool this year. We didn't do much. I roasted a chicken,kinda. Potatoes and rice as sides. I bought Bob a watch to add to his new collection/obssession. He is know buying watches left and right lol. I also just ordered him this really nice watch holder from amazon but it hasn't arrived yet.  Oh and guess what he got me..A PRINTER!!Haha...Sounds lame but I really needed it. I  also ended up buying me a new MK purse that I am deeply in love with. We ended the night and next morning very happy ;) hehehe...

Oh also V-day morning, I had a quick photo session with Cris. Here's a few photos:





I am proud of him and everything he is accomplishing.

Work has kept me busy, but that's nothing new. I still have 2 listings I need to sell asap. Right at this moment, I don't really understand the market. Now that tax season is here, I am hoping these 2 will sell fast! I dislike when I don't have control over something like this. I just want to make sure my clients are happy and satisfy with my work maaan! I'll keep pushing for good things to happen, not gonna give up.

I started vlogging here and there but it's harder than I thought..and I feel like it's really boring lol. But what I'll do is vlog through the weekend and hopefully have the video edited by Sunday to upload.

Day 47.Long overdue.

So here goes my long overdue update of my life.
Since the beginning of the month life has been super busy. Ever day I have been getting home til about 8pm either showing homes or meeting with clients.
Here's a few pics of what happen to me in between work:










There ya go..pictures speak louder than words. I have been working my butt off trying to make deals happen. Unfortunately, there have been some negatives but I also just got 2 offers accepted so that's good news :)
I know things will only get better. I am currently organizing my 'creative space' aka office. I am trying to keep it as simple as possible but with a touch of sparklness (pretty sure that's not a word) lol.
Now that my schedule has changed, I can definitely say working out is in my near future. Also, I may be vlogging more ;) Excited!!!!!!!

Day 34.

Oopies daisyy... :(
I did it again... :(
You know blog, that I love you, but you know I have been extra busy these last couple of days right?
I'm sorry I neglected you.

Hehe..anyway..life has been crazy beautiful!! I've had appointment after appointment, new buyers, new sellers, new potential clients. AH! So excited :)

I have not worked out though. Which is depressing. Time passes but my fat doesn't. lol.
Honestly though, my schedule is about to change in the next week or so, and guess what!!! I will have more time to work out in the mornings YAY!
I can do it! Si se puede!

Life is good right now. I am thankful for it.

I will try to upload a better video of the what's in my bag later this week & will hopefully update here more often.

Day 21.

Hi Bloggy!

I am sleepy & want to go to bed so bad right now. I basically got done working for the day and it's 10:10PM. I started working at 7:30 this morning. Non-stop. It's cool but at the same time it's not. It was a very productive one but where did my day go? I wish we had more time in a day.

I wanted to do a 'what's in my purse' video to upload but no energy. I will do it tomorrow for sure. I wonder what I have in there..I haven't cleaned it out in a couple of weeks.
Well other than today being productive, I ate pizza for dinner. Soft food=pizza. Heh.

Anyways...I need to upload more music to my ipod...I find myself listening to the radio more often now a days..maybe I will go do that before I head to bed.

Here's a little to-do reminder for myself:

-CLEAN DESK AREA
-ORGANIZE PAPER WORK
-UPDATE FILES
-REX.NEEDS.HAIRCUT.STAT.
- BILLS.

OOOOOh and guess who gets a new phone on Monday!?!?!?

ME!!

DAY 19. & Too much information.

Hello there.

It's me! Remember me? Well it has been an eventful week/end.

Let's start off with last Thursday. I wanted to write a review for Rachel's Kitchen and I didn't have time. All I can say is that it's good food. It tasted very healthy and delicious. I will def. try again. Here's what I got:
To go packaging

Club 411 Sandwich, grilled chicken.

Chicken & Rice soup..the best part! With lots of Veggies.





I got home Thursday and made the chicken mole I had promise my amiga. Unfortunately, I didn't take any pics of the process :( It was late Thursday and I just wanted to finish. I gotta say, it wasn't exactly how I wanted it to turn out but it wasn't bad. I made white rice with it and ate it for lunch with my amiga on Friday. She liked it so that's all that matters really. Oh! She also announced that she got into the nursing program! So extremely proud of her and excited for her new journey!

On Saturday, I finally decided to go to the dentist. I've had this molar pain which we thought it was just a cavity. Turns out it was my wisdom tooth which did have a cavity. I didn't know my wisdom teeth came out! I ended up extracting both my top wisdom molars. I was a nervous wreck, especially being alone there. But it wasn't tooo bad, what suck the most was waiting forever. I got there at 10:30am and didn't leave til about 1. I wanted it to be over with. Here is a pic of my teeth. Not sure if I will remove my bottom wisdom teeth yet. No pain so I may not. I have a few cavity's I need to have filled so I am going back Feb 7 for that. Here's a pic of my teeth. Getting a cleaning as well :)
I sneaked this pic while in the chair..waiting..

Yesterday was fun. In the morning my mom, brother and I went over to my dad's apartment to have lunch. He made caldo de res. It was a bit hard for me to eat but I did it. Later that day, I went over Robert's parents house to watch the Colts & Patriots game. So its the Seahawks & Pats! I hope it'll be a fun and great game. I kinda want the Pat's to beat the Hawks, just because the Hawk's won last year. But if Seattle wins, I will happy too since they're reppin' the west coast :) Not sure what the plans are for Feb 1 but I am sure it will be filled with junk food ha.

Anyway. I am proud of myself for waking up at 5:45AM all last week and working out for 45 mins. This week, I gotta take it a bit slow because of my wisdom extraction but I will still be working out as much as I can.

Today,  is MLK Day. Lot's of places are closed but I am catching up on real estate work. I got to go to the office in a bit and also meeting up with a seller. I may have to meet up with a buyer since we plan on closing this week. I also am planning an open house for this Saturday so I have to get ready for that. I am doing announcements and flyers.

I think that's it for today. Like I said in the title, too much information and catching up.

Day 14

??? Why? Where? When? What?

Ok I know I haven't blog in a while. I'll be honest I was just not in the mood too. I think I overwhelmed myself last week. Anyway I am back and motivated!

I am excited to announce that I have gotten up at 5:45AM for the past 3 days ...and I have worked out for 45mins straight :) I can't wait to start seeing results. I know every day I work out and sweat, I get closer to my goal! Can't stop, won't stop!!!!!!!!!

Now on the eating side of this, well...I have decided to only eat restaurant food but no fast food at all. Any place that has a drive thru is off limits.  My other plan is to cook at least 3 times a week. I want/need to start taking lunch so I don't HAVE to go buy something. I have been going to fresh n easy but because of their construction going on, their microwaves aren't functioning. Hopefully they finish soon! 

I also got 3 new buyers this week!! Hope I can find them a home soon. I am doing my best to sell the listings I have as well. The market is a bit slow this time of the year but should be picking up very soon, especially with tax season coming up! Wish me luck!!

I think that's all for today... Gonna go hang out with babe in our new(semi-used) couches that his mom gave us :) I'll take a pic and upload later. Ps. I am working on a getting a home loan but good and bad news with that. I will leave it for another blog spot.

Day 9.

Happy Friday!!!!!

So excited that the first week of the year is over. It was a long but a very productive week. I got a lot of work done and only looking forward to more. I was and am exhausted though but I got a lot to do this weekend. I have several showing appointments, plus helping my family move places. It's gonna be busy.

Today was nice. I had lunch with my best Amaezing friend. She made a delicious chicken Parmesan spaghetti. I should of taken a picture of it. It's my turn to cook next for the both of us. She requested Mexican mole (pronounce moo-lee?) I've never made it but I'm always up for a challenge. Gonna ask my mom for the recipe. I'll definitely blog how it goes.

Right when I got home, babe told me to get ready. We were going out but he didn't say where to. We ended at Outback for dinner and there was a 45min wait! But we decided to wait it out. Finally got seated and ordered right away. I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich and mash potatoes and babe got the baby back ribs. So worth the wait. I also got a melon chelada, recommended!! Was delicious and a great way to end the work week with! After dinner, he took me to downtown summer, we went to sports authority, foot locker and champs. Babe got shoes and a sweater. He asked me to pick out shoes but I told me I'd prefer a purse lol. Then we went to the apple store and guess what!!!! We bought an iPod nano for me and an iPod touch for Robert. His iPod Classic broke a couple days ago and I've been meaning to buy me one. Love it so far!!! We went to a sports store on Trop & Fort Apache... babe got a panthers hat. I almost got a men's panthers shirt but I thought it looked really manly. They didn't have any women's panthers shirts :( they're not really my team but I'm cheering for them. Especially Cam Newton <333 ha.

We finally got back home and now watching the Blacklist. I gotta say I like this show for far. Red is awesome! And funny and charming.

Ok off to chill now.

Day 7.

HELLO! I am exhausted.

So update, I worked out on Monday!! I was suppose to work out today again but I just got home from showing homes and I am exhausted :( no energy. Plus I ate bad food today and my tummy hurts. Excuses? :(

OOHH and I also closed my very first deal of 2015 on Monday! So excited to start the year like that. I should have another closing in the next week or so if everything goes well. How exciting is that!!! My goal is 25 this year and I plan to accomplish it!!!

I am so ready for the weekend, I plan to do nothing but stay in bed..my body feels tired and with no energy. I blame it on the time of the month and probably the need to burn fat too! boo.

Robert took down the Christmas tree yesterday..kinda sad about that... he got me mad yesterday..
I asked him to do me a favor and he got an attitude with me..he says he didn't but he did! I rarely ask for favors so when I ask for one is because I really really need it. I was mad with him for the rest of the day and then we made eye contact and we both started laughing. lol. Weirdos I know!! But he apologized and we moved on..best not happen again :p

I think that's it for today, hopefully I will make more exciting blog post in the future!

Day 4.


So today started off lazy as heck. Robert watched 6 episodes of Nikita last night while I was sleeping. And of course I just had to catch up to him today. I watched all 6 episodes and now we're both on season 4! THE LAST SEASON EVER!! I honestly have never watched a tv show that gave me a headache..... caused by the suspense of each episode. My head wanted to explode a couple of times but I couldn't stop watching! I actually had mix feelings about this show today. I mean it's a good show but it seems like the story line keeps repeating itself. Get rid of Amanda already! I hate evil beeotches.  Ugh.

I had the left over pancakes for breakfast oh and also ate babes leftovers as well :) I am such a fatty! Oh well.

I cleaned the bathroom while watching the Cowboy/Lions game. No comment on that. Then I made myself taquitos (which sucked) and watched the original TMNT movie on Netflix. That movie is 1000093204093 times better than the one with Megan Fox. I took a little 20 minute nap somewhere in the  middle of it though. After, I turned the tv off and answered emails, did a bit of marketing for my current listings and updated a few files. I also just bought www.theparadisequeen.com YAY!! and it was only $4!!! YAAAY! I am still working on getting it redirected to here. Should happen in the next couple of days :)

Babe just got home. I predict junk food for late dinner while we watch Total Divas!!! Yup. I am sure that's happening.

I do plan on going to bed by 11PM. I really want to start waking up at 6AM again and do my whole work out routine before work. Let's see how it goes. Monday's are so tough!

Here are a few NYE photos AND a video enjoy...

Walking 1.5 miles to the strip.
 Don't ask where we got this USA Flag from.
 We ended up at the NYNY parking garage.
 The little brotha.
 Fireworks in our faces.

 The brother & the galfriend.

Day 3.

I was trying to blog yesterday but I spent the whole night trying to update this blog, come up with a cute name and figure out what the game plan is for this baby. So I present to you THE PARADISE QUEEN!!

So why the name? Well because I like it! No but really, I HAD to include Queen in the name somehow. And paradise well..paradise means a lot to me. Paradise is what I aim to live in, not only physically but mentally and emotionally. To me paradise is a place of tranquility, dreams, and bliss. That's exactly what I want to bring to this blog even though I know there will be times of darkness, at the end of the day I want to be in paradise. Paradise is also the name of a Coldplay song that reminds me of the times I started dating my love. Every time that song came on and we were together life just felt perfect. Anyway that's that. I'm keeping it. ;)

 

Today was a fun easy going day... Woke up around 9, got ready and headed out for a showing appointment at 10:30. Came home around 1 and babe was still sleeping. He woke up shortly after and we ordered pancakes from IHOP.

We watched the panthers vs cardinals game, picked up jack in the box and then watched the steelers vs ravens. Happy panthers won,sad steelers lost.

 

We just got back from the corner store...bought chips and drinks. Now we're chilling in bed watching Jack Ryan movie on netflix.

 

No plans for tomorrow as of yet. Babe wasn't suppose to work but he got called so it'll just be me.

 

I still have to upload nye photos! Maybe I'll do that tomorrow!
