Life has changed.

You know the more I grow older the more I realized how time really does fly.
This year 2020...a lot has changed.
I went into this year thinking it could be the best year of my life...I thought things were good. I knew we had to make a life changing decision mid year as our lease was coming to an end. I had to think about our next step. Was it purchasing a new place, renewing our lease, moving to EP?
I didn't put much thought into it back in January. Our main focus was going on vacation in February. For the first time in a long long time, I would visit family from both of my parents sides.
It was amazing...they were the best vacations of my life!! Honestly, I wish they would've lasted longer.
At that point dad was happy, he was not 100% but he felt fine. We went on our long overdue honeymoon, left my dad behind with his family. Came back home. Got to work. Then the pandemic came. Everything shut down. Things became slow, people scared, no place to go. I thought okay this is fine, we needed a break from our break anyway. My dad decided to come back. We picked him up and just 6 days later he passed away at home in our arms. I will never ever forget that day. He was okay in the morning, I checked his vitals, he was just okay but we thought we monitor him before dedicing to go to the hospital. He didn't have any symptoms of covid. But by 3PM he wasn't okay....he didn't complain, he didn't scream, he didn't cry...nothing..he just passed out in the bathroom on his walker. Seemed like he was going to get water, or wash his face. I can only imagine what  he was probably feeling... maybe that he was going to faint. His heart gave out, his body couldn't do it anymore. When I saw him, I thought he had just passed out. But he wasn't there anymore. I miss you papi. I wish I had more time with you.
My dad was in my plan of what to do when July 2020 came around.... we had to make the decision of our next home.
Now that we're here, I wonder would we be in a different position? Would we be moving to EP?  What if COVID was never a thing...would life be different? So many questions with no answers.
I just have to remember to life for today. Enjoy each and every breath I take.

Time flies, life is short.

New year hello

Sooooo here we are, 2018...life is good.
I am happy and excited to be here!!
This year I want to focus on the now.

I have been busy lately..very...the market is crazy.

Now is the time

Here I am again, time has flown by. Another month around the corner to come. Its crazy, they say, how time goes by. I cherish every moment I live for I do not know whats next. I am happy. I am extremely grateful. I have so much to accomplish and so much to do. I do slow down because I cannot foresee the future. What is the point of stressing over things that haven't happened. I just work hard today to see the results tomorrow.

Sitting next to a hospital bed

Such a beautiful day outside today, looking from this large hospital window in my dads room.
He is here again here. This time he fell and broke his elbow. Unfortunately, the elbow became infected and now he has to have surgery. So now we wait..wait and wait. Poor guy. He's been in the hospital about 7 times in the last year. He's strong, brave and still, in the midst of this situation, happy. I am proud to be his daughter. He is really one of a kind man, a man I thank God for.
I wish my brothers and sisters would be here giving him the support he needs.

Anyway, besides that. Life is good. Bae moved in! I am extreme excited and happy to share our home. I mean he basically already lived there but now its official. He moved his things and everything. I am ready for this new chapter in our lives. I am stoked to wake up next to him every day!!I am optimistic that this will help us grow in our relationship and continue on this awesome journey through whatever life throws at us, good or bad.

Work is ok. Could be busier but its good. I purchased my first car to flip. I have to wait for the title to come in but I think I can get half or more of what I invested in it. Its a 2005 Hyundai elantra with lots of miles but in good condition. lol. We shall see.

Ok, I think I am going to go back home for now and come back later once we know what time the surgery will be. Dad is falling asleep....

I have to do laundry and go grocery shopping so we can start meal prepping again. About that..I gained 15 pounds back from the 23 I lost a couple months ago...ahhhh..its ok..not going to beat myself up. I am just going to go back on track. I have my schedule set, I know what foods to eat, I know I will have good and bad days but its ok...I will make it a lifestyle. That's the goal.

2017 2017 2017

HOOOOLY cow!!! Another year is here!!! 2016 was awesome..it really was one of the best years of my life!! It was full of adventures, happiness and love lots of love. Of course,  I had my bad days. I had days I felt like giving up  but who doesn't. That's life. Anyway, let's talk about now.
Right now. We have a new president. All I can say is that God is in control. At this moment in life, I want to pursue my passions. I want to start writing again. I want to start taking photos again. I want to fall in love with nature and spend more time in it. Those are a few of my personal goals.
I also want to vlog/blog more. I want to find my niche when it comes to this side of things. I want to become more creative. I want to do so much!! Sometimes I don't even know where to start.
Every day is a new day!!

Day after Thanksgiving!

I am so full but I LOVE IT!!! Today I am taking the day off as much as I can. I am just going to relax & try not to worry about anything.
No black Friday shopping for me this year!!My head kinda hurts thinking about the stress of black Friday! NO thanks. However, I will be on the look out online for any good deals on things I like.
Like things for my office or planners :)

Anyway, last night was cool & pretty chill. We spent most of the night outside by the firepit just chatting & laughing. Good times & memories.

I am still working on planning my days out better.. you know.. getting up at a certain time, working out, eating, working, blogging, cleaning... etc etc....

BUT today is not the day for that..today I will lay down in bed & do nothing!

Happy Thanksgiving 2016! I am thankful for life everyday.

WHAT!!

What is up!?!?!  Long time!! Ok so it's almost the end of year! 2016!!!!! Today is also election day!!! We will have a new president today!! History will be made today...
It's scary to think what will happen next. I only hope God has mercy over us cuz honestly I do not know.
I am planning on vlogging...going to the store to get a new camera today. I also have Rich's gopro! I like the gopro, its just sometimes the wide angle is too much lol..defintely will use it though.
I need to stick with it this time... Its fun & I have time to do it.

Work is ok..this year was a bit slower than last. I need to focus on providing a good service for everyone.

Mmmm..I think that's all for today. I will start writing a list of topics to start blogging about again.
I think I want to include fitness, recipes & some fashion.
We will see how it goes.. :)

March 4.

Why is time flying by sooo darn fast?
xoxo

Hi Blog

DUDE!! It's Feb already..how in the heck is time flying by so quick...well big news...I am back with Rich...we were only broken up for 4-5 days lol..I realize he is a good man and I had to let go of my fear. Fear of getting hurt again...I'm the one who's always saying love is risk. So this time I am giving it my all. Love is a risk.  Since we've been back together, things have been different. In a very good way...I feel more like myself when I am with him. Now I know that no relationship is perfect. Things aren't always going to be rainbows and sunshine. But I willing to go through with it in the name of love.

We went to Cali this past weekend..I had the time of my life. It was awesome, everything was great!!
God is good.

Because

Because things change so quickly. But guess what....I think I've gotten the hang of this...life is mysterious...it's crazy/beautiful.

Well I am single again and that's ok. I wasn't planning on settling for less than I deserve. Things changed. I realize that I have become a very hard person to love. I've built very high walls. Sadly, I don't think that's going to change anytime soon. Actually, I think it's a good thing. I know the man that will truly want to be with me and love me unconditionally will climb as high as he has to. He will not give up and when that happens he will forever have my heart. He will be my one true love. My king..my real king. For now, focus everything back on me. I am the love of my life.

God is good. He definitely loves me. I will say, I haven't been behaving how he would like to me. I am working on it. Day by day. He knows my heart.

Right now,  I have 4 buyers I'm working with and have 3 listings, 1 is closing in the next week or so.
I am keeping very busy but still enjoy my time off. I have many goals this year for real estate and really plan to accomplish them with whatever it takes. I need more money though, especially with all these trips I plan on taking this year!!

My poor Bo, is in pain again. It upsets my heart so much! I wish I could take the pain away. Praying for betters day because I will serious cry my eyes out the day I have to say goodbye to him :(

I have to drive home now, my father is living with me for a couple of weeks as he recovers.
I will try to make more time to blog..oh and my poerty..oh my gosh... I have so much inside of me. I need to get out.

HAPPY 2016

I cannot believe it!!! This year wow...well its been ok so far.
Yesterday my dad had surgery on his neck to relieve the arthritis near his spinal cord. Hopefully this will help him recover and be back to normal 100%. God knows he needs it. Everything went well and I know things will get better for him. Other than that, my boyfriend has been in Colombia for the last couple of weeks. He returns on the 14th!! OMG I can't wait to see him!! I've felt like a piece of me is missing...awww...that was corny lol. His birthday was on the 8th of this month. We will make up for the late celebration when he returns.  I just miss him tons. He has become someone very special in my life.

New years celebration was fun and simple. I spent it with the fam at my sisters house. I am looking forward to this year. It's like a brand new beginning for me. Last year was tough man. Especially to my poor heart. It was shattered completely. But I am happy to say that it has been glued back together. Tho,I am being very protective of it too. It's gentle, gotta hold with care. ;)
Anyway, I will do a post of my yearly goals tomorrow.
That will be fun....

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.
