My Theme Song! What's Yours?

Despite the full agenda, dirty dishes, piles of laundry, and bickering between the kids, "I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s JUST FINE" - Mary J. Blidge

Let it go……
Can’t let this thing called love get away from you
Feel free right now, going do what you want to do
Can’t let nobody take it away, from you, from me, from we
No time for moping around, are you kidding?
And no time for negative vibes, cause I’m winning
It’s been a long week, I put in my hardest
Gonna live my life, feels so good to get it right

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
No stress through the night, at a time in my life
Ain’t worried about if you feel it
Got my head on straight, I got my mind right
I aint gonna let you kill it
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Feels so good, when you’re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
Keep your head up high
In yourself, believe in you, believe in me
Having a really good time, I’m not complaining
And I’m a still wear a smile if it raining
I got to enjoy myself regardless
I appreciate life, I’m so glad I got mine

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
Aint worried about you and what you gonna do
I’m a lady so I must stay classy
Got to keep it hot, keep it together
If I want to get better
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

I aint gon’ let nothing get in my way
(I ain't gone let nobody bring me down, no, no, no)
No matter what nobody has to say
(No way, no way, no way)
I ain’t gon’ let nothing get in my way
No matter what nobody has to say

Feels so good, when you’re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
It’s a really good thing to say
That I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
No stress through the night, at a time in my life
Ain’t worried about if you feel it
Got my head on straight, I got my mind right
I ain’t gonna let you kill it
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Garage Sales, Who Knew?

This past weekend my cousin invited my family and I to participate in her 2 day garage sale that her community hosts annually. We were able to get rid of a lot of our junk and at the same time we earned $370. We also donated the items left over to the Salvation Army and received a tax deduction. Woo Hoo! I guess "Someone else's junk, truly is another person's treasure".

Here are some of the treasures that I came a cross.

Bombay Set = $ 0

9 Picture Frames = $ 0

2 CD Racks = $ 0

Not bad for free items, don't you think?

The Journey Begins....

Welcome to my world of beautiful chaos. This is my first attempt at writing a blog. I'm not much of a blogger, but I thought this would be a great way to view my progress as I become a "Domestic Goddess".

I am a working, mother of four monsters (ages 13, 11, 7 & 2). Like many other women out there, I am desperately trying to get my home, kids and myself in order. From work, school, and extra-curricular activities, there never seems to be a dull moment. Aside from work, home and kids, I am in a constant battle with my weight. I’ve been following the "WW Core Plan", in hopes to bring sexy back. Deep down inside, a healthy, thin woman is screaming to come out. Lol.
