Mind...could you please stop wondering...

Have you ever wonder about the "What if's"...I try very hard not to go there...but sometimes...I can't help it.

Things I am loving this Saturday

This Saturday I am loving...

My new I-Phone 5
It was time for a phone upgrade...I've had my Blackberry for a few years and my husband was insisting that it was time for me to get a new phone.  Well, I could not decide between the Samsung Galaxy and the I-Phone.  Friday evening, all of the sudden I tell my husband, well let's get the phone.  I decided for the I-Phone (mainly because of all the accessories).  I am loving my new phone!!!

This "Frontera" marinate is amazing

I discovered this "Frontera" marinating bags at WalMart a few weekends ago.  I am totally in love with this. They come in different flavors and its as simple as pouring the contents into the meat, cook and enjoy.

One last favorite of the day is this "Mainstays" Raspberry Parfait candle

This smells so good...they were cheap too.  I bought this one at WalMart last week and I just lit one up today...the smell is very soothing!

This are my "I am loving this Saturday" items today. 



Mi Isla...A quick introduction...

 This is Puerto Rico. A beautiful place to vacation with your family. Before I said "I DO" I made my husband promise me that he would buy me a plane ticket to go to Puerto Rico at least once a year. We have been together for 12 years and so far he has been able to keep his promise.

I love everything about the island but one thing that I feel is different from the United States is the beaches. The colors of the sky and the ocean are amazing...just breath-taking beautiful.



The picture above is the beach near my hometown Arecibo...I grew up going to this beach with family and later one with friends. Many memories took place in this area.



Just to end this quick introduction of my beautiful island...here is a beautiful Sunset in "El Muelle de Arecibo".

The importance of having friends

Friends...Sometimes people that play an important role in our lives...no longer are part of it. A friend, no matter what the circumstances are...will always STAY. Treasure your friends.

What is a friend? What is an acquaintance?

I think a friend is someone who will always be there for you even when you are at your worst. A friend is someone in who you condide things that are private or special for you knowing with certainty that that person would never judge you or repear the things you have said. An acquaintance for me is someone that you know, someone you interact on a daily basis or a lot, yet there is a feeling of unease, a something that would not let you move to the friendship level.

How often do friends see each other?

It truly does not even matter! A friend will always be a friend whether you spend time with that person or not. Years can go by and as soon as you see or hear that person you go back to the same level of comfort, the same trust, like you have just seen that person a day or so ago.

Why have a friend or friends?

Because when you have a friend, its a click, a magical thing just happens. A frienship is never planned or forced. Just like falling in love with your love...it's something magical...it just happens. Having friends is like air. You need air to breathe...some people like me need friends...to live.

THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY

Friday...that means that my on-call week at DSS is over...happy dance...No big plans for the weekend, pretty much want to catch up on some sleep.

Fridays are usually crazy at work, so I am hoping that things are going to go smoothly...drama free for this day.

Fridays are usually date night for my son and I. A while back my boy mentioned that he wanted to watch "A Haunting". So, we started watching the show together. Then I started noticing that, while the show was playing, I would go quickly to the kitchen to get a snack or something to drink and my boy will follow me. If I needed a bathroom break, my boy would pause the TV...also when the scenes will get s bit scary, he would hold on to my arm. Then I realized...he was actually scared!! So, I asked the boy...Why do you want to watch the show? His answer -"I don't know mama"....I LMAO...so we "watch" the show...and my adorable boy will hold on to my arm with his eyes closed as soon as the scary parts start showing. Needless to say I look forward spending that time with my kiddo. I mean he is already 11 years old, taller than me, and puberty is hitting him hard, so mama will cherish every single second the boy wants to spend with his mama.

Fridays are also days when I mentally plan things to do with the kids. I know I am due to spend some fun time with my girl. Usually movies and a trip to the bookstore is something that both of us enjoy. So maybe Saturday will be a movie night for mama and daughter.

With Jason, my husband, I might take him out Saturday for breakfast...just the two of us.

Well, now I have to get ready to go to work...I will come back later. Thanks for reading...feel free to leave comments...let me know what are your plans for the weekend and tell me...How was your Friday?

Stormy Thursday

Well Thursday is almost over...the Gamecocks -vs- UNC game has been delayed due to bad weather....the Gamecocks were kicking ass 27-10...Go Gamecocks.

Watched Big Brother and the blonde was sent home (thank God) she was booed by the live audience when she excited the house for all the racist comments she made through the show. Now I am only hoping that Amanda and McCrae do not win the HOH competition.

Being laying here trying to figure out he to attract more people to my Blog. I am a beginner and I am trying to make it happen...so please follow!

Also, today after work I met my children's teachers. Its so cute to see how embarrassed they are when mom and dad go to their schools....I love my kiddos.

Now it's time to shower and go to sleep...tomorrow another work day awaits...nite nite.
