Hey y’all! Today I have something I’m excited to share with just you ladies! It’s something I don’t often hear many people talking about, and I can’t help but wonder why not!? It’s natural, it’s part of life, so let’s talk about it! The truth is, we’re not all the same! We come in all different shapes and sizes and there’s no such thing as one size fit’s all. That’s the beauty of being a woman! We spend countless hours shopping to find the best clothes and shoes for that perfect fit…

Current Fitness Goals
I’m at the final stretch of the 8-week training program I started in February at my local gym and the part I struggle with the most when it comes to fitness is right around the corner.

August Goals
I’m having a hard time believing it’s already August, but I’m okay with that because August means IT’S CLOSING MONTH!! Well, hopefully! Our scheduled closing date is August 31, so as long as the builders are still on schedule we should be good to go! Fingers crossed…
