January Fitness Challenge

Happy Sunday!! Currently about to finish some laundry and cleaning and get my son ready to go back to school tomorrow!! I hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend so far. I recently posted about making more commitments and sticking to them this year. One of those things is working out more consistently. Last month I tried doing the 30 day Ab and Squat challenge...again and failed miserably. I haven't been to the gym in I don't know how long and feel myself getting out of shape. I was going through some pictures and found this.


I purchased these fitness DVD's over a year or two ago and I only used them for about a week or so then stopped. Starting tomorrow I will be using these for the rest of the month and taking myself to the gym on my days off. I know it's going to hard and I'll want to give up but I need to just remind myself that I made this commitment and I want to be in better shape. I will give weekly updates on my progress and I encourage some of you that want to get back in shape or have been slacking on getting back to the gym to take this challenge with me. You don't have to run out and get these DVD's but just doing something like walking everyday or going to the gym or fitness class weekly. Let me know if want to join in and we can encourage each other. Wish me luck cause I'm going to need it lol!!

I think I'm the only person that hasn't taken their Christmas tree down yet lol! I'll get to it this week.

It's officially my birthday month and I'm excited!! Thinking of getting another tattoo soon.

    Good luck girl! I work out 3-4x a week and can tell you that you NEED to make it a routine thing or it just won't happen. I hate working out but I KNOW that I work out Tues, Thurs, Sat, and Sunday so having a set routine def makes it easier.

      Thanks Tanya. That's good to have a set schedule for working out. I'm always all over the place but I'll have to try that.

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post  here.  I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over ...
