Update!!

Hola Beautiful People!!

Haven't posted in a while. My laptop was down for some time, why I'm not sure. It just wouldn't come on for some reason and then out of nowhere Poof! it came on. It kinda sucks that I haven't updated lately. This summer I hoped to get more content out. This is sort of a diary to me. I have been doing a lot of fun stuff this summer. Definitely a summer to remember. Full of awesome trips, and concerts and family fun. I have captured most of it on Facebook and Instagram but not on the site domain that I bought. PLUS I bought another site from Go Daddy... smh. Silly girl just wasting money. Lol. I have a problem....
Now the summer is coming to an end (sad face)  fall is coming and its time to get back in the books! Whomp whomp. Classes start next week, Wednesday, and I have a full load. A job, Mom, Fiance, and full course load. Crazy, right!? Yes. I agree. And although I will be plenty busy I do hope to update my site often, at least on the weekends. I think it would be a great getaway from the never ending homework and do things I love. I'm still sewing from time to time. Made a few items even made a somethings on my vacay in West Virginia. It was so relaxing out there. I haven't been making smoothies as much but I'm sure to get back to it, I will need the energy. Lots of content is sure to come up and since I will have my laptop attached to me, a post will not be too far away. SOOO, hopefully it all works out.
Anyways this was just a quick update. I will be posting a few on pieces today and this week of the things I have been doing and working on.

Its a Beautiful Day

The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, and the wind? A bit windy but it was just great. People were out and about and smiling. Me and my 2 month old got out for awhile after we dropped his sister off to school. I went to see some family and then a few friends. I sat and had a little chat with them all. I got to see my granny, give her a little breakfast, and help her out around the house a bit. I hardly get to visit her but I was glad I did today. I even sat around her house and watch the Style channel. It was nice to indulge a little cable, ya know? I had a mission the whole day: to get a few dollars to make it through the week because a sista is flat broke... And although I wasn't able to borrow any money, my hubby got upset with me, my tank was low, and all I had was three dollars to my name... I still manged to have an awesome day. I'm smiling through it all. You know why? Because all that physical stuff really doesn't matter. And really that's saying a lot coming from me. Some of us give all that crap so much power over our lives. All that matters is that you're healthy and able to enjoy the day you're in. I'm sure most of this feeling comes from the fact Spring is here and the Sun gives you all these feel good emotions. The skin is happy, the mind is happy. I'm so glad to be into today.

Today was a very pretty day.

Facebook Rehab

Miss me? I know you guys did. Well I missed me-- I haven't updated on my blog in a long time. But I'm going to start again because I have officially broke up with Facebook. Yes, our relationship will be over by the end of today. I've let all my friends know.. I'm sure they won't miss me though. I don't update my status often. I just go around sharing natural hair photos and liking peoples pictures and videos (which seems to be the majority on my feed). Last night I seen a video that someone shared, going in I had no idea what I was about to see. But what I seen sent me into tears. I couldn't believe what I was looking at, though it wasn't the first time. Smh. People do not realize the mark that they are leaving out in the world. I will not be a part of such foolish acts. Anything I put out into the world will have some real thought behind it.
Now as for other social networking sites like Twitter and Instagram they're on the chopping block as well. I may not delete my Twitter as quickly (truthfully I'm addicted) I'm just going to remove A LOT of the people I'm following. Which is much easier since these are basically strangers. Facebook isn't that easy. So I will just delete myself.
So this is goodbye Facebook... I would say I'm going to miss you... but I won't. This should be a speedy recovery for me.

This is the status I left behind:

Like i stated before I'm going to shut my FB page down for a little while (if not forever). I'm just tired of looking at some of the hurtful stuff you people say and share on this site. The fights, the abuse, the hurt kids, the "bitches be like..." photos, all that nonsense. And there's just NO FILTER. It isn't entertaining to me anymore just a bunch of useless and senseless images and text. You people have no limits to the stuff you like and share with the world. You do realize these are the breadcrumbs you are leaving out in society?? Umm. Yeah Im a fault as well which is why Im starting with me. I have a blog and will start updating that more. Visit my page when you get a chance and stop [drop] a comment sometimes... 

Looking Back on 2012

Welp 2012 is coming to a close and 2013 is sprouting up. As the new year is showing its head I can't help but look back on the year. There was a lot of big changes that happened to me. For one I went in 2012 single for the first time in a long time. My boyfriend and I were always off and on, but the last time I was SURE we were done. But our unconditional love brought us back together again... as usual. This time he tried to make it official and he proposed! So for 2012 I was an engaged woman with the man I've been with for 5 years. He was in another state when he asked but that didn't matter. We were head over heels for each other. It was time to set our love in stone. When he came back we moved into a new place together. Not our first place together but it felt like it. A lot more space, 3 rooms, a basement. Nothing like our crumby apartment. It's a really nice place.

2012 was also a big birthday year. I turned 25! So I had to have a big party that I would remember for years. I had my party at a club in downtown Detroit. It was successful. The only thing was... I was pregnant. Yup. A few weeks prior I took a test and it was positive! So yeah it was my biggest birthday yet no drinking for me. It sucked a bit but I realize now somethings happen to you for a reason.

So for 2012, I turned 25, was engaged, new place in Detroit, and now a human incubator. Wow. My daughter started 1st grade and I started my semester as a junior. As the months went by I learned that I was pregnant with a baby boy! I was so excited. I was blessed to have my little girl now to have my little boy with my fiancé (our first together) that has always been there for our family. I guess there was a reason for that 3rd room after all. ^_^

 My year has been full of exciting new changes and I'm very happy. At first I wasn't. Big changes like those can really scare the crap out of you. Change period is hard. But as the months of 2012 are coming to a close I realize that change is good and everyone has to go through it. He wouldn't put more on me than I could handle. 2012 has proved to be my biggest and most memorable year yet. And I'm sure 2013 will be just as big. With the baby on the way a lot more will change. I haven't had to change diapers and feed a baby for over 4 years now. But those skills never really leave you. And Nathaniel will show me just how great of a mommy I can be--still.

I hope your year was full of excitement and love as was mines. Have a Happy New Year!!! -Sable

What to Wear When You're Going Nowhere

Check this post I found while surfing around. Please read...

Keiko Lynn: Be just who you are.

The necklace is cute I must say. And the pics. But the words of Keiko Lynn are so very true. I often find myself debating whether or not to "dress-up" on days when I'm not going anywhere special. But if this didnt just sum it all up in a nutshell.

You dont have to be going anywhere to do your hair, nails, makeup or anything. I think its a perfect way to relieve a little stress and have fun. I said the same thing before in a previous blog about nail polish. Its all about making yourself feel good. Of course you want other people to see and notice your hard work, but the first person you want to satisfy is yourself. You have to approve FIRST, everyone else is just to confirm what YOU already know. Throwing on some cute clothes when your just going to the market for a few things is perfectly okay. I see way to many females just walk outside in their PJs. I mean I guess this is okay when you REALLY need to go to the corner store real quick. But to be all Walmart with the clothes you slept in all night is just unaccpectable. Jogging/sweat pants at the least please?? Please share your thoughts and opinions.
