I have designed this blog with us in mind. The purpose of my blog is to give us an outlet to discuss the joys and frustrations of being single or married. This blog is our forum to express ourselves and hopefully realize that we are not alone in our personal experiences. I hope that you use this blog to free yourself of all the things that you are holding on to or that are holding you back in life. I look forward to hearing your experiences as we learn from one another how to handle situations that may arise in life.
Warmest Regards,
Lady Tee

CONTROL!
Are you controlling your weight or is it controlling you?
On January 1, 2011 the majority of us probably made the resolution to lose weight. If not at the beginning of this year, I assume at one point in our life. For me, it has not only been at the start of the new year, but at various times throughout the year. I make these hopeful, going to do it, idle promises to myself about losing weight, but I never seem to completely follow through and/or make good on my intentions. I exercised and ate right for a solid month in which I lost a few pounds. Excited by my weight loss;I begin to THINK that I have eveythinging under control.Then slowly, I start slipping back into my old habits. I began to nibble on this, take a slither of that, and a bit or two of this and before you know it, the pounds I lost have now been replaced. So, how can we take control and maintain this aspect of our life when most of us have such busy schedules?
Well, I vow today that instead of given myself reasons of why I can't, my first step is to give myself reasons of why I can lose weight. What steps are you going to make towards a healthier life-style? Share your tips for maintaining a healthy life-style as well as pass experiences with weight struggle. Check out the links that I have provided about weight loss.
When you are in a relationship, do you feel that it is important to have a life outside of the relationship? I ask you all this question because recently I was invited out to a social event with my best friend and her sister. She has been married for 8 years and I am coming up on my 11th year of marriage. I was really excited to go, but I felt bad about going and leaving my husband and two girls at home. I can count on one hand how many times I had a girl's night out within my years of marriage. Yet, when the opportunity comes around again, I felt like I had to find a way to ease the topic of me going out with my husband.Why should it be a big deal? Why is it difficult for us to take time out for ourselves outside of work and home to have an appropriate social life with friends?
