Update on my life

There are several things that I want to write about. This blog post may just turn into random ramblings by me lol anyways...

 

 I planned on starting beauty school this year because I became so heavily involved in the nail polish world that it became my WHOLE life. Even though I have 2 young children, I still found so much extra time to "do" my nails on a daily basis. I took part in nail art contests by: Tip Top Nails South Africa. I didn't win but oh well. It was a lot of fun to do and I improved on my artistic abilities since the contest was I believe 12 weeks long. Back to the topic of going to beauty school... I planned on starting this year blah blah and I found out that my boyfriend wants to buy a house by the end of next year so I decided that I want to be completely settled and comfortable where I live before embarking on that kind of adventure. So, I shall be going most likely next year after we move. I am kind of impatient to start because it has been a passion of mine for quite some time but I think my plan is what's best for me and my family. Plus, I have 3 step daughters on top of my 2 children so paying for child care while I go to school and their father works will be so extremely expensive.


On another topic, I started eating healthy, lost 11 lbs then stopped my diet but continued to lose another 3 lbs. So now I am down 14 lbs in the last 4 months. I feel smaller, I think I look smaller but my clothes don't fit much differently. Oh well. As long as I know I lost weight that's all that matters. I also quit smoking cigs in February. It was a long time coming and I definitely feel 10x better. I don't cough and hack all the time and I don't get sick as often. I am on the right track to living as healthy as I can. YAY
