Five on Friday

Let's round up this week, shall we? 

This week was one that flew by and I started it off with a facial at Sephora by a licensed Esthetician. My skin has felt AMAZING! I revamped my skin care routine to include more natural products that target my 'problems' such as acne and dark spots/hyper pigmentation. Should I do a blog post about my experience?

RAMADAN Mubarak! 🌙 It is my first Ramadan away from my family. Waking up on my own to eat, and breaking my fast on my own. I am extremely grateful for the family and friends I do have here in Dallas. I am using this month as a reset - and that has been my intention for a few months now. To focus on me, myself, and my faith. I want to be closer to my faith and to Allah SWT. I am starting to realize to count my blessings every day, no matter how big or small.


I earned a half day and some change from work, so I'm taking advantage of it, by heading home for the weekend. I can't wait to see my parents and sister bear. ❤️ As well as the rest of the fam-bam. I am super excited to spend time with my BFF Nikki, and get to check out her new home! 🏡


My thoughts and prayers are with the families in Santa Fe, and around the world.


I was in a two-day training this week, and someone told m that I was very sharp and way ahead of my peers. I am constantly told at work that I'm crushing it. I think it's time I at least try to be a bit easier on myself. I won at a contest at work, which means I get to sport this awesome trophy on my desk for the next week!

BTW - this was my idea and I will continue to take 100% credit for the Dundie Award idea and all of its awesomeness. Because, well The Office, duh.

I am learning to appreciate the small things that happen each and every day.
