Secrets Wild Orchid Preferred Side Review

I have been back from the beautiful island of Jamaica for 2 weeks now. I must say that I had the best time! I stayed for seven days. We arrived in Jamaica around 9:21 am. It was no one in the line for customs at all so I could have saved on the Mobay arrival. I'm not complaining though I love a nice drink while I wait for transportation to the hotel. We got to the hotel and walked over to the Preferred side. Check in was smooth. Our room was not ready and we were told it wouldn't be for a few hours. No problem we went right over to breakfast and then to the gentleman in the red vest and booked a short trip to the Hipstrip. We took care of shopping and got it out of the way. Shout out to Brian! He drove us to Mystic Mountain and was really nice! Shoutout to Hopeton once again although I only saw him once this time he always remembers me and says hello. Let's get on to the preferred side. I am sold! Haha. I love it there! Our room 1411 had the best view. I got to see the amaz...

F*CK Drama! I Aint Got Time For It!!

What's up everyone? Okay so I am watching Love and Hip Hop Atlanta and this show is so freaking messy. It's so much drama and the situations are so f*cked up. Baby mama drama, cheating and lying. I don't know if some of it's just for television or what, but as I watch this it makes me so freaking glad that I don't have to deal with this mess.       When I look back at my last relationship it is taking everything in me not to stop what I'm doing and start shouting! I thank God and I am so glad I don't have to deal with that anymore. If I would have stayed in that bull my life would be miserable.        When it comes to drama I try to stay as far away from it as possible. I shut down, I cut the person off, you won't hear from me. The closest I like to get to drama is watching it on television and that's it. Drama just caused me stress, unhappiness and it started messing with my sanity and health. It had me snapping on people that didn't deserve i...

Secrets Wild Orchid

I stayed on this side of the resort March 18-22nd. I usually stay on the St. James side. This was my first time at WIld Orchid. I never thought I'd say this but I like wild Orchid better! Although I didn't mind the walk from St.James to the restaurants,being closer to everything was a lot more convenient. Everyone keeps saying that Wild Orchid was louder but every time I have been St.James has always been louder well poolside that is. Check in was very smooth. I don't remember the name of the ladies that checked us in but they were nice. Our room wasn't quite ready so we went and grabbed lunch at the World Cafe and when we came back our room was ready for us. Did I mention I love Caulette Mornan? No? Okay well let me tell you how much! So about a month before our stay I sent her an email about room preferences. I got a quick response from her saying she would make a note of that. So when we got to our room WOW is all I can say. We had the best view ever!...

Movies I Can't Watch!

Hey everyone! It has been a while since my last post. My goal this year is to be a bit more active on my blog. I wanted to talk about movies that I can no longer watch. Some of them I used to watch all the time and a couple of them are a little more recent. So here we go! Okay so some of you know that I lost my husband almost six years ago. It will be six years this October. Okay so after the tragedy that changed my life the two movies that I loved were Selena and Ghost, (You know with Patrick Swayze?) No I don't dislike or hate this movies, they are really good movies and I loooove them. However I hate the endings. I watched these movies all the time! Sometimes once a day, but once that happened I quit watching them. If I do watch Selena I will turn it off before the end. I avoid any kind of sad movies because it brings back all of those painful memories and also leaves me feeling some type of way. So long after the movie is over I will be in the saddest mood. I won't even...

#DearMe

Hey everyone! It's been a while! I hope everyone is doing well. Okay so I have been seeing the #Dearme videos going around on YouTube and thought I should do one. It was all fun and games until I got to the emotional subjects. Whoo lawd! It has me feeling some type of way. I gave myself younger self advice that was so so true, but I did not think that it would made me feel like this. I don't know who came up with the video Idea but it is really good. That's it for this post. Until the next one!

I need Warmth!

Oh boy. So have have got in my feelings and am really missing Jamaica. I went to 54th Street Bar and Grill today for lunch. I ordered a Bahama Mama. It was delicious! Every ingredient was added just right, but most importantly it reminded me of Jamaica. They have the best rum and the best drinks I have ever tasted. I inserted pictures to give all a feel who have never been. Where I am now it is sooooo cold. How can I not think about going somewhere tropical? I miss the beach, the warm sun, the Caribbean Sea. Days like this it would be perfect to be laid out on the beach taking a nap. When I go to Jamaica I always stay at Secrets St. James in Montego Bay.   I also miss the food and the people! I always feel like royalty when I am there. Whenever you walk past someone they always greet you with a "Hello". Don't get me started on the Sunsets. The sunsets are so breathtaking!  I guess I will just have to wait....

Welcome 2015!

Happy New Year everyone! I am blessed to once again see another year! I am beginning another year with love and happiness. I remember how unhappy I used to be a few years ago. I remember when I used to sit around and cry. I am glad I don't have to go through that again. I don't have to hurt because of this person. I made it through another year with the pain he brought me, without the hurt he brought me, and the tears. So I would just like to say that as I look back and continue to move forward, I can do it knowing you are way behind me. Far in the past. I don't have to sit up in the middle of the night and continue to wonder where you are or what you are doing.I don't have to be degraded, disrespected or called out of my name.I don't have to hold my tongue for fear of being slapped. I can be happy. I can be me. I can be free!    I would like to thank you though, because without you I wouldn't be where I am now. STRONGER. I wouldn't have rekindled a love ...
