so, as I said last time I would embark on a weight Loss Journey.<br />
am on the third week of working out and resetting my eating habits.<br />
so far so good, am still struggling with the workouts but i will get there.<br />
the nutrition part is also a bit of an adjustment but i´ve been able to control the cravings pretty good.!<br />
<br />
Now am more conscious of what i eat and why, its HARD i tell you but with God nothing is impossible.<br />
<br />
This time am determined to do it, and do it right.<br />
<br />
Here´s to finishing the third week strong!!!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03133045943568685627noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2786065523972771335.post-68238363629765897532017-07-28T17:29:00.001+01:002017-07-28T17:29:41.474+01:00A newer new (Weight ) Beggining...<div class="MsoNormal">
So last year, or the year before I cant remember, I stumbled
upon these workouts by a company called <a href="http://www.beachbody.com/" target="_blank">Beachbody</a>.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I must say they ave changed my life and the way I look at
working out.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The first workout I did was by the trainer called Autumn
Calabrese and I must say she’s awesome! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So I did her workouts and tried others by other <a href="http://www.beachbody.com/" target="_blank">Beachbody</a>
trainers too and did lose weight; ( I started
on 85 kgs and lost 4 kgs ) but although the workouts work, I wasn’t diligent enough
with my food or workout regularity so I slipped into old habits and Bam! When I
realized I was weighing 89 kilos! (196.6 lbs)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So I’ve been gathering enough courage and motivation to
start working out again; and I decided that will start again on Monday (what
better day right? Lol)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This time I decided to make my own schedule and stick to it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The schedule is:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
3 rounds of 21 day fix (starting July 31<sup>st</sup> and
ending October 1<sup>st</sup> my birthday!!!!)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The 60 days of Insanity!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s the first time I’ll be doing insanity so am a little
scared but so ready for it!!!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This time I have to be true to myself and commit to it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It will be so so hard but I know I can do it And I WILL do
it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So here goes the beginning of my lifeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!<o:p></o:p></div>

Hello Dear Besotted readers....<br />

It seems all I do here is apologize for being absent... yeah I ignore this
blog so much, so this time I won’t make any promises ill just do my best.<br />
<br />
I’ve got news:<br />
<br />
AM GONNA BE A MOM OF TWO!!!!<br />
<br />
Yes, knocked up again and I got to say I am LOVING IT!!!<br />
<br />
Skipping the first trimester where I just wanted to kick everyone and felt
sick all the time, am glad I survived it! lol<br />
<br />
Now am on second trimester and it is awesome!!! the glow, the weight loss (oh
Yeah!!!) the cute tummy and the increased sex drive!!!! (bonus! bonus! bonus!!)<br />
<br />
Am waiting to start feeling baby kick but I can feel soft movements already
and although it’s the second time I still feel just as emotional.<br />
<br />
Anyways... this is what has been happening.<br />
<br />
Speak to you soon!!<br />
<br />
Besotted Mommy<br />

Oh I should also mention am overweight (wow it hurts to even write that).<br />
<br />
…And yes am well aware of it… I could give you all kinds of excuses known to man as to why am overweight but the truth is, I ate way too much after I gave birth thinking that I had to “because I was breastfeeding” (my number 1 excuse).<br />
The kilos were piling as I happily munched on everything in my sight (am feeding a human being I have a right to eat anything right? WRONG!!)<br />
<br />
During my pregnancy I only gained 5 kilos (about 10lbs) but after that I ballooned so quickly I didn’t know what hit me! Right now am 20kilos (40lbs) overweight and I decided to lose it by reducing the quantities of my food, cut down on junk and soda and exercising for an hour and a half Mon-Fri. (I don’t really like diets because after the weight is off, you go back to your “normal” foods and you can gain the weight back quickly, so I keep eating what I normally eat (of course no junk) but I drastically cut my portions)<br />
It has been only 2 weeks, I’ve lost a kilo (2 lbs) and it hasn’t been easy adjusting my diet, but I’ve been feeling great and think that I already look better.<br />
<br />
But this post isn’t about my weight struggles… It’s about the people that surround me, the people in Society… yes it’s my fault I gained weight but it’s also my responsibility to lose it.<br />
So why do people feel like it’s their duty to come over and ask me if I don’t think I should lose some weight?<br />
Some of the questions and commentaries I get asked/told are:<br />
- Don’t you think you should lose some weight?<br />
- Chica you look too fat!<br />
- Do you really want to eat that?<br />
- What you eating is wrong<br />
- Pizza? Why do you want pizza?(I eat it once a month only if that)<br />
- You really should think about dieting<br />
- What happened to you? You are so big?<br />
- What you waiting for to lose weight?<br />
And lots more along those lines….<br />
<br />
I wonder if people know how the other side feels when they say that. I wonder if they bite their tongues afterwards or congratulate themselves for “telling it like it is” according to them?<br />
I wonder if they ask themselves is this person trying to lose weight. Is she already exercising?<br />
I am aware of my weight gain and I know I should lose weight and for that, I have been working so hard, but all I hear is people calling me FAT… am so discouraged but I know am not doing it for them, it’s for me and my own good.<br />
I never retort to these comments because I don’t need to make them feel bad either whether they did it on purpose or not, but that they hurt, yes they do.<br />
<br />
So if you are reading this and you’ve made an “innocent “ remark like this to me or someone else, I forgive you and I ask that next time <strike>you better hope there isn’t a next time because I will not be nice at all</strike> you be more considerate.<br />
<br />
Anyways, done with my pity party… I didn’t go to the gym yesterday and today because of an abscess, but I’ll be back tomorrow, after all I have a self-imposed deadline, and that is to be yummy by the time I turn 30, so whatever that means by then (weight, centimetres lost, more fit, healthier) I will be happy by 30.<br />
<br />
Have an awesome day y’all<br />

(Eggplant Juice)Today I wanna talk about a subject dear dear to my heart, <strike>and my hips, my waist, my back and other areas</strike>…<br />
<br />
Weight!!!<br />
<br />
So, during my pregnancy I only gained 5kgs (about 10lbs) but after that I made friends with bread, pasta, juices, fried, and anything edible!<br />
<br />
We became best friends! So much so that they called me in the middle of the night and I gladly answered! You could find me in the middle of the night eating while breastfeeding!!<br />
<br />
Well its one year later, and they decided that they love me so much they will lodge themselves in my hips and other areas, and I promise you my hips DON’T LIE!!!<br />
<br />
So, I decided to Join Gym and start slowly to burn my friends away (sorry guys hehehe)<br />
But now, am getting antsy with the slow weight loss so I decided to try the Eggplant with lemon water! I hear it burns calories fast, slims your belly (I need to see my feet again lol) and you lose weight!<br />
<br />
So for this week I’ll try it, monitor my progress and next week I’ll let you know the results!<br />
They told me I wash and cut into cubes one Eggplant put it in a litre of water, let it sleep overnight, then in the morning I add a squeezed lemon into the water.<br />
<br />
Drink one cup just after I wake up before eating anything, and the rest I drink during the Day.<br />
Am so excited I can’t wait to try it!!<br />
<br />
I’ll let you know if I lose anything coz I really need to and I can’t do any drastic diets because am still breastfeeding so I’ll go slow.<br />
<br />
Come back next week and find out how I did!<br />
<br />
Lots of Love<br />

Yesterday we were invited to a birthday party and the house we went to wasn’t cemented so the whole yard was sand… <br />
My boy has.never.played.in.sand. <br />
Never. <br />
So, after the initial shyness, Bubba decided to venture to play with the other children, he was trotting along just fine when suddenly wham! <br />
He fell on his bum! Being the helicopter mum <strike>(try and judge me haha)</strike> that I am I wanted to go and pick him up when suddenly I see my boy picking up a fistful of sand and trying to analyze it closer to see what it was, the sand started falling through his fingers! I’ve never seen him so inquisitive!! He was soooooo awed at this “thing” that wouldn’t stay still in his hands yet it felt so weird!!! <br />
<br />
He just sat there picking up sand and seeing it falling through his fingers… then he just sat there with his hands in the sand with this content look on his face <strike>you know the look you get when you peeing yourself in the shower? Lol</strike> like he just found gold. <br />
<br />
I felt so happy and sad at the same time. Happy that my boy was so happy with playing with something so simple such as sand and yet being so joyfully delighted, and sad as to why it took me so long to just let him play in the sand and be a child. <br />
<br />
Its simple things that make my heart full. <br />
<br />
I Thank the Lord so much for giving us this pleasure. <br />
<br />
When I take him to the beach ill attach some pictures. <br />
<br />
<br />
Have a blessed day Y’all. <br />

Being a wife and a mother is not easy! I am definitely an imperfect mom and I love this bible study for it!!! So with being a wife, mom and working full time I don’t have much time to relax and refill, but when I do I have a couple of minutes to myself I love to: <br />
1.Daydream… I love dreaming about the places I wanna go (which often involve a beach or sitting under a tree) <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g1asWbp7kEE/U8-OcbDBpYI/AAAAAAAAAMI/dpme1lm6KtU/s1600/Beach.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" closure_lm_514531="null" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g1asWbp7kEE/U8-OcbDBpYI/AAAAAAAAAMI/dpme1lm6KtU/s1600/Beach.jpg" height="213" width="320" yua="true" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4dGbiw_9dHU/U8-OaF8H9TI/AAAAAAAAAL0/DgdWZ24dXpo/s1600/Tree.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" closure_lm_514531="null" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4dGbiw_9dHU/U8-OaF8H9TI/AAAAAAAAAL0/DgdWZ24dXpo/s1600/Tree.jpg" yua="true" /></a></div>
2. I Loooooooooove reading It’s one of my guilty pleasures and I read any and everything! Even random pamphlets when am standing on a queue or in a doctor’s office, you get the gist. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GPNTmaJn_Xw/U8-ObBA_PnI/AAAAAAAAAMA/pGtIdIZoVxw/s1600/woman-reading.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" closure_lm_514531="null" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GPNTmaJn_Xw/U8-ObBA_PnI/AAAAAAAAAMA/pGtIdIZoVxw/s1600/woman-reading.jpg" height="236" width="320" yua="true" /></a></div>
Pleasure number 3 is movies… I Love either staying home or going to the movies… I just relax and enjoy not having to stress about anything else.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ze10Lxr8eWo/U8-Oan9H4CI/AAAAAAAAAL4/QX2evNxH6QE/s1600/watching-movies.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" closure_lm_514531="null" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ze10Lxr8eWo/U8-Oan9H4CI/AAAAAAAAAL4/QX2evNxH6QE/s1600/watching-movies.jpg" yua="true" /></a></div>
Of course these are not in any order but one thing that relaxes me and brings me Joy is playing with my bundle of Joy!!! Seeing him squeal with delight when we are playing is so refreshing and assures me that am doing ok as a mom even if no one recognises it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-C6UmTlp8ygU/U8-ONQfw-GI/AAAAAAAAALg/ZetJ1PDXl5U/s1600/baby+todler.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" closure_lm_514531="null" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-C6UmTlp8ygU/U8-ONQfw-GI/AAAAAAAAALg/ZetJ1PDXl5U/s1600/baby+todler.jpg" height="212" width="320" yua="true" /></a></div>
My greatest source of relaxation and peace though, is reading my bible and pray.. Do you know how you feel when you are just fresh out of the shower? Yeah that’s how I feel when I pray and read my bible, and nothing relaxes me and makes my day go better than when I’ve started it with a prayer.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1_whdxBX3v8/U8-OZegQvvI/AAAAAAAAALo/UkapgVNOs28/s1600/Coffee+and+Bible.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" closure_lm_514531="null" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1_whdxBX3v8/U8-OZegQvvI/AAAAAAAAALo/UkapgVNOs28/s1600/Coffee+and+Bible.jpg" height="240" width="320" yua="true" /></a></div>
So these are the things I do to relax and refill. <br />
<br />

Today I wanna talk technology! More specifically phones!! Hehehe I am a phone junkie; I love androids, iPhone whatever shiny phone I can find (can you notice I don’t know much I just like shiny? Hahaha)<br />
<br />
I’ve had the iPhone 3 g, iPhone 3Gs, my current is a Nokia Lumia 720 (not really current since it fell into the toilet and now the screen won’t show), actually my current is an Alcatel old tiny phone which my boy loves to throw in the floor so it can break to pieces which he then loves to put back lol. Anyways now I want a new phone and am undecided between the Samsung Galaxy 5 and the Sony Xperia Z2! They are both awesome but too big! <br />
<br />
But I held the Galaxy today and it ain’t too shabby!!! But am still undecided. All sites I go to they say it’s almost the same thing but the Galaxy always wins by a tiny margin!!! But I like the Xperia because it has more colour variety (see my priority here? Hahahah) Am a person that’s always stuck to her phone, playing games, Facebook, internet, I basically like to live out of my phone. So which one do you guys think is better? Have a great day! <br />

I mean if there was ever any senseless killing this goes right at the top! Am not writing this from the political point of view, am not interested in that not even one bit, am more worried, sad, shocked and plain outraged at the massive loss of life! I mean how someone can be so callous as to shoot a plane down just because it might be from the enemy or because “they are flying in our sky?” I really pray that the Lord has mercy on the people who did this because my mind cannot even begin to grasp the concept of forgiving hem and am not even from there. Am praying for the families who are left behind with no answers, no comfort, no more hellos to say, and oh my gosh can you imagine how scared those 100 children were? I just cannot digest this! Lord, today I pray for the families of those who perished on the plane crash, I pray for comfort for them, for peace and for them to be able to forgive. Walk with them, protect their hearts, minds and sanity because this sure is not easy but nothing is impossible with You so I ask that you will carry them through these difficult times. All this I ask in the name of you Son Jesus Amen Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03133045943568685627noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2786065523972771335.post-48362191112909719872014-07-17T06:15:00.001+01:002014-07-17T06:15:13.540+01:00This mommy life…I love my job. I really do, but living in a city like Luanda where traffic is so bad you have to leave your house at 5 in the morning so you can avoid it, it’s just getting to be too much.
My heart breaks a little every time I have to leave my munchkin. I praise the Lord that he’s asleep when I leave so there’s no crying otherwise I don’t know if I could take it!!
Anyways now that am done with my pity party... Today am so tired I don’t even know what to write about, but since I want to be more consistent with the blog, ill be writing even if it’s a sentence a day..
Oh, now that am a mommy be ready to hear a lot about my munchkin and all the amazing feats he accomplishes every day! That boy does not cease to amaze me!
Now that he’s mastered the art of walking, we are moving onto talking! Oh this is fun!
Have a blessed day.

How are you? am so still in shock! I just found out about you and am all kinds of emotional... But most of all am so thankful for the gift God has given us: you. Am not sure where to start thinking because it's still a bit unreal and amazing at the same time. <br />
I mean I still think of myself as a little girl and to think that I have you inside of me is just too much for my little brain to understand.<br />
I can't stop thinking about you ( and I just found out about you 3 hours ago) thinking what u doing, what you like, are you gonna look like your dad or me?<br />
What are going to call you? Are you a boy or a girl? Are you ok in there? Are you warm? Too many things!!!hahaha<br />
But of all the things that are going through my mind know this: you are already so so so loved and so expected, am already thinking how am I going to decorate your room and your grandmommies are so over the moon about you!!! I love pink and if you are a girl I hope you love pink too (it's ok if you don't) but to celebrate you I painted my nails pink. Looks red but it's pink. <br />
I can't wait to meet you already. <br />
So your auntie Marlene and your aunties Chipo and Ntshenge(youll meet them when u arrive) kept making fun of me yesterday telling me that u was pregnant, I denied with all I have and just had fun imagining you and what presents they were gonna give you. Today out of a dare your aunt Marlene and I decided to buy a pregnancy test and take it but unfortunately I didn't have to pee so we left the test fe tomorrow. But when I got home I decided to buy one just for fun for me and your dad, what was my surprise when I saw those double lines!!!!! I smiled, I cried (of joy and happiness) I jumped, I sat in your dads lap and cried of joy some more! Your dad was smiling like the car who got the cream and his eyes were shining white pride ( I could see it). Little baby know that you are loved and cherished.<br />
<br />
I love you to eternity. <br />
Mommy<br />
Ps that a picture of me of the day I found out about you. <br />

I just love the feeling i get when i get up, its like new beginnings, a new day, new chance, new opportunity for whatever! so although Garfield would be throwing his lasagna at me for saying that, i really do love Mondays for the opportunity it brings to me to be:<br />
Extra loving to my husband<br />
Nicer to people<br />
Bless others<br />
Praise and thank God for everything... and for that, <i>and just for that</i>, am so thankful for monday.<br />

then I’ll get Into the bandwagon too! (hey I want it that when the next date
comes around, my kids <s>because I probably will be dead by then</s> see
that their momma was alive and made her mark when the previous 11.11.11
happened!<br />
Anyway so what does it mean? I only know that it’s a date that happens only once in a Century, I probably won’t be alive to see the next one, and that it is a lucky date! Oh
well...<br />
<br />
Not only that it’s the ANGOLAN INDEPENDENCE
DAY!!!<br />
<br />
Anyways it was a fun date 11.11.11 at 11pm 11min and 11 secs (you gotta
admit it was pretty cool) but as the first minutes of the day rolled in I was
rudely awakened by Fireworks so loud I thought there was a war starting on Independence
day, threw myself under the bed (you would too!!) and stayed there till I <s>peed
my pants, said all my prayed and almost cried like a baby</s> called my friend
who Informed me It was "just" fireworks!! All because it’s a public holiday
and Independence day!!! whoopteedooo for Angola!!<br />
<br />
Keeping on, Public holiday or not, I had to go to work for half a day then it
was blissful free afternoon (am just gonna be happy about the free afternoon so
I don’t get mad about them stealing my full day) <br />
So with a free afternoon (something that doesn’t happen often) I was Indecisive
on what to do!!!<br />

I mean it was a fun day, half day work; afternoon in the beach with my girlfriend had so much fun, laughed so hard and played in the sand like a little girl again!!<br />
Ok, I had fun, I loved every minute, every crazy picture we took, every wave we tried to run away from (unsuccessfully).<br />
<br />
So why not a good day you ask? Because as much fun as I was having, there was one constant thought in my mind: I miss my Fiancée!!<br />
J (won’t disclose his name as he is shy...) is so very far away, on another continent, yeah a phone call away, a Skype away but not a touch away... I miss him, his voice, his kisses, and his touch I just miss having him by my side.... <br />
I walk out I wish he were here, I go to the beach and I wonder whether he would like it there, I laugh and I wonder whether he would find it funny what the same thing, I sleep, I wake up, I go to work thinking about him, dreaming about him, wishing him next to me.<br />
<br />
I.JUST.WANT.HIM<br />
<br />
We are getting married next year and boy you have no idea how I want this year to end already!!!<br />
Baby when u read this, know this too: I miss you every second of every hour of every day!! Corny i know but true too!!!<br />
Anyways, didn’t mean to bum you out but as I sit here on my bed after the funnest day at the beach I’ve had in a while and the only thing I can think about is I wish he were here then I know one thing: I’ve got it bad for him.<br />
<br />
And I don’t mind it one bit!!!<br />
<br />
Have a nice Wednesday everybody.<br />
Lots of love from me.<br />
The Princess!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Solidão ...<br />
<br />
Hoje não é um bom dia .... Quero dizer, foi um dia divertido, meio dia de trabalho; tarde na praia com a minha amiga me diverti muito, ri tanto e jogamos na areia como uma criancas de novo!<br />
Ok, eu me diverti, eu adorei cada minuto, cada foto louca tiramos, cada onda que tentamos fugir (sem sucesso).<br />
Então porque não foi um bom dia você pergunta? Porque tanta diversao que eu estava tendo, havia um pensamento constante em minha mente: Estou com Saudades do meu Noivo!<br />
J (não divulgo seu nome porque ele é tímido ...) esta muito distante,noutro continente, sim um telefonema de distância, uma Skype, mas não uma distância que o posso tocar ... Eu sinto falta dele, da sua voz, dos seus beijos e seu toque Eu sinto falta dele ao meu lado ....<br />
Eu rio e me pergunto se ele iria achar a mesma coisa engracada, eu durmo, eu acordo, vou trabalhar pensando nele, sonhando com ele, desejando-lhe ao meu lado.<br />
I.JUST.WANT.HIM<br />
Nós vamos nos casar no ano que vem e você não tem idéia como eu quero este ano para acabar já!<br />
Meu amor quando leres este post quero que saibas: eu sinto sua falta a cada segundo de cada hora de cada dia! Corny eu sei, mas é a mais pura verdade!<br />
Pra o leitor,espero que nao o deprimi, mas sentada aqui na minha cama depois do mais divertido dia na praia que eu tive há algum tempo a única coisa que consigo pensar é que eu gostaria que ele estivesse aqui, então eu sei um coisa: Ele e o meu tudo!!.<br />
E eu não me importo nem um pouco!<br />
<br />
Teham uma quarta-feira agradável.<br />
Muito amor de mim.<br />

<br />
I am from Angola Born in Huambo but I live in Luanda, the only language i grew up speaking was Portuguese, I went to South Africa when I was 17 years old, I became of age there, I started to know myself there, I learned how to express myself there and I learn how to speak English there. After spending 8 years in Cape Town being around English speaking people all the time and doing all my readings and TV watching in English I found myself only thinking in English! <br />
<br />
I could have a normal conversation in Portuguese but it was never without the odd English word thrown in much to the dismay of my non speaking family because I wouldn’t even realise I was throwing English words in until they asked me “what?”<br />
Well, that wasn’t really a problem, (<strike>who am I kidding I still do it LOL but not so much</strike>) until I decided to start this blog, well I was in South Africa and I thought my readers would be only English speaking readers, but then I came Home and boy did I get a wakeup call!!! I mean I wanted to express myself and involve my family and colleagues in my journey, but some of them didn’t understand what I was saying thus couldn’t read the blog but I didn’t want to write in Portuguese only because I also didn’t want to alienate my English speaking friends! Talk about a double life LOL!<br />
<br />
Me being the proactive person I am decided to create another blog (www.minhavidaemluanda.wordpress.com) boy it was not a good idea! Not that the blog wasn’t good or anything, but if I can hardly keep up one blog how in the world am I going to keep two? Oh boy...<br />
<br />
Anyway, after much consideration and thinking, I decided to Delete my Portuguese blog and keep my English Blog BUT I will write in Both Languages on one blog!!<br />
<br />
Basically this is a BEAR WITH ME post because from now on it will be in both languages... maybe later, i will be able to see whether my readers are more fluent in English or Portuguese and stick to one language but for now i will live my double life right here!!<br />
<br />
Have a blessed Sunday y’ all and I promise to post more often!!!<br />
<br />
Much Love and Peace<br />

But no i havent forgot about you... am well, working my mind off, hey why hasnt anybody come up with a formula to balace relationships, family, friends and work? oh my word am going crazy wih these dinamics!! Just when u think u have it all under control, cracks start showing up like a bad construction site i mean WTH? gimme a break!<br />
