Failure

Someone help me out, i am failing at going to the gym in the mornings.  I think it is because I am staying up and trying to get things done for the house but I havent had any luck this week.  Last week i went three times, so yay! 

I bought a lot of nail polish from my friends, so I have really pretty nails when I go out and coach debate.  Some of my debaters are doing well.  I know I am looking more professional because I am looking to show the kids that its all about being professional. 
I am still modeling for Cato, if you have Instagram, find them CatoSalinaKS
It is fun.  It lets me be myself and show that even us bigger women can have cute clothes! 

I am still doing my business, and if you are interested you should let me know!! :D  I need to get motivated to go to the gym though so any motivational techniques you have, please let me know!!

New Month New...Wait... NOV 1

I have been down this path before. New month new me...new month new look...etc.
I am trying very hard though! I couldn't get out of bed this morning so I need help with that.  I really let myself slide when I got my tendinopathy diagnosis.  I have physical therapy for it next week (Nov 6) but at the same time, I really don't want to go because it is super expensive and insurance doesn't cover very much of it.  :(  At the same time though, I know that it is a necessary evil to continue to have mobility in my wrist.

So in other news, I have gained a lot of followers in the social media world.  As a model for Cato, as a cosplayer, and as a distributor for Herbalife.
As a coach, I am 300 points away from my next level and I am so excited!!

I also have been doing well as the assistant coach in debate! the kids are enjoying my company and the coach and I are switching weekends.  Our home tournament is soon.  Like the 9th.  I am super excited for it!

Last night I took my kiddo trick or treating and I wanted to go off on a lady.  She wouldnt give him candy until he said trick or treat.  I explained to her that he has processing problems, and she went off on how he didnt have a blue pumpkin or a sticker saying he had autism.  Like lady, that is not the point of trick or treating.  bleh. it was so heartbreaking.  But another lady made up for it by letting him play with the science equipment as much as he wanted, which is good because he loves science so much.

If You are Still Reading this, Thank you

I have been struggling with whether or not I should even tell you guys this, but about two weeks ago I reconnected with a person that I should not have. 
Here is the run down.  We dated in high school, and a little bit after.  Then we dated a few years ago.  He broke up with me after a while and I for a weird reason, still loved him, like a lot.  I found him on a dating app and of course SWIPE RIGHT!! I still talk with his mother, so I told her about it, presenting it in a haha guess what just happened way.  She encouraged me to talk to him through text and gave me his number. 
Lets fast forward, to where I told him that it was me and he started telling me that I was the source of all his problems.  I needed to commit suicide and I needed to die.  Yup.  He went on and on for hours about how i was a pox on earth and we all would live better without me and how i was fat and ugly and unlovable.  It is important to note here i did not retaliate, I did not respond, I let him talk it out.  Then he threatened to kill me.  I called the police.  He was arrested.  He bailed out the next morning.
I can never eat at my favorite restaurant again because he is a manager there :(

Ok that being said, I made plans to go to homecoming at my college for three days.  But i had to cancel them because my parents didnt realize their convention was the same weekend.  No biggie.  I was sad but I can always go again next year.  That is how i got over that.  I took z to the  zoo, a friend came down and paid for it as a birthday gift for the both of us, and all he wanted to see were the ostriches!  We did look at other animals briefly but he wanted the ostriches. 
Z and I tie-dyed early in the morning so that by night he would be able to see the items before I put them in the wash.  It was fun.

I went out with some friends this weekend and DRAMA happened. I didnt drink because someone has to be the driver, but I regret dragging some better friends of mine into this mess.  I did discover that I do have serious feelings for one of my friends, but we talked about it late at night and decided it best to just be friends an let things happen naturally if they do.  I should mention that it has been 20 years since we have been friends. 

I have a debate tournament today so I am looking to show the kids how to dress appropriately and act accordingly.  The only thing I did not do was wear dress shoes, knowing that I would be doing a lot of walking around. 

I am reinventing myself!  I have my business that I am starting to actually get a hold on!  I am also getting more healthy!!  I let myself slide a lot since my wrist went out, but I am getting back in it!!  I love helping people. 

Stay beautiful friends!!

General update

alright yall! 
I applied and got the assistant debate coach position so i have been working with the kids on that.  We had our first meet last night and I feel like there were nerves and even though we were practicing and didnt really know what we were doing, the nerves dissipated by the end of the night and i had hyper kids on the way home. 

In one of the classes I am in, Intro to Theater, we are getting ready to preform monologues.  One kid has decided to do Juliet's Romeo.  I am excited because I love Romeo and Juliet so I am helping her do that. 

Biology is going well. 

Art class is going well.

Overall I feel like I am doing well with everything as far as work goes.  I am still struggling to get up in the morning and go to the gym. 

My love life is a mess yall.  I do not feel like I am doing so great in that area. 

I had someone tell me that I look really cute and out of the era all the time and it lifted me up because sometimes all you need is a little compliment to get you through the day.

Try and do good today. Compliment someone today. 

I think that I have carpal tunnel in my right wrist.  I have been wearing a brace for a few weeks, taking it off to breath once and a while but last night it was so stinky that I had to take it and wash it so we shall see how my day goes today without it. 

Dead

That is it.  I am 100 percent dead

Not really.  I am just really tired.  I spent a lot of time in bed this few weeks after being sick.  Head cold, allergies, and sinus infection.  i managed to sleep it off but then i got a cough that has been killing me and making my throat hurt.

I have not been having the best time sleeping lately and i know self care is important so i am trying to get myself up in the mornings to do reading or any other kind of self help that i need but sometimes i just want to sit in bed and stare at the wall.  i was there for thirty minutes today and couldnt drag myself out of bed.  it is harder and harder and i am not sure how much longer i can go without just taking time off.

People HI

I am still alive. 
I am in classes this year and loving them! I am already very happy with my kiddos in class!!

My son started Kindergarten and I am an emotional mess!  He is doing really well and comes home excited about his science class.

I am still modeling, I am still doing work outs and shakes. 
I am reading a lot more.  I am also listening to audio books. 

Lets get real.  I know that I am not where i want to be physically, so i am working on that.  Recently I have not been able to get out of bed in the mornings to get to work out and that is not my happy place.  I start off great, monday tuesday sometimes wednesday but by the week's end, i am dead.  I hope that by being honest with myself i can honestly say it is my diet, probably even my emotional state.  I have been doing a lot of people helping which i am good at but i havent taken time for me in a while so this is me trying to reconnect with myself.  Writing and reading have always been my escape so I need to remember to do that :D

Hope you are still around to listen to me!

Lets talk about things.

May 20
First of all, I have done a lot of working out!!!  I am down 23 pounds since January and I am feeling amazing in my body!! I wanted to feel amazing for the wedding that I was in, but I love love love the way I feel so I have been continuing it.

I am going to be real with you guys though.  I have depression.  I have anxiety.  I have a hard time focusing at times.  My depression I need to have a medication for, which I need to schedule appointments for.  I have such a hard time remembering to make the appointment, and then there is always the money thing.  Between the counseling and the medication appointments that will be 60 dollars.  Which can be used for gas or food.  In addition, the medication itself is only 6 dollars so hey i the long run its worth it.  I always feel better after my counselor and I talk though.  Like everything that I have been holding onto just phases away.
Because this is my space for my thoughts I have to say that I fell for someone.  What does this have to do with depression? Well let me explain.  I have a habit of giving things fully.  Giving my whole being into a relationship.  We were friends.  We spent a lot of time together and I was starting to fall for him and then when he told me that he wasnt wanting what i was and let me tell you that i was hurt, crushed, and frankly, angry.  Because i allowed someone to come into my life and be around me and i took time to learn things about him and open up to him. But it will be okay, i have taken him from all social media.

Keep following me on my personal facebook page as well as here!  I have started a cosplay page as well which you can find here.

June 11
How is it already half way through June!? 
I am still working out, I am still doing shakes and meals.  I am still me and alive.  I work a lot though.  Ask me what i am doing at midnight making this post though!  Go on, ask.  Okay since you were so polite about it.  I am transferring all my pictures from my laptop to Flash drives!!  It is taking SOOOO long!!  I did not realize I took THAT many pictures of my kid!!  Who let me do that!???
But as a mother that is something you do.  you take a lot of pictures to share with the world.  I am doing some modeling for the store, Cato.  If you have an instagram you can look for them @salinakscato  or something like that.  I love the way i feel when i put on clothes and walk around in them when they are sizes smaller than my normal!! 
I will probably post more later, but for now I just thought i would check in and let you guys know i AM still around.
