This is 33..



 I recently turned 33 last week. In honor of relaunching my blog and for new people that didn't follow me when I was regularly blogging, I figured I would share 33 random facts about me  We were really blessed with the boys having my birthday off so we spent the whole day with them hanging out. The next day Tony and I flew to New York. We spent the day together on Friday with my sister and then Saturday he had some work, so I spent the whole day hanging with my sister. She lives in NY and is finishing her last year of law school at NYU law.





Get to know me:

1. I am Jamaican. I was born there. I moved to the US when I was young but I still have family there and we have house there that we rent out

2. I have been married for 12 1/2 years.

3. We got married really young. I was 20 years old.

4. We have two boys Tony III (12) and Tayden (5).

5. I have two sisters Toni and Tiffani. One is a doctor in residency and the other is in her last year of law school. 

6. I am super competitive with almost everything I do.

7. I used to run track in college for the University of South Florida.

8. I have my bachelors in Biomedical Science.

9. And my masters in Medical Science.

10. My goal before everything was to be a doctor.

11. My favorite food is ackee and saltfish, callaloo, with dumpling.

12. I am a very loyal friend. If you are in my circle, I will do whatever I can to help you.

13. But I am definitely a quality over quantity type person with friendships.

14. I feel the most comfortable in black and white.

15. I am a Christian and so is our family.

16. I can be a perfectionist and that is something I have to work at daily.

17. I used to compete in fitness competitions in the bikini division.

18. I still struggle because of what competing did to my hormones but making strides daily.

19. Tony is truly my best friend. At night, when he is out of town, we will talk on the phone as if we are dating.

20. I write in my planner almost every day. I love to physically write everything down.

21. I am strict in my parenting style but I make sure my kids feel loved. I find that balance is important.

22. I rarely ever listen to music other than what is on the Message or Praise on Sirius xm so I am usually not hip on the current songs and neither are my kids.

23. I rarely ever get to watch TV but when I do its usually something on Netflix.

24. I love action shows and movies and anything murder or criminal.

25. The most common date night for Tony and I are the Cinebistro movies.

26. I spend most weekends watching my kids play sports.

27. I love traveling and would see the entire world if I could.

28. I can re-watch my favorite movies over and over.

29. One of our favorite shows to watch is American Greed on MSNBC. We watch old episodes on demand before bed if a new one isn't on.

30. I rarely ever wear heels anymore. I have plantar fasciitis from track and then competing made it worse so its not very comfortable and can actually can be quite painful for me to wear them.

31. I don't cry very often and if I do I am probably angry rather than sad.

32. I love to read but don't often find the time to read as much as I would want to. This year I set a goal to read one book a month for the whole year. I'll let you know how I do at the end of the year.

33. Tony and I  have a joint book coming out next year, so stay tuned!

Hope you enjoyed this and learned at least one thing new about me. I can't wait to learn more about you!
