AWESOME WEEKEND!

So this past weekend was the absolute BEST weekend I'd had in FOREVER!!! I've not been out with old friends in quite a while, especially not since losing my 50 lbs. Saturday, I enjoyed time at the 1st Annual Poetry vs Hip Hop Basketball game where Team Hip Hop took home the GOLDEN MICROPHONE TROPHY!!

**there are a few Team Poetry mixed in the pictures**

I was able to spend some moments with my beautiful sister, Love Reigns (she is SO much more than just a poet ... get to know her)

And some folk I'd not shared space with in forever ...

The sun was high, the gym was HOT but it didn't stop the fun which ended up transitioning to a warehouse party a few hours later...

OH ME OH MY ... this was a MUCH needed outing! I hadn't had a real reason to put on heels and SHOW MY NEW FORM but here it was!! Time to get out, mingle, dance and enjoy life ... that's what I did too! I had such an awesome time doing so ...

... I was FINALLY able to take touching Mal's beard off of my bucket list ... YES! (laughs)

BIG UPS TO MR/DJ AL PETE ON A WELL PUT TOGETHER, GROWN FOLK GATHERING!! TO THE TOP!!

Now as usual, I have to spot light my cute AFFORDABLE outfit: $19 skinny jeans from Old Navy, $14.99 sheer crop top with open back from Rainbow and $34.99 wedges from Olive Ole' in VA. Did I think I was cute? NO ... I KNEW IT but it wasn't even about that to be honest. Well just a little but once we arrived to the warehouse and I saw all the people "I" went out the window and "WE" having a great night came in! Yes I get into myself sometimes, can you blame me though? I've shed 50 lbs and maintained a healthy lifestyle for over a year now with no weight gain. I am more than proud of the blood, sweat and tears I shed and continue to shed so every now and again to feel myself is warranted I think but ANYWAY, that warehouse party was the perfect ending to my Saturday followed by a Sunday that was just as great ...
