Discover Regina with me! Spring might have forgotten Saskatchewan BUT I’m still looking forward to the summer and discovering all the places I can get a caffeine top up. Spend the morning with me going to PT, getting coffee and heading work. Thank God for his mercies. Togetherness feels GOOD ❤️ Baby, my skin has been acting up the older I get. I love getting braids, but my face doesn’t love it for me. One week in, I start breaking out without fail, even if I wash my hair with the braids in - as soon as I take the braids out, poof! Clear skin. Three reasons I want to go to Jamaica neooww! Did you catch the third reason though?? 😅🤣 It’s been a stressful 16 months. While I’ve often shared how I feel about the separation, what you didn’t hear about was how it frustrated my husband too, and worst of all, how my daughter soldiered on but cried more and more, until nearly daily.
