121| NEW LIFE

So, this weekend I went to New York for a very special Baby Shower. I honestly didn’t know if I’d be able to make it. But am very happy that I did! I got to see my prima (cousin) Sandra and give her a hug. Although she and I don’t see each other as often as we’d like to, we’ve always remained in contact. She’s very special and dear to me. She was my first friend in the USA when my family and I moved here. I loved spending time with her while growing up. I’m so proud of her. I also love her partner Emily and it was nice seeing her, and touching her belly. Their baby will not lack love. That space was filled with so, so, much love and excitement! I’m “over the moon” for them!

Please enjoy the pictures. And if I didn’t see you while I was there, my apologies. I had very limited time and was there just for this very special occasion.

I took a picture with them but I think we’d all agree that I not post it lmao.

Thank you for stopping by!

Love, light, the shadow too, Cin.

113| SPRING BREAK 2025 PT 1

I’m back, I’m back lol. I took a mini break and went away with my son during his Spring Break. We went to Tampa to visit my best friend Xenia, his god mom. We flew out on Wednesday night after several delays and gate changes. But we made it to our destination safely and that’s all that matters! We arrived around 1 AM. My body was tired but my mind was awake lol.

The next day was HOT! And I was loving it! A decided that we’d have a pool day and we did just that. But first we went to get brunch at his choice. Denny’s! After we ate we headed home.

The car windows were low and the wind was blowing. My hair was tussled and here he is helping me fix it. Remember I try not to show his entire face on here.

We grabbed snacks and lounged in and out of the pool for hours. He was worn out! We went home and he tucked himself into bed after his shower and took a nap. I had to wake him up several times for dinner lol.

CRAFT STREET KITCHEN AND BAR

3153 Curlew Rd Oldsmar FL 34677

Omg. The food. The drinks. The company. Amazing!!! Definitely a place that I want to visit again! The food is made to order. The only frozen items on the menu are their French fries. I’m attempting on recreating my dish at home tonight. With my own little twist. Both A* and Xenia enjoyed their meals as well. A* raved about his burger.

Afterwards we went home and stayed up for a few hours talking and catching up.

Please come back within the next few days for the update on day two.

Thanks for stopping by!

Love, light, the shadow too—-Cin.
