Blogging is so much FUN!!!

This week marks the 2nd anniversary of my blog!! 🎉I had so much fun this year, even with everything that has happened in the last 6 months…I have been able to still have my writing be so positive. I wanted to start out by thanking Fashion Potluck for recognizing my writing and creating a free platform for women to write, inspire and promote their work.

In the past year, I traveled, met new people and was able to tell peoples stories.

In October 2019, I had the opportunity to visit one of the places on my bucket list which was Puerto Rico. I went with 8 wonderful women who are from a group I talk alot about because of the sisterhood they represent. Click here to read all about my trip:My Trip to Puerto Rico

In October 2019, I also wrote a blog post raising awareness for Breast Cancer and I was able to tell my friends mom story. It was a great honor to do it. Click here to read: The Heart of a Dancer

In May 2020, the group celebrated 2 years with over 4,000 women members and unlike last year, we had a celebration virtually. I wrote a post to commenarate the occasion. Click here to check it out:Queen On

In June 2020, I had the pleasure of being featured in a great blog I follow called Lauras Books and Blogs! Click here to check out my interview:Lauras Books and Blogs

During quarantine, I have been reading more and I have read several books and decided to start a Book Review section for author titles.

First author I read was Rachel Hollis and I read completely”Girl Wash Your Face” and working on “Girl, Stop Apologizing” Click here to read my review:Rachel Hollis Book Review

The next author is a friend of mine Trisha Williams and she has written over 17 titles. She is also in editing and consulting helping other writers get their story out. These are the books I have read so far from her and going to keep it going! Click here to read my review:Ireesky Fiction Book Review

Right Now, I am working on a 52-week Blog Challenge and I am in week 30. I have a new blog post up every Wednesday on My Blog.

I am so looking forward to what is in store for the next year!!☺

31 Day Challenge-Day 31

Things that can probably drive a person crazy but I try to hide about myself….let’s get started

I grind my teeth all the time. I believe it is a nervous tick I have, as a result my jaw is always hurting.
I like to sleep on my stomach because I don’t like looking at the ceiling. For some reason, the ceiling creeps me out.
I like to keep the closet door closed because I think there is something living in my closet.
I do not like my food cold at all. My meal has to be steaming and the cold stuff has to be the right temperature.
I walk through my house in the dark and hate to turn on lights. I figure if there is a power outage, I am prepared.
If I have a light on, it stays on and my family goes behind me and turns them off.

Well, I hope you enjoyed learning all about me…wait till next month when I dig just a little deeper!!

What makes me feel better and has never failed?

MUSIC

I love the sound of music. I love all different genres. I am a fan of how music can soothe the soul. If I want to escape within myself it is my way to solitude. Music lowers my blood pressure, it balances my mood and it is very therapeutic for my disabilities and it also eases my anxiety.

That’s all I got!!

31 Day Challenge-Day 22

I love music…any kind of music!! The world has changed as far as music is concerned. Now, being old-fashioned, I will say that music has really gone south since the 80’s. Now all I hear all about sex, drugs, getting high, disrespecting women and men and shooting each other. I am so tired of it…I need it to go back to when music was about feeling good and being in love. I hear these songs that I just can’t figure out why or how they were able to be produced. Teens these days..this is all they know. All we can do is teach them right from wrong and hope they know the difference. Now that I have said that…let’s get down to my favorite songs of all time!!

Head Over Heels by Tears for Fears

2. Whatever it Takes by Anita Baker

3. Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is by Chicago

4. Another Brick in the Wall 2 by Pink Floyd (I love all 3 parts)

5. Foxy Lady by Jimi Hendrix

6. Higher Ground by Stevie Wonder

7. Soul Makossa by Manu Dibango

8. Heartbreaker by Justin Beiber

9. Reasons by Earth Wind and Fire

10. What’s Going On by Marvin Gaye

Enjoy all the videos…until tomorrow for Day 22

31 Day Challenge-Day 6

Personality traits that I am proud of…there is just so many…I guess I can do 3..1.

My heart is really huge. I love to care for others and give when I can. I have spent my life making sure that my family and friends were well taken care of before my needs. I don’t like to see others struggle so I do my best to make them feel better and help them as much as possible.

2. I am a very decisive person. When I roll up to a drive-thru restaurant, I am already aware of what I want to eat before I get there. In life, you have to make several decisions and I think it is important to clear about what you want so that there is no wasted time.

I love making people laugh. I am a very positive person who loves to spread joy around. I believe that laughter is the best medicine to a happier life. If you can’t laugh everyday, then your life is not complete.

Well, those are only 3 of my best traits…I have more but maybe some other time. Don’t forget to:

31 Day Challenge-Day 5

Okay, Day 5, my guilty pleasure…hmmm. Well, this next one kinda coincides with something I said I hated on Day 2 but because it a different way of doing it I am addicted to it. So here it goes….

One of the facts about me on Day 2 was that I hated shopping because of the long lines, getting in and out the car and using the public restroom well….no one said anything about doing it the easy way.

Skip all this and do it online!! Yes!! Yessssss!! I like ordering things online so much better and I love sending and receiving the packages in the mail all at the comfort of my couch. I use apps such as Amazon, Ebay, Walmart and Groupon. I love the convenience of getting everything from my phone or computer.

Did I also mention food delivery…OMG!! Now I am hungry so that’s all for now until tomorrow!!

31 Day Challenge-Day 1

Hey guys!! How are you? So, yes, I am starting a new challenge which I have never done before except Black History Month when I had to come up with a new history fact for 28 days. I love challenges so I am embarking on a writing challenge for 31 days where I blog about random facts about myself. The fun thing about this is that it will test a person to see how well they know themselves. Let me introduce you to:

So, let me introduce myself, I am LaFrieda and I am the owner of MMMoffamilyentertainment and I am a wife and mother of three and I live in Lakeland Florida. I was originally born and raised in Cleveland Ohio, the Heart of Rock-n-Roll, which is probably why I love rock-n-roll so much. My favorite bands are Journey, Led Zeppelin and Eagles. I also love R&b, country, jazz and pop!! In my free time, I love to write and attend movies, which is why I am an entertainment writer. I am recently retired due to disabilities and have decided to make the most of my life by living it everyday despite my limitations. As I said before, I took on this challenge to write for 31 days and want you all to get to know me a little better. That’s all I got for now, don’t want to give away to much, now would I..lol?

If you would like to join me in the 31-day Blogging challenge that would be awesome!! I would love to read more about my fellow bloggers. Give me a shout out by messaging me and I will send you the prompts if you don’t already have them. Let me know in the comments what you think and don’t forget:

Family meeting for June….the winner is…

Okay so…no this is not my bedroom but I am showing you this because like this simple bedroom, me and my husband don’t need alot. We have just recently gotten rid of most of our furniture in our bedroom and found that it is so much more space to spread out. Anyway, this is the scene of where we had our May family meeting in. We decided to make it informal this time and it was a lot shorter.

Where we left off last month was that my daughter received the Employee of the Month!!

She was awarded it by her brothers in May for taking care of Sage. She was exempt from chores for the month of May. She got to choose who was Employee of the Month….

And the winner is…….

Brian Sr.!! Yeah!! She chose her dad because he was very helpful with everyone’s chores. As his prize he gets every Friday, Saturday and Sunday off of chores for the month of June including cooking. So this is how he will be spending his weekends for now…..
