A Plus Size Life, Style, Fashion and Beauty Blog!
I always admire the photos of other bloggers. The way they pose and have the perfect smile, perfect stance, the perfect photo. The more I looked at the photos of others, the more I began to dislike taking photos of my own. I would find every imperfection and slowly began to chisel at my self-confidence.

It is officially January 1st, 2019! I can not believe that 2018 is now a memory. I am writing this post on my way back to New York City. I decided that I wanted to spend New Years in Niagara Falls. I have always wanted to go to Niagara Falls. Me being a water lover and one that derives her sense of peace being near large bodies of water, I thought it would be the perfect way to bring in the New Year. Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned and I didn’t get a chance to view the falls. Babe doesn’t have a passport and therefore we stayed on the US side, which is not as eventful as the Canadian side. Nevertheless, whenever I get
We are almost at the midpoint of 2018! It is astonishing to think about how fast the year has gone by. Apparently, I have lost sight of all the goals that I have set for myself and though I have achieved a few; it is not enough. Back to the drawing board for me. Time to refocus, hustle and create a harmonious balance of all. Tell me. How are you doing with your achievements? If you’re right on schedule…congratulations! Care to share a few pointers? If you’re like me and refocusing….we can help each other. :o)
Happy Easter! Today is a little unorthodox being Easter and April Fools Day. Today I decided to forgo tradition and not attend church service and cook a huge an Easter feast. I needed to be still. It has been a long time since I have written a post. Work responsibilities, especially preparing for tax season has taken first priority. Curvy Intuition has always been my creative outlet. Writing is therapeutic and provides freedom. My life as a 30+ woman living, working and existing in New York is pretty structured. What I discovered during my hiatus is that I need to incorporate my therapy into my life. I need to create a work/ life balance which is something that is very difficult. Even more difficult to admit.
At the beginning of each month, my first post would normally be about goals. I want to continue this important tradition. This is my way of holding myself accountable. Some of the goals that I have set forth are attained; others are not and I accept that. However, it is important for me to know where I am going and monitor the progress of this blog. Bear with me. I have become so detached since the beginning of the year and have spent most of my day’s knee deep in tax returns and other financial obligations. I love my job and I love being an accountant, but just between us… One of my biggest dreams is to be self-employed. I have spent most of my life in a financial position furthering the goals and fattening the pockets of my employers. Only through focus, hard work, ambition, blood, sweat and ultimately tears can I finally make it a reality.
Milestones in a bloggers life are cause for a celebration. No matter how small or enormous. I have been blogging for a little over a year, and I am very proud of what I have learned and accomplished to date. However, there are times that I become a little envious of other bloggers. Each time they share a collaboration or amazing photo; all I can do is say ” I want to be able to do that too.”
