Welcome!




Hello friends and welcome!

My name is Mandy, wife to my favorite other half Clayton & step mama to my 8 yr old kiddo. I'm originally from MD, but now live in beautiful San Antonio, TX.

I like cleaning, decorating, movies, singing, diy-ing, scrolling IG and Amazon all while sipping coffee till its wine time. I've been a cosmetologist since 03' and find joy in making others feel beautiful. Im a bit of a homebody, but can strike a convo with anyone. I believe there's so much joy in the little things, and that everyday should be celebrated!

I'm so glad you are here, let the inspiration, friendships, and laughter begin.

Teami 30 day tea detox...yes I tried it!

Yes I have tried Teami and I just HAD to share with you all! It all started with one celebrity sharing Teami on Instagram, so of course I decided to check it out. I subscribed to Teami Blends via YouTube and what they said sounded promising, and the quality of their tea looked amazing. I went to Amazon since the price for the Teami 30 day Detox Tea Kit was cheaper than Teami's actual website. It was still sold by Teami Blends and fulfilled by Amazon.

She is now 7 years old...but what some of you may not know is my ex (who I dated for 4 years) had two little girls. They were 6 and 9 when we first met, and when him and I broke up they were 10 and 13. I loved them both like they were my old children, even though they were not biological. Learning the "role" of the step parent takes time, and it's NOT easy. Being a step parent is a very challenging job and often goes unnoticed. First I have learned that the children must come first. Their feelings in this role are crucial. They will need guidance and direction, and in some ways the child might learn to favor one house to the other....but you never want them to feel that they need to pick a side. Parents also should never bad mouth the other. Even if your divorce ended badly, you do not want to influence the child/children to hate the other parent or even the step parent. Childr...
