As a woman approaching the Big 40 in a few short years I have to say although I am more confident that I ever was and know without any doubt who I am, my worth and even my limits, I still find myself constantly looking for that encouragement to keep my physical self in check.

One of the women I look to for that inspiration is Jennifer Lopez...Jenny from the Block...JLo. I don't care who you are you know she is just as hot now as she was when she first hit the scene as a young Fly Girl on In Living Color. Only now she exudes even more confidence.

In a recent article she talks about being sexy at 40, being a mom and how it feels when she is compared (booty to booty) with the much younger ladies...

"There’s no way in the world that just because women turn the number 40, they’re anything less than amazing. That’s crazy. If anything, you’re even more amazing!"

I encourage all my lady friends to take a few minutes to read what she has to say and let it sink in... On that note I hear my morning squats calling my name! 💋

If you don't know your own worth how can you expect anyone else, especially a man, to know it??

I decided to stop into the tattoo shop on Thursday to get a couple of piercings  {above the neck...stay with me here} and as I'm getting "prepped for the procedure" I overheard one of the girls chatting with her apparent boyfriend on the phone. She must have asked him 5 times where he was, why he didnt answer and why it took him so long to call her back. Each time I could tell from the tone in her voice that she was getting more and more upset.

A few minutes later said boyfriend comes in and they begin to argue... I guess no one ever told them where you keep your dirty laundry because they started loading up the washer! Loud & proud.

I don't know the historyof their relationship but the level of distrust and misery was very apparent.

Point of my story is that sometimes being single gets lonely. Fortunately it takes a very small reminder like this to reassure me I am better off alone than dealing with the bullshit that tends to come along with today's relationships.

Until Prince Charming comes along I'll continue to place my bets on the jockeys!

Happy Sunday ya'll...
