How it all began....Part One
Do you ever wonder what your life would be like, if you had chosen another path, opened a different door or said no when you should have said yes? Making one decision can ultimately dictate what your future holds. For the better or for the worst, you just have to make sure that the decision you make is the right one.
Let me tell you my story..... My name is Priscilla but all my friends and family call me Lola. I have a wonderful husband named Jack who is in the United States Marine Corps, a three year old little boy Carmelo who is my world, and a promising career. I mean life is great right now. I am so blessed to have the life that I live! Although, this isn't exactly what I pictured my life to be like, and the road I took to get here wasn't quite so easy. If you would of told me five years ago that I'd be here today, I would have laughed in your face.
In order to understand who I am and what I'm all about, I'm going to have to start in the beginning. Let's go back a couple years to when and how it all started. It all began in Jersey which is where I met my husband. While living in Jersey I finished my BA and was going for my MA, I had a great paying job and not to mention a SEXY husband. I was seriously living my dream life! I like to think it was my version of Sex in The City minus the Sex part. Fashion is a big part of who I am so I definitely was dressing the part spending most of my money on clothes, shoes and bags. I mean I was a hard working women, I could do what I wanted. I led a well balanced life. I would party in NYC with my girls, take care of home and played the wife role, and of course I was achieving my career goals with school and work. Life couldn't have been more perfect. I had everything under control, or so I thought.
Little did I know that my reality was about to get a bit interesting.....
I remember that day as if it were yesterday. I am at work and I get a phone call from Jack, "Babe, we have to talk" His tone was serious, which meant something was up. He continued with "I got orders and we're moving in a month." I say, "Moving, in a month, where!!??" "California" he says.
My instant reaction was "shock." I mean I knew we would eventually have to move, I just didn't think it would really happen. I thought to myself, I can't go! What about me? I have my work, school, friends and family. Did I really have to leave? I mean don't get me wrong I love my husband but I had my own identity, my own life, and just like that it's gone?! Do I really have to start all over again, meet new people, live in a place where I don't know anyone? And I only have a month to do it! What was I going to do...... What would you have done??
I did what any self respecting women would do. I left everything and followed him, he is my husband and I love him. Besides, I was not about to let his Sexy behind go across country without ME! LOL. Then I thought to myself California, hmmm I can do Los Angeles, Hollywood, Movie Stars. I've always wanted to visit there.
My life was about to change in such a huge way and I had no idea what was in store. What happened next was definitely not expected, I seriously wasn't ready for what he was about to say. To be continued...
Part Two
Sincerely yours,
Lola xoxo
