TBT and a side of new challenge



I made it, I made it! It's the last day of Helene in Between's April Instagram Photo Challenge, as well as my personal goal additionally to blog each day on the same topics, and here I come waltzing in with t-minus 5 minutes to spare. Whooooooo! I did it!

30 days straight of blogging and I feel good. Sure, some days were harder than others to turn up and I would think oh man, why did I challenge myself? Do I really have to keep my own word to blog each day that I take a #30photosinbetween picture too???? But, I set out to get the job done and done it is. Honestly, it gives me clarity, builds my endurance, and makes me focus all around when I have something like this happening. I truly enjoyed myself. So much so, that I am setting another challenge in motion....

One of my very favorite other bloggers is Taylor over at The Daily Tay. Taylor is by far one of the funniest individuals I've ever virtually encountered. I look forward to her blogs each day and was thrilled to see a few days ago, that she is forging forward with an Instagram gig known as #20HappyDaysofMay. I am all for this endeavor and am further challenging myself to blog about each topic just as equally as I Insta a picture.

Friends, let's start the engines and rev them. Here's to that same ambitious high school senior in the above picture, ready to take on the world then, still going strong.

Until we meet again,

Self care reset

We all hear the buzzwords self care more than ever these days. Every where you turn, a lifestyle blogger, health guru, or magazine article shares insight on ways to treat yo self to some basic T. While I love modern discussions as much as the next girl, I’m aware sometimes it just doesn’t fit and you have to reset what isn’t working. For example, some weeks I am just done by the tine Friday hits. Hell, a rough Wednesday or Thursday has crept in there, too, requiring a pause and reflection for how best to naturally beat a funk or a “feeling of less than stellar”. Here my top self care reset ideas for your consideration: Drink water: Warm it with some lemon, try some green tea for an antioxidant boost, or just plain old room temperature is a sure way to get the boost to feeling a bit better. Face it: Fewer things feel as good as a really great face mask. I love charcoal in particular lately and always feel refreshed and restored and ready to ‘face’ another day. See w...

Reset on a Weekend

One of my favorite things in the world is laying in bed on a weekend night watching Netflix movies while my Hunter and my Ro nap next to me and I scroll Instagram home design and wellness accounts as well. This is particularly enjoyable after an extra long week, I might add. I feel calm and giddy alike throughout this downtime. I am able to relax and unwind, often taking mindfulness breaks and enjoying a komboocha or lemon water simultaneously. It couldn’t be any more basic. This recharge makes me naturally happy creating reflection and gratefulness for everything in my life. I’m a hard worker with determination and I like to reach goals and make new ones so I feel like I’m on more than I’m not. I need to reset like this because it reiterates what it’s about most at the end of the day; health, happiness, and an attitude of gratitude. What is your approach to bring it all back to center?              ...
