So the other night, Adam and I finished a movie that came out recently on Amazon Prime called " A Million Miles Away". I had been wanting to watch it for some time and finally convinced Adam we should give it a chance. Comically, only 20 minutes in, and our 10:15 pm timer shut the [...]
Adam and I spent many years trying to figure out our budgeting system and make due with our level income with the big goals and dreams we want to accomplish but never quite felt like we were rocking it. Let's say it has felt like one of those marathons with all of the extra challenges [...]
Finding the people who get you and share the same values is huge. We have spent many years just the two of us with a few friends, until recently. We would hang out with couples who liked hanging out and were fun to be around but never really felt that connection. I would leave feeling [...]
I've been decluttering my house the last few months, and it's been amazing. It feels so good, and it is a great deal easier to pick up. (Easy but still a drag, don't get me wrong). But never the less, it has been awesome! I had been listening to "The Happiness Project" implementing what I [...]
Let's face it, we're human and NEED humans in our day to day life. I am no stranger to loneliness. For a while, I was much too acquainted and comfortable with the idea of being lonely. It was easier to cry at night thinking of the connections I didn't have, feeling sorry for myself and [...]
Well, it's November...officially the month of planning Christmas. Ha! Never mind taking time to give thanks and show gratitude, there's no time for that! Christmas is around the corner! Seriously, we have parties to plan, shows to attend, dinners to make and money to spend...wait no... a stress load of money to spend. For us, [...]
I know I'm not the only mom that feels like you constantly are asking your kids to pick up after themselves or if they're in charge of a chore you remind them to do it all the time making their beds,feeding the dogs,pick up their toys whatever it might be. You feel like you're going [...]
What the heck! Okay, so I have these goals super important to me...I know I need to do them or I really want to do them but I don't get to it and feel even more awful than before. What is wrong with me? What am I so afraid of? Guess what! Your are not [...]
The other day I was chatting with another mama connecting and sharing the love of motherhood. Sadly my heart was left swollen with disappointment at the end of our conversation. The kind of disappointment that makes you look at the rest of world and see negative patterns created over a long period of time you [...]
Okay ladies! I have been really focusing on my diet and exercise the last two years and have incredible results but call me crazy the last three months I have been struggling. I was getting my cravings again, I was really bloated with lower abdominal cramps and my energy was so blah! As much [...]
I used to give myself the excuse that I wasn't meant for success because I didn't know what it was....I used to tell myself that I didn't deserve it. I didn't feel like I could be successful. I was always the"live by the seat of your pants kind of girl" never serious, never planning just [...]
As the Fall Fashion creeps in, little by little we start to look at those mannequins and wonder...."hmm, would that look good on me?"we start to discount our beauty and think "Nah, I'm too short" or "Eh, if my hips weren't so...." because we do not fit that cookie cutter idea of what looks good [...]
