Happy Halloween + Halloween Movie Marathon Ideas
Happy Halloween, Samhain, or Day of the Dead! I hope that you’re enjoying your day and ready to go get some candy trick or treating. Perhaps instead of bobbing for apples and going door to door for candy, maybe you’re attending a fall or Halloween festival. This year I’m not feeling too well, so I decided to host my own self-halloween movie marathon in the apartment, surrounded by my decorations and I turned on the orange lights I put over the door. [one-half-first][/one-half-first][one-half][/one-half] Yesterday I was able to make it out to probably one of the biggest pumpkin patches here in Charleston over at Boone Hall Plantation at the Boone…

I’m in a whirlwind of emotion… literally!
Hey everyone! I hope that you’ve all had a great week. This week has been pretty stressful for the Southeast coastal cities. I’m sure you’re already aware, but we have Hurricane Matthew out there and he’s making a big fuss. He’s already gone through Haiti and left devastation in a place that is still recovering from their earthquake a few years back and other back-to-back but less volatile storms this year. Hurricane Matthew (as of Thursday 11am) is a Category 4 storm with 140 mph winds. He is expected to hit Florida Friday Morning and Charleston Saturday Morning. The fun part (extreme sarcasm) of this is there is now a chance Matthew…

Fall Bucket List Challenge
Hey everyone, Happy 1st day of October! We’re still waiting for fall to truly arrive here in Charleston, but we had very nice weather yesterday. Still in the lower to mid 80s here, but that’s not stopping us from prepping for fall. We already have fall events lined up, the fair will be at the end of the month and pumpkin patches popping up everywhere. I’ve already been burning fall candles and wax melts and beginning to decorate our home. I’m SO ready for fall! Has Fall reached your area yet? Any leaves changing, fall festivals, football games? I’d love for you to share with me your pictures and fun…

Being Healthy: How to be prepared for health and stay that way
To your health! If you don’t have your health, you don’t have anything. Take your medicine! Don’t forget your vitamins! Go natural/organic! We hear and see so much regarding our health. Understandably so as health is important as we need to have healthy bodies to keep up with our lives. You go try running a marathon with the flu. (Disclaimer: I am not speaking from experience. I hate running. If I’m running, you should be running with me as it means something is chasing me or I’m super late.) I’m not going to give any tips or tricks on how you should live your life in a health sense.…

Technology Lifesaver
Hey everyone, hope that you’re having a great start to your week already. I also hope that you have enjoyed the Preparedness series I’ve been working on lately. Life has been kinda interesting lately and therefore I’ve been pretty reflective on different aspects of daily life. In this edition, we’re gonna talk about being prepared for technology issues. What would you do if your computer died? I’m talking about sitting down, hitting the power button to turn it on and nothing. Nadda. Zip. Zilch. That would be incredibly frustrating and scary right? What about your phone, tablet or your camera? What if that happened as well?…

Happy Fall Y’all!
It’s the first day of Fall! How exciting is that?! It’s gonna be a great season, I can just feel it! I’m so so so so so so so excited (can you tell?) Fall is undoubtedly my favorite season. It’s just so awesome! These are just some of my favorite things to enjoy about the season: The crispness of the air, the changing of bright colored flowers and trees to darker passionate red, shining gold and burnt orange leaves, the smell of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, doing some fall cleaning (or painting a room in the house), cooking and baking, Halloween and Thanksgiving, holiday decorating, cuddling up with my…
