Creative Spark
Creative spark? “That light’s gone out!” “I don’t have time to make dinner let alone anything else!” “I don’t know how to [insert craft.]” “I just don’t have the money for supplies for what I want to do/create!” Sound familiar? I totally get it. Just this month alone… 4 birthdays bad storms almost every afternoon I’ve been having bad headaches QA (Quality Assurance) inspector prep work + they came into work this Sunday/Monday (I work at a hotel, this is a big deal!) my sleep schedule has been off for some reason my fiancé has been home more lately so we’ve been spending more time together (yay for schedule…

Feeling like you’re going insane?
It’s easy to feel like you’re going insane these days isn’t it? You feel like you’re in the midst of chaos trying to run a household, perhaps raising children, working a part time or full time job, take care of the car[s], go grocery shopping, make and get to doctor and dentist appointments, attend or host a birthday party, get on Pinterest for a new recipe for dinner tonight, read at least one chapter in the book that you’ve been meaning to read… does this sound like you? The list seems to go on forever and ever. It would make The Neverending Story jealous. So how does one stop the…

It’s all about the Goals baby
Welcome to the 2nd half of the year, like literally, half the year has already passed. I don’t know about you, but I certainly have no clue where this year went! I will say, this year has been… eventful… and perhaps getting caught up in the throes (or should we say throws?) of life, I have gotten away from the vision and goals that I created this year. As it is now the 2nd half the year, now is a perfect time to revisit those goals, and while NOT beating ourselves up, evaluate where we currently are and make modifications. Let’s not look at “Oh, I haven’t done that,” or…

1 year later, Still #Charlestonstrong
#Charlestonstrong Or should I say, still #Charlestonstrong. 1 year ago today: June 17th, 2015 ——- 1 man took the lives of 9 people (and injured others) at the Mother Emanuel AME church. No one would have ever imagined the chaos that reigned that night. I know I sure didn’t. I was working late, overseeing a banquet function at the hotel I was currently working at in Mount Pleasant, with no idea the chaos that was happening on Calhoun St, Downtown Charleston. It wasn’t til I got home that I found out about the tragedy that had befallen on my city. I don’t have cable, it’s expensive but mostly because it’s just too depressing (case…

Gratitude Attitude
It’s June 1st (who can believe it already?! Didn’t we just celebrate New Years, St. Patty’s and Easter? Now school is out?!) and the year is halfway over. It’s that time of year where I look at where I was in the beginning of the year, reflect on what progress (or lack of progress) I’ve made, look at contributing factors and re-evaluate the goals I’d set out for this year. I’m not gonna ask you how your resolutions are going (I do goals vs. resolutions, but yeah, I’m right there with ya…), but I have a different question to ask you. When you hear the word gratitude, what do you see?…

Memorial Day
Happy Memorial Day!!! Today we celebrate Memorial Day, part of Military Appreciation Month. It is celebrated on the last Monday in May, honoring those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for the American Dream and the right to Freedom: their lives. I know that I’ve done a lot of posts this month regarding Military Service. It is something that has always been close to my heart and now as a future USMC wife, it’s even closer to my heart! Sometimes all the individual branch and remembrance days can be hard to differentiate between and keep track of. I found this graphic recently and I think it sums it up…

Keep Reaching for the Stars
Hello everyone! I hope that you had a great weekend and that your start to this week is rocking. I know my week kinda already got to a rocky start, but I’m getting past some hurdles and working my way thru it. One of the ways I’ve gotten thru some rough starts to the day is due to the community that I’m privileged to be with, especially among my blogging friends, mentors and companions. This thought kinda hit me the other day and I wanted to share it with you. Everything can get VERY overwhelming, VERY quickly and makes things VERY confusing. There’s no magic pill to fix it…
