    Shining Moments: July 10th-16th, 2022

    July 17, 2022 / No Comments

    It’s been awhile since I posted this year as it’s been an insane/crazy/busy year, but I’ve really been wanting to get back into writing these posts. This week has been about small things, food and shopping.   Shining Moments – Got free smoothies for me and babe. They were having tech issues and by the time they tried to run my card, the system said “NOPE, not today.” I offered to come back later to pay for them, but he said not to worry about it – Babe got to see a hummingbird at the feeder we have outside finally! He’s seen them flit by, but never stationary – While…

    June’s Reaching For the Stars

    June 3, 2019 / No Comments

    Happy June everyone! Can you believe we are already 5 months finished and almost halfway through the year?!?! It seems like we are just blowing by 2019. Since time is going so fast, it’s a good time to revisit goals made. There are some that I’m sure will not get accomplished this year, but that’s ok! May is usually a good month for me personally with reflection and new experiences or chapters in my life (college graduation, a few years ago I went on a special celebratory mountain cabin trip with close friends, music concerts and more). I had the full intention of taking May to reflect and create either…

    I hope that everyone has had a great start to the New Year! It’s already Day 5, can you believe it?! One of my goals is re-committing to writing blog posts again. I got wrapped up in personal things and I’ve been able to get some things finished up and other things off of my mind, so I’m ready to get focused on my Yearly Word: Roots. This might sound like an odd word, but this year is about starting from the beginning, focusing on the bottom up and re-growing. This year involves trimming back the tangles and unwanted items to be able to grow. It is also me wanting…

    Happy first day of August! It’s time for this month’s edition of Reaching For the Stars,  a monthly goal post. ( Who can believe school is almost here?! ) Let’s recap July’s goals: Really sit with the planner as I am readjusting to new hours: 3:30pm – 12am 5x a week (8 hrs + 30 min break) instead of varying times of 10 hour shifts 4x a week (AND getting schedule a week in advance vs the whole month in advance) Revisit, recreate and stick to new budgets since I’ll no longer have a commission check to have a cushion with. The difference between the raise I got and a normal…

    Happy first day of July! It’s time for this month’s edition of Reaching For the Stars,  a monthly goal post. ( Who can believe this year is halfway over?! ) I don’t know about you, but this Summer has already been hot, hot hot!!! I’m talking about 95 with heat indexes up to 110-115 and it was only JUNE. Usually August is our hottest month here in Charleston, but I think we’re gonna have a contest for which is the hottest season this year. Let’s recap June’s goals: Continue the progress I’ve made for Crescent Moon & Stars – 10 posts (5 of those being the weekly gratitude/reflection, 1 Monthly goal post)…
