June’s Reaching For the Stars
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…

August 2018 – Reaching for The Stars
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…

July Goals – Reaching For The Stars
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)…

Shining Moments – May 2018 (Week 4)
Hello everyone, I hope that you had another great week! It’s that time again for Shining Moments, a weekly roundup of gratitude, awesomeness and reflection. Had not just 1, but 2 guys help me with my car – had a headlight go out and since this car is still so new to me, I had no idea what I was doing lol. Just when I thought I was going to have to call Dad, 2 different guys came and helped me. So thankful At our apartment laundry complex, a woman approached me, saying that she had an odd question to ask. Her daughter’s bike needed air, but the air…

May’s Reaching For the Stars
Happy May and welcome to this month’s edition of Reaching for the Stars! Where has the year gone? We’re already almost halfway there! It seems that FINALLY the US is getting Spring weather. While certainly not nearwhere as cold at the Midwest & Northeast, our weather here in Charleston has been all topsy – turvey. Only in the South can you be freezing in the morning & wrapped up in scarves and by lunch time the AC is on and we’re all trying to de-layer. As soon as I was ready to put away the heater, scarves and heavier blankets for airy sheets & shirts/dresses, Mother Nature decided to throw…

Happy First Day Of Summer!
Happy First Day of Summer!!! Have any plans yet? Any vacations, planned beach trips, mountain climbing or catching some rays and dipping in the pool? Don’t forget summer cookouts, family reunions, and a big July 4th. (Who doesn’t love a good fireworks show?!) Or are you like me and have absolutely no idea? Never fear, I have inspiration for you. Over the past few years, I’ve noticed several different weekday themes/inspirations on Pinterest. They have good ideas and with their clever alliteration, but sometimes they didn’t hit home with me. Field Trip Friday? I’m in my late 20’s, field trips are not exactly a thing anymore (Side note: sorta feeling bummed…
