Reflection for the 2017 New Year
As 2016 is ending (thank Goodness, I just can’t even!) and 2017 is about to start, it’s now the annual time for everyone to reflect on the good and perhaps even bittersweet moments of the year. Let’s jump right on in! I want you to take a journal that makes you happy and that you’ll want to write in and/or reflect on (or a plain notebook if that makes you happy!), some plain poster board (5 sheet pack for $1 at the Dollar Tree) or even this beautiful Gold Glitter Poster Board from Staples (only $3.99. I know! It’s GORGEOUS!) Starting off with Success To start off…

How to Host a Success Party
I don’t know about you, but this summer went by so quick! It’s practically over and school time is almost upon on us. Our boys go back on the 15th and then college here starts around the 23rd. Did the summer go by as quickly for you? As we have summer draw to a close, I’d like to share a great idea to end the summer with a celebration of the moments that were created with the people you’ve met and/or shared with. Of course, like any party, you got to plan out some details first. Who do you want to invite? How are you going to invite them (paper, digital,…

Making (and Rocking) a Success Journal
It’s always kinda of made me twitch when someone says: “I’m too blessed to be stressed!” As it’s certainly been over used, I have to fight the urge to roll my eyes. However, the idea behind the phrase does have some merit. If you’re so focused on being positive, appreciating the small things, practicing gratitude for who you are, what you do and what you have and respecting the successes that are in your life, then the feelings of chaos, unworthiness and overall negativity are minor to the radiant glow that you have. Bask in that glow baby. As you already know, this month’s theme is about success. Earlier this…

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…

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…

Crescent Moon and Stars Relaunch
Buy me some flowers and take me to dinner, Crescent Moon and Stars is a month old! In celebration, there has been a major facelift and a relaunch! I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has supported me in my endeavors of getting Crescent Moon and Stars from an idea to launching May 10th (1 day after getting back from vacation… hindsight man… haha) and tweaking things. I would particular like to thank Raewyn at Be A Warrior Queen, Allie at Allie Williams Co., to everyone who participated in Alle’s The Daily Ten challenge (BIG shoutout to the_a_team), Emilie at Burke Does and Wendy at The Gratefulist.…
