Thankful Thursday

Hello friends! I decided that in order to keep consistency with this blog, I will do a weekly Thankful Thursday post. This will be about anything that I am thankful for. I believe that happiness starts with a thankful heart, so this will be a great way to increase positivity and keep things in perspective for us. So, without further ado, I will share what I am thankful for this week!

  1. Getting my hair done today! I LOVE getting my hair done. I have the best hair girl in Portsmouth! She always does such a great job and we have the best conversation. One thing about me, I am a girls' girl. I can usually strike up a decent conversation with almost any girl. I believe we girls need to stick together!
  2. Getting our pool up; Yall, this pool... I am so thankful it is almost over. We have worked so hard on it. I can't wait to enjoy it next weekend when I'm off work. 
  3. Talking to my granny more this week. I love my family. I miss them. Ever since I moved to NH, I feel so much more myself. But I do miss my family. It would be so nice to be able to actually visit with them any ol day of the week. Maybe go out to eat a nice meal. Have a long talk and coffee date. Facetiming Granny yesterday has made me feel grounded. 
  4. Finally starting this blog. Okay, so you know that writing has been a dream of mine for a while. I've always kept a diary. I love to write. Little stories, journal entries, essays on made up topics, anything. I enjoy writing. I kept feeling this pull towards blogging. Random blogs would show up on my social media and I kept thinking, wow writing a blog post everyday seems like something I could do, maybe even like doing. Anyway, after a couple of years of debating on whether or not to start a blog, I am thankful that I finally decided to do it. I am excited to one day look back and see all of my posts and hopefully see some progress as a writer and storyteller. Me starting a blog in June of 2025 is happening for a reason, and I am thankful for that reason. 
Thank you for reading today's post! Even if my sister, Rachel, is my only the only reader, thanks for reading, Rachel!

Spring Has Me Writing Again 🌼💛

  It has been a while, but I am back! It is so nice to be typing here again. After a busy fall, a holiday season that didn't slow down for a minute, and the harshest winter I've ever lived through, I finally feel like I can breathe, and write, again. I will do a quick recap of my life and then explain my plans for the future of this blog.  So, since my last post was in October, life has been full. Here's a little peek at what's been happening behind the scenes: 1. My cousin's wedding was a success! It was beautiful and now they are actually pregnant!!! I can't wait to meet their baby girl.  2. Thomas and I were fortunate to be a part of our friends' engagement that took place in Boston in December! It was so much fun celebrating the two of them and surprising the bride to be! Now I am excited to help her plan their wedding for next year! 3. I'm changing my career from retail pharmacy to hospital inpatient pharmacy! I start in exactly 3 weeks from today. ...

Decor, Discipline, and Maybe even a Scented Candle🍂🕯️

  Good morning, reader! I feel a mindful essay coming on! Grab a coffee and maybe a notebook, because this essay has some numbered bullet points!  I have been thinking about discipline a lot lately. I feel like it goes hand in hand with attention span, self-awareness, and ambition. Is it becoming more and more rare? They say with smart phones, everyone's attention spans are diminishing. I have noticed this with myself sometimes. This is not a judgement- just an observation I've made about myself and the world around me. And I want to refine it for myself. I want to be disciplined so that I can live my dream life.  I am dedicating this post to 3 ways to be more disciplined in a world that has little to none. So, let's begin! 1. Why do you want this? I believe you should first recognize why you want to achieve something. Is it for your health? Is it for your career? Maybe it's less extreme than that. Maybe it's for your home to be decorated for Halloween. Whatever it ...
