Thankful Thursday!


 Hello! I am glad you're back! Today is Thankful Thursday and I am so glad to share what I am thankful for this week with you! As I have said before, gratitude leads to happiness, so let's get happy!

  1. My sister, Rachel! She is making some changes in her life that I am excited for! She is about to move into a bigger house, where she'll be neighbors to one of our cousins (whose wedding we will both be in later this year). Change can be scary, but she seems to be happy about it. I am looking forward to helping her decorate the new place. 
  2. Trying our new work schedule this week- my partner and I are going to test it out this weekend. I am eager to have shorter shifts, even if it means working more days per week. To tell you the truth, I don't know if will like it better than my old schedule, but I am willing to try it out. So, let's hope it goes well!
  3. I have worked out more this week! I have been very inconsistent with my workout schedule, but this week, I decided to make it a priority. Plus, I'm hoping that with my shorter work shifts, I will be able to hit the gym before coming home! 
  4. Spending more time outside and in our pool! This one pretty much explains itself!
  5. My health. I take it for granted most days, but I really am thankful for my physical and mental health. Thank you, Lord, for blessing me with good health my whole life. I give you all the glory and praise!
  6. My husband and I are making some adjustments to our finances, and I am thankful for the opportunity to do so. We have a great financial advisor and he's been talking us through some changes to help us make the most of our finances now, in the near future, and later on in life. 
  7. Lastly, only two weeks until a pre-season Bengals game which means... FALL!!! I cannot wait for Fall 2025. I'm ready to have my PSL in hand, cozy sweater, and my favorite boots on like it's my uniform! I love fall fashion, fall decor, fall recipes, fall everything. When I think of football season, I automatically think of fall. I am thankful it's almost here! The anticipation is exciting! 
That is all for today! I hope you are able to pause for a moment today to reflect on all of the beautiful things in life to be grateful for. 
See you tomorrow!

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 ...

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. ...
