Thankful Thursday

 Hello and welcome back! It is Thankful Thursday, and as you know, I believe that feeling happy begins with feeling thankful. So, let's get happy!



1. I am so thankful for a new month, with new goals. I have recently been contemplating and praying about some new ideas I have. They're very early in development, so much so that they aren't even a thing yet! We will see what happens!

2. Seeing my family in a few weeks! I can't wait to be together again for a joyous occasion!

3. Seeing my friends a couple weeks after that! Two of my very best friends from Danville VA will be staying with me for a few days! I haven't seen them in over a year. I miss them so much and can't wait to see them!

4. The Pentatonix Christmas album coming out in a few weeks! I love all of their holiday albums. Even though it's not even Halloween yet, I am genuinely thankful for this Christmas album coming out. As much as I love fall, I love Christmas just as much... maybe more. 

5. Taylor Swift's new album, The Life of a Showgirl!

6. Honestly, I am thankful for coffee and espresso drinks. What a perfect way to break up the day- having a delicious beverage. 

7. Being off every single Wednesday morning from now on! I am so excited for this! I love being off work in the mornings. I am thankful for my morning routine, and now, Wednesday mornings would be even more relaxing!

8. I am so thankful for one of my favorite shows, The Chosen. I am watching season 4 now. The first episode, about John the Baptist, was so beautiful. I basically cried the entire episode, but it was so good. 

9. Getting a reply to a dm I sent to one of my favorite influencers! I will be doing a post about my top 3 favorite bloggers/influencers, and I wanted to get their permission first. One of them reached back out to me! Her message was both sweet and encouraging. 

10. Jesus. I need Him. Every. Single. Day. 

I hope you are able to take a minute today to reflect on all you have to be thankful for. It really will change your mood. 

See you next time!

xoxo

Our Last Monday in August

  Good morning! I am glad you're here 😄. Today I want to talk about what I am currently crocheting. Grab your crochet hooks, a cup of coffee, and let's get into it! I took this a few weeks ago, one Sunday evening. Thomas and I were hanging out on the deck with our dogs, enjoying the warm weather. I should be finishing up with these hot-girl squares and I'll let you know what I make of them! I learned how to make a new hot-girl square... a skull hot-girl square! They are so cute and so much easier than I thought they would be! I decided to learn how to make them one morning a couple weeks ago when Thomas and I were at the beach. It was a perfect morning. We grabbed iced lattes and acai bowls from our favorite beachside cafe, and enjoyed the entire morning in the sand.  My first one kind of resembled a storm trooper, but I have gotten a little better since this picture! I also decided that I am going to make blankets for my family and friends. I have mentioned this before, b...

Fall 2025 Goals!

Hello! I don't know about you, but I am absolutely ready for this long weekend. I have had a crazy week at work.  Anyway, I want to dedicate this post to my Fall 2025 Goals!  In no particular order, here is a list of some of my goals: 1. Decorate - I want to go all out this year. I have a blow up Snoopy and Great Pumpkin inflatable in my Walmart shopping cart online. I want to have a pretty assortment of pumpkins out on my stoop. Last year, we didn't really have decorations up for the trick-or-treaters, and I want to go all out this year. I will definitely be posting pictures of my progress! 2. Watch lots of football - This will be easy as my husband, Thomas, has an entire room in our house dedicated to watching games. Of course, I will be crocheting blankets while he has the game on tv.  3. Dress up for Halloween - We will probably go to one of our friend's Halloween parties this year, and I am excited to dress up! I'm not sure what Thomas and I will go as, but I am ex...

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 ...
