Motivational Monday

Motivational Monday - 4/29/2024

Throw stuff out

Organize it

Put it away

..... Whatever you need to do. A cluttered house, clutters your mind and it's hard to relax. Do a little something every day.

This also applies to work. Take a look at your desk.

Do you have files everywhere?

Post it's?

Old family pictures?

Now go look at your managers desk (or the person that has the job you are working towards). Does it look the same?

Take 10 minutes to really look at the post its you have around your monitor. Do you still look at them? If not throw it out. If you still think you need them - combine to one sheet and post on your wall or add to OneNote. After a while your mind doesn't see/read them because they are so used to them.

Look at old family pictures... Can you take some home and update with a couple current ones? Can you create a calendar in Shutterfly or Walgreens to display monthly pictures there? This would allow you to have less family pictures in frames but every month look at new ones.

Today, pick up the things on your stairs (I know you have something there that you have walked by 10 times! :) )

Happy Monday

Happy Nail Polish Day! - June 1

Who knew this day existed?!?! I sure didn't and apparently this is the first year. Essie started it, doesn't matter, I am happy to celebrate with them. I love nail polish. I love the variety of colors and the way it completes an outfit. I love the confidence it gives me of a polished, put together look. I never used to wear it as much as I do now. What changed was an amazing product that my Mom found as well as a cool new trick I discovered. Now I do my nails in my sleep. Literally! It's not rocket science but if you stop and think about it, it's actually a genius idea. My nails dry in my sleep. I get ready for bed, grab my magazine or book and the polish and top coat I want to use. I read a while ago you only need about 10 minutes between coats. It is actually true. Years ago I always thought it was longer so doing my nails literally took over an hour if not more. Who has that amount of time? ...

WHATS UP WEDNESDAY - 3/27/24

What a month! The weather has been crazy, snow and 60's! I wish Mother Nature would make up her mind and stick to it! But I think we are on the upswing and getting warming. Bring on the sun and flip flops! Let's dive in! 1. WHAT AM I LOVING? If you know me for a while you know I don't listen or watch the news. However, I recently found Yodel on Yahoo! It's perfect for me. It's emailed to be every morning at 8:30 with the top few headlines and a few bullets underneath to summarize what I need to know. It's the perfect quick read! Check it out: Yodel What else I am loving is Girl Scout cookies! They arrived and I loved watching her organize them all and bag them with people's names. We are off to deliver this week! Support your Girl Scouts whenever you can! If you needed more motivation.... here is wine paring with your Girl Scout cookies! 2. WHAT WE HAVE BEEN UP TO Miss Curly and I did an Easter craft!...

What's Up Wednesday - 11/29/2023

In my quest to blog more frequently, I am linking up with Shay and Sheaffer on the last Wednesday of the month. Make sure you check out their blogs as well. I have been reading both of them for years and they are 2 of my favorites. I love reading blogs and to me it's an escape from reality. It's like talking to a girlfriend and taking a sneak peek into their lives, closet and home. I have always wanted to blog. I typically wrote a post every 6 months so right now I am pretty horrible, and no one reads. But, in 2024 my goal is consistency. Stay tuned, maybe someday you will be saying my blog is your favorite. That would be music to my ears! Here is what we have been up to lately. 1. Thanksgiving I sat on the couch at my brother and sister in laws after a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. It came to me, if you host or cook Thanksgiving, you are truly an angel. You welcome people into your homes, cook, entertain and ...
