Sounds like Friday’s are right for me! LOL! I saw this post on Instagram the other day and loved it so I thought it was appropriate to share today! This Friday I am feeling:
• grateful 🙌🏼
• grounded 🤍
• content ✨
The sun is shining, I get my nails redone today, and I get to hang with one of my good friends and her kiddos! Fridays are my early days at work so I’ll be out of here in a few hours and I’ll be all ready to start the weekend!
If you had to change your name, what would your new name be?
It would be wild to have a new name, but if I had to choose one it would probably be a name like Devin or Blake. I just like how they are gender neutral, but as a woman, I personally do like these names for girls. These are names my husband does NOT want for future girls so I could take one as my new name LOL!

Ironically, my husband’s boss just got back from France and brought back chocolates for him and his team! He brought them home to share and not only were they adorable, but they were so delicious. They were just simple milk chocolate squares, but I’d 100% buy more if I ever visit Paris.
Since we’re talking about my dream chocolate bar, I guess it would probably just be that french milk chocolate over the kit kat wafer with caramel and peanuts. Basically like a french Snickers bar, replacing the nougat with a Kit Kat. However, I also really enjoy a TakeFive, so maybe that, but with the chocolate from France!
It’s rainy and gloomy outside which makes me just want to stay home and snuggle with my husband and my cats all day. Instead, I will be going to work LOL.
With that being said, I am truly grateful to have a job that I enjoy and that I do well at, and I am happy that my husband and I have jobs and are able to afford our bills. I’m grateful to have a home and clean water, as well as food in the fridge and food for our cats.
I’m grateful that we have each other to lean on and support one another throughout this lifetime, all while loving each other. I thank the universe and my angels for all of the divine support around our marriage and our love, as well as for keeping us safe and healthy.
What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?
To me, that means having a healthy, happy marriage and family. It means being able to provide the life we want to ourselves and our (future) children, without struggling or worrying about finances. It means everyone being in good health, mentally, physically and emotionally. It means loving the home you live in and the career you have, but loving your family the most. I believe this is attainable, and everyone who wants it, deserves it.
Went on a solo walk today and really enjoyed my time soaking in the sun and enjoying the peace. I’ve been allowing myself to enjoy this quiet time in my life, and I am just so happy that I’ve been able to feel so present.
I’m at the vet now so my cat Mushu can have her glucose checked again now that she’s been on insulin for a week, so we’re praying for good numbers. There are still more tests after this, but again I’m just grateful for the access to the vet and the fact that we can afford these visits for her.
My husband has a fun couple of days happening this weekend! He is playing AirSoft with some friends this morning, and tomorrow he has his second race in his go-karting league. I’m going to his race tomorrow since I was out of town for his first one, and I plan to go to all of them for the rest of the season! I’m excited that he’s doing something for himself and finally doing something with racing.
My dance class starts back up in a couple weeks, so I’ll be back to that weekly for the summer! I am excited to get back into it and keep moving my body in my fun way! I am hoping to keep working on being loose and flexible when I’m dancing, rather than ridged and stiff. I just want to be in my body and in the moment, and dancing helps to ground me there.
I gotta run to the grocery store and get ready for the week ahead! I want to have ginger shots ready and lunches for my husband and I. I also want to have a couple ideas for dinners during the week so I don’t feel the need to think about it after working all day. I am ending May on a high note, and I’m so excited to see what joy and abundance June brings!
How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen?
When I start to feel like I am very overstimulated or feeling generally chaotic, I typically will decide to take a social media break. I also will have moments where I realize how much I am ignoring other goals I have just by wasting time on socials and sometimes that motivates me enough to get off in that moment. I typically delete my social media apps off my phone and that alone helps so much because I never login through desktop or anything.
Honestly. Just be real with me. It’s funny because as a people pleaser, I have NOT been an honest friend in the past. I realize now I was hindering genuine connections and communication with my friends, and I have grown a lot over the past few years in regard to this.
