Welcome March

blog

The sun is shining so bright on this beautiful morning. I’m going to take that as a sign that this month is going to be a great one!

I am about a month out from my tonsillectomy and nasal tissue surgery, and I am excited to be able to breathe and not have all these issues with tonsil stones and sore throats! This month I’m just going to focus on doing things that make me happy, putting energy in where it’s reciprocated, and prioritizing my inner peace.

May March bless you in ways you never thought possible!

Moment of Gratitude

blog

I am finally feeling like myself again. My appetite is back, I’m feeling more happy, and I’m also finally going to be getting my tonsils and some nasal tissue removed in a couple months! I know I’ll have to deal with the recovery of that surgery, but I am honestly just excited to finally have my tonsils gone and be able to fully breathe from my nose!

I got to reconnect with a good friend yesterday and she asked me to be one of her bridesmaids- I said yes! I will be standing by her side down on a beach in Florida come April of 2026! I’m excited for her to have her dream wedding and I can’t wait to celebrate her being a bride!

Today I get to reconnect with another good friend over some coffee, so I’ll be seeing her in a couple hours! I love seeing friends and just chatting about life; it’s great having good conversations with good people!

Oh, also I got VERY excited yesterday because I found mini Bratz at Five Below!! This girl I know through one of my friends had posted some mini Bratz on her snapchat story and I was immediately like “I NEED THEM!” So she told me where to go and I found three out of the four original Bratz Dolls! I’m just missing Jade, but I’m sure I will find her soon! It really is the little things (LOL) ✨

I’m excited to enjoy this lovely Sunday and I am looking forward to a good week ahead!

Sunday 2-9-25

blog

Today is a sunny, relaxing day. I just spend some time writing up from “Galentine’s” cards that I’ll be mailing out to some of my friends tomorrow. I wanted to spread some extra love this year, especially to friends in far places or who I haven’t seen in a while!

I also have been feeling a lot better mentally and physically, and I finally saw an ENT who recommended that I get my tonsils removed! I have been dealing with issues for years and I am finally just going to have them completely removed and although the recovery won’t be fun, the long term result will be so worth it.

I am excited that I am feeling better and more hopeful again. I’ve found turning to my angels always is the answer, and there are times when I forget that. When I am intentional with my thoughts, I can feel the difference. Sending positive vibes to everyone this lovely Sunday!

Friday Feelings

blog

Yesterday I posted how I was giving up my worries about my health to the universe, and yesterday the universe helped me out. I had an appointment scheduled for a consult with an ENT out in mid March since that was the first opening, and yesterday I called the office to see if I could get on a cancellation list and she told me they had a cancellation for tomorrow (aka TODAY)! So I get to meet with the specialist sooner rather than later, which is already helping to ease my concerns.

I can’t help but feel grateful and feel a bit more hopeful, and it’s a good reminder for me to continue to lean into faith over fear.

Thursday Thoughts

blog

I have been a bit overwhelmed with not feeling 100% and not getting answers from my doctor, but worrying and stressing about it is not helpful for my mental or physical health. I am giving this worries over to the universe, and I will trust that answers will come with time. I will continue to be observant and be an advocate for myself, but I do not need to constantly obsess over symptoms and possible diagnoses. I am happy that I get to see my therapist tomorrow (well I’ll probably do a phone call/telehealth) so I can have some guidance during this time.

Wishing everyone a happy thursday!

Monday Morning

blog

May this week be full of random blessings and happiness that you didn’t expect.

May this week be smooth and peaceful, reminding us all how to live slower and be more present.

May this week bring you back to yourself, reminding you of your true power.

Happy Monday ✨

Sunday, February 2nd

blog

It’s 8:10am as I start this, and yesterday I was in bed at 6:15pm ready to sleep. I was not feeling 100% yesterday, I even threw up in the morning and took an afternoon nap. My husband had the stomach flu on Friday morning, so it makes sense that I would get it as well.

This morning I’m feeling good, just tired. You know how when you get too much sleep you just feel groggy? Yeah, well that is me currently. Technically we have family dinner at my husband’s parents’ house today, but google says that you can be for contagious days after you have the stomach flu. So I’m not sure that it’s the best idea to go.

Today I need to make our lunches for the week, and I also really want to use my juicer again to make some green juice and some lemon ginger shots. I wasn’t feeling great for the last half of last month either so I’ve been slacking on my health a little bit. I also want to get back to working out at least a few days a week, but not sure I’m exactly up for that today- I can at least do some stretching though.

Even though my February started off with me throwing up and still not feeling great, I still have hope that this month will be a good one. I’m not giving up on February yet… I mean, it’s only day two. Instead I am leaning into the affirmation I received in my inbox this morning from Moon Omens:

moon omens affirmation 2/2/25

And so it is. ♥️

February

blog

May February bring peace and clarity to your life, and may you feel any darkness that’s been around you literally lift away.

May February bring healing and protection to your mental and physical wellbeing, and may you feel better than you have been.

May February bring abundance and luck to your life, and may you be grateful and present for it all.

May February be the reset you need, and may it bring you so much joy that you feel excited about the rest of the year.

Happy February 🤍✨

Sunny Sunday (1-26-25)

blog

I took a quick pause from making our lunches for the week to post in here. I’ve been feeling pretty bleh lately, but luckily I am aware that this feeling isn’t going to last forever. Today I’m still doing what I need to do to set myself up for the week, and for that I am proud.

I purposely made zero plans this weekend just to use it as a reset, and it has been exactly that. Yesterday my husband and I went out for a breakfast date and grabbed a few necessities from Walmart, but we spent our Saturday night in hanging out together. This morning we slept in and then went out and grabbed some Starbucks!

Spending time with my husband and just being in our home is such a blessing, and I am grateful for this life of ours. Wishing everyone a happy Sunday filled with blessings and love! 🤍✨

Weekend Thoughts and Affirmations

blog

I have been on a social media break since the beginning of December. One of the accounts I really liked on Instagram has an email signup where they send daily affirmations, so I had signed up over a year ago and I continue to get them. Todays affirmation from Moon Omens was as follows:

“I trust that what is meant

for me is on its way. I am in

alignment with my life path.

I embrace the unknown.

I choose love over fear.”

I definitely needed this today, as I have just been in a little funk with this winter season. I also have been dealing with different health conditions like flu, uti and possible tonsillitis. We also had to take one of our cats to the vet yesterday, so today we will get results from her blood and urine. I’ve just been feeling a bit overwhelmed and when I read this I resonated with it. I figured I also can take this and put my own personal twist on it:

I trust that what is meant for me is on its way; I am allowed to release all of my worries and let go of control.

I am in alignment with my life path, even when I am not feeling 100% myself, I can trust this is all happening for me and a higher plan.

I embrace the unknown, and lean in with curiosity. This had me immediately think of another other quote I stumbled upon recently that says “The only true wisdom is knowing you know nothing.” I am allowed to dive into the unknown and let go of the need to appear smart or perfect.

I choose love over fear. I think we’ve all heard the phrase “the only thing to fear is fear itself,” and that is because if you let it, fear can completely take you over. I’d much prefer to live a life where I see through a lens of love and compassion rather than fear and hatred.

I’m using this weekend as a reset. I want to get back in a good headspace and focus on my goals- I am honestly very excited for it. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Sending extra love and positive vibes to everyone!
