Worth it Wednesday

Product: Floor Tile Stickers

Thoughts: I was super excited. I had previously watched more than my fair share of YouTube videos on peel and stick floor tiles, but since we had a home that isn’t even 2 years old I didn’t want to go that route and found the stickers on Etsy.…

Respect: Given or Earned

This is something I’m sure you’ve heard argued over or even participated in the argument. As a young person, I was always told that I needed to earn respect from those in positions of authority. While I was told this, there was always a space in the back of…

Period

Worth it Wednesday

Product: Period panties

Initial Thoughts: I was excited, but I knew that I couldn’t spend the money (I’m cheap and have no regrets about it) that Thinx brand requires. I went to the mighty Amazon and did an extensive search on which ones had great reviews and were budget friendly. I am…

Working or Staying at Home: Which is Harder?

This is a debate that I’ve never really understood. I can admit in my ignorance, I did feel that there were more advantages to staying at home when I was apart of the workforce. Now that I have a lens based on experience, my views have changed…

Worth it Wednesday

Product: Meal Delivery Kit

Initial Thoughts: Since we kept getting coupons to try different services we would go 4 weeks on each to get the discounts and just decide which one we liked the best

Cook Days: I know they give an amount of time that goes along with each recipe, but…

Being an adult sucks.....Sometimes! (UPDATE)

Am I saying I want to give up adulthood....absolutely not. The truth is, being an adult is not something that you can really be prepared for. Some of the expectations are taught, but the totality of the experience is just something you won’t know until you get here. Well here’s my gripe...…

Hair Products

Worth It Wednesday

One of the things that I really enjoy is trying new products. I’m not super specific to a certain type, but I definitely like skin care because it’s near and dear to my heart as well as hair care. Throwing in some type of food item never hurt either, but basically if it’s offered and free I…

New Year = New Focus

2020 was a year that I was able to start off very strong, but it ended lackluster. I'm not necessarily speaking about everything that went wrong with the world (we are all aware of this part), but my effort towards completing a lot of my personal goals. My pride and joy in my blog was completely…

EOY Self Evaluation: The Year of Proving Me Wrong

2020 has been nothing short of interesting. It has proven to provide challenges that required creative thinking as well as finding a "new normal." My personal goals weren't a complete bust (which I'm very happy about), but there are definitely areas that I've got to give more attention to for…

Winter Is Coming

If you're anything like me, this phrase brings up memories of Game of Thrones in prep for the white walkers (If you don't or haven't watched GOT please do...even though the last season was a tab bit underwhelming). If one thing in our reality mimics what was on the show, it's the level of…

Surviving Virtual School 101

Back to school has been a very different experience this year. We personally chose to do the virtual academy offered by our school district for our children. Knowing that they would be home instead of the regular classroom meant we had to prep a space because the dining room table was no longer…

Your Words and Thoughts Aren't Enough

My Sunday morning routine has changed up what I do because of quarantine, but it mainly consists of having breakfast while watching a few sermons online. (Let me pause and say I can not wait to actually go back to church and see those smiling faces!) While the youngest was at…
