Hey everyone!
I had such a busy week, between watching the football game, babysitting my niece, and doing my chores around the house. I am back! I appreciate all of the love, and support. Thank you!

Thankful Thursdays #32 – February 4th, 2021
Each week, I like to think and appreciate what I am thankful for throughout the week. I encourage everyone to do the same. You don’t have to write it, or type it out, but it does help, but stop stopping whatever you are focusing on, you can take a pause to think about what you are thankful for during the week.
Here is my list.
- I am happy that my mom’s move went well. She is slowly starting to settle in her new place. I am happy for her.
- I am grateful that my mom bought me some lunch the other day, that was really nice of her.
- I have been slowly making time to jot some ideas down for my stories. I am really excited to start writing again. I have been brainstorming some cool ideas, so I am going to bring back Writing Wednesdays again! I normally write a short story, or a chapter of something I am working on.
- I am thankful for the continued love and support I am receiving from my all of my followers. Keep up with the amazing support. It makes me so happy that I can inspire so many people.
- I am glad that there were a few days where the weather was nice, which made it really enjoyable to go for a walk. I try to go out as often as I can.
Let me know what you are grateful for in the comments. 🙂
Busyness
Hey everyone!
I am so sorry for being a bit M.I.A. these past few days. I have been helping my sister, and my mom with some things. The days seemed to go by a lot faster than they usually do. Here am I trying to catch up with everything. I will definitely make more time to stay on top of my blog.
I hope everyone is doing well, and I can’t wait to get back in touch with everyone. I would love to know what everyone has been up to these past few days. Let me know in the comments.
Thank you for the continued support and love throughout my blog journey. I love it.
Road Less Travelled – Lauren Alaina
I love this song so much! I figured it is the perfect song for 2021. It’s all about trusting yourself, and the universe by doing something you wouldn’t normally do. I sort of did this year. I quit my job because I didn’t feel comfortable with the whole coronavirus pandemic, so I decided to focus on my blog, and pursue thinking of a cool idea for my novels. In hope that one day I become a bestselling author, blogger. For the most part I feel proud of myself. And I feel very fortunate enough that my boyfriend is still working for us.
I hope that this is the year we trust ourselves and the universe even more. I know that it is scary, but I think things will get better. We just have to keep the faith that they will improve.
“If you trust your rebel heart, ride it into battle
-Lauren Alaina
Don’t be afraid, take the road less traveled
Wear out your boots and kick up the gravel
Don’t be afraid, take the road less traveled on”
Daily Affirmations and Life Lessons Introduction
Hey, everyone! I woke up with this inspiration that I should write about daily affirmations and or life lessons that I have learned throughout my life. I figured that will help other people with whatever they may be going through.
Back when I first began my blog, that was one of my ideas of writing about things that I have learned that day, whether it be something I had learned from work, or just having time to myself. I am excited to do this again.
I first began my blog six years ago in May. All of my coworkers saw that I was always positive, and happy a lot. I had always had something positive to say, and I gave good advice whenever they needed it. I am very proud of myself for starting this blog. Back then I thought I was popular with getting one hundred views in a month, and now that is how many in a day. I had no idea the power my words and ideas I have on others. I am so proud of myself for all of the work that I have been into this blog.
It’s almost like if someone told me how popular my blog would have been when I first started, I don’t think I would have believed it.
Back then I blogged for a year straight, and then I unintentionally took four years off. I was just thinking about my blog just before my birthday (last year), although I had some trouble with remembering my passwords, so it took me a few days to get everything situated. I am so happy I did.
My goal is to be a low key famous blogger, who writes books about all sorts of ideas and genres.
I love being able to help others, and provide others with advice. So being able to write out daily affirmations, and talk about the things I have learned with others, I think that will be extremely helpful.
Feel free to add any insight in the comments if you would like to add more to the ideas. I would love to hear from you.
After such a difficult year, we need more positive vibes to motivate and cheer us on. I like to think that our words have the power to heal to others, and that we shouldn’t be saying anything bad to others. We have the power to make people feel better about themselves. Always remember that.
Reached My Goal For 2020
I am so happy and proud of myself!
A few months ago, I wanted to have 15,000 views as my yearly total of views. And I am so happy to report that I have reached my goal! Thank you so much for all of the love, likes, comments, and positive words. It means more than anyone will ever know.
Please continue showing your love for me and for my blog in the following year. Cheers!
Advent Calendar of Kindness 2020 Day 15
You should spend the day telling someone that you love them. Not only is it free, but this person would greatly appreciate hearing you say you love them. If you live with this person, say it to their face, if you can’t, you can message them, or write a letter.
It’s important to say this to those who you love., even if they already know that you love them.
To all of my followers, thank you for the likes and leaving kind words in the comments, just know I appreciate your love, and positive vibes. Thank you!
Thankful Thursdays #24 – December 10th, 2020
It’s hard to believe that I have been doing this for six months now. I feel like this activity has benefited me in more ways than one. I encourage everyone to express gratitude at least once a week. You don’t have to write it down, or type it out, even just thinking or talking about what you are grateful is helpful, too.
Every Thursday, I write about what I am thankful for.
Here is a list of the things I am thankful for this week.
- I am happy and appreciate the love and kindness from my followers by liking my posts, and having conversation throughout the comment section. I have gained another 100 followers in three and a half weeks, and I am now over 600 followers. I had no idea I was going to have this many followers when I first started out.
- My boyfriend and I have stopped having take out for a bit. That way we can save some more money, and eat more healthier. We have had a lot of delicious home cooked meals this week. I love cooking, so that makes me happy.
- I got to see my sister and niece today. She is part of my bubble, and our boyfriends work together, so it’s okay for us to see each other. We had a lot of fun together. My niece got her bangs cut, just beforehand. She looks extra cute.
- I got my last container from my sister’s house. I am so excited, because now I can finally go through my belongings. It makes me really proud of myself. I’ll be working through that this weekend.
- I got to play with my niece earlier tonight, she was showing me all of her toys in her room while my sister was making us dinner.
Let me know some of the things you are grateful for this week. 🙂
December Goals
So I am pretty exciting for a new month, as it means new goals that I get to think of for myself. I have already thought of goals that I would try out this month.
My boyfriend and I are going to go to work towards spending less money on luxurious items, in order to save some, and put towards paying off more of our debts. Which will be really amazing. I am look forward to that.
I have already thought of an idea that I think would make for a good novel, perhaps. I know I’m a bit late, but every November, writers are encouraged to write a novel in those 30 days. I plan on doing that, but I plan on doing that in January since I was a bit busy in November. Then once I complete it, I am going to read it and edit it, so hopefully I’ll be able to share that with you sometime in February. They say the average book has about 50,000 words, so it works out to be 1,667 words a day. Especially you are just focusing on writing your idea, and then after that you spend time dedicating to the editing process.
I would like to make more trying new recipes, because that sounds like a lot of fun.
I am also working on ideas of how I can make 2021 the best year ever! More to come with that idea.
I will also keep on blogging daily, which is always a lot of fun. I can’t’ wait to find out what your December goals are.
Day 156 of 192
This is Wednesday’s item.
This is an old day planner from 2015. I came across it in one of my containers that I had stored at my sister’s house. I looked through to it to read about it. I liked that it had these stickers for birthdays, and appointments, so I kept that in case I bought myself a calendar, or if I get one for Christmas.
It was fun reading it, because at the time I first started dating my boyfriend, so it was a nice reminder of looking back at the past.
But other than that it didn’t really have much of a purpose anymore. This was where I decided to name my tag after. When I was first made my blog five years ago, this was next to me.
