Conquer Overwhelm. Live Intentionally.
Do you have a tough time setting boundaries with how much you use technology?
It’s no secret that I struggle with this myself, and is something that I shared when I talked about 6 Reasons You Need to Unplug from Technology.
This past weekend I stumbled upon an awesome infographic that confirms a lot of points I made in that post, and I wanted to share it with you all. It’s been a great reminder for me to focus on making sure I limit my technology use as much as I can. [Read more…]
Hi Friends!
I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend!
I am having a great weekend besides for some pretty bad tooth pain. I actually have a root canal scheduled for Tuesday morning that I’m slightly terrified about. I know it’s a completely routine procedure, but I have a big time fear of dentists and am getting high anxiety just thinking about it. So if you have had a positive experience with one yourself, please do leave me a comment below letting me know that I’ll be just fine 😉 I need the extra encouragement!
Tooth anxiety aside, I wanted to pop in and give you an update on the Makeover Your Mornings course that I mentioned in this post a few weeks ago. I officially completed the entire course myself and am very happy with how it’s helped me to make positive changes in my own life. I’m also sharing some special deals that are happening with the course in the next few days, and I’ll talk more about them below. [Read more…]
The hubby and I are celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary next month! Kind of hard to believe we’ve been together for 9 years and married for 3 of those already. Man does time fly…
I was brainstorming some frugal ways we could celebrate our anniversary that we would really enjoy, yet wouldn’t cost a fortune at the same time. While we would love to do a weekend trip alone somewhere, I can’t imagine leaving Little Miss behind or spending hundreds of dollars on just a weekend for the two of us.
I came up with some fun celebration ideas for us to choose from and though that I would share with you all too in case you need help brainstorming some of your own ways to celebrate anniversaries or other special occasions coming up! [Read more…]
Hi Friends!
We have a fun first on the blog today – our first guest post! My friend Ali reached out to me and wanted to share some important information about free credit reports with us. With identity theft running rampant these days, staying on top of your credit score is so crucial. I thought she had some really fantastic advice to share, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

The start of fall is so refreshing to me. As much as I love summer, there’s something about the crisp air, colorful leaves, and fun fall activities that I really look forward to.
This might be a little on the early side, but I usually like to put my fall decor up shortly after labor day weekend. By the end of August, I’m ready for some cooler weather and being able to wear sweaters and jeans on a daily basis.
I love fall decor, but I’m not the craftiest person and can’t make half of the cute things I see on Pinterest. So I tend to gravitate towards inexpensive options that require zero crafting on my part, and don’t take up a huge amount of space when I need to store them after fall is over. [Read more…]
What do your mornings look like? Do you wake up feeling rushed and stressed out?
As a natural night owl, waking up early in the mornings has never been much of a priority to me in the past. I would either wake up to rush and get started on work, or wake up to Little Miss screaming for me to come get her.
Not exactly a serene way to begin the day on a peaceful and enjoyable note.
I have been very intentional with my morning time and getting out of bed well before I need to lately though, and I’ve noticed how much it’s really helping me set myself up for a day of success and fulfillment. [Read more…]
I think that many of us place great value on receiving an education, but forget that education and learning should continue beyond just your years of schooling.
Our brains are like sponges, and they tend to thrive when we challenge them and allow them to soak up information that we expose them to.
While many of us enjoy challenging ourselves and learning new skills, I think that it’s not always feasible with everyday life to expect yourself to enroll in classes you have to attend in-person or pay thousands of dollars for. [Read more…]
I am a coffee lover through and through. I need at least my one cup of coffee every morning to function on the same level as other humans. I love reading reviews and recommendations on The Full Moon Cafe, they really help me decide what I should buy next!
I typically have another cup in the afternoon as well, sometimes there is even a third cup in there somewhere….but who’s counting?
My parents and grandparents have several cups of coffee throughout the day as well, and always have. So I think that my addiction is truly because caffeine runs through my veins 😉 .
I had a feeling that many of you may be dragging on this fine Monday morning as you start your work week, so I thought I would share with you an awesome list of 6 health benefits of drinking coffee that I found. [Read more…]
A few weeks ago I saw an infographic that depicts the top 10 regrets in life by those about to die, and I I knew that I just had to share it with you all. [Read more…]
