I hope you are having a great week so far!  It’s been a bit of a rough one for us, as 3/4 of my household has battled with a stomach bug…Mama is the only one yet to be stricken – and you can bet I’m praying with all my might that this germ-nado passes me by! In addition, my house is a hot mess as I find myself racing from one person to the next trying to make sure they throw up in the right place or have ice for their beverages of choice.  
Thankfully, everyone is now on the mend, but it’s times like these when that nagging little critic in my head seems to be saying: Look at that laundry pile!  Girl, you got PROBLEMS.  You can’t possibly do everything that needs to get done today.  Plus also there ain’t enough dry shampoo in the world that can take care of THAT hair today.

It just occurred to me that my inner critic sounds a little bit like Clinton on What Not To Wear.
But I digress.  If you, like me have ever heard that not-so-nice voice criticizing you, fear not.  I’ve put together a playlist to help us snap out of it and say BYE, FELICIA (or Clinton or whoever).  Put this playlist on and kiss those bad vibes goodbye!
