Hello, hello!!  I’m so excited today because this post…as in the one you are currently reading is my 100th!!   Yay! I tend to fly by the seat of my pants sometimes and I know five months ago when I started this blog my loved ones were super excited for me, but they also maybe […]

Greetings, my friends!  I hope all of you are having easy, breezy, stress-free days.  But for those of you who may be finding yourselves with a to-do list a mile long and not enough hours in the day to complete it (I hear you!), this post is for you.  It’s so easy to let stress […]

I love mornings – I’m an early bird by nature.  I love the promise of a new day and the first breath of fresh air I get to take.  But I know not all of my Besties may feel the same way, and there’s no shame in that.  But we all have to wake up […]

Welcome to another edition of Bestie Finds!  These posts are my chance to keep things a little lighter, a little more playful and fun, so I love putting them together!  This week’s self care products are all about keeping life so fresh and so clean (clean).  I’ve got the windows open over here and it […]

Almost every day, the first thing I pray in the morning is “Lord, thank you for the gift of today.”  I’m fully aware He is the Giver of this day, like all the others.  He didn’t have to gift me with it.  By His grace alone I am still here.  For a purpose.  On purpose. […]

Hello my dear Besties!  I’m sorry I’ve been MIA the past few days…you know, spring break has a way of doing that!  But not to worry, I’ll be back in full swing next week, and I’ve got lots of fun ideas for posts!   For today, I’d like to address a topic that many of […]
