21 For 2021: Things I’m looking forward to!

January 1, 2021

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone! (Are you all hungover?) Well, we made it to Day 1 of a new year and I'm so happy to be posting here. It is around this time that I enjoy making lists of ideas, goals and things I want to accomplish for the year ahead. Considering the fact that 2020 was a complete dumpster fire of sorts for so many people, I'm doing things a little differently this time around. I'm leaning into hope.

In my last post, I shared my 19 goals for 2019.  I'll admit, it was a pretty ambitious list.  And while it's been keeping me accountable and providing inspiration to go after the things I want in my life, there have been a few setbacks. I shared this raw and personal moment on my instagram last week.  Not one of my finest or proudest memories but I have no regrets.  It is no . . .

My End of Summer Gratitude List

August 31, 2018

Last week’s Weight Watchers meeting talked about gratitude and whenever I’m going through a hard time, I try and remember all the good things in my life.  And with summer finally drawing to a close, I wanted to share with you a list of some of the things I am most grateful for. Adam. For as much as he loves being behind the scenes, I’m putting him at number one because he is my number one.  This summer hasn’t been easy but he has stepped up, often taking on more than his share while I . . .
