This is how it goes.

I have a routine. It's obnoxious and I'm ready to change it. But, I need some freakin' DISCIPLINE. Where do I come by that? It amazes me how disciplined some people are...I just don't have it. Not with working out, not with watching what I eat, ugh. Maybe I just don't care enough? Who knows? All I know...is this is what happens pretty much every single day.

I set my alarm to wake up early and work out. (No, not 8 am as in the picture below...this is clearly stolen (courtesy of www.pinterest.com) b/c I don't even have an iphone. Anyways, I get enough sleep, so that's not the problem. A lot of mornings, my alarm goes off and I never really go back to sleep but I just love to snooze off and on and snuggle in bed. Have I mentioned I am NOT a morning person? So anyways, alarm goes off....I snooze it a couple times, all while thinking in my head...a few more minutes and then I will get up, work out, have a nice, leisurely morning. Next thing you know...I've snoozed so long I sometimes fall back into a deep sleep and DO NOT WANT TO GET OUT OF BED. I then proceed to talk myself into the fact that I have nothing planned after work, so I will definitely work out then. I mean duh...I'll do it at 6 and then have the rest of the night free.

6 pm rolls around...I'm off work and either EXHAUSTED or something always comes up. Like, happy hour! Or errands...or anything really. And then another day goes by where I don't work out. Hmmmphhh. This has GOT to stop at some point in my life.


Because until it does this is NOT what my scale says to me in the mornings.
Another day, another pound?

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one night for a date night, headed to our fav, Sal

My Pinterest inspired master bedroom makeover part one.

The BEFORE pictures. I've been itching to re-do my master bedroom for quite some time now. I am one of those people that likes to re decorate quite often...unfortunately for my bank account. Mikey's mom bought him a full queen sized bedroom suite when he graduated college, which was wonderful. It is very nice furniture and has served us well. But, I am SOOO sick of all the dark matchy-matchy look it brings. I will use this furniture again in a guest bedroom one day...but for now, it's time to retire it from my master. All of my bedding and rug I had previously...I've now had this zebra/brown/green theme for almost 4 years...so over it! Fortunately for us...my brother and SIL got a new bed...so what do we get?? Their old KING size bed!! Woohoo. I do NOT like for people to touch me when I sleep, I need my space...I've been wanting a king for so long. Even though our room isn't the biggest the king is working out okay...we aren't going to be in this h

These are the days.

Goodness gracious, I LOVE summer.  I talk it to death every year, but it is especially important to me during this season of life where the school year brings homework/schedules/strict bed times/extra curricular craziness- I appreciate the LAZY days of summer EVEN MORE. I've tried to be intentional about taking a half day here and there to soak up TIME with my babies.  Because Lord knows, they aren't babies for long.  (Yes, I'm referring to my 7 and 5 year olds as babies- #cantstopwontstop ) When we returned from our anniversary trip, we got back early on a Tuesday and used the rest of the day to spend quality family time together.  We took the kids to a local water park, this was all of our first time visiting- and we had a ball!   That same week, my girl and I dressed up and attended her very first company banquet for dance, too much fun!  Lake days with friends are sooooo good for me- we've so enjoyed many of them this summer
