On a personal note.....

I think I have embraced my new age of 30 now, I'm over the initial fear I had about leaving my 20's. But I'm still like trying to figure out my life. I had to stop by the store on day and when I got back in the car, I just broke down. Things were just going all kinds of crazy that week. My current employer is making one too many changes and it affects my position. Plus I'm only part time for now and this job market is crazy, it's so hard trying to find something, let alone get into an interview. And I just want to be able to support my family and be stable. I'm grateful for having a roof over my head, even though I'm still at home, I have a job and clothes on my back. I've been struggling to learn patience. I'm always trying to rush everything and I need to let go of the wheel because I am not in control. Things happen for a reason and I know that things will get better, I will get where I need to be, but not on my time. I just have to keep pushing and keep myself motivated that I can cross the finish line and overcome this setback!

    Set backs are what makes us stronger as we persevere through them. I always remember a quote: "You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice that you have."
    Keep pushing on Adrea...it will all be worth it. (I give myself this same pep talk all the time when things become a little unbearable)

    Have a wonderful day xo

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over ...

On a personal note....Update on Blogging and Personal Goals

Happy Football Sunday!! I hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend and getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving!! I can't believe it is this week! I can't wait to spend time with family! I thought about giving an update to the personal and blogging goals I set for myself last year with the Resolute Beauty Blogger series. You can check out my results post  HERE!!  I completed this in May of this year so let's see how I've been doing since then. Blogging Goals 1. Attend A Blogging Event- Since then I have not attended another event. I was so happy when I did find my one event to attend. I have been keeping in contact with those bloggers I met and reading their blogs. I have been finding events but there are scheduling conflicts. I hope to find another one very soon. 2. Set A Blogging Schedule- I am still sticking to my Sunday, Thursday and every other Friday schedule. It has been really working with my hectic schedule I already have. 3. Change Up Current Style-...

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...
